Bar wisdom and other things
17 years ago
One thing I have learned about being a bouncer so far: If you don't already hate people, you're going to start. Fortunately, however, I already hate people and think they are chumps, so it's not too much of an issue. Had numerous people trying to force their way into the bar after it was closed and getting mad at me and the other guy watching the door. One of them tried to metaphorically wave his law major at us and say that we couldn't legally push him back out of the bar, though it was plenty fine for him to try and force his way past us. When I was out watching the beer gardens, some random guy came up and started trying to pick a fight with some of the patrons too.
Bar Wisdom: Wisdom from the writing on the wall of State Street Brats
1) "It is what it is"
Truer words have never been spoken.
2) "Things are more like they are now than they ever have been before"
Again, that's pretty darn true
3) "Unless you're the lead dog, the view never changes"
Pretty self explanatory.
4) "This too shall pass"
The world has been turning for hundreds of billions of years, and shows no indications of stopping.
More will come eventually when I can remember other signs.
TF2 stuff
As much fun as this game can be (now that I've actually started to like it, due to finally starting to get back into the habit of gaming, something life has been refusing to let me do properly for the past few years), it can be utterly infuriating too. When it isn't freezing at start-up or after loading a map, it's inexplicably lagging on my ~$1700 gaming laptop. Beyond that, I randomly will just have days or times that I utterly suck, which pisses me off immensely, since normally video games are one of the few things I'm truly good at, though maybe that's just wishful thinking back to when I was actually able to game occasionally and still had my skills up.
Other stuff
Whenever I try to type replies or just in any kind of internet form, my laptop seems to slow down with what it can feel of me typing, which is highly annoying.
Also, after recent psychoanalysis, I've been told that I have social anxiety and dissociative tendancies, which translates to "I don't like interacting with people, particularly in groups, and I've separated myself from my emotions". Nothing like psychoanalysis to point out that everything about you is a mental disorder that should be fixed.
Also, Calculus sucks.

"This too shall pass" is exactly what I keep reminding myself, and have been for the last three months.. >_<
