My day

[deliciousV]

earlier today/yesterday I posted a question about IP masking and what-not due to a particularly nasty phone call from my ISP,then my wife and I left our house to run some errands, this is what happened next, karma , or ISP attack,? you be the judge. Mine is the truck on its side. Everyone is OK, We were T-boned by a car going about 50 right into my door.

I'm glad everyone is OK. What kind of car is that? If he was really going 50, I'd think he'd be more crushed. BTW... You're lucky the same thing didn't happen 20 years ago. Pickup trucks were death traps when T boned, unless it was a particularly large one, back then.

[spoon]

Wow the truck took the hit well if it was really 50 or close! Glad everyone is doing well, and it looks like the truck was much higher than the car which probably saved you a LOT of pain or more. It looks as though it wedged under mostly and flipped you guys and dispersed a ton of energy that way.

Look at this as good karma if you ask me. You walked away from what could have been REAL bad and insurance will cover the rest.

Piggly Wiggly ruled in small towns back in the 70's - last one is saw was at Hilton Head in SC. I bought a t-shirt.

If this thread hasn't cheered you up, I don't know what will!

[deliciousV]

I'm cheered, and we feel very lucky. I also feel sore, like I got hit by a car or something.

[StanUpshaw]

Sue and use your winnings to buy the bestest seedbox ever.

[Kris10]

Glad everyone was ok.

You had a sweet truck... I wonder what the passenger side looks like all scratched up now.

[PapaBear]

I bet the other guy feels like he hit a truck.

Darfur war orphans live absolutely horrible lives and I have nothing but sympathy for them. As soon as I have enough disposable money, I intend to give to Save Darfur (or another charity- I'll have to do some research and see which ones actually help). However, the fact that Darfur war orphans are in bad shape doesn't mean I shouldn't vent about this.

I'm gonna lump a few stories into this thread, since none of them are particularly E/N worthy on their own. However, taken in combination, it would appear that the universe quite enjoys shitting all over me.

Introducing Sydney

Alright, my friend Sean and I, we're both juniors in high school and pretty fucking goony. We're both film geeks and gamers, and I'm a tabletop games sperglord on top of that. As such, we don't really have a lot of other friends, and girlfriends are generally out of the question.

As such, I should have been like when he found a chick in his Japanese class by the name of Sydney who was somewhat attractive and liked him a lot. The fact that she was schizophrenic, a former drug addict, and had a boyfriend up in Denton, TX by the name of Adam who was a sophomore in college should have been an even larger red flag, and by that I mean I should have fucking hit Sean for even considering dating her.

But no. I was a dumbass, and not only did I not object to Sean attempting to date her, I also became attracted to her.

This went on for a while, Sean and Sydney gradually getting closer, until bam, right the fuck out of nowhere Sean gets an odd facebook message from Adam. It was a lengthy, politely worded letter telling Sean to quit stalking Sydney.

Naturally, both Sean and I were like , since he and I both knew damn well that Sydney had initiated pretty much everything between them. Sean then decided to ask Sydney what in the unholy fuck was going on.

Both he and I would come to regret this. As it turns out, some of Sydney's friends noticed that Sean and Sydney were getting close, and decided to inform Adam of this. Adam got angry at Sydney, who somehow managed to convince him that Sean and I were stalking him. To further her story, she also decided to tell this to essentially all of her friends.

I promptly shat myself, since the majority of my friends that aren't Sean are in her social group. Fortunately, no one got sucked in by her bullshit, or at least as far as I could tell they didn't. I told a few particularly important people what was going on and that Sydney was full of shit, just to make sure... that came right back and bit me in the ass hard later on, but that comes later in another story.

Mini Fun Facts:

- People in my area think that Sydney is at least moderately attractive, whereas people not in my area (i.e. my friends from when I lived in Louisiana) think she's uglier than sin. This is pretty goddamn unsettling in my opinion.

- One of the people I told that Sydney was full of shit, started sending me incomprehensible facebook messages shortly afterwards about how I was behaving worse than a little girl and how Sean is a gigantic manwhore who's tried to sleep with every girl at the school (). Said person has no memory of ever sending these messages and actually claims to have outright ignored my messages. I have a hunch Sydney got her grubby bitch-claws on the person's phone at school and sent me the messages, but I'm not totally sure.

- Looking back, there were a lot of hints even aside from the red flags I mentioned in the story. Such as trying to convince me to murder one of her exes in cold blood, mentioning that she thought Sean would try to rape her if she got him drunk, and planting weed on Adam to get him arrested at one point and not even fucking remembering why she did it. In hindsight I was pretty goddamn slow on the uptake.

More related stories coming up later. Yes, I realize this is just high school bullshit, but fuck it, I feel like venting, E/N is for venting, and this lets me brush up on my writing a bit. Plus, Sydney's fairly... uh, exceptional, to say the least, both in persistence and in batshit insanity, as will be seen in future posts.

Ditch the chick - enough said :wallbash:

thats kinda misogynistic

[CountryBob]

I had to look up that word - funny that you could think that is what I mean. I dont understand why some people keep hanging on/around with others that are disfunctional, violent, and promote a lot of negative vibes.

I cut those people out of my life and only hang with fun, positive influences.
It so much easier to enjoy the view.

to assume it is the girl's fault in the relationship and that i should "dump that crazy bitch", is actually quite misogynistic. I may be the problem & need to step back and reexamine the way I treat our relationship.

[CountryBob]

Agree - always look in the mirror first and if you can honestly say that you are not the problem, then look externally.
