I just got in from work at 2 in the morning and this is what I find:



Walls leaking and cracking all across the archway over my kitchen. Apparently a pipe is leaking in the wall.

Landlord! Get over here and fix this!

Reminds me of when I turned around from my computer and discovered my carpet was turning into swampland.  Gutters were backed up/leaking during a real heavy storm and it somehow crept between the floors of my dorm building.  It's surprising how much control you want over the amount of water you have in your life...Also surprising just how much you can make the RA and public safety scramble when you mention "yeah, there's water in my house".

Best of luck with the landlord.

Crying for hours with no real reason just because of messed up brain chemistry, i hate this...
The most common accident is the one noone expects.

Midnight Breeze

Reckless drivers getting all butthurt over getting much-deserved traffic tickets and then going on a spiel about how cops should be "solving real crime" instead of giving traffic fines.

News flash - reckless driving IS a real crime. It's a serious threat to the safety of innocent motorists. Take a look at the auto-accident death toll some time.

As a motorist, I consider reckless and inconsiderate drivers to be a far greater threat to my life and limb than thieves and muggers. I have been robbed at knifepoint before - but only once, 9 years ago. Reckless drivers pose a threat to me almost every single day.

And all I'm waiting for is for Nintendo to actually bloody put out an Animal Crossing game for the Wii U(the stupid Amiibo Festival is not an Animal Crossing game, no matter what is said to the contrary).

So I found a new job that claimed to be really good. Turns out it's just a big pyramid scheme.
On one end, my friend who recruited me there is pushing me to stay and try and go through with it, but on the other hand, everybody else is telling me to get out of there.
I'm desperate for money right now, but I don't want to work in a place where I could be scammed. This is all so confusing and frustrating.

When other people pee in the shower! >:O

My boss who gave me a promotion quit. That was really out of left field.

"Alright, I'm choosing you for this promotion. I'm sticking my neck out for you so don't let me down. By the way I'm putting in my two weeks, see you later."

Well, with him gone I no longer owe allegiance to anyone at my employer. I had planned to stick around for a year for his sake but I guess I don't have to worry about that. As soon as I get an offer from an employer who's willing to pay me more, I'm out.

This is kinda old but just cause of it i fear it might happen again,

those moments someone wants to hang out with you outside but didn't make any plans on what to do, i mean if you wanna hang out outside at least make some fun plans but if not lets just hang out with each other at home, at least then we can just play video games and watch movies and eat whatever we got in the fridge lol

People who don't understand the differences between "their" "there" and "they're"(and similar grammatical problems). It's time to bloody grow up, and learn to talk and write correctly.

Hmmm.. Depends on where you live, but you could go walking around.
I've wandered around small patches of woods with one of my friends before.
My mom said that when she was a teenager, she and her friends walked through one of those channels that catches a ton of rain water, trying to see where they'd end up. I've always wanted to do that. I don't mean rain gutters, I mean the deep channels made of cement and stuff that have some sections open due to where they are. I dunno if other places have them or not.

"(Ticktock, time is running out) What are you doing now?
I don't know where you are, don't even know your name.
They think I'm crazy, my heartbeat goes up..."

I'm a machinist apprentice and like my mentor I cannot stand when maintenance guys go using our stuff and not put it back or get it damaged.

i still don't understand how it hurts anybody, not to mention that its majorly difficult for me no matter how much older i get, besides personally i'd assume the older someone gets the more ability to let things go would be present instead of holding on to something like grammar things that hardly harm anyone ono

There was a small forest area at my old house but not where i'm at, at the moment, i'm just really scared about making friends outside still cause of that one simple thing, i mean i don't want those awkward moments hanging out outside because there was noting to do, besides i still don't like going outside by myself unless i have a certain thing to do, going outside just for the sake of going outside sounds so lame and REALLY awkward

Disney Channel has this commercial for something called "Funentines" and i really love the song but can't seem to find info on it anywhere, even after googling the lyrics and the Disney Commercial DD:

Posting a Lenny face on a valve server should be an instant VAC ban. Would improve the quality of the servers 2000%.

Grammar is an important element to our society, something that one must have a basic grasp of. I'm not trying to insult anyone, but it truly does anger me, especially when one doesn't even try to use the right terminology.

I'm a redneck and I may not be THE most grammatically correct. But yeah I kinda get perturbed when I see there, their, and they're misused among other things.

Dude, wasn't the release date out ages ago?
What makes your decision worse is that Fates is in two versions with significant differences between them.
