Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

Shit weekend, my little cousin committee suicide over a ******* boy!
Lots of other little things are bullshit too. I wish someone would knock my door looking for a fight!

A bottle of Johnnie Walker is numbing the pain, times like this it really hurts to be an exile.

That sucks mate.
Suicide and cancer are the worst!
Condolences

Rock on brother

Just sang Evie at karaoke and some people I don't know approached me and said I did "okay".
If that isn't the definition of rock on, ****ed if I know what is.

Does anyone know much about Metabox laptops? Best bang for buck I can find online, just never heard of the brand before.

So this charity do I was at was for the YWCA to raise funds for women and children who are victims of domestic violence.

Some ****ing disgraceful numbers in this country. Anna Bligh and Dame Quentin Bryce were there as they are CEO/Patron I think. About 80 tables at 10k (or less I have since learned) a table plus raffles and auctions. If they didn't raise close to a mil I would be surprised. I'm 2k lighter in the pocket after accidentally winning a silent auction item but happy to support a good cause.

If you know any men that pull this shit be a man and call them out.

I was stunned at the number of women and children suffering. Something like 1 in 3 women will suffer violence at the hands of a man in their lifetime. If that doesn't make you feel ashamed nothing will.

Don't let rock n roll excess take control of your life, you don't wanna go down that road.

I've seen it first hand with a drop kick that belted my mum around a few times when I was a teen, he ended up being the stalker type as well but it's an awful story so I won't continue.. great cause mate & glad it's getting some attention, I kinda cheer on Jimmy Bartel these days too

There some despicable, deadbeat ****s out there. Disgusting numbers, really.

Good on you for supporting the cause.

I've tried to type this a few times and deleted it too afraid to post it, but confession is good for the soul, and I've been quite open about it to people I know. However when I was younger (around 16-18) and horribly depressed I had a three year long relationship with a beautiful young girl who I was horrible to. I never laid a finger on her, but I certainly raised a fist to intimidate and raised my voice a lot. I had no control over my emotions and I was extremely attached to her and I couldn't handle so much as her spending time with her friends instead of me.

I still re-live in my mind some of the things I did, and I've apologised to her a thousand times but she will never accept an apology or forgive me, and I accept that as much as it still makes my insides churn. I was young and I loved her to pieces, but there are no excuses for what I did and I hold this in my mind as my dark secret, and it's tough for me to talk about as I'm incredibly ashamed of it. I threw myself at psychologists, anti-depressants, the lot - and made every attempt to change, and I have. I will never let anything like that be projected on another person by me or anyone else I know, ever again. The good news is, Miss Feel and I have been going strong for over 11 years and we've never so much as raised our voices at each other. I haven't lost my Male assertiveness, stubbornness or hot headedness when things aren't going my way, but I've never and will never project frustrations in the way I did years ago.

If anyone here is like the way I was, I implore you to seek help and to join movements such as white ribbon. Your anger at the world should be no one else's cross to bear.

Tbh my dad was not a great husband or father a lot of the time. My mum has been an inspiration a lot of the time, her perseverance and resistance. He reformed his ways and is now a good male role model, but that's just me. I wonder what my older brother feels like. He was chased around by dad wielding a machette once, no lie.

#justedgiethings

Dr Feel, we had a difference earlier tonight but it takes strength to come to terms with that, and I respect you for it.

At least you realised the error of your ways and have learned from your mistakes, not everyone does.

On a tangent from the depression related element of Feel's post, everyone should check out the exceptionally great pinned thread at the top of the main AFL board.

You did something wrong when you were learning how the world works, recognised your role and the results of your actions, and changed your ways. That's evolution mate.

Mrs V has worked in DV for about ten years and has some truely terrible stories. Not just people dying but the forgotten people who are condemned to terrible lives. Cycles need to be positively broken, which involves understanding your regrets. Nothing shits me more than when someone says they "have no regrets". Getting away from the x-tian guilt thing, regrets can lead to learning, empathy, and hopefully evolving.

Props to your bravery and a better life for you & your loved ones.

I'm also glad we're a supportive enough bunch to be able to open up about personal stuff that's hurting. You're a good lot. I consider this forum a collective friend.

 

[edgie]

Indeed.

Now here comes drunk posting.

I have work at 6am. Good thing they don't drunk test before I operate teh forklist.



Next song:

Anytime I need to see your face,
I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place where
your crystal mind and
Magenta feelings take up shelter
in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola
I don't need to try and explain;
I just hold on tight
And if it happens again, I might move
so slightly
To the arms and the lips and the face
of the human cannonball
That I need to, I want to

Come stand a little bit closer
Breath in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out


Which created an interesting self referencing dynamic amongst Savage Garden, the cannonball reference leading in to this:

When superstars and cannonballs are running through your head
A television freak show cops and robbers everywhere
Subway makes me nervous, people pushing me too far
I've got to break away
So take my hand now

Cause I want to live like animals
Careless and free like animals
I want to live
I want to run through the jungle
The wind in my hair and the sand at my feet

Brillance.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Teh Forklist

 

[edgie]

Anytime you want me
You can come around
But don't leave it too late
You just might find me gawn!

So Doom's multiplayer is alright, the most fun I've had with a modern shooter in very long time.
I don't really play online shooters these days (or online games in general).
The only ones I've put any time in to in the last ten years would be COD4, BC2, and BF3.

 

[edgie]

BC2.

Still have the 360 hooked up for that purpose.

My favourite.
