Of course I'm not. I really don't see why everyone has such a problem figuring out Feba is a girl's name, it's not hard; it seems kind of obvious to me.

But I mean, whatcha gonna do?

Also, long fucking day today; also WHY THE HELL ARE MY SHOES COMING UNTIED EVERY KILOMETER ALL OF A SUDDEN? And just when I finally get to the station and hope I can have a normal commute back to the my-feet-stop-hurting-and-there's-AC-place, a group of middle school students floods in, probably the first bus or two going home for the day. I wind up standing next to three, one of whom is constantly falling over, yet apparently refuses to grab one of the many, many handles. A couple of times my arm instinctively goes out to stop her, while she digs in to her friend's arm to the point of giving it some kind of Native American burn. Finally some people move at a stop, so I try to move forward a bit, but no, she keeps falling into me; at one point I put my hands behind her shoulders and this lady shot me a look. I just looked back with the "yeah, I'm pretty sick of this too" look and hoped that was cross-cultural. Finally my station, so of course they have to get off ahead of me. I was rushing to make my connection, so I just walked past them, turned quickly, and told her to be careful. Totally worth the hassle for the dumbfounded looks on their faces, though.

I almost hope I see her falling over again just so I can go "What did I tell you?"

I knew you were a girl by the name and bird-woman avatar, but they were saying "he." xD

Your story sounds like the average commute in Japan... Oh so fun. At least you weren't on one of the trains where the people poke you in with sticks.

Feba is not a girl. Or he would have corrected me on that years ago. He likes to correct me.

He also likes seeing people stumble around with wrong ideas about him.

That line over there. *points* waiting to pod him the moment he becomes immortal is no coincidence.

My impression is that Feba is some entity that simply cannot have a gender applied to it.

I believe Feba is not human and of a species that has neither male or female.

the annoyance reflected on Feba's face.

Reflecting annoyance while in the Glorious Empire of Japan is simply NG. They call it "Facecrime".

The cute school uniforms

...anyway, their uniform belongs to the middle school attached to my college. It's pretty distinctive.

Right after Feba got off the bus, the school girls revealed giant strap-ons beneath their school-girl dresses,

It was a train, and they pulled them out of their bags. Come on Dak, keep things believable.

He likes to correct me.

I just let it slide because the gay jokes are so much fun.

In the butt!

And defiantly at least one SQUEE.

EDIT: No Ray, only the SQUEE.

Squee?

No, cid just agrees with me because he knows what's good for him.

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Actually, change that. Fuck my life. Seriously.

My car insurance was raised 80 bucks a month because I moved?!?!?! What the FUCK!?!?! I could barely afford it to begin with - I'm already paying more in insurance a year than the truck is even worth. The only fucking reason it's insured AT ALL is because it's illegal to drive it otherwise. Because you know what happens if I wreck it? I'm going to junk it, because it's worth almost nothing. But, NOOOOOOOO big bad government says I need insurance for my clunker that could fall apart at literally any second, and meanwhile, now that my insurance has been raised, I'm paying TWICE what it's worth in insurance premiums per year. FUCK YEAH AMERICA.

Okay, universe, I'm bent over, anything else wanna fuck me today?

IN A WORLD WHERE AUTO-INSURANCE IS THERE TO PROTECT YOU....

hint, it's actually supposed to cover damages when you crash into shit. Not that it's not stupid, but seriously seriously.

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Actually I'm hoping at this point that if I get into an accident it just kills me. Because it's cheaper to die these days. My friends can burn me and throw me in the bay, that's cool.

I mean I really do get why insurance is required, I just hate it because the truck is worth so little at this point that it seems like such a waste. I've got the bare minimum coverage and I'm still getting fucked. I mean damn, maybe if it were a bit more in proportion to what the truck was worth I could see it, but paying more a year than it's worth? That just doesn't seem right.

I will have to call them. Just ... not now. I'm far too exhausted and angry to do it tonight, I will probably bite some poor call center minimum-wager's head off, and I know how much that sucks.

Well today was my last day of work and I packed up my shit and left, just the boss left now and I have to wait a month for my redundancy money. Took me out for an awkward farewell lunch at a local pub. Come home after visiting friend in hospital to my flatmates gf telling me "By the way we've seen a hosue and are moving out soon" to which she walks upstairs to their bedroom and i havn't seen them since.

I agree with aksannyi life is fucking shit at the moment. Job centre tomorrow to be treated like a child and told how worthless you are by some minimum wage prick who doesn;t care if you put effort into finding work, they just enjoy their "superior" position of being able to cotnrol how much money the state will pay you.

I mean I really do get why insurance is required, I just hate it because the truck is worth so little at this point that it seems like something entirely unrelated to why insurance is required.

Oh, Yanni. You and your failure to grasp concepts.


Also, if it makes you guys feel better, Feba's life is just going superbly.
