  • Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

    I cannot for the life of me get Baldur's Gate to not look like ass on a widescreen monitor and mods aren't helping at all.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Nevermind, I found the fix. Nvidia control panel, aspect ratio, GPU. Done. I am good to go.

    Now I just have to decide on a class, which is actually the hardest part.

      Definitely up there, right along with making sense of AD&D 2E rules. Yay low numbers sometimes!

        THAC0 is not a hard concept to grasp. I figured that shit out when I was still in middle school.

          ugh Destiny beta begins at 1 PM today (EST) but of course, I have a fucking appointment at 1:30 so I'm gonna miss out on the "rush" of people checking streams on Twitch.

          prolly just gonna be a huge waste of my time too.

            All I'm saying is that I'm equipping characters with equipment that should theoretically be bad for them and seeing numbers go up and it's disorienting as all get out. If it were just THAC0, fine, but AC itself too? That's two numbers I want to go down, though I'm not entirely sure how or why. What else do I want to go down? Who designed this gar--

            oh.

            Never mind.

                I'm not on this page complaining about anxiety, yet, so here I go.

                I'm a month into this taper and I'm down .25mg from the 1.5mg dose of Klonopin. Every time I cut the dose, I feel wretched for a week, then more normal for a week, only to cut the dose again.

                I cut the dose on Friday, felt bad over the weekend, and feel absolutely wretched, today. Even though I know I went to sleep early enough last night, I felt like shit this morning. I pretty much knew it was going to be a bad day, but what can I do? I tell myself it's good practice and soldier on.

                I guess my pet peeve is that no matter how well I know my withdrawal symptoms, they feel terrible and unmanageable all the same. I know half of that is irrational thinking, because I'm constantly managing the symptoms, but it feels differently when you're in the moment.

                  I don't envy you, but at least you're making steady progress with it, right?

                    Right, but it's hell.

                    When you're walking through hell, it's best to keep walking.

                      Only because laying down and dying won't get you anywhere anymore.

                        Well, now I know the rejection letter from Sears Holdings was bullshit. Line by line it was the exact same thing, except it hit its targets on where I applied and what for.

                        Before I had some hope they looked at it but now I know even rejection letters are automated and employers probably never look at the apps they receive.

                            I have been checking several times daily for my professor to grade the final assignment for a course that ended almost three weeks ago.

                            Today I go to check and the course has been closed out so I can't see anything, and official final grades won't be posted for two more weeks.
