Yeah, I use Adblock Plus and NoScript for the worst offenders (ABP Element Blocker is essential!), but then I'll occasionally want to watch a video clip in an NBA game summary or whatever. That usually means not watching it, because fuck undoing and redoing the blocking rules or switching browsers for a one-off clip.

Its fuckin hot here and it sucks. I think it was 106 yesterday. Doesn't cool down at night. Been over 100 for the last week and supposed to be over 100 for another week or so.


Really sucks.


I would just head to Tahoe or San Fran to cool off but my new wife wants me around.

It's a nice gesture, but those "Happy birthday!" posts that people put on my Facebook page are awkward

So true.

It's funny, I'm sort of a hypocrite on those. I find them awkward as hell like you do. When it's someone's birthday I always just send them a private message. And yet I have to admit I like seeing a lot of posts on my birthday.

Just started taking my antidepressant. Feel like I could throw up for a thousand years, you guys.

Was this an SSRI? I fucking hated those so bad so I switched to one that wouldn't fuck me up physically and kill my dick in the process.

Yup. Citalopram.

My dick isn't dead yet, but it's close.

Yeah, that's the one I had. I hated it so, so much. I hope it's at least taking away some of the deep lows for you. I found that its negative effects both physically and mentally just made me worse in the end. Now I did talk to a number of people who didn't feel the same way I did with it, but I had to change. I hope it's helping and if not that you can look at changing up.

Yeah, it's been a little over 3 weeks now and from what I understand it takes about 4-6 for it to really start kicking in.

I also have Xanax, which I haven't taken even once yet. I probably should start though.

I got a memory foam pillow and am trying to get used to it but overall i think it might be a winner. This is my second try with memory foam, first time I absolutely rejected it. I've always used feather. The neck and shoulder pain was getting to be too much though so I've been forcing myself to get used to it and I think it's going to stick. Definitely helps with the neck and shoulder pain. I'm a side sleeper and would stick my arm under the pillow to try to level things off leading to both my neck and that arm's shoulder hurting.

This is the one I have:

http://www.amazon.com/Sealy-Hydraluxe-Memory-Contour-Pillow/dp/B00LY8K7P0

Those reviews are iffy. The cooling part of the gel definitely works IMO so that one's bunk. The ones saying it's too hard are 'kind of' right, when you first get it it's like WTF(detroit) , this is too hard but after a day or so you get used to it and realize it molds to your head and cradles it.

I still go back and forth to my feather one sometimes but overall I 'think' the memory foam one is better for me.

Memory foam pillows are legit. I had an awful neck problem a couple of years ago that left me sore and made it hurt when I turned my head. I tried heat, ice packs, ibuprofen, immobilization; nothing worked. Then I bought a memory foam pillow and the problem went away in a week. It took some time to get used to it, since like Vinny I'd always used light pillows and the dense foam is a major shift. I haven't slept on a feather pillow since, though.

Thanks broes. I do the "put your arm" under thing too. It's also weird that I can usually sleep side, back or stomach, but the last month or so, I just wake up with my neck all jacked up. I have always used two "firm" synthetic pillows. Think I'll try this, thanks.

A second cousin of mine's stepdaughter was murdered in Detroit (her body was stuffed in a crate or some shit) and a distant cousin of mine hung himself from an overpass because he owed money to some bad dudes. Both were into drugs. Never met either, but crazy shit.

They found texts on the dude's phone and computer from people telling him either he was going to go or his whole family were. Like something straight out of a movie.

that definitely sucks

Sorry to hear that. That really does suck. T&P for the fam.

Didn't know them, but thank you. Don't know when he died, she was found a few weeks ago (http://www.fox2detroit.com/news/local-news/222450130-story)

I have a former uncle (by marriage) who was into all kinds of bad shit and eventually just disappeared.
Not sure if he was running or he was caught, but wouldn't be surprised if he died in some bizarre fashion.

Why would the seller let you take possession of the car before the $ was approved?
Was it part of a lease that you're now purchasing outright?
Is the seller tied with the bank in any way other than proximity?
Why can't you just finance the car through "our" local banks/credit unions?

Things that suck... spending too much time obsessing over the cryptic and unknown. :)

Why would the seller let you take possession of the car before the $ was approved?
They didn't, the letter they sent me was a form letter that was apparently not intended for post-sale customers. I'm guessing they had the money that day, as usual.

Is the seller tied with the bank in any way other than proximity?
Not that I can find out.

Why can't you just finance the car through "our" local banks/credit unions?
I could, and probably should have. The interest rate was better on this loan than what I was getting from local offers, but it's been a pain to deal with a long-distance lien holder. This was my first time buying a car that didn't cost under $4000, and I was too ignorant of the process to make the best decisions. Oh, well.

Placed a tech support call and they honestly just said, yeah, a bunch of people on your street are down, but not enough to come fix it right now. We can do 8 am tomorrow at your home, or on Tuesday. (!!!)

Weird that it was just fine when I was paying them $175/mo, but not when I’m paying $70.
