worse: promoted until you're forced into a position you can't fulfill.

Nah, that's when you have to kick your shit up another notch.

On another note, I have a terrible habit of going on amazon, looking up books/cds/movies I love, and reading all the 1 star reviews. It makes me so angry. I don't know why I do it.

I do the same thing :facepalm:

For me it's just an instantaneous reaction of "This motherfucker hates [insert book/cd/movie]?! I demand a reason for this! :grumpy: "

Maybe this shouldn't bother me but when I send someone an e-mail, don't call me back. E-mail me back.

If I sent an e-mail it usually means 2 things.
1. It isn't that urgent
2. I need your repsonse in writing

I'm 22 and my teeth are in terrible condition. Of course I'm partly to blame for that, but my dad's teeth are basically made of rice paper so I think genetics is a factor too...

Currently sharpening my masochistic edge for a dentist appointment sometime. What better display of S&M in its purest state than a trip to the dentist? Stuck in that chair, terrifying instruments around you, an unseen drill only a few feet away at all times...TRAPPED, UNABLE TO MOVE FROM THAT CHAIR WITH THE ASSISTANT'S BOOBS BRUSHING PAST YOUR FACE ALL THE TIME?! THEY'RE ALWAYS FINE, YOU KNOW THAT AS WELL AS I!

DENTAL APPOINTMENTS ARE HOT

That's what I'll tell myself anyway, because dentists scare me.

When I was a kid my dentist had an N64 (perpetually playing Wave Race or Mario), a Jurassic Park pinball machine, and a Road Runner arcade game. And I wasn't allowed to have video games as a kid. Dentist appointments were awesome.

Received a letter from my tax advisor. Apparently there was something wrong with my wife's money and thus we not only didn't rightfully get the 400€ I spent four months ago - NO! We also now have to pay 4000€ (that's four thousand, no mistake there) in taxes for 2009! AND that's not taking 2010 into the equation!


I a doomed! I am trying to hold it off, but there might be a huge b/s/t thread coming at you.

well, so much for my complaint yesterday--after shuttling between two governmental agency offices fifteen miles apart trying to settle a seemingly insoluble problem--that "if i'm going to have to put up with all this bureaucratic bullshit why can't i just live in Germany and not have to deal with American social disorder?"
