I've run over my headphones at least a few dozen times, how do you sever the cord?
perhaps the wheels were pretty narrow, not distributing the weight as much
[editline]3rd June 2016[/editline]
rather the wheel contact width; one of those weird spherical wheels would have point-contact and be sure to fuck it up

Cord was tied up withing the wheel barrings, and when I rolled back, it snapped it in between them.
In other words, I'm too dim to watch what the fuck I'm doing.
if you've got paypal i'll chip in 10$ to a headphone fund, provided that two/three other users in this chat also state the intent to do the same
if not, you could alternatively start an amazon wishlist and some trustworthy paypal person here take the 20/30$ from others to then buy it for you through that (amazon wishlists don't let the gift-giver know the address the product will be shipped to)
Thanks, but there's no need to do that. I've already ordered another one off Amazon. No one needs to be spending any more money on me.

I'll be #2, it's the least I can do for such a good friend
Omg you guys are so sweet you really REALLY don't have to do anything ;-;
I've been feeling so frustrated lately because I've been so lost as to what to do with myself. I thought I had my whole life planned out and ready to go but about a year ago I had a change of heart and suddenly everything crashed and burned. I had spent two years living in NYC and I loved every second of it. Now living back in the suburbs in my childhood home has taken some readjusting to. It took some time to reestablish old friendships here but even then I was never really that close with them. My bffs in NYC all had to go their own ways and are now scattered far around the country. We still talk constantly but it's not the same as being around them and feeling their warmth and love. I seem to have achieved a level of apathy with near everything in my life. Things used to hit me like a truck and I would develop a level of monomania about them. I used to be super into game design and photography and was doing things with them constantly. Now I'm just bored with them and even though I'm trying everything under the sun nothing is hitting me with the level of passion that I used to feel about things. Even though I've tried and built so many new things it still feels as if I've done nothing at all. I've been asking myself what do I feel I'd need to feel fulfilled in life and every time my mind is completely blank. I'm hoping doing all sorts of things and trying to improve myself will help me out eventually. I must be improving as I feel better now than I used to. During the winter I would hysterically sob everyday during my hour long drive home from work, even on the good days. At least now I wake up and feel OK, but I miss feeling truly happy. Just have to work on myself one step at a time.
That was a much longer blurb than I thought, just wanted to get stuff off my chest.

Moving takes a lot of readjusting and time to get used to. But if you go out enough, try hard enough to meet new people, and try new things that didnt catch your eye much before things will get much better soon.
[editline]3rd June 2016[/editline]
Speaking of moving. [U]I'm moving to Washington state on July 4th[/U]! (from minnesota)
This is my first time ever moving out on my own with friends I haven't met in person. I'm super excited because me and this friend have been talking about it since we basically first met, my roommate there was my first ever e-bf who helped solidify my sexuality 8 years ago and we're still just as close as ever, even if our interests have somewhat spread apart. Me and him plan to go to a buncha furcons and I'm going to help him get a job that he's been so lazy on getting for the past few years.
Its gonna be DOPE~! I cant wait to make new friends. :D

That looks super fancy
Not enough monster stickers 2/10
I need to get a proper desk mic with a pop filter.
So people can stop hearing me spit directly into it.
My friends keep nagging me to buy a mic that isn't a $12 Plantronics desk mic I bought almost 10 years ago
It works, the audio quality is just highly dependent on the quality of your sound card :v:
[editline]4th June 2016[/editline]
I also use speakers so they hate me for that, even though I use push to talk
oh man I haven't posted a picture of my desk in yeaaaars
it's so much cleaner now esp. after I moved so I just bought a new $50 desk that is sleek and black wood

excuse my shitty phone picture taking skills
post your desk go
[QUOTE=Mysterious;50451814]So I just ran my chair over my headset cord and completely severed it. It was a gift from one of my friends who was nice enough to buy it AND ship it to me for my birthday. I bet he's gonna be fucking ecstatic to hear how he wasted $30 dollars on a fucking dipshit who can't watch where the fuck he's going in his chair.
This week has been shit.[/QUOTE]
Aw, that sucks.
I literally have to tuck the cords into my pants to prevent that from happening to me, had the mic/headphones for the past like, three years. Friend also bought and shipped them to me. :v:

that is genius
I just found if I stopped using the extender since my tower was right by my left thigh it was long enough to reach my head but not long enough to go below my legs anyway, but that is genius if you have to have the longer cable
Desk posts?
Behold, a shitty low quality image of my shitty low quality (and horribly crowded) desk!

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;50454496]Don't you just love it when you think about one particular person in your head and you can't sleep cause of it?

It's better when you can't stop dreaming about someone, which is weird because you almost never dream about specific people, and you can't see or talk to them for various reasons
I don't dream about romance any more. I'm too worried that if I do I'll dream of a certain person and wake up crying.
Romantic dreams are for nerds
nothing like finding your ex-boss on Grindr and not being able to tell your co-workers because you don't want them to know you're gay
either way any sexual desire I was planning on having this upcoming week jumped right out the window

why don't you want them to know you're gay? are they blatantly homophobic (like my dad), or...?
fucking staruday nights always ripping me apart
[QUOTE=Arbys Watcher;50456920]why don't you want them to know you're gay? are they blatantly homophobic (like my dad), or...?[/QUOTE]
I'm out to everyone in my personal life but I don't tell my co-workers because
1. you can still legally be fired for being gay in my shitty-ass state
2. I really get along with my (straight male) co-worker and every time I tell a straight guy I'm gay he always starts acting like a dick towards me, so I'd just rather not tell him at all
If I end up coming out at work then so be it, I just think it's much less of a hassle to keep my private life and work life separate
