Thanks really appreciated, though I feel I'm not exactly out of the woods as yesterday I was a bit better then it came back at night though I admit the ache in my stomach is gone so that should be a sign I should be better soon enough.Maritonic wrote:Edit: I totally read your post too fast hahahaha.

Re: What ruined your day?
Well, you made someone uncomfortable, so mission accomplished!eabaker wrote: I'd say "too weird for a weird fiction magazine" is an achievement in its own right, and you should take some pride in that!
I was briefly involved in a web series called "Make Your Friends Uncomfortable," and a sketch a friend and I wrote was rejected by the producer because it made her too uncomfortable.
But yeah, I may just need to make my own plaque, especially since one of the accepted stories was about a woman who eats a fish that turns her into a lizard-person who transcends the physical realm. Mine was an open-ended story about a group of lobster fishermen who wind up lost in a deserted and seemingly unnatural part of the ocean.

If she can make it, you will too.
I think I found the rejection issue though: they've all been horror stories, a genre I like but don't love writing about.

Re: What ruined your day?
Skreeonking bus driver should be fired. I waited fifteen minutes at the bus stop since I had an dentist appointment now I had to reschedule it...
Oh and I'm still under the weather. This bug or flu whatever keeps coming and going. Gonna try fasting myself to see if that works because my stomach isn't aching for the time being.

As for me, a chap I've talked to for a while at school just invited me to join his cult.

Thanks very appreciated. Maybe I was too harsh on the bus driver so I take back what I said about him/her being fired as they could've been going through some trouble. Heat of the moment considering how I'm feeling right now.Dawsbfiremind wrote:Sorry 1990's. Hope you feel better soon.

Re: What ruined your day?
There's a verse in the Bible, "No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man." I would suggest that the same applies here; there is something about another human being behind the wheel of a vehicle that has the universal ability to generator an irrational, almost-homicidal rage at the slightest provocation; it's just a skill that all human beings seem to have. I sincerely doubt you are anywhere near alone in having a moment of overly-harsh rage at a fellow driver... or a bus driver in specific.GodzillaFan1990's wrote:Thanks very appreciated.

He said in one of the towns nearby there's a group called the "Odin Brotherhood" who keep the "honorable way of the Viking" alive. He also mentioned an initiation, special rituals, and Norse descended Caucasian members only (as he explained, they were supposedly the "peak of human evolution" and "destined to bring Valhalla"). The brotherhood he was a part of apparently worships Thor, explaining the little carved hammer thing he wears around his neck.
It just caught me by surprise. He had seemed to be an average guy who liked random conversation up until he sprung this on me. And trust me, the dude wasn't joking.

Fortunate for you, you've got a rather more-comprehensive, historically-existent, actually-the-Son-of-the-Ruler-of-all-creation savior to focus on instead. Mayhaps one day, he'll be the one accepting an invitation instead...

It didn't really click until "Know."

Actually, not to invoke a certain well-known internet rule... but weren't trappings of Norse mythology, kind of twisted around, and using wagnerianus overtones, along with caucasian purity, kind of a basis for the philosophy of a certain German military/political force that tended to have frequent clashes with a well-known Fedora-wearing archaeologist?
...in other words, the Thugee Cult?
