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.

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.
Well, you made someone uncomfortable, so mission accomplished! :lol:

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. :eh: 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.
Thanks GIGs. :huge:

I think I found the rejection issue though: they've all been horror stories, a genre I like but don't love writing about.

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.

Sorry 1990's. Hope you feel better soon.

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.

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. ;)

Nah I'm not. I wouldn't let it out on him/her.

In short: he worships Thor.

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.

Yeah, well, they all thought Dahmer was a pretty average normal guy too...

Definitely a uh. Unique interaction.

I am now very curious to know what he thinks of the Marvel movies. :)

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...

Say you don't want to join, in a polite way. Or they will probably kidnap you and when you awaken you must battle them with a sword - in the name of Valhalla. I speak from experience. :lol:

When I got to "Kant," I was like, "Wait, Immanuel Kant wasn't a white supremacist, was he?"

When I got to "Knot," I just figured that was a philosopher I didn't know anything about.

It didn't really click until "Know."

Thanks for taking me on that little journey!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that had that as a first reaction. :)

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?

1- That's what I thought. He said they hate Loki because he "embodies gay people", so that may effect things further.

2- I pray so Zarm, trust me.

3- About the Indiana Jones thing: only shave infrequently so it may just be meant to be. :lol:
