The Small Rants Thread VIII: Now more bitchin' than ever.

[Amechra]

You fools!

I was born with a full head of hair! I first wore a full beard at the age of 15, after 3 years of sick muttonchops.

I take after my maternal grandmother's side of the family, where the men are stout and hairy.

I may actually be a dwarf.

But I won't tell.

[SolEiji]

I believe this is relevant to the discussion.

Jeez, you really ARE my clone.  Course I've been growing my hair out so I look a bit different from "normal".

[Amechra]

Clearly you are clones of each-other.

Clearly.

[Libertad]

Lesson learned: Don't grow your facial hair too long when it's summertime in the South.

Fucking Malware . . .

Been staying at my Dad's, with the kids, visiting. We went for a walk around the field behind his house today... and I found like 10 fucking deer ticks on us... with a couple bitten in on me, and one bitten in on the baby... Hoping none of us comes down with Lyme's disease...

It takes a while to show.  Make a note of where the bites were.  If a red ring forms around them, or especially if you get a rash, head to the doc.  If it makes you feel better it's hard for the disease to transmit.

Ouch !
Hope it turns out OK.

Found one bit in on the 6 year old today. So we've all been bitten.

Dad says he and my brother have both been bitten multiple times and never caught it, but I also know two people personally that have (back home, though). So... I'll keep watching for signs and symptoms... Just what I need, more shit to worry about...

[Kuroimaken]

It'll be fine, trust me.

Either that or whatever demon's responsible for insects in Hell has a date with my fist.

I know some vets you want me to ask their advice?  They deal with ticks a lot.

[Nanshork]

Tonight is going to be an emotionally unpleasant night and I'm choosing to put myself in this situation.

Ugh.

Ugh.

Hang in there. Anything we can do to help?

Nope.  I'm leaving work early to go give emotional support to an ex that I'm still in love with but will never be with.

[Amechra]

I feel for you, man.

I pray for the limerence to fade to comfort and light affection.

Now if your sh!t comes back with Lyme disease ... you'll have another little miracle on your hands.

Don't get fooled by Bush again.

_{wow , that was literary-ly beautiful.}

[awaken_D_M_golem]

2 young women.

If I started listing things about them,
you'd think I was talking about 1 woman
but there's 2 of them.  Everything lines up.
Everything ... including
the red/purple partial hair dye + job + cut.

The one is taller than me even with the slouch.
The other is the shortest normal non-medical dwarf I've ever seen.
Let's say 6'6" (2 meters) and 4'2" (1.3 meters).
They're both cute ...
<cue music>  I think you're in trouble , du-du-duu-du-u-u.
