It's a superpower Kuro, you have a mutant nose.  Don the mask and become The Sniffer.

What's my goddamn catchphrase?

sigh why do I even watch it.

Deathbattle. Kirby is an invincible super galactic warrior vs retarded Buu fresh out of the egg and limited to planetary-scale power.
Will we ever get a fair comparison from those guys or will the continue to troll people for correction based site hits?

Friend messages me a screenshot of my ex-fianceƩ on Tinder. I had previously told him that i did not care if he saw her and didn't want to know.

Not that i didn't know this was going to happen, but, yeah, dick move on his part.

To be totally fair, he probably forgot what i said and thought i'd want to know. He cyber-stalked his ex-girlfriend during multiple of his breakups and obsessively wanted to know her every move, torturing himself with the knowledge that she was sleeping with multiple guys and liking them much more than him.

I NEVER understood why the fuck he did that, but he seems to assume that everyone else also want to know everything about their breakups.

No, man, i don't - thanks. I'm already doing whatever i can to get over her, and i don't need reminders that she's an attractive female that can get as much dick as she wants, while i need to outperform myself every single time to even land a girl as attractive as she was.

Nevermind the fact that i'm not (very) happy with the girl i'm (temporarily) with, but am sticking with her anyway to steer off loneliness. Yes, i'm very much aware this is a totally dick move. Karma will probably come and bite my in the butt later. I just can't bear to be alone at this point in time. Again, i'm very much aware that this is a completely pathological hardcore co-dependency shit, and that i'm basically incapable of seeing myself as "worthy" unless i'm with an attractive female long-term, or am getting a bunch of attractive females short term.

Doesn't help that when you're single, it seems that the world is suddenly filled with attractive females... (I know it's not. Just that my standards before were colored by her beauty, and there aren't that many chicks that grab a guys attention when he's in love with an attractive female... but as soon as he's single, wooow, now those less-than-attractive females are looking pretty good)

*Sigh* It was bound to happen sooner or later.

Still, I know there are at least a few people on the boards who have a copy.

If you click on the android symbol, it takes you to a page where you can download the SQLITE archive.

Then you just need to know some SQL to find whatever you are searching for.

Still, sad...

I don't even live in the US and i'm mad.

What's up with all these stories that have been appearing on the media lately about people being dragged to out-of-insurance hospitals and billed 6 figures? How can that be even allowed to happen?

It just seems completely and utterly unfair that someone who's completely unable to even make a decision to be dragged to a private hospital, treated, and then being shown the bill without having any say in the matter. Doubly so when they *do* have insurance, and despite that, are dragged to a hospital which they don't have coverage for.

That's enough to turn someone into a killer FFS.

The US isn't fair, we're capitalists.  There's a reason the phrase 'get rich or die trying' resonates so well here.  It's because thats what a great deal of people do.  Remember also the bulk of our ancestors were criminals, sociopaths, and blind religious fanatics.  We aren't about fair.  Were more "All for one, and I hope it's me".

But here's what i don't get... If i do have insurance, shouldn't i be taken somewhere my insurance covers? Who makes this sort of decisions? If i'm unconscious and i do have insurance (assuming i have the proper documentation in my person), how am i liable for a decision that wasn't mine to make, given that i took the proper precautions?

It simply boggles my mind. I don't see any way someone should be held accountable for something like this. This shit's unreal.
