being friendly with the neighbours
mrsquiggle: our showroom/studio shares a common kitchen area with the store next door and has access to both. The store next door sells everything to do with knitting, crochet, yarn and that sort of crafty stuff. I guess you could say the ladies who run the place are of ‘middle age’ or older and they’re always super friendly. Today, when in the kitchen, I went to make a coffee but had no sugar....

Miss Guided
Honey, I’m home! Have just spent the last 4 hours @ work (after hours) helping a co-worker write her application to QTAC for admission into a QUT course. This sparked an interest for me because I will have to undergo the same rigorous application at some point in the distant, very distant, future. In the end I commandeered the essay and re-wrote the majority of the paragraphs. It...

Better late than never...
I am currently feeling slightly guilty about ghosts from my past. Ghosts whose soul crushing break ups, anxiety and hang ups I discounted as childish ploys for attention, or forced attempts to suffer for their art. I recall their astonishment each time I would bounce back from a difficult situation. The resilience of my heart was at odds with the vulnerability of hers. Difficult situations for...

eileen says: hi
resolve says: hey

eileen says: hi how are you today?
resolve says: tired i guess
eileen says: my name is paris I'm doing great today I'm 21 yrs old how old are you?
resolve says: you're a spambot aren't you
eileen says: listen hun, I am just about to start my webcam show with jen, come chat me there in my chat room? We can cyber, I will get naked if u do..lol!
resolve says: turing test fail
sigh
eileen says: I can show u how to watch free if u promise not to tell anyone else how to do it???PLEASE
resolve says: this is ridiculous
i feel like someone is actually punching my brain right now
eileen says: well since its free the law that u gotta be 18 (nudity involved), u have to sign up with a credit card for age verification! BUT .. Once you are inside, just clikc on "Webcams" let me know what name you use to sign in with so I know it is you babe! [URL REMOVED] fill out the bottom of the page then fill out the next page as well and u can see me live for free!
resolve says: SIGH
this doesn't even make any sense
eileen says: Please dont mention anything about that in the chatroom once u get in ok?
resolve says: surely this doesn't work on anyone?
eileen says: OH SHIT.. k I am late to start my show, I gotta get off msn...I will see ya inside my chatroom babe.. remember not to mention that I am upgrading u for free... You can use your msn name to sign in so i know it is you..
resolve says: ive had pets that have taken longer to fail the turing test than you
eileen says: brb soon this is where i got those free movies [URL REMOVED]
resolve says: -_-
Traumateddy says: People ARE actually desperate enough to fall for this. We have a customer who consistently racks up hundreds of dollars worth of Premium SMS charges for chat services. We can see the transcripts. It is an automated service, and only has about 5 questions before it goes back to the start, and yet this guy will have protracted conversations with it, where he oscillates between "You are a computer, you are ripping me off!", "Naww, don't be like that baby", and "I want to ram my cock down your throat".
This man also got a refund for thousands of dollars for a 'false advertising' complaint- he had racked up on one PSMS service because it was called 'Text for Sex', and he didn't get any sex out of it. Have you ever tried writing a formal response to a regulatory body about 'Text for Sex'?
mrsquiggle says: call it Schadenfreude or whatever, i am greatly entertained by that man's misfortune as you tell it.
Traumateddy says: Yeah, me too. My favorite moment was when he told Victoria that she should 'get back in the kitchen because that is where women belong'.... Way to practice relating to women so a drunk one will give you a nice toothy BJ one day.

So, is the boyfriend’s name a surprisingly accurate joke, or not… I just cannot tell: http://www.flickr.com/photos/yayalife/2293270241/

Undo! I mean, Redo!
Well, fictional Internet followers, it seems that life does go on. Does the fact that I still exist at all mean my heart has been keeping secrets from my head, while being endlessly entertained by the folly of my imaginary happiness? Does it mean that the years of utilization (NOT abuse) and appreciation  of backyard chemistry by generations past have addled my memory? Does it mean I do not fully...

Making molehills out of mountains?
My mother has launched a nag campaign against me. This involves constant inundation with calls and sms which have the intention to turn daughter into ‘BFF’. I am unsure if the onset of early dementia is causing her to forget each and every conversation where I am forced to categorically defend myself against a barrage of accusations about the depths of my loneliness, or whether she...
