OT Thread Part IIX: The How Do Roman Numerals Work? Edition

Well, glad I'm not the only one.

The day when Bob seems happier than the rest of us... never thought this day would come. If sad Christmas happens again, let's just go fishing one year.
 
I have come to the conclusion that my facial hair experiment has failed. Tried to grow it like this fellow:

Turns out it looks stupid if you can't grow the beard all the way around. Inconsistent, poofy sideburns are a no go. There's also the fact that I don't have the body of a top athlete....

Three nights a week is nice, but those twelve hour shifts kill. I'm on orientation for a new job on days for now, but come the new year, I'll be cast back onto nights :(

I got a Merry Christmas message from TCRF on Facebook.

Is this what real love is?
 
As did I, from Jason.

I proceed to change our conversation to the topic of how terrible my Christmas was

Merry Christmas to all my friends over here! Let's all hope the lockout ends for Christmas/Hanukkah/whatever you celebrate, and we can go back to hating each other again!:laugh:

Just kidding just kidding. Well about the hating each other part at least!
 
Seeing pictures of all of you was really... interesting.

I have this tendency to think 17/18 year olds are gonna make me look like I'm 5. Then it always turns out they look the same as most people in my class
 
Youngins around here. Chilling alone is great; you just have to choose to enjoy it. Instead of thinking "wow, I'm so bored. I have nothing to do and no one to do it with" think "I'm chilling alone right now, with myself". I'm one of my own favorite people to hang out with. On those nights when I end up having to entertain myself alone all night, I get to set the agenda and not have to cater to anyone else. It's a nice change of pace from always considering what your girlfriend, or friends want to do. I pick a movie or something that I deeply enjoy, stock pile some guilty snacks, grab some alcohol, etc. Or I pick up a game like an Assassin's Creed that has a really long story and I do the same, but immerse in the story for like 6 hours, no interruptions. Hanging out alone can be great; doesn't have to boring or mopey at all. Meanwhile, happy xmas.
 
Reading around the boards... people are starting to crack.

It's even less friendly than usual. So much name calling, and insults in every second post.

Cold Turkey is setting in....

I live alone, so I chill by myself a lot. In the last 14 months it's been the first time I've ever lived alone. Always had roommates, and now by myself, and with my dogs, cats, and birds. I do love hanging out with friends, but I don't get too bored sitting by myself.
 
Living alone is pretty crappy during holidays :laugh:

I'm usually fine with all the other holidays because there's no lead up to it and doesn't have a two-part (eve and day) component to it.

Having that said, Christmas is awful :laugh:

Ha! Welcome to my world. I'm 36 and still completely incapable of growing an actual beard.

Another new GF? Damn dude. You WNYers jump from significant other to significant other like it's nothing. I've seen that first-hand in a few situations now

Hope everyone's Christmas is going well, though judging by some posts in this thread it doesn't seem that way. I for one always look forward to today being Jewish. Nothing like NBA ball and Chinese food to kill a day! And I don't even have to feel guilty about not doing anything, well, because there's nothing to do!

:)
 
I've been growing a nasty beard since I've been 15. However, as I've slimmed down, I prefer to keep my face clean shaven now.
