Anybody ever have lasik eye surgery? I hate contacts and I'm sick of wearing glasses.
How is it? Any after effects? Expensive?
I'm actually getting mine done on Tuesday. It costs around $5000 no matter were you go in the US unless you have a sketchy ass doc.
>>17364265
Sheeeit. I thought it'd be cheaper than that. I can afford it but still.
>>17364269
You can usually make payments through Care Credit. I'm on a 24 month no interest payment plan so I'm paying about $220 a month.
what do????
Drop something really heavy on the ground
Or move out so your parents can enjoy their sex lives without having a NEET listening in on them
Fap along
>>17364186
Absolutely. Do that. This guy gets it.
A dog came up to my door the other day. I've been taking care of him, for about three days now. He's well groomed, and I've been meaning to take him to a vet to see if he has a chip. I have a leash, and when he saw it he was really excited. Could taking him for a walk help him find his way back home?
What's the worst that could happen?
It works. I can't count how many times I've managed to help a lost dog get home by walking with them. They'll usually walk up to the front door that they recognize.
Yes try it. They usually find back. Just let the dog kind of lead the way.
Can anyone who knows about what to do with fine hair help me out? My hair is really flimsy, so it always flops flat within a few hours. Pretty much the opposite of straight black Asian hair that stands up by itself. I checked it under a microscope during a bio course, the diameter was far smaller than anyone elses, even the two Scandinavian blonde girls. Google tells me that blonde hair is supposedly the smallest diameter on average, to give you a more accurate idea of what is growing out of my head.
How should I cut it? What products are good for my type of hair? How should I style it, assuming the face in the picture is mine? I took this picture at an angle that I think highlights the flaws of my face, but Im only guessing that is more helpful than a more neutral angled picture. Sorry for the long windedness.
Also I just realized that I fucking forgot to shave, so no need to point that out.
Buy shampoo and conditioner (not the two-in-one bullshit) that offers volume for starters
>>17364132
Any specific recommendations that aren't too expensive?
Girls, how would you honestly feel if your boyfriend was being threatened by some punks and he beat them up.
If it was warranted (ie they were threatening to hurt him or other loved ones), then aroused. There's nothing more attractive than a man who knows when he needs to step up and protect.
I'd question why I was dating a violent vigilante
>>17364144
A vigilante?
Are we reading the same story
i have limited resources. how do i get away with murder
Is this a joke or not?
I'd tell you, but I'd have to kill you.
>>17364116
If you plan on using a gun use a shotgun, ballistic forensics can't be used to trace the gun back to you if you use buckshot
I'm socially awkward, no close friends. But I finally brought my own condo. I want to get laid without having to go to someone else's place or sneaking around roommates or parents. How do I get someone to come over?
Buy alot of hot pockets. Then tell girls you have hot pockets. Too easy.
>>17364136
That's a good idea. I'll take not of it
Tinder if youre goodlooking and funny
I wanted at least to break a little bit of ground before consulting a lawyer:
Does anyone know if you can sue to remove the "reasonable accommodations" that your employers give you under the ADA? I don't really need mine, and they're pretty much there as an excuse to isolate me.
be more spesific
>>17364109
In what sense? At least from my amateur understanding, the question as to whether or not you can challenge the accommodations that are supposedly there to protect you isn't something that's come up too much in caselaw: It's all about whether or not the person really is disabled, and whether or not those accomodations are reasonable, because the assumption is that the disabled person wants as much as they can get, and the employer wants to do as little as possible, as opposed to my case where I want those accommodations removed and being treated like one of the boys.
Uh, anyone?
So everyone agrees looks are important. But does it matter if you achieve good looks naturally or not?
I mean, as long as they look good, would you care if your partner got like that through artifice?
If you're having kids it might be a deal breaker depending on what was done. Otherwise not so much.
I would only care if i planned to have children with the person
Why does that matter if you want children?
I feel as if I am falling behind tremendously in life. I am mid 20's but I feel like I am 50.
It feels like life has gone full gray and nothing means anything anymore. I don't get any pleasure from anything I use to like doing. Video games don't hold my attention, reading does nothing. I don't have the capacity for a relationships or the capital.
Is this all life has to offer? I am not interested in travel or seeing the world. In fact, I am convinced most of the world is a 3rd world shit hold and the only places maybe worth living in are canada, USA and some portions of europe and australia. MAYBE.
Everywhere just seems like shit. Everything just seems like shit.
WHY DOES EVERYTHING SEEM LIKE SHIT!?
Anyone remember that south park episode where stan could only see things as SHIT? Help me.
Oh look, another depressive joins the fold
>>17364106
I wouldn't be this way if getting a girlfriend were not such a shitty ordeal. Its horrible. You need so much fucking capital. Particularly, a car if you don't live in a city with a good metro. Then its excusable. I however live in one of those "cities" but lacks good public transit, so everyone just uses a fucking car.
FUCK THIS WORLD!
Depression.
Please visit a psychologist.
And stay strong, you hear me ?

You're 22... You're supposed to be getting drunk all the time. Start hanging out at a new bar, start a conversation with the bartender, then the regulars... Come back in a few days. Repeat until you are a regular with cool new friends.
>>17364073
>Start hanging out at a new bar, start a conversation with the bartender, then the regulars
I'm somewhat shy to go into a bar and start drinking alone, people always go in big group of friends.
Also I'm very annoying and impertinent when black-out drunk or borderline black-out drunk, I've done or said shit that could get me seriously injured or killed if I was in a dangerous place.
I'm stuck between being lonely and wanting companionship, and yet, I also feel unworthy of love from other people; as if they shouldn't waste their time with me. That I'm not worth it.
Maybe I'm better off alone.
ok
Same. Except I don't really feel lonely outright, and know I don't really -need- sexual or emotional attention. I've always been alone, so the notion of being "'with" someone else is a role I can't put or see myself in, and I assume it would be worse for the other person than their alternatives, despite not having a very solid basis for that either.
Me too.
We could all be alone together! But away from each other.... by ourselves.
Is there any way to stop hating myself as much as I do without prescription drugs or professional help?
You can't do it with prescription drugs or professional help either.
;^)
>>17364040
You can't hate yourself if you're dead ;-)
have you tried therapy or counseling?
A few years ago a friend of mine who worked at a sex shop got me a horse shaped dildo as a gag gift. I threw it in the back of my closet with all of my other toys and completely forgot about it when I got a boyfriend. It has never been used.
Today my boyfriend was helping me clean out my place when he discovered my box of toys in the closet and the dildo. We both laughed and I told him the story and I thought it was funny but then he suddenly said he had to go. I've been sitting here freaking out for the past two hours staring at my phone, should I call or text him something and try to explain?
> tl;dr got a equine shaped dildo as a joke gift and forgot about it until boyfriend found it, wat do?
So is it shaped like a horse, or is it shaped like a horse's dick? Because I know which it probably is, but my mental image is still very confused.
Did he take the dildo with him?
Have you named the dildo
How the fuck do I sort my life out?
Sometimes I feel like I have an issue but I don't know what it is, it's like I'm basically unable to have a "normie" day, especially in relation to hygiene / clothing, which is pretty shameful to admit somewhere else than online.
Basically on any day at all, I'm unable to do more than 3 of the following it seems:
>putting my contact lenses
>showering
>washing hair
>shaving beard/grooming
>brushing teeth
>have decent set of clothes
>have a normal amount of supplies available in my bathroom/kitchen
>wash clothes / have set of clean clothes available on hand
>cook stuff
The reason for this is, once I wake up I have no motivation to make myself "feel better" for the day.
Sometimes I kinda feel like a day is short and it's pointless to do all this shit to appear ok just for 10 hours or so before coming back home.
The real reason I guess is... idk, it's like that, out of all this stuff that is supposed to make me feel good, I have the sensation that the process of doing it will be painful, difficult, unpleasant... for some reason.
Does any body else have this?
Should I see a specialist about this?
You're depressed. Go and see a therapist
>>17364027
well fuck
I've always been like that though, the only times I can act kinda normie is when I'm on holidays with friends but I revert very quickly to my old self anyway
>>17364059
Like you made that list in the op, make it in real life, wake up and dont turn on your computer or tv until you do what it needs to be done
Inb4 some excuse why you need the pc/tv on, if you dont want to solve your issue its ok, but dont pretend you do
