You know, if I lived in Alaska, I'd be bloody well pissed too.
-
Agreed. Applies to Iowa as well, and it's 3:30 here.
And yet, I haven't had a drink all day. How odd.
Maybe it comes from not having enough money to buy anything worth drinking, and everyone worth drinking it with being asleep or a few hundred miles away.
And, of course, being outside of the legal limit involves owning a car. Or having somewhere to go to be drunk in public. Christ, I really do need a drink. Many drinks, supplied constantly for the next year or so. Hundred-proof or better.
-
That's called a bar or a pub, no?
-
No, as in for it to be in be in public there needs to be actual people there.
There actually is a bar, but it's, um, not my type of crowd, even when there is a "crowd".

Iowa is that bad of a place so even pubs are dead?
And stop urinating on my pants, thank you.

I'd say Iowa ranks significantly below Hell on my list of places I'd be happy to be in. Hell actually sounds rather fun. At least, provided the gun laws there aren't too strict and they let me bring my camera.
The bars aren't always empty, theoretically at least (occasionally the sports guys I share a dorm with end up at some absolutely insane parties... somewhere), but I haven't seen a real party since moving here and whenever I swing by the bars have two, maybe three oldish guys sitting there getting drunk in silence and that's it. Sitting there getting drunk in silence is actually a pretty reasonable response, and if they served proper Stoli out here instead of this mouthwash **** I'd probably join 'em.
ALOS I AM TYPEING LIKM AN IKDOIT TOO PRETAND I M DRUNKCK. GIVU IT UP KID U DON"T FOOL NOBODY,
PLUS WHIE TH HELL ARES YOU POSTIKN ON FORUM IF U:'RS DRUNK? GO TAK OFF UR PANTSX IN PUBLIK OR SOMETIN HAV FUN

Ah well... I have some pretty decent pub at hand called conveniently "Le pub" ( the pub :p ), always full of people around my age, where I go quite often, plus a handful of others, but like them less ( mood, people there, different reasons depending on the place ). And I live in quite a remote city...
Never tried going some other place?
-
Like where? I don't have a car, and outside of the little cowtown the college is situated in it's about 40 miles of cornfield in every direction.
-
It's now 11:18am in the UK (by my ****ty clock anyway) and I'm totally sober.
I do, however, have £55, a Spar that sells Whiskey within 400m and several hours to kill.
-
Like in another state, dunno, find some thing you wanna study, a job, whatever, and go away? Not like you'll do anything good for your future in some USA's asshole.
The moment I could do that, I did, to be honest :p ( and every year, I keep going farther away from my home :D )
-
Working on it. My C+ average ain't gonna get me much luck in transfers, and this year's been a total loss as far as getting anything worthwhile done goes, so I'd probably get rejected from places I coulda gone only last year. But I've set up a nice stack of "less challenging" courses that don't look totally moronic for next year as padding, so all I'll probably have to do is survive a few more months and work up the will to do applications when the time comes and I'll be free. It's really the only option since I've got only $200 to my name and the rest of my family ain't much better off, and I'm not counting on some incredible stroke of luck to save me like it did that bastard friend of mine who skipped college and ended up traveling all over the world doing whatever he wanted instead. I still don't get how he pulled it off.
It'd be nice to get a job somewhere, but at this point I'm still not terribly good at the whole graphics thing, I can't very well get work selling photos or milking my half of a philosophy degree, and I've always loathed writing too much to do it unless absolutely forced to. Basically, given the job market right now, I'd be flipping burgers or jimmying with transmissions if I got anything at all, and without a degree I'd stay doing that for good. If I get out of college and end up in a dead-end job, fair enough, I gave it a shot and probably got something nice like a better understanding of the great writers out of it, at least one thing I can take to my grave. But just dropping it all now... well, it'd be the last big choice I'd get to make and there's no guarantee there wouldn't be another Iowa on the other side, forever. I gots years to do the whole homeless thing or the waste-of-a-life bit, I ain't in no hurry. Plus, back before I came here I knew what I was doing, I had a plan, I cared, and I was smart as all ****- these days, I'm none of those things- I barely even qualify as sentient most days- but I bet the smarter me was right about something, and I'd further venture that if I could get somewhere where I didn't feel numb all the time I'd go back to the way I used to be, figure things out, and I'd rather have all my options open for that point.
And how do you think I ended up here? I only came to the Midwest because the guys I applied to even farther away from home weren't interested. Sometimes, you worry too much about getting away from something, you don't look where you're going too closely and end up in a pit.

Y'see, this is why computers and alcohol don't mix. You should be out picking fights with strangers, or vomiting in someone else garden, before falling asleep in a bus stop.

I wasn't talking about just alcohol :nervous: , in fact, I don't really drink all that much.

You mean, you haven't discovered the switch on the bottom? The one that ejects the fresh razor blade and mirror?
