I really like this girl and she really likes me... |
After spending time talking with Muslim apologists on YouTube, I'm starting to genuinely hate Islam. | I know it's not the "done" thing to be openly hostile towards Islam, that at some point our culture decided that the best way to deal with an ideology that is diametrically opposed to our notions of freedom of speech, life and liberty was to never say anything to it that may be mildly upsetting. But I've found Muslim a... |

Tonight though, he was pl... |

Advice: Go for it. You miss 100% of the shots you never take. | /r/relationship_advice is swamped with comments from geeks who are afraid of doing the wrong thing, of potentially making a mistake, or of getting rejected.

Hey reddit, it's time to move on to an open standard. Opt-in to the HTML5 betas now. | I'm getting pretty tired of Flash crashing. It's a proprietary platform and as Steve Jobs put it, Adobe is too lazy to do anything. I think it's time to move on.
For YouTube, all you need to do is go to and click on "Join the HTML5 Beta". In Vimeo, you click on the link in the bottom, and voila, video will no longer ... |

HAE noticed that the Samoas/Caramel deLites are shockingly smaller this year? | They were always such a wonderfully hefty cookie. Losing a trivial amount of Thin Mint to the wavy outline was one thing. But now Samoas are practically the size of Thin Mints. They are SIGNIFICANTLY tinier, and I do not like it. |
I know we are tired of Modern Warfare 2 posts... | ...but I was just in a game and a level 1 guy (non-prestige) was running around with a Tactical Knife. Maybe it's my lack of sleep, but how would a lv 1 already have a Tac knife?

Thinking about making a GW chat room | Since I found out about the GW chat rooms, I have been there every night. I love the community even when there is no one going wild. Everyone is friendly and talkative. But one thing I have noticed with tinychat is that it blows, and blows hard. It's laggy and doesn't do a very good job with the cams.
So this is whe... |

Is the recognition of potential downvotes a recognition of the narrow mindedness of reddit? | If reddit is really such a free thinking and intellectual community, why must anyone with a recognizable, unpopular opinion be gun shy? |
Update: Things not going quite so well | Psy-kosh was kind enough to check in me with a message a few days ago. I figure I should write an update since my last post.
I've felt pretty down a couple of times, including suicide ideation. Nothing immediate. I'm mostly keeping it at, "In three months when my money runs out..." I am starting to worry about my ... |
