12/24 - Die Hard is a Christmas Movie Monday!

I've cut back so much on wine drinking that food is all I have left. How does one deal with emotions non-destructively?

Drink enough wine that you black out. Then you wake up in your bed the next morning with no memory of the self-destructive events

I'm a PT Turker with a FT 'dream job' in an industry that doesn't pay people worth crap. I think I put 1% in the 401k to make myself feel better about never being able to retire, lol.

The company doesn't match a certain percentage or anything? I haven't had a 401k in years since I worked for Comcast back when they matched up to 6%, even then it never seemed to add up well. I've kinda lucked out with the FT job and they throw 9$ for every hour I work in an annuity, I'll just have to see whether their rate of return holds steady.

you can watch tv and movies of people that have it worse off than you, which is why im glad that the entire Married with children series is on hulu. you get to hear tons of awesome jokes like these.

Al: marcy, where would Kelly go to live if she only had 249 dollars?

Marcy: Well for 249 dollars, shes either living in a Big Gulp cup, or she's selling her body for Pez.

I know lots of people are happy using weed. But I'm not. I use food as my drug of choice and I don't mix my psychoactives. Chips and chocolate it is.

Sugar has always been the most addictive substance in my life. I hear that is common with Type 2 diabetics, though.

I prefer it over alcohol.

Never done drugs so I can't comment on that. Not that I'm against self medicating, to each their own. Just prefer the type of rush sugar and caffeine give me.

The problem is it makes me more depressed when I'm depressed (specifically the next day)... had to cut that shit waaaay down (and I never had more than 3 glasses in one sitting to begin with). So now I have one glass on thursdays and 2 glasses on sundays generally.

Question.

What was that website that would list all the new hits posted from all the forums on the interwebs?
I remember using it when I first started and can't remember it now.

Edit: It's probably long gone now, but still wanna know it's name.

Sugar makes me so mad. I've had a steady diet of cookies so far today

Ah, see there's your problem. You gotta up that intake to like 3 bottles in 1 sitting. Theres an invisible line where drinking goes from
1-2 Drinks -> Fun.
3-5 Drinks -> Sad and hurt
2 Bottles and up -> Having a great time and where the fuck are my snacks?

yeah, I made up some gingerbread men. I smother them with cream cheese frosting and make sandwich cookies out of them.

so. many. carbs.

WHOA WHOA WHOA

dont you ever confuse those peachys!

the mtc @PeachyRider is a young selfless dude with a heart of gold. He turks modestly and donates money to homeless shelters. He does nis laundry on Saturdays and does yoga at the YMCA on Sundays

the Turkerview peachy is a violent, money grubbing, womanizing outlaw. he slept with michelle Obama and Hillary clinton at the same time... DURING Trump's inauguration. He burned down that orphanage that was next to the Fire station, and sometimes, he goes to gas stations, pays for 50.00 in premium gas, and just sprays it everywhere... just for kicks!
