Must be frustrating. I tried to get a diagnosis recently, but he told me "definitely not Asperger's" because (according to him, and I was quite offended by this O._.o) Aspies are not generally very bright, and I have a college education which is rare for aspies (despite the fact that my diploma is a... |

I'm apparently like two different people even comparing how I talk online and how I talk on a webcam. I think it's because I'm afraid to open up in person. People scare me for some reason, but I find it easier to say what I really feel online. |

I had a similar issue with Youtube, with it sitting for a long time trying to load "ad.doubleclick.net" so I went into my hosts file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and added a line at the bottom "127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net" Problem solved. The problem seems to be gone after I formatted, so may... |

I've played a lot of MMOs, the only ones I ever stuck with for any significant period of time though were Ultima Online and World of Warcraft. I know people speak against paying for games, but when a gamer picks up WoW, he saves money because he stops buying other games. I usually join a guild in su... |

Granted, but your choice is immediately beheaded.

Mirrors are creepy. It's like it isn't me I see, but an empty shell. I guess it's supposed to be me, but I just find it creepy. |

Granted, but he likes you so much it's impossible to get rid of him. He never leaves you alone, and slowly drives you insane.
I wish winter would go away and never come back. |

I have heard of something called cognitive behavioral therapy. I've never used it, but it was suggested to me one time. Tim Therapy divides problems into categories. Cognitive/behavioural is just two types of basic counseling theories. Behavioural, cognitive, systematic (interpersonal), and I can't... |

I actually have a very diverse taste in music. My favourites lately are Eternal Decision (Christian metal band, lots of Metallica Influence), and Ivan Moravec (playing Mozart on the piano). I've also been known to listen to some rap (Eminem, 50 Cent, Bizzarre). I tend to prefer heavy metal kind of t... |

As one who worked for phone tech support for a year and a half, I feel the need to remind you that not everyone thinks like you. Nobody that yelled at me wanted to be understood. I know because I tried hard to be understanding, and it didn't change anything. They just wanted to vent. If it helps th... |
