I called a girl heavy and she said I should die overseas

Az, that, plus it's an issue of privacy. This place is a public place.

Yea but with you its different. You have issues and to compensate, you feel the need to be condescending with people. I'm sure IRL you're a sensitive teddy bear mostly trying to impersonate teh tough guy.

But this routine works, so you should'nt be out of action.

But this thread is not about you.

I don't think you undestand KH very well. The truth is that he works in a very competitive domain, where you have to be actually super-brilliant in order to be succesfull. Hard work and intelligence are not even sufficient. What KH knows from experience (and I'm inclined to believe him) is that he's much smarter than the average, and yet that's not even sufficient to guarantee him professorship when he's done with his PhD. He probably unconsciously suffers from that, when he thinks that he could have become a doctor or an engineer and have an easy time.

Hence KH's arrogance is more a function of the immensity of the challenge he faces than a true show of weakness. There are times where you need to offload your unconscious stress, and Poly is one of the best RPGish punching bag you could devise to that effect.

Almost all OT regulars, in a way or another, exhibit a personal 'illness'. My personal preference — and that's clearly a question of taste — goes to those with an original one : at least, it shows there's something truly personal and individual going on in their lives.

I've got my own asshat-o-matic opinions on this, but there's no need to give names.

Oh God. It must be bad. Shiva sent a pm. :vomit:

theres that meta aspect too, but really, theres no point in spending effort (money, time, etc etc) and trying to cajole a woman into sleeping with you if there are many who would do it readily. if the net result is the same (me getting off) it doesnt even matter.

My point is that it can be much better sex with an enthusiastic woman than with a better looking one that is merely 'present'

he thinks that he could have become a doctor or an engineer and have an easy time.

I couldn't have dealt with the boredom of being an engineer, and as for doctor, I have neither the work ethic nor the stomach.

[KrazyHorse]

It's not all bad, though. If I don't get a pretty good postdoc I'll either be a quant or a consultant (and make 5 times as much money)

The problem remains whole : chance is you won't be doing what you really want to.

I'm glad you had the forethought to say "most", because there's not one thing wriong with me. I'm just dandy, but thanks for any concern any might have had on that subject.

That's possible, but the older I get the more important having enough money to live comfortably on and being able to retire at a reasonable age seem to me...

I really like how the discussion shifted to "KH - ******* or a brilliant man of science seeking relief of the pressures of the academic world"

More "is this chick bonable" images, please. ( so far, the score is "no")
