Please don't take this too seriously.

Ben's being cool right now. You should want to encourage that.

[DaShi]

No, he's not. This is all part of his overall schtick. We've all seen it enough to know how inguenuine it actually is.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Well, pipe down and watch me get fished in.

[DaShi]

The only way to stop him is to ignore him. Ignore him with fire!

[Kidlicious]

I seriously don't understand what my family could do to help.

They probably can't.

Bro, try to look at the beautiful irony that is human life. All we think about is perfection, yet nothing in the physical world is perfect. Family can't help you. In fact, they might be a big part of your problems.

I think Lori should embrace nihilistic psychopathy.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Depends on the family in question, of course.

...

I spoken with my sister, and the vet suggestion was very helpful. Thanks.

I'm watching T2 tonight, because time travel has been on my mind recently (it always is when I'm filled with regret) and because it stars Linda Hamilton, who possesses a T-1000 style clone in the form of Tammy Lauren, who stars in Wishmaster, which I watched the other night because wishing has been on my mind recently, too (guess why).

You're calling me a chick?

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

I didn't know Linda Hamilton had a Leelee Sobieski.

I know this much, if I relied on Poly as a PsycKological outlet i would Be in... trouBle.

Oh heavens to Betsy, no. I can't possibly tell strangers who have power over me that I'm a weak, pathetic sack of ***

Winston Churchill suffered from depressionand still managed to be Prime Minister during WWII. There is nothing weak or pathetic about suffering from depression and I box your ears (virtually) for suggesting that.

No, they won't disown me, they'll be disappointed in me.

Let them be disappointed. That's part of what life entails. At least it's one more thing you're not keeping to yourself.

[molly bloom]

But srsly, I'm clearly not going to take any of the good advice you folks are offering, because I'm a useless meat bag destined to die alone and unhappy.

Also a carny fortune teller it appears. And a believer in predestination.

Hogwash.

Get off your arse, exercise, tell the academic staff and your parents.

[molly bloom]

I seriously don't understand what my family could do to help.

They could listen and understand. Families have been known to do that kind of thing.

[Lorizael]

Yeah, they could listen and understand, and...? How does their listening and understanding substantively benefit me? And even if that does provide some benefit, I've got a therapist who does just that already (among other things).
