What can I do if my cat literally never stops begging for food? As soon as I wake up and go to take a piss he's in my shit begging. He walks in front of your feet to make you trip multiple times and he runs up the stairs and gets in the way if you don't feed him. Every time I try laying down he just sits in my door way and stares at me until he falls asleep. Every time I go to the kitchen he'll start running in front of me and he'll start eating food out of his dish or eating random shit off the ground while getting in my way. It's literally 24/7. If I sit on the couch he just keeps staring at me and walking towards his food dish. If I ignore him he just jumps on something near me and makes a ton of noise and shit. Every second of the day he acts like he hasn't eaten in a week.

Give him more water

>>16919350
how much do you feed him per day? just curious
>>
>>16919350
How much do you feed him and WHAT do you feed him? If you're giving him scraps, you're doing this to yourself.

I have 6 cats. I have to refill their dishes twice a day and they leave me the fuck alone (unless they want cuddles/play time).

I almost never get sick, but when I do get sick, it's pretty severe.

I came down with a pretty bad flu I'm guessing. It started around Friday last week. Really bad headache, lot's of pressure in the head/nasal cavity, feeling really hot, soreness all over, really really bad sore throat accompanied by a bad cough. Basically been miserable the past few days.

I normally don't take any medicine because I don't feel it ever does anything for me and I'm just paranoid about the stuff in general. However, I was on spring break from school + paid vacation from work and I was fed up with being sick and decided I didn't want to waste my entire vacation sick so I caved and went to the store and bought some Mucinex as well as some Halls Cough Drops.

2/2

Upon taking the Mucinex I felt almost immediate relief from the high pressure in my head, head aches, nasal cavity, and soreness, but my sore throat and cough still persisted. So I took a cough drop and it was gross. I didn't look when I bought it, but it apparently contained menthol.

Now I have this nasty lingering menthol taste in the back of my throat the won't go away and it honestly feels worse than the flu because it's so distracting and generates so much saliva that I can't fall asleep.

I've been awake over 24 hours now just coughing and spitting up trying desperately to fall asleep but I can't.

I keep trying to eat/drink different things open to "wash out" the taste of the menthol in back of my throat, but everything only lasts temporarily until it comes back.

I guess my question is what can I do to alleviate this nasty taste of menthol that's in the back of my throat, and is there anything else I should be doing to help my flu?

Apologies if this is incoherent or poorly written. Like I said, I've been up for over 24 hours with an awful flu and I'm completely exhausted.
>>
i'm sorry to tell you what you probably already know, but you just have to wait it out, take some rest, stay hydrated, drink something warm like tea, and try to get some sleep, it's really important.
>>
>>16919437
Yeah, I figured as much. Just wanted to know if there's anything I can do to expedite the process...


I've been drinking a lot of water. So much so that I'm burping near constantly. Water however d doesn't really dilute the menthol taste, in fact, it feels like it amplifies it. I'll usually down a glass of water, build up a ton of saliva, have to spit it all out because swallowing is so painful/awakens that menthol taste that is so horrible in my mouth. Then I go and get a glass of cranberry juice or in this chocolate milk since they're actually soothing to go down.

As for tea, I tried some green tea but amplified that menthol taste even more so and it didn't seem to be helping with my sorethroat anyways so I said forget that.


Thanks for the advice anyways. More so just wallowing in self pity at this point

How do I ask a girl out via text message? I'm awkward at texting and it makes me a bit nervous not seeing the other person's body language. Do I need to chat a bit first? How do I know when the right time is? Any other advice?

It would be easier face to face but I don't think I can meet her irl soon unless I ask her to. I want to invite her to a free concert from crappy local bands that she may be interested in.
If you need more info, this is a girl I've met a few times before. We are both in our early 20s. The most we hung out before was at another free concert we went to with our mutual friends and we seemed to get along nice, we have a lot of stuff in common. I haven't seen her in about 2 months since she had an argument with these mutual friends I hang out with.

Thanks!

Talk a little bit (how have you been bla bla) Hey i'd like to take you to (insert date)

>>16919269
it sounds like you might not even be on her radar I would chat her up a bit over text first or even better figure out a way to see her in person since attraction through text is so fucking hard
>>
>>16919304
Thanks
>>16919332
Yeah I think you are right, thanks. Thing is this concert thing I want to go to with her is this weekend already (I only found out 2 days ago about it). I don't know if in that case I should still invite her but make it sound way more casual than a date.

Ugly friends, how do you deal with being ugly. Never thought of myself that way, but i've been told numerous times I'm not good looking. I make lots of music, have great friends and have a pretty fulfilling job, but I just can't shake the fact that i'm ugly.

As someone who is considered quite conventionally attractive, I've dated many people considered ugly if they have a great talent or a kind and sweet or bright personality. I prefer it in a way because you get deeper personalities and they're not as cunty. Just my 2 cents.
>>
>>16919254
That's a relief, i've had some very very attractive girlfriends, conventionally attractive. So that's why I never considered myself unattractive, but after being told numerous times, it's just kind of a punch in the gut

Hello /adv/.
I'm a MSTP student (e.g., MD-PhD-student) who finds that I easily want to do new things. I'm like an eight-year-old who, in the last three weeks, has wanted to go into computer science (I'm decent at programming as it is), wanted to take economics classes alongside med school (I've a few stocks and funds and economics generally interests me), wanted to do software development (not much room for creativity in medicine), wanted to take up drawing (I did some drawing in my teens but now just occasionally, once every year or so) and so on and so forth. Each of these bursts of "inspiration" last for a few days to a week. After that I want to do something else. I have heaps of unfinished projects, yet I never seem able to complete anything that isn't schoolwork. I want to get good at something, instead of being mediocre at everything.
How do I keep my concentration going?

>tl;dr guy who can't focus on any one project wants ways to hone his attention

I take meds for that bruh

But fake a new personality till you become it. Just persist... Persistence is The answer
>>
It's okay if you don't complete everything. In fact, it'd be okay if you just jumped from hobby to hobby the rest of your life. If you want to complete something, keep trying new things until something keeps your interest. Then you have a hobby for life, or as long as you like.

I just built a computer, nothing too complicated, and now whenever I press the power button lights come on and all the fans turn on, but then it all goes off. It only stays on for about a half a second, what could be causing this? I only have one stick of memmory, could that be causing it?

Sounds like a motherboard issue. Does it beep at all?

If it doesn't than it sounds like your mobo is DOA. If it does than that beep corresponds to what has failed in the system.
>>
>>16919098
Could also be that your power supply is bad or too weak.
>>
>>16919119
I don't know, the fans come on and lights come one, which seems that power is being drawn. Assuming OP doesn't have a beefy graphics card and shit PSU, it should at least try to POST before it shuts off.

But that's a good point, does your mobo POST at all? (There should be four LEDs on the board that light up in a sequence)

Friend wants to hang out, but only seems to have time for me when his gf is at work. It seems that he expects me to fit my schedule around his gf time even though they live together. Granted, I don't do much else and could do that but I don't want to, on principle. Rather than wait around I go do some shit on my own and friend gets butthurt that I didn't want to hang with him. Also he texts his gf a lot when we do actually hang. Am I an asshole?

Most shitty people do that. They do nothing but spend time with their SO and only ever bother hanging out with anybody else when they're unavailable.
>>
>>16919065

That's the case here and he doesn't seem to see an issue about it. I don't want to call him out about it but idk what else will do
>>
>>16919212
Call him out on it or he'll never learn. Most people who are in a relationship will make their time with their SO a high priority because that is how you maintain relationships. And they may not spend as much time together as you think, even if they live together.

However, a person still has to balance their time with their SO with their time with their friends if they want to keep their friends around. It's not always easy to learn, but it's a necessary life skill. And it doesn't sound like he's doing it so well.

Let him know you're feeling like leftovers. Maybe make a schedule for hanging out. It sounds anal, but planning ahead can prevent a lot of misunderstandings. Then you don't have to wait on him, and he doesn't have to feel like he missed a chance to hang out with you if you decide to go do something on your own.

A girl told me she is into me, today is coming home for "a cup coffe" does that mean that I have to fuck her? I don't even know how to initiate physical contact with her.

You don't HAVE to fuck her, but she is EXPECTING the fucking. It's like "Netflix & Chill".

If you feel awkward about initiating physical contact, try to get a distraction going like... Netflix in bed.
>>
>>16918970
if you dont at least match her expectations she will go cold to you forever and will never see you as potential mate again

good luck OP

kissing someone is something extremely strong that has been banalized nowadays
sex creates an even more intense bond
dont act like sex and kissing is just for pleasure, these things involve love.
the first time i kissed, it was with a girl that i hanged out dor long time, she was a great friend and i trully loved her, that made the experience show me a whole new world.
is also scientifically prooved that sex with someone you dont quite know can do emotional damage
I strongly advice you to NOT enter in a sexual relashionship with someone you dont LOVE

Sorry if a spelled something wrong, english is not my mother tongue.
