I want to stop procrastinating.
For last 5 months all I did was posting stuff in internet and playing games. I live off income from my website and I'm too lazy to even go to employment center and register as unemployed to collect the benefits (although they are not that great here in Russia).
Every morning I wake up, feel awful and, to distract myself from heaviness, go do something in internet. Usually I keep things that way until the and of the day, although sleepiness and heaviness go away after breakfast.
Ideally I would like to start day with morning exercises, follow todo list throughout the day and go back to work as programmer. But something stops me every morning.
Logistical blocks don't help. Even if I remove computer altogether, I procrastinate using books and walking around.
How do I find a way out of this vicious cycle?

When I was 19-20, I tried joining the Navy, but further along as I went through processing, I got pretty sour on the whole thing. I eventually was disqualified because I have a burn scar on my chest that came from a jerk neighborhood kid when I was a child. They thought it might be from self harm, so I got disqualified. My recruiter appealed, and they made me take a psych evaluation.

I answered the whole thing thing kind of like an asshole, because I didn't really want to join anymore. I didn't answer anything like I want to kill people or have gnarly sexual urges or anything weird like that. Anyways the results came back, and they determined that I was depressed and an alcoholic. This made me happy, as I didn't want really want to join anymore. Anyways, for the record, I've never been so depressed that I wanted to kill myself or couldn't do day-to-day tasks, and I binge drinked probably once a month when I was younger (drinking lost its appeal when I turned 21).

So now I'm 24, in my third year at college as a Mathematics major and Physics & CSS minor. My question to you all is, do you think I'm still disqualified from all US Armed Forces? Would going into any of the Armed Forces with my education mean anything to them? I want to join because before I entered college I knew exactly what I wanted to do, but now I'm nearing graduation I'm not quite as sure. I think it'd be nice to have the military pay some of my student debts (I haven't missed any payments, or in emergency mode or anything, my credit is pretty much perfect), and I also like the idea of just being told what to do. Military life seems simple in that you just do whatever your superiors tell you to do, and I think it's nice that the military is pretty much a self running thing and business sales/customer service/etc doesn't mean much to them.

Is there a good way to find people you lost contact with on the Internet? All I can think of is Facebook and LinkedIn. I know the persons name and that they used to live in Canada but we fell out of touch about 9 years ago and I'd like to see if I can hit them up again, so far with no luck.

I'm majoring in law and I speak a foreign language considered difficult and I speak English and Spanish and French.

What should I do with my degree to be able to travel or work in a foreign country? Can I validate my degree in another country so that I can practice law there?

Why are all stepfathers giant assholes? Is it because they are pathetic cucks, they know they are only plan b and settled for, and they're compensating their inferiority?

I ended up offer $40 top anyone in my community if they showed me a receipt for new Nike shoes they'd purchased for themselves. This was a promotion for my business. I extended the offer to folks on 4chan. They just had to email me a picture of their receipt.

I caught on that people were doing Google image searches of receipts. I made an announcement that I was no longer honoring the deal because I was being taken advantage of. Then someone emailed me that he was getting together with other 4chan users that I refused to pay and they were going to sue.

Can they do that?

Yo /adv/, Im applying for a position as a research scientist at a startup nearby, and I need to know if my cover letter is up to snuff. My problem is that its being sent to a generic HR server, so I have no clue who to address it to. Here's what Ive got:


To whom it may concern:

It has come to my attention that Mucommune is scouting out candidates for a recently opened scientist position at your Chapel Hill location. With my strong background in research, breadth of experience, passion for hard work I believe I am an idea candidate for the position. I am amply qualified for this position, having knowledge of and experience with ELIZA, Western Blots, and Gel electrophoresis.

My strong personal work ethic, coupled with actual non-scholastic laboratory experience puts me ahead of most other recent graduates who may seek such a position. I have also long desired to be involved in healthcare, and see your company and its research as a natural fit.

Attached is my resume. I look forward to hearing back from your representatives and discussing how my skills can be put to work for your organization.

For your consideration,

anon

I made a bunch of sock accounts and I got away with it for a while because I used fake SSI cards and Birth Certificates, which isn't illegal since it's just facebook, but they were easy because they don't need a photo and not a lot of different color. Now, they've requested a photo ID and deactivated over half of the accounts. Facebook has photo forensics, so they can tell if you photoshop the Drivers License. Well, now I've been asked to provide a DL to re-activate some of the accounts. I'll lose over 30 accounts if I don't do something soon. Anyone know where to find random photos of Drivers Licenses? I can change the names on the accounts to match the DL's, then I can keep the accounts. I don't really need them, but it would be nice to have as many as possible because I joined a few Political groups with all the accounts and I wanted to keep trolling the groups over and over as they kick out all the accounts, there will still be more. So, it's not like it's important, it's stupid, but it'd be cool if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Um, how can I give stop giving a fuck about people?

Well, there's this girl that I met at the cafeteria, the "lonesome guy" had a certain charm I guess so we started talking and became great friends eventually.

Long story short, I tried taking things to the next level and kissed her, it felt good, but this is horrible because feelings grew on me and basically, she gives a damn about me, I saw her yesterday, I tried talking to her asking what happened to our friendship and so on, I never felt so humiliated because I was begging her, ugh, I never felt this before so I'm not sure what to do, I'd really like to stop caring about this whole thing, honestly.

I've overcome my mental illness, am into prostitutes, and unconventional sexual practices.

However, when I try to imagine my future partner, my daydream is always about somebody who is NOT into all the shit I am into. It doesn't need to be "pure" or "innocent", but I'd love someone who is outside my circles.

However, if possible candidates look somebody who is similar to them, they will.never pay attention to me.

I don't know what to do. I am enjoying my world, but am craving to just have a normal relationship with a simple girl. I am ready to go full vanilla for such a unicorn, but is it okay to deny who I really am?

I've been in a relationship with this girl for quite a while now and she's cute funny and awesome. But tonight she went to a party and is at this point in time... Completely wasted. She always says when she's drunk the she "always gets so horny" I've and she keeps wanting me to come over there and fuck her. But it's a small party and someone's house who I don't really know and I also don't know anyone there. And I'm too shy to go in uninvited also I sort of have other commitments. I've been stressing out this whole night that she's going to cheat on me and I really can't handle it at this point in time. My life recently has been in the gutter but I'd rather not talk about it now. But recently my grades have been picking up and the people that have been picking on me have pretty much stopped and I have no people trying to bash me at school. But if she cheats on me I don't think I'll be able to take it. She's one of the nicest people I've met and I don't want to loose her over some stupid shit. But the most annoying part is I don't think I'd know what to do if she does cheat on me.

I'd like to add that I am not emo (as much as that post made it sound like I was) I just really care about her.

I don't even know why I'm asking this here.. only rude people and shitty answers but at least I get fast replies. I'm not going to tell the whole story but since there are lot's of guys here I might as well get some input.

Let's say I lived with my boyfriend for more than a year in my country where he leeched the whole time. I have a bad temper and he knows it. When it's time to leave I let him go normally but get a bit angry because he barely texts me. The reason I'm angry is because this wasn't the first time he was here and when he returned to his country he was distant again and it's like it's a different person. So I said some bad things on the text but nothing new and he knows me very well.

I'll also say something that he denies but it was always clear to me that it was like that.

I started and developed this relationship. I was always the one trying my best to make it happen, even if just for all the time spent in it and not wanting to start over.

So this time, I decide to not bother. I decide to let him talk to me.

It has been more than two months and he hasn't said shit.

I'm more pissed off than I am sad. Wasted years with this person for nothing and I didn't get any younger. He didn't delete me on fb and I still have his mother and some other relatives on it.

I feel like I don't know this person at all.

Is it over? More than 2 months without a word from him but I haven't pursued him either. So is it? If it is, why didn't he delete me or block me on fb?

I probably could have gotten him back if I went after him as always but enough is enough. Never again. Rather be alone forever. Fuck this shit. Wasted time.

And for the people who will be assholes, I'll tell you in advance to get acid on your faces.
