Long story short, I'm in the beginning of a painful break up. The day after my fucking birthday too.
FUKKKKKKK

@Captain short after you stopped using that hat. who wants a captain without a cool captain hat

@CoyneTheDup I see no problem here:

Nor do I
-
@sloosecannon Nor do I
-
Crap, I can never hang these things level...
-
FTFY
-
@sloosecannon Mine looks okay but I think yours is a little twisted.
-
That was a very quick derailment

-
@sloosecannon the painful only slightly tilted thread?

I'm sorry, Captain, that really fucking sucks. Hang in there. By your next birthday it won't hurt nearly so much.
-
Breaking up is shit. You'll be on the other side of it eventually

I know that feeling. Hope you recover faster than me.

I didn't know people celebrate every year the first time they had sex.
On a more serious note, hang in there. It will get better over time.

Seconded.

FUKKKKKKKSorry to hear that :-( I wish there was something we could do to cheer you up.
We'd take you out for a beer if we could.

Or two. Or three. And add some scotch while we're at it. ;)

@Captain So don't make it a long break up. Make it a short one. Go to Las Vegas for a week, it's not that expensive. When you get back it'll all be solved.
Also birthdays are dumb. "Oh wow you managed to go yet another year without somehow dying. Let's have a party!" Like anybody wants to live another year.

I'm certainly not the most cheerful person ever, but even to me this sounds like you might need professional help.
-
@blakeyrat this is a good idea but impractical right now. There's too much to disentangle.
-
@Captain If you're disentangling stuff that's why it's long. Just go and chill somewhere for a week. Nobody's boss is such a hardass that they'll fire you for that.

Or if you're like me, I'll gladly replace the scotch with something good, like tequila.
This site may be the last place you should go for sane advice, unless you're really good at ignoring trolls, but we'll all gladly agree with any rants you'd like to get out.

I hope you're talking about good tequila, not the cheap supermarket stuff, because that's disgusting.
-
@asdf said in The painful break up thread:

Oh, definitely. I don't known the brands very well, but I've generally found that something like $8 per shot is a good price point at a bar. Would probably be about $30 for a bottle in a liquor store?
-
@Dragnslcr The best tequila I've ever had was in an unlabeled bottle I got from my grandfather. Apparently, he had been in Mexico before I was even born and received it as a gift. Never found anything like it here in Europe. Most stores here only carry one brand (Sierra), which is beyond disgusting and only kinda-ok in cocktails.
-
There are usually at least a few different brands of tequila in liquor stores in the US. Typically, you get what you pay for. If you spend $10 on a bottle, it's going to be terrible, a $20 bottle will be okay, and a $30 bottle should be pretty good.
Mexico is, of course, on a completely different level when it comes to tequila.

I feel for you. At least your breakup won't cost you a quarter million dollars. Mine might.

I dunno about you, emo kid, but I certainly do.

I'm sorry for you, that really sucks. My partner of six years ran off with a YouTube 'celebrity' last year. I wish so hard I was joking about that last bit.
Best thing was that I picked her up from the airport, drove her home while talking about how much I'd missed her and then she told me it was over and walked straight back out of the door. If I'd know I have made her bloody walk back from London.As always it gets better slowly. A drink helps as long as it isn't the whole bottle.

Damn, I just realized I'm ageless...
-
@Tsaukpaetra So, you just have to stop having sex to stop aging? Because then I'll probably live forever.
-
Stop being pussies. You guys are an embarrassment.
Pick yourselves up and get the fuck on.
Get on with it and forget about the bitch.
-
@lucas1 I can't speak for anyone else, but personally, I'm happy I'm single right now. I wasn't whining, but trying to make a joke at my own expense.
-
@asdf he's an asshole, don't listen to him.

@kt_ said in The painful break up thread:

I know, that's why I felt the need to tell him that he's wrong and didn't even remotely manage to offend me. :P
-
@asdf you don't need two people to have a sex.
-
@kt_ said in The painful break up thread:
@asdf he's an asshole, don't listen to him.
So... don't pick yourselves up and don't get on with it?
The asshole has a point, you know.

Yeah, that's exactly what I said. Good to know someone is listening.
Btw, when this guy has a point, it's similar to the way Trump does. He just spouts bullshit in an offensive way and even when sometimes it does stick, the way he expresses it makes you think only one thing: "wow, what an asshole."

@blakeyrat said in The painful break up thread:

If a boss is so insistent that they demand a person come to work knowing they're toughing something extraordinary out, they aren't that great of a boss. They're compromising the team in order to be a jerk.
-
We absolutely NEED assholes on occasion. Churchill was probably the best timed asshole ever. (Second was Patton, but he was a little looney too. He predicted Russia though.... so.... that's credit...)
Whether this asshole needs to be President at this moment in time, is debatable.
I'm looking for a more refined asshole. Someone that's going to tell other countries to fuck off if they want us to bend over and take it, but not go around offending everyone all the time.
It would be entertaining to have a President that successfully deals with a lot of shit for a long time, only to get plastered, go on with a state address and tell everyone "Fuck you guys, I'm going home."

@xaade you the man! :)
But let's keep the out of this one. ;)

In all seriousness when my first anniversary rolls around I'm considering suggesting that we celebrate this instead. Should push the responsibility for me to remember a date off by, oh, a couple years more at least. Maybe forever.
