Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

i think you are awesome people
but right now i want to pick you up and shake you really hard :P
complaining about being in the 99th percentile of smart people when you could possibly have been in the 99.1th percentile is impossibly frustrating for a guy who has failed in academia as miserably as me to read

Beefcake.
- Done better in school
- Did internships
- Hadn't cheated on my first long-term boyfriend at the height of my depression
- Hadn't dated the guy I cheated on my boyfriend with (that dude was a pretty bad boyfriend)
- Hadn't started talking in [chat] earlier than I did due to my social anxiety even breaching out into my internet life
- Hadn't talked myself out of trying harder in art
- Hadn't talked myself out of going to art school like I wanted to because "LOL, WHO MAKES A LIVING OFF OF ART?"
The second to last one is why I'm so bad "meh" with art now, but I at least have people supporting me in my journey to get better at it so I can make something of myself, despite my feeling that I am too old to start attempting it.
Sorry >.>
If there is one thing I am it is a mess of conflicting and contradictory thoughts and desires.
After lunch
When I hit 30, I had some moments where my regrets seemed overwhelming. Then I realized there wasn't a lot I could do about them. So I could get all obsessive about the mistakes I made or I could move forward.
Come on Casual. We already have Bethryn, we don't need someone else to make people feel like they're never allowed to feel like they're struggling due to privilege.
Oh, well I have LIVED overseas, just not for academic reasons.
it's one thing to strive for improvement, it's quite another to be in denial about your own achievements no matter how good they are

You tease
I think that's kinda universal though? Or maybe not universal, but "I don't deserve this, I just got lucky" is a really pervasive line of thought! It's in every corner of my life and kinda hard to shake.
we talked the whole flight and she was pretty awesome
can't recall regretting much else
ed: I regret not asking I mean

I just burped up some chipotle tinged stomach acid
One of those is being fixed now, the other might just be something I have to live with.
Otherwise I've done all right for a poor farm kid from Florida.
That's fucking awesome.
I haven't really done much of anything as of yet, but then again I'm only 24.
it's also very unhealthy when taken to extremes
as long as you didn't have someone else doing your assignments for you what else could you have done to "deserve" your merits?

Damn, I'm 27. It feels weird being one of the older ones in the room([chat]).
EDIT: What the crap is 'one' possessing here? Stupid me and grammar.
Current Playthroughs: Neverwinter Closed Beta|Let's Build! Sim City
That's the annoying thing about it. Like I know obviously I've done all right to well in various aspects of things. But I don't feel like I have. I can't really internalize a lot of my accomplishments. So I am stuck with this vague feeling of being completely out of water.
I dunno. It's kind of hard to explain. Leads to some kinda panicy "Oh god I can't handle this what am I dooooinnnnnng" moments.
Should i give updates about how this 9-day game project will go?
Like CCGs? Check my CCG's Thread in CF and help me playtest it!
i should bail from "life achievements [chat]" before i decide to hang myself
gonna play FF8 instead
later [chat]s

27 is not old.
25 is totally mode age and possibly median, there are scatterings of younger people and a significant amount of older people.
Like you're probably like 60th percentile or so.
I have never played that one : (
Enjoy.
tis only regret that life is wasted
25 IS OOLLLLLDDDDDDDD
(well, based upon how my body is falling apart)
When PA began
I was the target audience
I mean, I still am, but I was a college kid. I was PRE-COLLEGE kid. I didn't join the forums until maybe beginning or midway through school but I lurked for a long ass time.
So yes, it's not even weird that there are 30+ year old PA'ers.
I'd like to point out that I purposely avoided this joke.
but then I figured out when she said sophomore she didn't mean college (non-US peeps: that puts her at about 16). She did not look like she was fucking ten years younger than me.
Hmm.
I just had a will smith moment
