Going see Hobbs & Shaw Saturday, it'll be far fetched action hokum that's completely over the top & no doubt I'll love every single minute of it.
Come on Aussiedocfan about time you'd kissed & bury the hatchet with The Rock.

Day made: the first episode of The Final Game (an epic length fan audio I'm a part of) has just been released, and I'm pretty excited! I get to play the Third Doctor, so to say that it's a dream come true would be an understatement! 😄

Tibetan meditation & the ringing bowls put me right out, must be a subliminal sound to those bowls. I highly recommend this. Max Richter's Sleep

It was never going to be you.

What kind of employer sends that kind of info at the last sodding minute I guess someone who needs a guy with a teleporter. But my guess would be if you had one, you would not need to apply for such a job...

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

One of my colleagues just lost her husband to an aneurysm. They’ve been married for nearly forty years. We are all gutted for her.

Our local Australian Monopoly Entertainment store (think HMV etc) Has another big % off $ale.. Got the last few superhero Blurays for my collection plus I picked up Season 11 of Who on bluray for 40% off. I can finally finish the season! When it was on tv that was the time our old tv was acting up so the screen was a lovely dark brown/black/orange colour. We were watching tv squinting at that time. Time to rewatch from ep 1

It's clearly an aptitude test for the Celestial Intervention Agency, they must be recruiting humans now after being impressed by Leela and Ace.

Not: Basically been made to feel unwanted in my own home.
It's a build of up things, but today really exemplified it. I avoid interacting with the two people I live with until we have dinner because, you know, "I'm antisocial and don't like to talk to people all the time" (yes, one of them literally said that). We usually discuss before we start eating something to watch on TV while we do so. For the last month they haven't even asked what I'd like to watch, they've simply put on what they've wanted to watch without asking. I don't really enjoy the show we're watching, but I've now had to suffer through two seasons of it and we're starting the third tomorrow. Then, as if to rub it in, they change over to YouTube and start watching Dragonball Z Abrigded - something they know I have absolutely no interest in.
Thanks guys. I go out of my way to avoid you so that when we do spend time together we can get along better, and then you pretty much exclude me from even that. Anyone remember how I was looking for a new place to live back in November? Yeah, I'm still looking. It's getting beyond frustrating, as no matter what I try to do to make the situation more bearable for them, there's absolutely no reciprocation at all. I'm pretty sure they've wanted me gone for about a year now, and much as I'd like to leave them I can't find anywhere that's prepared to accept a single person on government student payments. If I didn't already have a low self-esteem, I'd certainly have one by now...

If I didn't already have a low self-esteem, I'd certainly have one by now... Why does this sound so familiar to me? Basically describes my flatting situation while I was studying. While flatting, I met two of my still best friends. But I also met so many psychos and people who make me feel uncomfortable that I have reached my fill for a lifetime.
If you are an introvert, like me, flatting can be quite challenging. And sometimes it is pure torture. All I can recommend is that you get out of there first chance you get.
And the TV situation... I remember that my then flatmates (those were the ones I got on very well and who became good friends) used to torture me with a stupid cheap looking British TV show called "Doctor Who". They knew exactly that this was NOT my kind of thing, but problem was, this was NZ, and the living room was the one with the heater and my friend always provided home made cookies. So I was basically forced to watch their stupid show. I could not believe my eyes and I laughed out loud when the show came up with the utterly ridiculous idea of dinosaurs on a spaceship. And those idiotic Dalek creatures were beyond male cattle droppings.
But stupid TV show aside, my situation was different to yours in that I got on well with these people (And the cookies were yum).
So much so that when I felt very nostalgic a few years back, I actually made an effort to get into that stupid TV show a bit more... turns out, it is not that bad after all.
So yeah, I know how you feel. But- please do NOT accept people damaging your self-esteem. Try to be aware of what you have achieved, and what you still are going to achieve and do not let anyone, let alone some idiots flatting with you, take that away from you. I once flatted with a guy who thought he was the best thing since sliced bread and he always bragged with how great he was and what he had studied. Turns out he was only great with his mouth and never stayed longer in any job than a few months.
And he tried to tell me how useless my subject of study was. Yeah, try that again, when you have stopped failing yourself...

Flatting/studying/problem people is exactly my situation. The only distinguishing factor is one of the these people is my sister... I kind of have to put up with her acting this way or things aren't going to be so great between us in the future (and I don't want that to happen). I'm trying to get out but it's a long, very rejection-heavy process. As for the TV show, I went on a mini-rant in the "Last TV Show You Watched" thread about it. Suffice it to say, I'm definitely not going to like this show at any time in the future Not to throw a pity party, but I'm only really used to people trying to damage my self-esteem. It's gotten to the point that I find it hard to believe the few people who are actually trying to help bring me up. There's no reason they wouldn't be sincere, but when you're so used to people saying the opposite the words of those few people ring pretty hollow and meaningless. I'm trying to look at the positives - I'm 5/6 of the way through my degree for instance. Things keep getting pushed back though. I was supposed to finish at the end of last year. The way things are going, it'll be the end of next year before I finally finish it. It just feels like one step forwards, two steps back right now. I'm muddling through as best I can though, that's the main thing.
