Gunna go off on a limb and say an employee was doing that and got hurt. Possibly trying to get money now....... Lawyers are making them send this out because of it.

That's my guess at least
 
So Hulu is telling me that my password is incorrect. OK but it's not. Now to test it. Go to reset password and type in that exact passphrase. Response is "this is current password..."....googled it. Apparently it's a tactic they're using to deter sharing accounts, which I'm fucking not. So if I wanna log in on this other TV that's ON THE SAME NETWORK AND HOUSE, I'll have to reset my password which of course will require that on all devices..... Fuckkkkk youuuuuuuuuu hulu

-Destination wedding that invitees pay for so already asking a lot of people.

-Someone else pays for the bar so bride/groom getting a steal.

-No gifts and bragging about it....

What the actual fuck. If you have a destination wedding, you better be paying like it's a destination wedding. You can't be cheap and have that too. Wtf. Sounds like your bf is dodging a bullet and his BFF isn't actually his BFF. The wife sounds like a cunt.

It was basically a backyard wedding but 5 hours away. No decor. Not even a sound system. They played their wedding music off their phones while walking down the isle ? and we had to pay for our own meal and drinks at the “rehearsal dinner” which was no rehearsal at all and the bride put all her drinks on my bf’s tab. Then punched him while hammered after he helped her up from slamming into a parked car ? I hate them

I seriously don't get why you would want to get married next to a shrubby bush as opposed to inside of a beautiful cathedral. outdoor weddings are gaye

And its almost always someone in a new management position that only has a background in Corporate HR.
 
The one at the Catholic University of America is super impressive. It felt like the closest thing I've seen to St Peter's in Rome. Other than that though, idk.

Most major cities have some cool old churches like that. The Mormons keep cranking out new ones they hope will age like that too, they won’t.
 
My sister is getting married in August in one of the most beautiful places I know that means a lot more to her than some stuffy old cathedral.

My sister got married at her deadbeat husbands family's house during COVID in a stuffy tent but we all got hammered and had a great time.
 
"The second you think you have everything figured out is the second you realize you don't at all" is some deep-ass shit that my mentors at work taught me.

With that being said, I am absolutely fucking over 2-year lifeguards and fireboys talking down to others while they just fuck around at work and hose people with projects and go hit-on their fuckbuddies in the coffee shop. Get your ass to work, boys.
 
I got married on the shores of Lake Jindabyne in Australia (closest town to Perisher resort). Beautiful view and I wouldn’t trade the memory at all but it was during COVID restrictions. We only had 2 witnesses and we want to have a proper ceremony one of these days with family and friends. COVID abroad was a wild time.

Bro they weren't laced with fent, you'd know. Probably just the wrong mix of terpenes for you. Also wyd taking edibles at 7 am? I swear all edibles do is make you tired for hours if you don't get blasted to space

I can't fucking take this anxiety any more, this is my 3rd season of trying to ski park and my 3rd of not getting past a 360 and a fucking box slide, I had an actual panic this morning thinking about doing a 360 off a small jump, its just getting worse each year and it's starting to get into my day to day life now. I want to quit so much, you can only try something so many times before something gives. When I get back home I'm going to the doctors to see what they say cause I can't fucking take this shit any more.
 
Yo hvac bitches. What's the deal with you fuckers not connecting common wires to the hvac system. Seriously not every thermostat can run without it. I'm putting this in the bucket of job security by forcing people to call you for service to install or connect simple things.

if something's not fun there's no reason to force it. 3s frustrated me for years so i just said fuck it and stopped trying them. worked on rails and finding transfers instead. couple seasons ago i started trying them again and made more progress than the 4 combined seasons i spent beating my head against the wall.

so many ways to enjoy skiing, no point in risking your love for the sport just to land one trick.

there are triggers but anxiety/panic is its own issue... doctors can help, pills can help but in my experience the less you fight it the better it gets. DM if you want more info, i spent way too long talking to people who understood stress but not anxiety, if that makes any sense.

The T in park SMART stands for take it easy. At the end of the day you are there to have fun. I’ve also been skiing park for a few seasons and I can barely 360, this season I hurt my shoulder trying a 3 so I spent the rest of the season just flowing thought the park doing 180s, box slides, switch 180s and straight airs, and just vibed and had a good time. I’d recommend it to anyone

same. I struggled with 3s for years, would always land them backseat and would get terrible shin bang so I stopped doing them. Was starting to get more comfortable skiing switch so I learned switch 180s, when I was comfortable with those I tried sw 3s and then switch 5s. After two seasons of only spinning jumps switch I tried 3s again and they actually made sense this time around.

I have had a very slow rate of progression over the past 15 years but still have fun with it and my body isn't broken. Sure, it can be frustrating to see your peers progress faster, but just try to do your own thing and have fun with it, because if your having fun the progression will come.

they will undoubtedly prescribe you something. i think you could stand to gain from therapy. i got an exercise for you that will help you conquer any situation. take it or leave it. ill describe it below so if your not interested you can just stop reading here lmao. i think its called a cbt triangle.

so first you wanna identify what happened in a situation that you didnt like. then you can write out what you need to do to break that cycle.

identify:

1. thoughts - when you in that panic what are your actual thoughts. whats the self narrative do you have going?

2 feelings/emotions - how do those thoughts impact what you’re physically feeling. (is your vision narrower, do you feel tense, etc) and then what emotions are you having then? (I suck at identifying emotions so i google a feelings wheel lmao)

3. Reaction/behavior - what do those things make you do??

after making that for the shit situation, you can either add interrupters to each on how you would get out of that headspace if it were to start. or, and this is what i think is the most powerful tool for any known tough situation, you write one up for how that situation goes for your ideal self. so do all 3 categories and write it out how you would imagine the perfect version of you would think, feel, and act in that situation. then just really envision yourself over and over thinking those thoughts, feeling the emotions, and acting or doing what you want. this is called making a future memory and its powerful because your mind will have this preset nuero pathway to tap into when you get to that situation. you gotta force it into the ideal state version rather than the shit one. this has helped me in difficult conversations, learning new tricks, going to uncomfortable places/events, etc.

i even go as far as creating a separate persona for my ideal self call Ibby and i will ask myself what would Ibby do, tap into that train of thought and try to act as if i am my ideal self.

i’m very into this concept and even created my own worksheet for it lol. pm me if interested lmao.
 
Mom forced me to go to some stupid ass hockey game even though she knows that big crowds and loud noises make me feel anxious and very uncomfortable. Stupid flashing lights also gave me a headache. Never again.
 
Fumbled this PC trip so heavy. Forgot my contacts, physics lab is due at 5 on Monday, and destroyed my face trying lip fast slide b2 so I will be driving home an entire 5 days early
 
Family has been doing zooms every week for the last month or so. My Aunt got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on Christmas I guess. I didnt find out till end of January.

They ended up doing the zoom yesterday instead of sunday and nobody got a hold of me. Kinda bummed. I guess she wasn't doing well and wasn't awake for it but would have been nice to see everyone.

Glad I made it to a few though and she was on and awake and talking a bit for some.

Also hadn't been back east in 3 years but went back for Thanksgiving this year at her house with a bunch of family. Definitely glad I made that happen this year. Obviously didn't expect this but yeah. Happy to have seen her.

RIP Aunt Sue
 
god fuckin dammit, my toxic ass ex committed to SLU, and ik what people r gonna say like oh u won’t see her blah blah, the school has like 2,000 kids it’s like the size of my highschool, so you are wrong. I’m not even upset about that cause it’s life but the fact she told me how much she hated it this summer when she visited and then knew how excited i was to have the chance to go there and row. Almost seems like she did it out of spite tbh

sending an email with multiple questions clearly formatted as separate questions and only receiving a response to one has got to be one of the most annoying things at work.

Mother fucker I am trying to help you, but I need to know more information to get a better grasp on the situation.

Fucking done responding until they answer the other questions.

I feel like this happens everywhere in life. People seem incapable of composing a response with clear answers to more than one question. It doesn't seem to matter if you number them, make bullet points, separate paragraphs framing each question.

This shit really gets me going dude. I won’t respond until they send the follow up “did you do this” and then I get to say “well I need to know the answers to these two questions”. Great way to make their life harder.
 
Resort mismanagement gets people hurt and/or killed. I feel really bad for this young girl i helped today who broke her back on a really shitty jump someone built.

I fucking hate skiing sometimes.
