Back from holiday! Doing a tour of Scotland on a motorcycle is nothing short of fantastic!! They could improve on the roads and signs though, but nevertheless amazing. Definitely going back there.__________________ I'm a geek, you're a geek. Let's trade.Lord Flasheart: Enter the man who has no underwear. Ask me why.

Just learned a coworker (one which I interacted with on almost a daily basis) was murdered last night. While certainly not affecting me directly, this is a new experience for me. After several strong drinks, I've determined I'm generally ill equipped to handle this sort of thing. They sure do a ****ty job in school preparing you for things like this. Thank you MOTL for being the place I can semi-anonymously share this.

I don't deal well with anyone dying even if I didn't know them well. Whether it is a former classmate, a coworker, etc. Unfortunately I can't really offer any advice in how to deal with it better other than just focus on other things when possible.

Remember that PTSD and depression have overlapping symptoms, and that the world and your life look very different to you when you're depressed.
Yeah I know but both my shrink and my psychiatrist found that I have ptsd since my high school due to the daily beating/insults/treats/saying that I should kill myself to make society better, all these for 5 years. Haven't done any self-harm since 2 weeks so I guess the meds are working a little bit.

You should've watched her televised match at GP Vegas. I would feel super awkward to be the opponent in that one.

I did think it was so strange that you don't see many kids or teenagers playing these days. Maybe it's only at a local level now? I just figured with the way Wizards found a way to make Standard somewhat affordable, there would be younger people trying to hop in at a competitive level.

Haven't the foggiest where that is, but it's bloody brilliant. All FNM are free of charge because... "where ya from" "Menomonie" "I didn't ask if you are rich or not, where ya from?"
