Update for Everyone III - The Whinge Binge

[DavidB.]

F**king air conditioning. It's f**king everywhere. In every. Damn. Building. I went to LA Israel to finally get some warmth, and instead I end up freezing like an idiot. And now I thing I caught a cold. A f**king cold in LA in SeptemberIsrael in August!!!

And it wastes billions of dollars. And pollutes the environment. F**king disgusting.

This sounds quite familiar. Fixed it to cover my experience with Israel and the persistent habit of "over-airconditioning".

I've been elected President of my schools Student Council.

Mazal tov!

Went to the old strip club (properly) for the first time in my life. Whilst I wasn't my cup of tea, I understand the attraction.

I never did that and don't plan to ever do so, but some of my friends went to such a place recently - in the Amsterdam red light district, of course. One of them tried taking pictures. He got beaten up by a bouncer. I hope you didn't have such an experience

On account of the city-wide threat of a college campus shooting at 2pm tomorrow, I will be taking my 2nd intentional unexcused absence during my time here. Better safe than sorry in spite of the low chance considering my classroom is the "open-room design" in the lobby of the building with by far the highest traffic. Seems like no one will be going to class tomorrow across the city from what I'm hearing. #StuffHappens

Where does this threat come from?

You must be logged in to read this quote.

That's all we've gotten.

Hmm. It seems pretty weird for the university to send all students and staff such a message yet to stay open. I'd say either you ignore the threat because you consider it irrelevant and you keep your doors open, or you send a message and decide to close the doors and give everybody a day off because you consider the threat relevant. This is only causing confusion.

I'll be going to New York next week, but first I have to finish the biggest project for my job I did this year and write a 1500-word paper, a 3000-word paper, and a 4000-word paper for my studies...

[DavidB.]

So my roommate invited some people over in the living room while I was working on this essay and now, apparently, the entire apartment, save for my own room, smells intensely, and I mean really intensely marijuana-like. ~*sigh*~ #DutchProblems

[DavidB.]

Good to hear you're better. Take care

My mom just used the word "mansplaining", in an entirely serious way. Wow. Like, it's one thing that she's internet-savvy. It's another thing that she uses SJW words...

[DavidB.]

So I'm going to meet Ben Carson tomorrow at a book signing.

Awesome!

[DavidB.]

But the Blaze TV is my normal news source especially most of their good recent documentaries about ISIL and the Kurds that was fascinating and the one they aired tonight about Judiasm in the Netherlands and how it's hard to be a practice Jew there.

As a practicing Jew in the Netherlands, I'm curious.

[DavidB.]

My girlfriend is ill.

I have just been called a "cuckservative" for the first time in my life, by someone being unironical. By a white supremacist who happened to be Jewish, actually. One can understand: the conversation was not pleasant and did not end well.

[DavidB.]

A self-hater then?

Nah. He considered Ashkenazim white and was positive about them, and since he was Ashkenazi I don't think he's can be considered a self-hater in the literal sense, yet he denied the existence of a Jewish people, since he denies that he has anything in common with Sephardim and Ethiopians -- also using the N-word That's the moment when I lose my respect for someone. Hardly surprising for someone who thinks Ashkenazi Jews are solely connected because of high IQs and "technological progress" anyway I'm sure that's why we left Egypt... Apart from that he believed in all sorts of "alt-right" theories about Ashkenazi Jews causing "degeneracy" of "white nations" through "cultural Marxism", and he thought Jews had a responsibility for the Shoa since they were not nationalistic enough... Yeah. No.

In some way he was the no less disgusting mirror image of Guevara-loving "Jewish" campus Marxists that also don't find any meaning in the idea of a Jewish people. It made for an interesting, yet very frustrating conversation.

Just got email reminding me about an exam that I have this week. And it's for a Unit that I don't recognise, so I assume it's a mistake and send an email to my department. No, it turns out it's a mandatory unit for my course. And I've missed every single session, with no chance of catching up. Fml

Was attendance also mandatory, or can you still pass it if you pull an all-nighter?

[DavidB.]

what is a "fake job"? a job for working class people?

[DavidB.]

Currently waiting in the cinema for The Danish Girl to start.

A film about politicus?

I think Senator Richard Blumenthal is in the Seminar Room at my school library right now.


I'm in my school library.

Disgusting.

[DavidB.]

I don't agree with his policies and certainly wouldn't have voted for him, but I still think it was pretty cool. I didn't speak or even go up to him, because he was in a meeting and I had work to do.

Sure, you're right, it's pretty cool

[DavidB.]

I just got a message that my friend is in the hospital after a car accident. 

I hope he's alright.

[DavidB.]

I found a video of my question to Ted Cruz
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pH5WR-O80w8

That's awesome (and a good question)! He looks very nice in this video, not at all the villain people like to portray him as.

[DavidB.]
