I wasn't clear enough, I know. It happens I have a childhood trauma with doctors. I can't see one. Eh...

Most if not all the doctors I ever had have just been incompetent, like how my main one thought an ear infection I had was "eczema in the ear" :boon: Don't get me started on how they tried to diagnose me with PCOS [tests proved negative], among other things.

What the heck? But the ear infection wasn't anything to do with skin issues, am I correct?

I feel as if I'm the only one I know who has not had troubles around doctors. Doctors have been the nicest, most helpful people I've ever known.... Maybe it's because they're Canadian. In fact all the doctors I've been to, they're some of the best memories I've ever had. Lions, Lee, Icherst, they each treated me like they were a loving father.

Me it isn't because doctors were bad for me, but being an hypochondriac and trypanophobiac does not help.

I suspect this is only to kidnap you afterwards and sell your organs.

Precisely, which is why I type without a heart.

My family members keep calling me asking if they can come over the next day and I'm like sure. But because they know I have strange sleeping patterns they always ask me to call when I wake up.

So my smart arse does this:
"Call when you wake up"
"OKay"

*wake up at 4 o clock, work until like 8 or 9* *Call them*

"Oh, I guess you just woke up, well its too late to drive over now. We'll come tomorrow."

*same scenario over and over again*



Sigh. When will they fscking ever learn -__- I get so tired of them calling me. And if they do know that I'm up somehow, like seeing me post on a site they go to, they start calling me 7,8, 9 times a day.


And it gets annoying when my grandma calls me every night........every. night. Doesn't she know I have better things to do then to talk to her old arse? I can't wait to move away and OOPS~ forget to tell them my number or address.

My TV and my PS3 can't read this "unsupported file type". It's an xvid(with some extra nonsense after that) my comp can read it. But it only plays the music. Stupid windows media player....I really need to get VLC on my new comp.

Basically, what you said :P. VLC is amazing as a video player because it's codex free - so it runs nearly everything (except maybe MP4s, I can never get them to work without Quicktime. I can't believe there is still a use for that old, unloved video player!)

And basically, my problem is this:
Electoon wrote:- Something, really really weird is gone on with the main computer (the one where I said Firefox was infected). I was looking at some old schoolwork in my old science folder - checking out the artwork is some projects about steam driving turbines and nuclear radiation. Suddenly, these random American voices started coming through the headphones. I had nothing up on the computer asides from a copy of power-point, Microsoft Word and an explorer window, so it wasn't coming from Media Player or an Internet browser. I had not heard this before in my life, so it wasn't a file from the computer. It sounded like an educational radio programme, and nothing could be found in the task manager to turn it off. And here is the scary bit - the voices were of these American children (perhaps teenagers) talking to this chap called Dr. Nelson. And they were talking about steam driving turbines and nuclear radiation. The exact thing I was looking at when it started :shock:

The only way to stop it was restarting the computer, and even then, they continued chatting even when the Windows is shutting down screen was off. I have to admit it was slightly amusing, but I'm now really concerned about the power of this virus, and no-one can figure out what to do....

EDIT: I've just realised that that reads like some weird dream. It's just that mad :fou2:
There appears to be no help on the Internet for any of the problems related to this strange threat. The other thing is every time I use Firefox a new tab keeps appearing by itself to a strange website called 9000pounds.com, which tells the story of some bloke who earned 9000 pounds (duh) by using these casinos. They aren't even sleazy casinos like you'd expect from an infection based pop up - they are just ordinary, legitimate casino websites. Weird :?

Dammit, I've just come back from saying one last goodbye to my aunt and uncle at the hospital, now I feel sick and empty. They were a hundred times the parents my real ones ever were.

Sometimes I really feel like I would want to help someone but I know that there is no way I can. Really a bad and disappointing feeling. :|

Oooh yes, I know that feeling inside and through.


So this is what it feels like to wake up one day and find out that the two most inspirational people in your life since a young age are gone far before their time. Now I'm just standing here, alone like I used to be, except this time it isn't the fault of my own ignorance.

I really feel your pain, I was very depressed when my grandfather passed away. I was just a few days short of finishing a wonderful present for him (a beer mug made of wooden clips, I was helping my father with it), when he died. It was one of the most important days of my life.

I'm sure he would have been more than grateful for your present. Keep it on your desk, as a token of his remembrance.

I'm back already. My uncle was already dead and my aunt died within minutes of my arrival.

Thank you Rayfist and Haruka.

You want to know why I only got there in the nick of time? My mother is a complete hypocrite. I decided to quickly eat a croissant before we left so i wouldn't throw up from hunger, and then she begins yacking at how I'm making her wait for me. Then, she begins complaining about what I'm wearing (a suit, what's te problem? I thought it looked great), and we end up getting delayed forty minutes because she was forcing me to keep trying different things on. What did we end up going with at the end? The suit. Because of her I was too late for my uncle, and I barely had time to get a word out of the lump in my throat to my aunt. I am so fucking angry with her right now, but I haven't said a word.

I don't think I should rant about my problems here... Just making friends was always a HUGE issue all my life.. Just talking about it makes me feel alittle better I guess.
