Here is ramdomthought!

[hooplah]

definitely more articulate in writing (when i actually try)

when i speak i'm super colloquial. every other word is a swear word, "like," or "dude." i curse like a sailor, even when talking to my parents.

also i'm cringing at the memory of a phone interview i had for a job in college in which i said "decor" instead of "decorum"

[eufemism]

I sound bumbling and lame in both writing and speaking.

Today pretty much sucked and it's not over yet. To start of the morning I took a geography test that i should have aced, but i have that nagging feeling that i'm gonna get a bad grade. Then i was almost late to my chemistry discussion but managed to get there because I started speed walking. There was actually some old lady speed walking around and I could barely keep pace, so there's that. Then I went totally and completely blank during a quiz even though I have no margin of error because I already messed up three of the quizzes.

Man, school is stressful. I honestly just make the stupidest mistakes when it counts the most and I have no one to blame but myself.

today I found out I get a 15% discount at oki-ni through work, which is a bit surprising and a bit dangerous

[ramdomthought]

if this thread is any indication i'm the most eloquent writer alive

[RomanEmpire]

I mumble sometimes in person especially if I'm not in a good mood, doesn't help that I have a bit of a lisp. My writing is good but nothing amazing either. I feel like I lack vocabulary both when writing and speaking

[Vaeltaja]

Depends on the day. I can mumble and butcher English whether I'm speaking it or writing it if I'm just feeling incoherent that day.

[===]

I start about 90% of my sentences in real life with "um" or "uh."

[smiles]

I can't write very well informally but for papers and stuff I'm pretty good. I've been told I speak softly to the point that I'm hard to understand.

[kyung]

the only sentence i say on a regular basis is, can I have/I'll take a large iced coffee

the rest is incoherent grunts and mumbles at my roommates

[can-]

how you doing

take it easy

see you around

take care man

[===]

People tell me to just say nothing when I'd normally say "um/uh," but then I just end up with three seconds of awkward silence while I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to say. It annoys me and probably annoys the people I'm talking to but I don't know how to fix it. :/

[bels]

Silence is fine if you're working out what to say.

[Catfush]

Be sure to look thoughtful when you're silently putting your thoughts together. Don't want to be silent while looking dumbfounded.

[sparkyoriental]

while on the topic of speech, how often do you use swear words?

where do you come from?

are there any words commonly described as a "swear" or "curse" words that you feel uncomfortable using?

what is the most creative use of fuck in a sentence?

etc.

[seth83292]

I'm from norcal so I say extremely a lot actually.

If I'm around close friends the swears flow readily and regularly. I don't feel as comfortable swearing around people unless I've hung out with them at least twice in an informal setting.

I can't bring myself to say cunt, or bastard; not for any real moral reason, they just don't sound right coming out of my mouth. Or any "british" swears. One of my friends I used to know got really into the BBC and their shows and started to say stuff like mate and twat and knob and stuff and it sounded awful.

[charybdis]

I've been told that I'm surprisingly profane. I'm pretty demure in all other aspects of my life minus the fact that I say fuck and shit with alarming regularity.

I think the only word I don't like to use is cunt.

I was born in california, so I say extremely a bit.

I wish I knew chinese curse words but I'm stuck with calling people "bad eggs."

[kyung]

[jrisk]

Is extremely considered a swear?

I don't swear very often out loud, mostly just in text/online and it's just run-of-the-mill stuff.

[chilljin]

any uk peeps seeing a load of neck nominations on facey b? some of them are proper bants like just been having a proper laugh at a few, rugby lads drinking pints of jager in the shower with their nob out. for the bants

some are wank though; watched some neckbeard-type who is at my uni halls awkwardly down a pint of carling sounding like a horse drinking from a tap.

[greggy]

whenever I go to post on forums I lose any trace of eloquence I might have ever had - it's quite frustrating

all I can write are one-liners and I tend to forget what I was talking about mid-sentence

[freddy]

I have too many fucking thoughts, feels, and am never finished with absorbing all sorts of information needed to compose what I want to articulate in writing. It ends up always being unsatisfactorily inconclusive despite the meticulousness in my endeavors literally.

so sum times i jus watn2type like dis :/

[swatfishy]

[starfox64]

DMX and George Zimmerman are going to box.

Fuck everything about this.

[ballast]

tonight is my turn to plan date night and i'm taking her out to see the lego movie in 3d. i don't know why she puts up with me sometimes.

she did make me see best man holiday though. at least the lego movie is supposed to be great.

[sensodyne]

Lamost drunk messaged someone on faceobok last night who I had met and had an an awkweard/nice interaction with at the club last night. Glad i didnt, the person i found was just a lookalike.

thank god

[sparkyoriental]

oh god oh god oh god

I'm a jerk.

My friend is seeing a girl whose name is BeeGee. We all go out last night and everyone is getting kinda messy, myself included. According to my friends, I spent the latter half of the evening referring to her as BJ, and apparently she corrected me a few times but gave up after a while. Nooooooo

[rublev]

All my applications are in for art school now and i feel weird. Such a concentration of ideas / thinking in such a short period of time... i feel like i put a lot of work into my portfolio and now it's all out of my hands. I was pretty lost / confused after i finished my degree..., and then i did a postgrad degree thinking, oh hey i just need to do this and THEN i'll figure out what i want to do!! That's a lie. It doesn't exist. I've felt more happy doing my portfolio over the last few months than i have in so many years. Not that i wasn't happy doing my other degree..., but it was a different set of rules for my brain. Looking back it felt very clinical... lots of information and analysis but for what? I did international law / strategic studies - focusing on the Middle East / Caucasus, looking at whether targeted killing is legal etc etc. It was just INFORMATION..., here's my analysis on THIS EVENT to a small portion of people who care but will almost certainly in every instance disagree with what i have to say but in the end what we all churn out is of little significance. I did a 4 month internship for a risk analysis agency and all i did was pretty much tell people who paid us (the company i mean) how many people died in one location, how they died, and whether they should risk going there or not. Am i meant to feel better?

I'm rambling but what i'm trying to say is that if there's something you enjoy or something that makes you feel good about yourself or gives a sense of relief, take that road!

I'll probably find out over the next month whether i've got an interview for any of the schools i've applied for. I have a feeling in my gut, i don't want to jinx anything. But i have a feelings. I don't know what it's trying to tell me. Realistically..., i shouldn't get in. I decided late on to do this, and completed a portfolio in just 3 months on my own while working. But all i can do is wait for now. My top choice is Glasgow School of Art (i have no idea if people here will know what i'm talking about). I haven't cried in a long long time but i'll be a doubled over mess if this works out.

edit: actually, that's a lie, i have cried quite recently.

[venilla]

my dad was wondering why i was in the shower for so long and asked me if i was masturbating and told me not to do it in the shower since it can clog the drain...

i was singing tokyo police club/impersonating random rapper adlibs and got too "into it" and forgot how long i spent showering

[ramdomthought]

yay my bedroom is almost sorted. I've gotta get some hooks on the walls for my pants and move my desk/chair but otherwise I'm there.

Feels good

[maj]

contract phones are disgustingly expensive, how do people afford these things, £37 a month and it's tied to me for 2 years! forget that.
