stop cussing so much
Yeesh...the money thing... 2 years ago

I’ve considered doing this…but there’s that thing in you that doesn’t want to quit and thus, doesn’t want to have to pay. (How do you get your quarters in the first place? I wouldn’t have enough. And then who do you give the money to?)

My main goal was to quit while I’m driving…but what am I going to do, wrestle a quarter out of my purse after getting mad at that bleepity bleep to drop it in a jar on the floor, thus making someone else cuss at me. Hey, if we all did this, we could solve the worldwide poverty crisis. Just think—the road would be full of bad drivers and clinking quarters or lots of nice drivers. NICE!



GET UP WHEN MY ALARM GOES OFF [WITHOUT CUSSING]
Oh.... 2 years ago

but there’s so much of me that does NOT want to do this. Help, help, help.

Thanks, 43frikinthings.



Quit Wikipedia (temporarily, at least)
What? You all want to START w/ Wikipedia? 2 years ago

If you’re like me (addictive nature), Wikipedia is a bad, bad place to go. The compulsive editor within has now traded other bad time-wasting habits for creating entries for Native writers who deserve entries and arguing about inconsequential facts concerning the Awesome Rad Article Prize-Winning Angelina Jolie article. Oh someone stop me please. This and Lostpedia…slowly…killing me…

So anyway, for now I plan to quit. Why? “Okay, like, I’m just going to edit this one teeny tiny little thing.” (4 hours later) “Wow, I rule. Wow, now I have about 2.2 hours to sleep. Great. I rule.”
