My Life is Awesome and Devoid of Problems

Reviews, Videos, and Everything Else The Finer Things

In response to Moose, Alex, Tharuz, Beorn, Moose, Tharuz, Sirc and Tharuz’s “My life is sad and bad things are happening to me” threads on LLL and CTC, I just want to gloat about how incredibly awesome my life is right now.

School? It’s going swimmingly. I’ve got a 3.6 at Michigan, I’m on schedule to graduate on time next spring. Over the past semester, I had a chance to learn to read Manchu, in a class that was held because of a petition that the professor and I had put together the previous year. There are few feelings so academically gratifying as being able to take a class that only exists because you asked the university to have it.

Women? Couldn’t be going better. I was in kind of a bad relationship (we fought a lot) at the beginning of the year, but we’re doing much better since we broke up. For the first time in my life, I’m really enjoying being single. There’s a girl I’ve been sort of seeing, but it’s a very relaxed, low-pressure kind of relationship.

The Future? I’ve started working on a Fulbright application to go to Mongolia in 2010. I plan on going there for the dual purpose of learning to read classical mongolian (I already read classical Chinese and Manchu, so this seems like the next logical step), and to study the “Three Manly Sports” of Mongolia - archery, horseback riding, and wrestling. I’m hoping to study, compete in, and get my ass handed to me in all three. I’ve never sat on a horse or held a bow before, but I’ve found a couple friends who are willing to introduce me to the basics of horsemanship and archery over the summer.

Art? I’m slowly learning to play guitar, and I’m taking a music class next semester which should help be develop quite a bit. In my spare time, I make stuff out of chainmail/scale mail/wolf’s teeth, and I become more metal by the day. I think I might make another thread just to show that stuff off.

What can I say? In this world, there is fortune and misfortune, and it strikes us all in turn. All weal gives way to woe, and then again to weal.

I’m going to celebrate my weal while I have it.

Hey, my life’s pretty good right now too.

3

Mine too! I’m not working, but instead laying around and training all day!

Way to go guys. You make my slow leak in my right rear tire seem like such a big problem now. Fuckers.

5

You are skinny like 3moose1 and have long girly hair.

HA!

yah but the mightymcclaw is the prettiest girl that posts on this site! More power to her!

You have no idea just how pretty I am.

Edit: I’m adding that to the reasons my life is awesome.

You sound like a massive dork and your hair looks like a hovel for lice and disease.

THIS THREAD IS NOW ABOUT TEARING DOWN MCMOOSE’S IVORY TOWER!!!

My dorkiness runs deeper than you could ever fathom.

11

The only way you could be dorkier is if you quit BJJ and did TKD, Archery, and Ballet.

12

This sounds like a good time to ask - are Mega Jesus-san and Sarcasto the same person, or is there some other reason why I can’t tell them apart?

13

your ignorance is the first of many chips in your gilded facade

14

I’m gonna go ahead and say that my lack of personal knowledge of MJS isn’t a serious problem in my life.

15

But your lack of personal knowledge of Sirc is

16

Good for you. My life is also equally as awesome, I do feel for the ones who’s lives suck.

Reasons Number 7: My house. In particular, living on the third floor of my house.
It’s currently 25 degrees outside. I’m wearing a tank top. The window is open.
After spending junior living in the world’s smallest and most poorly insulated hellhole, this house is amazing.

18

Strike me down, and my dorkiness will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine!

19

We’re not fooled.

Now my head will explode if I don’t post this…
