Hope you guys had a great Christmas! I handed in my masters thesis the week before Christmas and I haven't felt this relaxed in months. Good times~

    mnl aaah, good luck~ When will you find out the results?

        malmon In a couple of weeks I guess. I'm pretty confident in the work, so I think the result won't be too bad. 🙂

            mnl Ah, that's good! We had to wait until the end of the year for ours, I think ^^'7

            What was your thesis on?

                malmon Hmm, it's a bit abstract. In a nutshell it was a therotical work in statistics about calculating "shape means" (see maybe Statistical Shape Analysis) in a way that is suitable when only very little data is available. I think with the exact topic I would dox myself immediately, because its extremely niche. 😛

                    Foolguy a lot of different places. other forums, 4chan ads, 8chan ads, humblebundle, our affiliates, lainchan when they were an affiliate, etc.

                      Foolguy I think the old admin/owner sent me here. Equinox. I dont remember where or how though. But word of mouth.

                        random thought: tfw no GF.

                        I'll keep trying though....

                        A co-worker of mine complemented me really well. I was honestly shocked out of my mind. I don't think my parents have come close to beating this complement. Maybe that's not good, but that's besides the point.

                        This is even more shocking when my work place is full of some weird people. Maybe not weird, but definitely a type of person. A good amount of the people at my work have tattoos, and I don't interact with them much since I'm a dishwasher and I don't really need to talk to people to do my job.

                        It's hard to say what the complement was, since it really wasn't one line, and more of the feeling and reception of the conversation. But the general idea was "You're a pretty smart and capable guy, and it's pretty nice working with you."
                        Perhaps this is what friendship feels like.

                          Yeah, It's an interesting place. It's a brewery restaraunt with a motorcycle theme and overall look pretty alright if your into that thing. It's funny though since I always stay in the back doing dishes and whatnot, I've basically forgotten what the place looks like outside of where I work. It's not a bad place though, and I've gotten to enjoy it. I feel like the peculiar staff comes from the fact that the restaraunt has such a unique theme, and that drew in the people that currently work there.

                              Foolguy Hehe, maybe they're just appreciative of minimal drama coming from you~

                                I'm not too much of a sweets guy, but mints are pretty alright. Gum as well. They aren't rich, and they give you a fresh feeling.

                                  Foolguy I find that mint tends to give me a stomach ache after a while - not really sure why. As well as chewing gum. Which is a shame, because gum's probably somewhat better for you than sweets ^^'7

                                    Started playing Arkham Horror: The Card Game. It's a so called Living Card Game (LCG) set in the universe of H.P. Lovecraft. Plays a bit like a mix of of Magic: The Gathering and a Cthulhu pen and paper campaign - it's totally great! Really pushes the limits of what I thought is possible with a "card game".

                                    I've only bought the (revised) core box so far, but I've already got tons of playtime out of it. I'll most likely buy the first expansion (or cycle) next month. The only negative thing about it, is the pricetag.... Those expansions are not cheap. 😢
