the <^> game | v. twenty-three

[Xeranz]

not that i can think of, although i'm really hoping that i can get a second job soon! i'm more excited for next month, i'm going to a twenty one pilots concert and then of course, there's halloween wooo.

^ that's awesome to hear! hopefully you have a good last few days at your job. best of luck with your interview and your move seems we all have interviews coming up haha.
> i feel bad about calling in to work today, but my body feels so horrible. i got sick from my roommate and i think it's hit its peak today </3 just gonna distract myself with learning more typology, and hope that i'll somehow be magically feeling better tonight so i can go to work tomorrow.
v are you interested in any psuedoscience? such as; astrology, typology, numerology, parapsychology, etc etc.

[Deano]

yes! enneagram and mbti placements are really helpful tools to better understand how to connect with someone. knowing someone's personality type, whether they are a family member, coworker, or life partner, can greatly influence how you converse with each other and get along. it's really useful knowledge going into any difficult or meaningful conversation. life path numbers are cool too.

^ is doing the right thing by serving their self before they serve their workplace. keep it up! no job is worth more than your physical/mental health.
> feeling lazy as i have not been to the gym this week. got braces 4 days ago and haven't been able to eat very well. also, the dishwasher in my house is broken. been handwashing my dishes, my roommate's dishes, and my partner's for three weeks. help.
v if you are an adult, what do you do for work? do you enjoy it? what is your mentality about having the job? if you are not a working adult, how do you fill your spare time right now? what do you want to do for a career?

[nah]

i work at my college, actually! between classes i work in our campus' registration room
in which i help students (largely former high schoolers) get signed up for their classes
amongst other small things, like printing schedules or helping set up things like payment
for said classes. as part of that, i also give campus tours and answer live chats on our website!
im awfully good at those things mostly.

if i had to say anything, i do like my job, but the attitude of the people i work with has been
grating on me recently, as it's very clear people have noticed how relatively easy the majority
of the job is and dont want to learn to give tours/chats because of it, which bothers me a lot
since i wind up taking a lot of the load of that work as a result. other than that, i enjoy it! it's
a pretty good money maker for work im good at (memory + i like to help) and my boss is hoping
to give me a promotion soon since "im the only one who knows things". it'll look nice on a resume
and i hope it'll get me a leg up for customer service and stuff when i get a proper internship at a
funeral home. long answer, sorry!!!

EDIT: to answer the question below, i just find it interesting! it's adjacent to the medical stuff
i know i wouldnt be able to handle but a similar alley of interest. that and i used to be really afraid
of cremation, but things like caitlin doughty's videos brought out intrigue to combat that fear so, yay!
although i wouldnt really like to own a funeral home, just work at one!

^ YIKES not all those dishes... i do hope you get to the gym soon though, and i undertsand
the braces stuff! i had them for quite a few years when i was younger and my god, eugh
trust me, (un-flavored) brace wax and those special flossers will become your best friend

> i had a biopsy to remove this weird bump below my chin ive had since middle school today
and while im glad it's gone (and also, hope it's not cancerous? probably not) i have like a
comedically large bandage on my chin. it's overlapping my lip and makes it kind of hard to
eat and talk since opening my mouth like, unpeels it a bit. it wont come completely off but
hooogh it's irritating me and i cant replace it with a bandaid until TOMORROW bleeeegh

v do you have a guilty pleasure media? i know people hate the term media but like, do you
have a tv show, or movie, or cartoon, et cetera that isnt amazing but you love? i am like
abnormally obsessed with this one razzie-award winning movie starring tom green. it's awful

[amajiki]

I do, my guilty pleasure is trash reality TV show mostly. However sometimes I'll binge shows that I usually think I wouldn't enjoy, and end up getting obsessed. RN I am binging Gossip Girl, and I actually am addicted, didn't think I would be from the beginning 😭😭


^ I hope you get that promotion, it sounds like you deserve it. Especially dealing with exhausting co workers, it is always the worst. Also manifesting you'll get that internship, was there a certain reason you want to go into the funeral home occupation? I've considered it myself, but I went down a different route so far
> I work at a comic shop, and I've been buying a ton of comics early lately. I also found some old comics I bought from when I was a kid, including a lot of the older pokemon comics, which are hard to come by lately.
v do you collect anything? If so, what do you collect?

[emgore]

i collect quite a few things! records, vintage lab materials, and it seems i have accidentally found myself collecting squishmallows because my family members keep buying them for me. i'm also a fishkeeper, if having an extensive amount of fish that i nurse/foster and hold in a few community tanks counts towards anything. but my favorite by far are my wet specimen/animal bone collections, all ethically sourced of course. i have my eyes on quite the expensive jar of sphinx kittens that would make a beautiful addition to it, but i keep finding myself spending my savings on tattoos, which... i guess counts as another collection i seem to have accumulated. my entire apartment is trinketville.

^ comic collecting sounds so fun! i never got into them myself, but i get the appeal. i bet the pokemon ones are cool to look at! makes me want to blow the dust off of my switch and play violet again lol.
> realizing that i tend to ramble on this thread a lot. sorry to everyone that's been subjected to my babbles. but can i just bring up the fact that i am so excited to get my tattoo on the 17th and get my knee absolutely blasted.
v same question as before, do you collect anything/have a collection of things that you're proud of?

[paevent]

Littlest pet shop, I try to anyway, the old 100 of them are from when I was a kid, haven’t gotten many new ones in a bit

^ duuuude that tattoo is gonna be so cool good luck! Your collections are very interesting and neat
> not sure what career path to go down. At this point I believe I’m not meant to work anywhere, I could apply to be barn manager at the horse vet I work at but idk it hasn’t necessarily been a vibe for me. Love horses and animals but I’ve decided physical labor is not for me. Basically, I still haven’t found a job I’d be okay with staying at
v do you have a favorite piece of clothing?

[nah]

YES oh my god! i have this re-animator t-shirt (one of my favourite films) from the store cavitycolors
it's a tie-dye neon green, oversized t-shirt with an AWESOME print of hill holding up his head with the
caption "WHO'S GOING TO BELIEVE A TALKING HEAD?" and it is SO cool!! a close second are these knit
dresses by dressed in lala and a chrissa sparkles sweater dress in mint and pink. never failed a math test
in the latter! i never get to wear the re-animator one but it is my absolute favourite thing in the world

^ i believe you'll find one! i also think there's no harm in trying some jobs out even if you dont think
you'll like them since there could be like the 50/50 chance you do all of a sudden. point being, i think
you've got a chance, so dont give up!

> aieee im gonna dip a little too much into my spending in a couple days and it BOTHERS ME GRRR
how one does not feel bad spending money oh i will never know

v simple question! what's your favourite movie? why's it your favourite?

[amajiki]

my favorites tend to change, but I know one that I'll always rewatch is the Deadpool movies. However I've been really attached to the how to train your dragon movies as well

^ that shirt sounds amazing, I opened up the cavitycolors store, and wow they had so many cool options. Also felt that with spending money, the wallet hurting along with our souls fr
> I have a fortnite addiction y'all, I thought it would be a phase, but the 1000+ hours suggest otherwise
v do you have a favorite video game? or a favorite video game genre? (farming, tower defense, etc )

[dusekkar]

roguelike deckbuilders. its a very specific genre but its my favorite! my favorite game in general is... tboi

^ god. thats how i felt when i first booted up roblox again in 2021. after multiple games with 200+ hours in them and at least 300$ spent i do not think its a phase...
> just spent 40 minutes making a trashy pop playlist for cartman. he is a pop girl but like a specific type of pop yknow. i hate that out of everything im hyperfixated on CARTMAN from SOUTH PARK why couldnt i have gotten like. idk good at math autism or something and not cartman autism. its so embarrassing. its so bad that i got a cartman beanie with the little tassels and i wear it everywhere its so cute BUT ITS SO EMBARASSING. i am so cringe but at least i know it
v what is your most embarrassing interest. if you dont think any of your interests are cringe share an embarrassing memory

[vi‎ ‎]

umm im a valorant enjoyer... i hate telling people that LOL i just say i like fps games when ppl ask me what type of video games i play
^ LMAO i mean if u like it that's all that matters. i make silly twilight playlists for alice cullen too i love making character playlists
> i bought a newjeans album today and finally got gifts for my friend that im shipping out soon!!
