[Arch-Mage Matt]

My great grandmother got put in a home today

[Shadowscale]

My younger brother and i fight and blackmail each other when we get the chance. He is annoying but also fun, we are always trying to out-do each other

[Per]

My recently had big gathering in realtion to my birthday. Almost everybody arrived. Tonight I had a long, long conversation with my parents (which I have a very open and good relationship with) analysing and discussing different family members, their realtionships with us and each other and so on. It turned to be very, very emotional and touching. We talked about a lot that needed talking.

[Eltee]

That's nice. Per. Glad you have such a nice home life!

Since my Great-Grandma Carmela (I'm very Italian) got put into a nursing home, I got some of her photo albums. One OLD one picture from 1935, her wedding day photo, my Great-Grandfather who was in World War II who died when I was three, and my Great-Grandmother's brother who died in WWII. Very interesting.

Thats interesting! A few months ago I found out my Grandma (now deceased) came from Italy alone on a boat across the Atlantic when she was like 10.

Both my lines af heritage have been here before the US existed, so I have no "immigrant" blood. I can't think of a single direct relative that came from Europe to the United States after the Mexican-American War.

Exact opposite of mine. Parents born and mostly raised in Europe, brother and I born and mostly raised in the Pacific.

Now, we live in the US. We are such terrible Americans.

[Hadrianus]

My blood is mostly consistent of Danish and Irish That whole thing about the dark Irish, I have those genes

My current dads side of the family have been in a mutual shunning with my family forever now. My biological father's side of the family all despised my mother, so when he died, we never saw each other again. And my mums side is pretty much all dead, except her dad, but he had over ten kids, and mom is his illegitimate child so he doesn't really care about her, at all. In fact the last time I spoke to her dad on the phone, I referred to him as Harry, as opposed to Grandfather, and I told him he meant nothing to me, and that I wouldn't care if he died. It was in defense of my mom, who has suffered from daddy issues her whole life...

Whoopsee me. My mother's grandmother was a Mexican Indian.

[Gandalf]

My mother's pregnant! *awkward silence* 3 months in...

[MARS]

Why awkward silence? Congrats on the future sibling.

[Gandalf]

Because... 3 months and we were told yesterday... and don't say that, I really don't want to have to baby sit...

[POMC S117]

But you are Gandalf! Pull your self together! You defeated the Balrog, have probably killed thousands of orcs and you took on a Nazgul single-handedly. Watching over a sibling will be a walk in the park. Anyway, congratz.

[Per]

I feel sorry for you, Gandalf. I really do.

[Generalno1]

Do you have any other siblings? because imagnie having someone you will constantly fight with, but will also have the most in common with.

[Gandalf]

General, do you mean altogether or living with me? Altogether, it's 7. Living with me, it's 4.

[Generalno1]

woah..ok, disregard anything i said.

[Gandalf]

My siblings: 1 half-brother, 1 half-sister, 1 sister, 1 half-brother-in-law, 1, step-sister and 2 step-brothers. And 1 unborn half brother/sister.

[POMC S117]

That's complicated.

[Bailey18]

Tea got spilled on my brand new $600 laptop.
My boyfriend got a nice computer from a friend and I used it for about 4 days.
He then traded it for a better computer..Yeah ok. I like the better computer.
He couldn't pay the payments on his computer so it go repo'd.
So he builds a [&@%!] computer and takes my good computer.

How fair is that? Now I have to get on a screen that makes me sick, just to play oblivion.
I'm a little [&@%!].

[scribbane]

That sucks, but this might be better suited in here or here. Maybe a mod will come along and merge this if they deem it appropriate.

Anyway, why does the screen make you sick? Or do you just mean that its such a crappy screen that it's not worth it?

[Bailey18]

Ahh oops. Hopefully so

I'm pregnant and everything makes me sick. Plus he uses a 72" tv as a monitor. My monitor is a 17" so there isn't as much motion going on and I don't get nautious (sp), but he doesn't understand that.
