ok then... i tryed.... maybe you just need to go out with people you feel safe with first off...

however if you dont have any actual friends then it may be hard (i'm not trying to be offensive here but it is a pickle none the less)...

im not offended, its true  :-\
i have zero friends IRL
and ive lost my real friend online as well now so im stuck here too
i never seem to be able to make friends now though
i had a couple of people talk to me when i went out on saturday, but i screwed both up. and one of them was definately because of my AS - he was being sarcastic and i missed it and looked like a twat so he went off to talk to someone else lol

I bought an NVidia 512Mb vid card for thirty six bucks. There must have been a problem with the pricing system, because it is a two hundred and eighty dollar card, but I saw the price and whipped out my checkbook, before the store opened.

No, sorry.
It was corrected within the hour. The price should have been two hundred thirty five ninety nine. I feel a little bad, but not bad enough to take it back. I will find a use for it and honor their mistake in that way for years to come.

Their mistake, don't feel bad about it.  Maybe thats unethical of me to say that, but, I'v been ripped off too many times to sympathize with the "corporations".  And since they pay their employees shit wages and benefits, .........well you get what you pay for.  Their problem, not yours.  Enjoy!

I bought a "Voltron, Defender of the Universe" t-shirt.
I used to love that show when I was a kid, I drove my sisters crazy talking about it. So I will wear that shirt when I see them next. :D

That's the way I am justifying it in my mind. There may be benefits to this "shit job,"  but I will have to be ready to harvest them when they are ready for picking.

I found that another employee bought a dual core laptop for four hundred bucks. It should have been fourteen hundred bucks. the same mistake!
