Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

My alias has an odd reference, but either way I think it's neat.
Mainly did it because it was the namesake of a rather unique moogle.

Trying to find a copy that isn't dubbed...
Foreign films or even cartoons/anime that aren't spoken in the native language has always bothered me. Though once in awhile you get decent voice actors that can make dubs worthwhile.

Well thanks for reminding me that movie, brb suiciding.

I really like it but it's still kinda hngggg

Mmm...I should make myself lunch...but the kitchen is so far away...

Oooh the US-Boys leading 8-3 against the Sbornaja at the ice hockey WC quarter finals.. Subprise, surprise.

Apparently I get to go to a grill out today for a friend's bday. Sweet.

Free food, woo!

Right?!

Get to go to work with a stomach full of free food tonight! WOOOOT!

Speaking of cook outs... pretty stoked about those bacon hot dogs. Bacon *** hot dogs. God, yes.

Also had a super religious woman come in today while I was checking.

She saw my earring.

"I love your earring, I assume that means you believe in God?"

"Noooo... not really... I just enjoy crosses."

"Oh, well I appreciate your honesty."

She then proceeded to talk to me a bit about her daughter (like seriously making her sound like an amazing girl to the point I felt like she was selling her to me. XP) and the church she goes to and told me to come to a sermon on Sunday... I think she's trying to not only convert me but also set me up with her daughter. I couldn't stop laughing. XP

Her daughter is probably fat!

Ding ding ding. I totally assumed that. XP

Though apparently she plays basketball. Idk... Most of the women around here who play basketball in college are pretty fit.

When will you meet the daughter?

Never! Because there are very few reasons you could get me to willingly go to a sermon of any kind. :D

Before you ask. Yes, most of those reasons involve a woman somehow dragging me there.

Edit: I suppose that's not really willingly...

Meh, close enough.

I might be wrong but didn't you say it is hard for you to get dates due to your working times just yesterday? Don't know how long the sermons take but might be worth to endure it. You even safe money for not having to buy a hot drink to get a look on her ;)

The thing is just going to it makes me feel like I'm lying. I don't have interest in their or any religion and I can tell they're very... strong believers in their faith. I have nothing against them and I don't mind talking to them at all but I know what happens in relationships where the religious beliefs of both parties are two completely different worlds and I'd rather not waste my time.

I'd want nothing to do with anyone religious enough to try and convert me. You run, Spath. Run hard and fast and long.

The daughter might be different, shouldn't factor in the mother's faith.understandable reason, but didn't you allready tell the mother that you don't believe like her? Shouldn't need to feel like your lying.

In my experience, saying you don't believe like someone else doesn't always matter. A religious friend of mine, who has always been respectful of my beliefs, tried hooking me up with a guy friend of hers from church once. He was cool with me not believing like he did, or said he was anyway. Wasn't too long before it became too obvious he was trying to change my views to match his. Lie now, convert later!

Essentially when people invite me, or usually anyone, to something like this, especially in Iowa, it is assumed that means you are showing interest in their religion.

I have no interest, at all. I've gone to sermons before, around the time I started to question my ability to accept a faith. The second any of them catch a wiff of the fact that I don't believe or question anything they do it begins to turn into a lot of questioning and argument over why I don't and why I should.

I'm not saying all faiths or congregations act like this, but when the overwhelming majority do it I find it hard to convince myself it is worth my time to waste their time. I don't want to question my own faith at this time, I have done so before and I decided quite sternly I don't believe and that perhaps later in my life I will question it again, when I have become more stable and I find it a more pressing concern.

Spath, you should come to my flute recital. :3

What is your reasoning...

If seeing those was anything new by that point you and I were watching different versions XD

Spath-kuuuun!

/reads back

Woman using her "daughter" to lure Spath to a sermon....
The church is getting sneaky in their tactics now-a-days....

Well ok... When and where am I going?

Yes?

XP I was waiting for a comment like this. I'm glad it was you, Uri.
