Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

Yeah but my problems are more in the accurate motoric skills, it is harder for me to write small letters than it is for me to draw a general shape. It is easier for me to express myself orally because it is easier to understand. In the end it all goes to accurate motoric skills. So being something like a jewelcrafter is most certainly not for me.

I am way late in responding, but re: the road rage went wrong that caused an armed suspect to be on my campus, apparently some sort of fender-bender happened and the guy got out of his car waving a gun at the person in the other car, who called the police and then the armed guy ran off, but got caught when he came back the next day for his car.

They watched his car and waited for him to come back and got him the next day?? [lol]

In related news concerning automobiles and the law, a Barbie Jeep belonging to two young girls was left in the street behind their father's car after the battery died. Police noticed the child-sized jeep and ticketed the vehicle, the charge being "Illegally abandoning a vehicle".

The ticket had no fine, just the standard warning to the owners that the vehicle had to be moved within 72 hours. A warning the officer who left the ticket took upon himself to settle by picking up the children's Jeep and moving it safely into the driveway.

@Lior, do you also have trouble actually with the act of writing? By that I mean the pen or pencil will be uncomfortable in your hand and will be bothering you a lot?

I could be wrong here Matt, but I think in a way Lior means both.

If I'm wrong here Lior, please say so.

Well, the reason I brought it up and it sounds possibly like the same thing Little Pony has - Dysgraphia. Just probably a milder issue of it. He gets a special accommodation for it in school whenever anything has to be done on paper.

I know exactly what you're thinking, don't worry - although here in the UK it's more commonly known as dyspraxia.

My GPS was broken on Monday, when I used it because I actually needed it.

It would keep thinking I was on a neighboring road instead of the one I was on, and at one point where it actually got my position correct, the arrow slowed down and stopped following the direction I was going. Then it spazzed out again and kept thinking I was on the grass near the road, then got more lost and didn't have any idea where I was.

What a piece of crap it's turned into. It worked well for over half a decade, so I guess it must be going bad somehow. Not sure how exactly. I mean, the map is the same, and all it does is take signals from GPS towers, right?

@Lemurian, but what contract?

By Norwegian Contract Law, all contracts where it's sufficiently clear for the parties to the contract that there will be sufficient disability to fulfil the agreed obligations.

@ Bonsai: It's getting old — when was it last updated? And it's GPS satellites, not towers. Mobile phones use towers. smile

@Greenmantle It was never updated, but it worked just fine about a month prior. So being out of date doesn't explain it.

Somehow, my alarm wasn't set properly this morning and I missed my first class, and thus lost time on my midterm project.

But still, even with an extra hour of sleep, I am still too tired to really care much about it...

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay
