Rants: Everyday Venting

[Alistair]

That's just how groceries work Kitty. My aunt buys them every week too.

Excuse? I legit don't have the money to buy groceries every week. I have just enough to try and stock up for a month and the food only lasts a week between two people because I have about $140 to spend on food. 

[Cecilia Peromi]

Oooh... I understand now. That's rough, perhaps you should try your best to ration it out in order to make it last. Unfortunately.... unhealthy food is less expensive than fruits and stuff. It's very wrong.

[Alistair]

Yeah, that's something else that irritates me. Grossly unhealthy food and canned bullshit is cheaper than fresh produce. Fortunately if I shop around enough I can find at least half decent prices on stuff like canned peaches, carrots, and potatoes.

Canned food isn't always bad, though and that all sounds good never tried peaches though but carrots and potatoes.

[Cecilia Peromi]

Peaches are delicious.

On Topic: I always hunch my back, it's a really bad habit and it's starting to affect my spine.

[Alistair]

My yellow pages app told me the bank was open today. It didn't specify it was drive through only day. I walked all that way in the blistering cold for nothing.

[Alessia Starfurr]

That is a rip... next time use google if you can

I think it's kinda sad to see so many people are leaving the forum without a word. I've also seen several times the forum would not b the same without them, but after they're gone without a word I don't see anyone saying that they're missing them until they come back... if they come back in the first place... Okay, now I have to admit I have a habit of staying away for weeks without notice sometimes, but never permanently. The amount of people leaving TFF also seems to have grown as well, and I wonder why.

Not only that, but there are several new people who register here, write their introduction topic and then simply disappear within two days. What is the point of creating an account and writing an introduction post if you're not going to use it anyways?

Ya know we had that last issue at the forum I was before that, it's sad to see people go, I feel  this place is great for talking to other furs.

It used to be really good for meeting new people and generally finding a friendly environment, but as I complained about before, we've been getting a lot of the problems that seem to follow this fandom. (Furaffinity in particular is a good example of what I'm talking about)

Especially when they iniciate a conversation through pm, then disappear

[Cecilia Peromi]

.....What problems?

[The Past]

It's normal for people to lose interest in the forum and for new members to take their place. It's nothing new with online communities in general. I used to go on a Pokemon forum ten years back (oh wow, that's a long time ago), and all the other active members I was familiar with left and were replaced by a whole new lot. I ended up losing interest in it too, so I left as well. On TFF, I've had friends come and go throughout my time here. This is just another wave in the cycle.
Forum activity is a lot like in offline reality; people find new interests, or various events stray them toward another path, and they move on to newer pastures.

OT: I clearly haven't given up my love of Pepsi. I used to joke about being obsessed with it in my early days here.
Unfortunately, I need to part with it until I get my weight under control. I got one 2 liter to finish, and then it's time to attempt a healthier lifestyle.

I stopped drinking pop about 5 maybe more years ago.

So I'm pretty sure I messed up my right foot somehow. Friday it was killing me like mad, and moving/standing a certain way was making my toes fall asleep. Today it's been on and off in terms of the pain.

From the outside, it almost looks like it's starting to turn into what my left foot is right now. And of course if I go to the doctors, they're gonna push more for the surgery that is gonna be expensive and take a lot of time off of my work, which I can't afford for myself or the department x.x

[Cecilia Peromi]

You can't sacrifice your health Nrien. If the doctor's say you need the surgery then you probably do. Don't put it off or it could get even worse.
