Recently, I've been able to vent to an older coworker now and again (who, in turn, will vent to me). I suppose she's more like a work aunt or mother than a work spouse. But yes, she's the only one I really confide in. Not that I dislike the rest of my coworkers, but I don't know them well enough...

I barely respond to your comments, though.  :rolleyes: I didn't imply she should be revered for housekeeping. *You*, though, were the one who implied she does nothing but financially drain her husband just because she's a stay-at-home mother. That, at best, is an outdated and regressive...

Haha what an asinine comment (not that I'm surprised). Did you miss the part where the OP mentioned *her* contributions to the household? As for the OP, I see you decided not to pursue an affair with your friend. That's the better choice. Since you mentioned being happily married, there was no...

I'm in my 30's and also interested in movies. You're more than welcome to PM with me. :)

Monogamy ;). Unlike most of the other commenters, I'm intrigued by the idea of trading partners or getting involved in swinger groups. Provided, of course, everyone agreed to take precautions. Bareback is something that never appealed to me. I'd also have to be concerned if a potential partner...

The only one I listen to regularly is Faculty of Horror. Basically, two horror journalists examine the themes in prominent horror movies (the religious overtones of Hellraiser, the feminism in the Alien franchise). Even though the hosts joke around often, they do offer in-depth analysis on their...

Exactly. That's why the complaints about the Discovery casting make no sense. Star Trek has always showcased diversity. Why moan about something that's been a hallmark of the franchise since its origins? Sometimes I think fans miss the point of Star Trek altogether. That being said, I hope you...

...what do "SJWs" have to do with this franchise? Anyway, Richard, I have to disagree: the only Star Trek show I liked was DS9. It still feels current, probably more so than the other Trek shows. It had the best cast/characters as well, in my opinion. I wanted Discovery  to pick up where DS9...

It's fine when used sparingly. I find constant sarcasm is just tiresome, though. A straightforward conversation offers more satisfaction than constantly fending off wisecracks.

Some people don't have like any or much experience with forums (as the OP even admitted). Not to mention on some forums, old posts get erased after a certain amount of time. It's really not that serious...

I probably posted this in one of the other threads, but I'll answer again anyway. My name is taken from the iconic X-Files episode Jose Chung's From Outer Space. "Reynard Muldrake" is a name given to Fox Mulder by an author writing a book about a case involving Mulder and Scully. I've been an...

...he shouldn't feel lonely because he has a family? Not sure what you're getting at here.

Well, all I really meant is that I'm losing interest in socialization again. I didn't think about hermitage until reading your response. It seems too extreme for me. As calming as solitude can be, I also find it important to occasionally go out on my own.

The good: Due to frequent callouts, one of my least favorite coworkers has been let go. And to think, she would've been in a supervisory position too. The bad: The urge to meet people is deintensifying again.

Ha. No. Denise is a nicer character than Fox Mulder. I didn't guess the killer's identity right away because I had read spoilers beforehand. :P The spoilers didn't ruin my enjoyment of the show, but I do wish I had been patient and tried to guess the killer. Oh well. :) Before trying the 2017...

Did you guess right away who the killer was? And another question: did you recognize who played Denise? ;) From what I recall, the shift in writing came about because David Lynch (the series co-creator) had left midway through Season 2. Sometimes it felt like the writers/directors were trying...

So basically, you can't back up your claims. Noted.

I used to enjoy my current job, to the point where I looked forward to going to work. That's not the case anymore. Partly it's due to stagnation and partly it's due to newer management being too stubborn and by-the-book. Hopefully this year I'll muster up the gumption to pursue a new line of work.

What are some of the problems that have occurred in the past?
