I moved here for a job. There wasn't anything available in NC for my field a year ago. Not much right now, either.

You're not asking very good questions.

I am not obligated to answer questions with answers that you like, sorry. Or at all. My lack of a response should have given you a hint.

how come your thread is getting more play than mine ever did

is it because you're gay, and gay people are a novelty?

^^ Eh.

^ I don't think it's a novelty thing. Supplanter has or had a questions thread at some point (I think). Being gay isn't the most important thing about me, contrary to popular belief.


Okay, moar.

I have a tell Supplanter anything thread, so that I don't have to answer anything & can ignore it, without feeling left out on the something user anything threads.

If anyone has something they want to share, you do so here:

Did you know a slice of red velvet cheesecake from the cheesecake factory is 1250 calories?!?

One single little slice! For someone who doesn't go over 2k calories most days, that's like 2 meals in single piece of food. Had not planned for that. Don't have a lot of options that fit in with my remaining calories.

Should I have a few peanut butter crackers, 10 pepper jack cheez-its, or half a granola bar?

Actually, I'd rather think that 1250 calories is on the low end for most items from Cheesecake Factory. Also, if you stick below 2k per day, that would explain why you're so damn thin!

Personally, I'd go with the peanut butter crackers. Gotta love the PB.

http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/calories-burned.php

To be more specific I usually aim for between 2k & 2.1k. This site says I burn about 2070 calories a day, so that's a weight maintenance intake. Although I usually end up skipping once a week. And if I manage to exercise then I'm open to upping the limit for that day. A lot of it is guess work. I used to follow calories closely. These days I have a good general sense of most foods (other than random cheesecake slices which I looked up) so I just eye ball it.

You didn't answer their question about why/how you selected your username. I'd like to know.

OK, so, here's one: Describe one time when you felt very out of the ordinary after someone looked at you. Describe the context, what you felt their glance/look implied, and what you did as a result.

Mmmmmmmaaaaybe. My interest in doing so is waning.

Mostly I just wanted to reflect my perfection.

Probably while I was on the train ride cross-country earlier this month. Some older woman kept staring at me while I was relaxing in the observation/lounge car, and I could never figure out why. My guess was that she was curious about my DSLR camera, since I was using it to take pictures of the scenery, but I didn't want to go ask her. After a while, I just decided to leave, because I was bored.

I have yet to start giving a fuck about him, either way.

sooo, new question:

what kind of DSLR do you have, and what lens(es) were you using at the time you were being observed?

(While we're on the subject, do you have recommendations for a good macro lens? I have a Nikon D90)

^ I have a Nikon D3000... decent way to start out, IMHO. I think I had the usual 55mm lens on it at the time, since i was taking landscape shots. I'd have to defer to the smart people in the DSLR thread for advice on lenses, as I'm nothing close to an expert.

^^ had to ask. I'm not real serious on getting a macro, unless I decide to get more serious with my Etsy shop.

here's another random one: what's one item you always want to have with you? (perhaps think of something beyond, say, a wallet, which might be more of a standard necessity)
