Microsoft didn't document something ...and you're surprised at this?
|

Yes and no. They've generally done a fair to good job of specing out .NET and C#. Enough that this really frustrated me.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

So a friend asked me out to watch some local bands last night.
Sure, I'll go.
Didn't feel like going because it required me to leave the house, but I already said yes so let's get it over with.
When we're there, this girl walks up to my friend and apparently they knew each other.
So my friend asks her "how did it go?" (apparently, she just played on stage).
"I was so nervous. I like a bit of attention, but not like this. I'm never doing this again."
So I thought I'd try to be social and chime in, "try a beta blocker next time, it's a small pill and all your nerves will be gone."
I know because I use them when I have to do presentations.
Apparently, they're popular among students taking exams as well.
She looks me dead in the eye and says "I'd rather sniff something, but I've been clean for one and a half month now so I'm not taking anything."
Not the answer I was expecting.
Next time I'll just stand there and say nothing like I usually do

You need a reason not to talk to people? I don't.

Usually, no

In the music scene, you didn't expect singers to be snorting?
Such a sheltered life you have led!

I never said she was a singer
I live on an island with the nickname "the white island" (and not because its inhabitants are mainly white), but I've never known anyone who was on (hard) drugs. I think...
We have a lot of farmers who have sheds in the middle of nowhere, great for drug labs.
The musicians are all hobbyists, so they can't live the drugs, sex and rock n roll lifestyle in weekends and be at work/in school on Monday

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah, but as you get older the possibilities become limited
|
|

I wouldn't say that... possibilities don't get limited.
But getting up on the next day gets worst, that's for sure...

If I had a party now as the ones I had 15 years ago... I would not jump out of the bed, I would be more than happy if I could crawl or roll out of it

In the Netherlands?
Didn't know you had such a thing.
Well, I suppose it's relative.
|

Well, "middle of nowhere" here means a five minute drive in each direction before you reach the next settlement...
But yeah, we must built more houses and move designated nature areas.
Because god forbid we have a square meter that's not house or asphalt.
I don't like vacations in the Netherlands, because no matter where you go you're never far from a busy road.

I would recommend a week of "The middle of nowhere".
Everyone should experience the sky without light pollution at least once in their lives.

But I would not stay longer than 10 days

I tried that (a safari in South Africa). The sky was cloudy.

I've been in a (luxury) tent camp on a big rock in Kenya once.
Even though we were on top of this huge rock and we could see the horizon on all sides, we did not see a single house, car, human or even artificial light.
At night you could see ALL the stars.
I live in a rural village and I can see some stars, but that there was magical.
We've only been there two nights, which was enough as the nights got cold without heating
Of course the other lodges we've been to we're pretty out in the nowhere as well, but none had such a stunning view.
It makes me a little sad to know that's not possible in the Netherlands.

I was out camping once lying in my sleeping bag and looking up at the amazing show of thousands of stars I could clearly see with the naked eye. I pondered this wonderful view for a while and then thought to myself, "Who the heck has stolen my tent!"
