That clip is indeed awesome! It's taken from a BBC documentary called James May at the Edge of Space, which was broadcast in the UK last year. More info here. I actually saw this programme when it was broadcast. Oh I wish I could do that one day! :)

According to Urban Dictionary, "un" means: nasty, or unpleasant in the extreme not cool. lame. stupid. un-anything. unnecessary, unattractive, undesireable, etc. What you would say after hearing or seeing something that is offensive or disgusting. Should be said in a higher octave than your...

I know exactly what you mean. Entertainment can seem very shallow and unsatisfying at times. Watching a 30-minute episode of something on TV provides temporary distraction and escape, but it doesn't necessarily leave you with any deep feelings afterwards. It doesn't help solve the underlying...

I've felt exactly like that in the past. Video games are very soulless things anyway. The only thing that helps me at times like this is to get out of the house, just go for a good long walk, get your body moving, get some fresh air in your lungs. Do you have any green spaces you can walk...

Yes, I know, you told us about that in your first post: I used to be a heavy gamer myself. For example, I used to spend hours and hours playing multiplayer Halo online. I was really addicted to it. It started to invade the rest of my life, blurring the boundary between reality and fantasy...

Carlito - You're dangerously near the black hole of despair and hopelessness. I'm reaching out my hand to you, to save you. Grab hold of my hand. I want to stop you falling any further than you already have, and I want to help you to climb out again. Can you see the vicious cycle here? If...

I hate the way that society enforces its definitions of "worth" on people: * A so-called attractive person is apparently "worth" more than a so-called ugly person. * A socially confident extroverted person is apparently "worth" more than a quiet shy introverted person. * A billionaire is...

It's such a shame that society says this about guys. Girls are allowed to get all emotional with their female friends, but guys must always be tough, macho, stiff upper lip, otherwise they're labelled as a wimp, wuss, loser, etc. Not sad at all. It's so much easier this way, especially on a...

Yesterday, something quite extraordinary happened. I was thinking deeply about what I wrote above ^^^. I was thinking about this: "I cannot let them see my pain". Well, no, I can't let everyone see my pain, but is there literally no-one I can share my pain with, apart from my one "deep"...

I remember when "Children" by Robert Miles was released. I was 13 years old. We used to play it on endless loop at school. Literally, we would listen to it non-stop for hours. And we never got tired of it. Now I'm 27, and I still consider this to be the greatest club song ever created...

Well I suppose it's reassuring for us to know that we're all crying together, but I wish we all weren't so sad :( What a lovely British comment Being a Brit myself, I love all those old-fashioned words that few people use any more: splendid, marvellous, jolly spiffing, blimey, crikey, good...

Yes, exactly. This is so important. Thank you WerewolfChemist for putting it so eloquently. I'll try to put it in my own words, but I still think you've described it better. Life says to me: "You're never going to succeed. You will always fail. There's no point in even trying. Why bother...

A very warm welcome to ALL, njlonelydude :) You've done absolutely the right thing. At the very least, you're talking about your problem, which is a great thing in itself. As you said, "Nobody in my life knows that I feel this way". It's a terrible thing to have no-one to talk to about your...

I'm very grateful for days like today, when my heartache/loneliness is not as intense as it normally is. I would go as far as saying I'm actually happy today - extraordinary!

Great question Andre! I love the darkness (and no, I'm not talking about the rock band :P) I quite like the daylight, but darkness is so much more interesting. 1. In the daylight, everything is revealed, and nothing is hidden. I find that rather boring. Imagine a murder mystery whodunnit...

^^^ THIS!! :D I'm seriously happy for you! Congrats! Guys, it's worth checking out SullenGirl's earlier posts, here and here, and then reading this thread again. What an awesome result! :D

I have no experience of such things, but I know that, for people who are into the dom/sub thing, it should always be enjoyable, for both the dom and the sub. The person who's playing the sub should want to be submissive, and enjoy it. That's not the kind of "role" you're looking for in a...

As BJD says, love is not like a Rubik's Cube, because that can always be solved. No, love is more like the card game, Solitaire. I know there are different variations of Solitaire, and love is like the most difficult variation, with an extremely low average success rate. Every time you meet a...

Crying again tonight Sad music: yes. Lights turned off: yes. Door locked: most definitely yes. Crying: most definitely yes. Painfully digging my fingernails into my arms to help release the emotional pain: unfortunately yes (don't worry, no scarring or anything permanent). I'm sorry you...

^^^ It's so nice when you're trying to put something into words, and then you find that someone else has done it for you, and better than you could have done! I have quite a few friends, but almost none of my friendships are deep. I often feel like I'm just paddling in the shallow waves at the...
