I'm reading through the CWCki some more, and I think I figured out an X Meets Y equation for CWC: Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy meets Superbitch Prime from Countdown to Final Crisis. He's a pervert like Herbert, but he's also a whiny, violent manchild like Prime.
Also, I feel like gushing non-specifically but I'll refrain for now. XD
I'm not that big into comic books myself (beyond what Linkara mentions, anyway), but Countdown was, from what I can tell, just a huge mess of a comic. Then again, I also understand that the DCU's continuity is so screwed up at this point that it makes Homestuck look like My First Book of Things.
Hell, there's really not much wrong with being a manchild, really, in the sense of liking childish things (like C.S. Lewis mentioned once); in CWC's case, it's the unwarranted self-importance, his huge sense of entitlement and a nasty, nasty mean streak that make him so unpleasant to be around.
People do get angry sometimes, and people learn to deal with their anger in creative, positive ways. CWC gets on the Internet and yells about his detractors and shifts blame because he's apparently perfect. Of course, if recent events are any indicator, I'm sure whatever psychiatrists the Albemarle County General District Court brings in will be quite pleased to hear him rant about conspiracies and trolls and homos and such. If nothing else, throwing him in the psych ward until the Seroquel kicks in may well do him some good. :P
Haven: YES. YES HE WOULD. -falls over laughing- Also, I'm watching "THAT IS MY HOUSE" and thinking "Man, I have a niece in 1st grade who has a better temper than he does." It's like watching a cartoon character, almost.
AU: As long as you don't withdraw completely, I suppose it's all right, but it's always helped me to talk about it with someone, since holding it in always seems to make it worse for me. And while people do shift blame sometimes when they're upset, it certainly doesn't help and I try my best not to do it anymore...especially now that I know most of the terrors I've been through have largely been self-inflicted due to anxiety.
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
I withdraw temporarily, long enough to cool down.
It occurs to me that most of my anger problems c. 2009 were of my own making, brought on by my mindset that anger felt good and it was to be embraced. Fortunately, it went away.
I deal with my anger by trying to withdraw. Is that wrong?
It depends on how you do it. I think usually it's a good idea to back off a little when angry, but if you don't eventually talk about what made you angry then you won't be able to figure out how to stop it from happening again, or clear the air with whoever caused it if it was a person instead of an event.
Of course, I really am in no position to talk to people about anger, since I can barely even acknowledge my own.

...I feel weird right now. I'm not really interested in anything, aside from thinking about my imaginary grocery store.
I need to stop dicking around, myself, and finish putting my bed back together so I can sleep. The ticking comes off of this mattress so you can wash it, which is nice, but it means I have to reassemble the damn thing now. Then I can do the usual sheets and such.

...I want to look at houses.
When I was like 7 or 8, my parents decided they wanted to move and so every weekend we would go and check out houses for rent. I remember some of them more clearly than others, but I always loved imagining myself living there.

Not usually, no.
Also, that Kroger is (as far as I know) the only major supermarket in Nelsonville, and it's not even open 24 hours.

I don't know.
It seems a surprising number of Kroger stores are not open 24 hours, such as the remodeled Superstore in Reynoldsburg or the relatively-new Marketplace in Gahanna.

...If they don't have doors, what do they do when the store is closed? Like for Christmas day or something?
I'm up, at work, and taking a short break because my brain is overheated. Also, I had Tik Tok stuck in my head again this morning. ARGH GET IT OUT GET IT OUT
Also also, regarding how much me and Ally talk on DA: I just realized, we've had a thread going since mid-September. And I didn't even notice until now. WOW.

Yeah. I didn't get a lot of sleep this morning, so my body is trying to make me compensate for it.

In 2017, ABC Inc owner Anonus got married and put his wife, Central Avenue, in charge of ABC Family programming. His other employees were outraged at this blatant display of cronyism, but relented after Avenue introduced ABC Family Child Pornography Weekends, bringing the network its best ratings in decades

I wanna buy Hallmark Channel and Carsey-Werner. Maybe AMC or Discovery, too.
This was in 2008; the interior still had the "Millennium" decor package.
(Small Kroger stores aren't uncommon in small towns like that, but this one is unusual in that it was apparently built in the early '90s)

I'm not sure I even qualify as vanilla...
Anyway, five-star rating systems just bug me. Four is all you need, really.
