To the best of my knowledge/memory nothing/no one has ever died in any of my dreams.
One time I had this dream where I was locked in a van while my family was having a picnic in the park and then the van started to roll downhill towards a boating ramp... I blame my dad. He let us watch 'Puppet Master' and all sorts of B-movies while my mom thought the 'Wizard of Oz' was too scary for us.
As far as girls go I always made jokes about being gay in high school, guess what makes most girls not want to date you?

Where I live, being a man who can bake, play the guitar, listens to real music, pulls out chairs and holds doors open for the ladies, is all canceled out by playing with total soldiers.

No man, it's all of them. I am like the perfect ladies man, and still can't get a date. One gal had a genuine excuse, the rest have been like "He's so creepy!"
I don't know what's making me so god "Creepy", either, and so I can't correct it

At the clubs, however... It's a slippery slope, but sometimes dancing with a dude is all a girl needs to feel safe, with the minor side effect of turning them on from the start.

You have no idea how much this just made me laugh. You don't know me, because if you did, you would realize that no, no I don't think I'm perfect, I'm far from it.

Again,there is no simple "template" that encompeses "all" women,some women like certain things that others don't...just like some men like things that other men don't...there are no "set" rules.
Now,to answer your question,traditionally in my family the men are the better cooks,I learned how to cook at a very young age and it has been my own personal experience that most of the women I've dated enjoyed the fact that I was talented in the kitchen.

Nah a soup. It is rice soup an old family recipe. And I am the one of my family that is talented when it comes to picking up new skills. (Not to brag, but i learn stuff faster if I actually do it everyday.)

Agreed,the thing is to avoid the " I think my cat is almost human" crazy and find the " I really like leather thongs &boots" crazy.
Conversely,It's my opinion that everyone,be the male or female is crazy,some of us just hide it better.

Sorry to say this but DND No offense has to be one of the nerdest games ever of all time. And it has a stereotype of having dark serial killers lurk within those groups.
Then for warhammer its a guy picking his nose and having a beer belly and such and having glasses the size of 2 fists of a wrestler put together.
And girls don't really have any likes they are as diverse as guys. And their are some, girls that are girl gamers, dnd players, warhammer players and such its just rare because girls don't want to feel like social outcasts.

I personally don't find it too difficult just be friendly, easy-going, polite and good-conversationalist, and you're off to a good start.

But weemen don't get why men love role-playing. I don't know why, but perhaps some women do.
Actually I'd say women are quite into roleplaying... perhaps not your DnD games because you play with a bunch of pimple-faced powergamers, but certainly that's not the only roleplaying system out there. It's wargaming that has typically been a sausage fest with very few women, as roleplaying has had a marked increase in female participants.

For me, the problem has been two fold:
1) I was an idiot back in elementry school, no chicks because of it.
2) "I'm not from around here" in high school, because that makes you less of a person in a small town.

Suprisingly enough we did,though there was a bit more emphasis placed on the "Social interaction/Romantic/political" aspects of the game.

Also do Lucha Libre wrestlers actually wear their masks in public as well?
Back on the topic of wierd dreams, I had a doozy last night (haven't posted until now due to people who might read it on my end).
This lady I work with had these needles, and she kept trying to inject me with them. Only thing is, is everytime she actually got one into me, a part of me changed. I had dumbo ears for a bit, and every time she did it, she was saying "oh, just one more adn that should go away!" After she got rid of the Dumbo Ears, I got scaly skin (No armour save, unfortunatley), then red eyes, so on, so forth. As I was running from what she was doing to me my shoulders kept getting bloodier and bloodier, and as I was running, I tripped, turned around to her being right on top of me holding another needle, and then I woke up

Hate weird dreams.
Had a cool one once the were my school turned into a guard recruiting station and we fought off some tyrinids. Was cool, Then the emperor showed up...
I had one of those... I was with a bunch of valhallans trying to re-take some city for the emprah er whatever...
the thing was... All the commissars were drunk... Like... The kind of drunk where you not only don't remember what you were doing while intoxicated, your brain goes ahead and wipes the whole day from your memory, just to be sure that you have no way of learning what heinous things you did under the influence (kind of like an exterminatus enacted on your brain, by your brain).
Anyway.. The commissarat were busy hurtling around the battlefield in chimeras they had stolen, leaning out of the pintle turrets and holding onto the equipment webbing, singing bawdy songs at the top of their lungs and firing their bolt pistols at random.
Every once and a while one of them (or all of them, as was the case once) would have to stop and hurl on the side of the road. As their compatriot was animatedly conversating with the gutter, the remaining commissars would order anyone in the immediate vicinity to sing along with them, friend or foe, and would shoot everyone who resisted.

Ah come on, you can't tell me you've never Facebook Searched someone you grew up with, just out of curiousity. Besides, what the hell is the point of Facebook if other people don't browse your page?

Ah come on, you can't tell me you've never Facebook Searched someone you grew up with, just out of curiousity. Besides, what the hell is the point of Facebook if other people don't browse your page?
I've been known to do it. I think we all have.
I usually do it to find blackmail on a person, and place it in a folder labeled "Blackmail!".
It's not the doing it. You misunderstand No, you're never supposed to admit to any sort of "obsessive" behavior, especially when it only relates to vaguely knowing someone who looks attractive and makes you extremely excited. Simply said, knowing someone who is attractive shouldn't make you that happy, as it shows that you either never talk to girls or purposely talk to ugly ones.

Well, she was ugly last time I talked to her..... I'm honestly just surprised she turned out looking... like that. Also, jotted down in my mental "Notebook", thanks Cannerus

Yeah has happened to some of my good friends like i didn't see a girl in like 5 years. its been 5 years and I saw here and my jaw dropped. I asked "God damn i thought puberty would suck for everyone, apparently you proved me wrong." I love being proved wrong by a girl, in a nonstupid way.
Lets see weirdest dream i have ever had. Oh yes it went like this. I was walking down this alley way and then came out of nowhere came the people from inception and then they told me I was stuck in a dream, I basically said back. "Yes I know i am in a dream because i was in a dream that i was dreaming about a dream. But how stupid do you think i am?"
The incepetion people then got into a gun fight and such which was fun because the chinese dude got shot and then this weird freight train came out of nowhere. Then my best friend came out of nowhere with a RPG and killed Chuck Norris. Then out of nowhere came the Cat emperor of Cat kind and he killed the Troll Queen. Then out of nowhere came the Battle Suit that had the emperor and all his primarchs using as a giant robot and beat the living snot out of the incepetion people then came optimius prime who then exploded randomly. Then a helicopter flew over and crashed into the freight train. Then my best friend starts laughing at the incepetion people then my friend Gabs came out of nowhere with two dual magnums and unloaded them into justin bieber and Batman. Then Creed came in with a titan legion and outflanked abbaddons forces. Then the prime minister of Great Britian announced He lost the game. Then he took a gun out and started drinking vodka. Then came this really cool ship that looked kinda like the hyperion from starcraft then came the storm raven and painted all over it were hot flames and the word awesome written all over it and a giant minigun that had 20 melta guns tied to it and it fire destroying the hyperion in one shot. Then next second I noticed i was a space marine with a light saber and I thought to myself. "Holy gaking mother of gak this has to be the coolest dream ever." Then michael j. caboose came out of nowhere with shelia the tank and blew me up. And i hear "YOU GAKING TEAM KILLER!" Then I woke up.
Yep that was my dream true story. I wrote it down i thought it was the most badass dream ever. but apparently its just one gaked up piece of work.

Np In many cases, especially relating to women, the less you say, the better off you are. Let her talk, learn tons about her but make sure she doesn't know everything about you. You want that little element of mystery while remaining trustworthy.
Is probably the worst place you can possibly be when your interested in a girl. Your best course of action is to abort mission and find another quarry.
The "friend zone" isn't always a bad place to be,from there you can meet lots of "her" friends opening up all sorts of opportunities.
Plus there is always the chance of the friendship moving into the "friends with benefits" zone.

Not in my experience. "Friends with benefits" is actually not a "friend" area at all, but one where she is interested on a lesser scale. The sex side and the friendship side of that kind of relationship are two completely different things. For example, when I broke up with one ex we continued to hook up. She didn't want me as a friend at that point, but wanted me physically. Given time it's shifted focus to being on the friend side and the thought of physicality would be a very touchy issue indeed.

I don't know Cannerus,I've had a few female friends with whom I've been "intimate" with,but was not dating and freely saw other people on both sides,we were in all cases "friends" in that we hung out from time to time,went to movies,concerts,clubs and such together...but in no case with any were we ever "dating" or a "couple"....so..."Friends with benefits" is about the only descriptive term I can think of.

This intrigues me. Did you come on to them or the other way around? What prompted the arrangements or when did it become clear exactly what was going on? There had to have been at least a little gray area in there.

In most cases it was sort of a mutual " I don't want to be in a relationship or tied down" sort of thing,I did what I wanted,they did what they wanted ,but there was always in all cases a friendship there,if I got a call asking if I was busy and if not did I want to go to a club or something,I'd often accept the invite...but never expect anything one way or another,sometimes we'd hook up...sometimes I would leave with someone else/or they would...no big deal.
I believe that the common thread was a general desire to avoid "commitment" but to still have the opportunity to "hang out" when it suited them/me.
It will probably come off as semantics, but I've found that what is called friends with benefits is often really just a very non-committal open relationship. I tend to view fwb in a very singular fashion, as someone to call when I want favors, though we may hang out sometime or have some activity in common. It gets sticky, especially if uncontrolled, but what doesn't?
Cannerus_The_Unbearable wrote:Yup. "Next"ing is usually the best option.
And to add to that, make sure you avoid paying any direct attention to her.
I can fully concur to this one! One-sided affection is never a pleasant thing, and one is more likely to resort to feelings of hatred, due to being unable to live out ones affection.
- i personally believe, that a person uncapable of loving is also uncapable of hating. On the contrary, one able to feel love is also able to hate. It's all a matter of whether or not life presents room to show it. Live it out. Alternatively, i believe that those feelings may turn and provide the breeding ground for hatred.
An old saying goes: "The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.". I think that anyone, that's ever found them in a one-sided love affair can relate.

In danish, we've got a saying. It's hard to translate directly though.
But it goes something like this: "An experience can be either good or bad. But the knowledge (expereince) gained can always be turned into good."
- The best way to look at it, is by knowing, that every agonizing experience we live through makes us - not just stronger - but also able to better understand other people. It is basically the difference between empathy and sympathy.
- Empathy is the ability to recognize other peoples emotions.
- Sympathy is the ability to SHARE those emotions.
By experiencing, we gain knowledge. And by that knowledge, we can fully learn to - not just empathize - but to sympathise with other people.
Also, by thinking of what we've experienced, we learn to recognize patterns, and by that prevent the same mistakes from happening over again.
To find a healthy balance, however, is the tricky part. Feeling are hardly ever logical. But they tend to carry a heavy influence.
@Slarg
The actual direct translation is actually "An experience can be either good or bad. But an experience can always be turned into something good.". It doesn't really translate that well, as the danish language got different wordings from "experience-that-happens" (active) and "experience-in-the-memory-banks" (passive)
I'm not sure i totally agree with the French saying. I find it a little male chauvinistic to just blame it all on women. It DOES hold true to some extend. But a man or woman is always able to choose for themselves.
- But OTOH, ones present, logical, experiences is often in conflict with one's emotions, and hence makes it tough to "keep ones cool".

It all depends on how you mean it. When I go the Chauvinistic route, it's usually just to pull some girls pigtails. And I do it in a voice that they realize I am joking.
Well, yes of course. And i was being too literal, as you can see - Jokes aside, yeah, i tend to take the provokative approach myself... I seems much more alluring for both parts.

I'm not whining. I figure it's better to be in the FZ so that you have more experience with the opposite gender before you go off into the world and bag a nice one.
If only to allow you to recognize the signs of heading toward the FZ and avoid it.
Being direct tends to be the best course of action in all aspects of life, not just in matters involving the opposite gender. You might not always get the answer you want but at least you won't end up wasting time.
Oh, and Billinator has been dropping genius on this thread.

I find that behaviour quite unusual. Mine's pretty simple. She either wants food or wants out. Sometimes a little caress. But usually it comes down to one of the two things.

Simple, use psychological conditioning. All you need to do is put chili on your knuckles when you play games, soon enough your kitty will learn that biting knuckles=diarrhea.
Besides, he's just asking me to play with him. He has this little cloth mouse on the end of an elastic string he loves to play with, he wants me to move it around so he can pretend he's hunting.

I don't get how you learn how to consume anything of the sort... If i even sniff anything particually hot, my taste bud breaks down, and my throat feels like i've swallowed lava

Hmmm,Matter of taste I suppose...for the most part I use it on Red beans and rice,IMO it gives it a bit of a kick without covering up the flavors of the pork.
I prefer Louisiana The Perfect Hot Sauce for my default stuff, to put over or in meals after they're done cooking.
Chalula is good for actually using in cooking, has a distinct, sweeter taste rather than a salty one like most hot sauces that cooks blends well with many kinds of meals, especially the pastas that I tend to make.

Since I work on cars for a living my hands are usually covered in grease,oil or some other sludge,but yes...the world is a very filth place,but it's home.
Me and spicy get alone tentatively. I've never cried but I've put down a half gallon of milk off one wing. Don't remember where it was from but it was the hottest they had. Generally I don't do spicy, though some is always welcome.

Oh yeah! The more meat, the better... I do, however, like to phrase it otherwise. But thats just me!
I prefer a good balance between the two myself. Meat needs time to cook for the flavoring to properly develop, especially if you use a spice rub like I prefer to.

Speaking of animal muscle fibres, did you know that human muscle fibres look kind of like the bits of cooked meat in fried rice?
You see the little bits of red meat? That's what most of look like on the inside, if we have oxygen left in us that is.
The spinal sac is also really, really cool. You can poke it without damaging the spinal cord! Boy howdy I loved shadowing that doctor for the day. Speaking of surgeries there's a website I heard about when I was shadowing a librarian at EVMS that had videos of live surgeries. Heart replacement surgery is weird, they take out one heart and there's a huge dark, red empty space just sitting there. Then they put the new heart in and as soon as they finish reattaching the first arteries it begins to pump again. The surgery still isn't done and I think it would be annoying to try to stitch up a beating heart.

Part of my upbringing man,where I was raised food and the art of cooking is damn near a religion.
...And now that Nachos posted that picture I want some Chinese.
Where I was raised we had peirogies and kielbasa one night and then enchiladas the next. You can't imagine what its like having a mom who had a german/norweigian father, a mexican stepfather, and an irish stepmother. My dad's a new englander and he can make some pretty good lobster, but I prefer my own cooking.
Truth is though, I mainly bake the best fethin desserts around.
I don't care too much about making sauces, I can make a chocolate cake that's so chocolatey it tastes like coffee. I call it the 'PMS' cake, I also fething love making marshmallow fondant. Its easy as hell to start making, the entire process is time consuming but its like making sweet bread that's made out of the Stay-Puft's man flesh.

I agree. A good sauce is a dimension of it's own. There's always adding the tasty leftover fluids from the meat (of which i don't know your word for ). I'm much hesitant on the artificial flavour-mediums (if you can call it that.), as many of them tends to carry a vulgar after-taste from being artificial.

In all seriousness when my Mom's family came to America from Germany their last name was Nusberger which I think translates into "Nut Salvager" which I hope means something besides the literal meaning because of the ways Germans combine words, for example the German word for 'lighter' is made up of the words for 'fire' and 'thing'.

Truth is though, I mainly bake the best fethin desserts around.
When my Mothers side of the Family first came to America from Germany they were bakers,even owned a small bakery in New Orleans...it's been passed down through the family.
Oh yeah? When my Dad's side and my Mom's side came to America from their respective heritages they were poor they were even poor in Wisconsin and Rhode Island...it's been passed down trhough the family.
In all seriousness when my Mom's family came to America from Germany their last name was Nusberger which I think translates into "Nut Salvager" which I hope means something besides the literal meaning because of the ways Germans combine words, for example the German word for 'lighter' is made up of the words for 'fire' and 'thing'.
Yeah poverty does have a way of becoming a family tradition doesn't it.
My Moms Family name was Kachler...I don't have the first clue what it means.
Edit:...Aparently it has somethine to do with "Tile".
It's not heat that I want out of a hot sauce, though, it's flavor and taste. Most really hot hot sauces don't have much flavor, or the heat overwhelms the flavor even for my palette which is used to heat.

I know, I hate that. When I eat something, I want to taste it.
Speaking of burn that tastes, anyone of you had Doritoes Burn Flavor Chips?

That's why I only use the first one from my post as part of the cooking process typically, and only a few drops. Adds some heat and a very present pepper flavor. FWIW, the Chipotle Tabasco is bounds more flavorful, though still a little vinegary.
It may sound a bit odd,but I've found that a pizza with Jalapeno,pineapple and BBQ chicken is a great combination of both heat and flavor...best pizza ever.
I LOVE Jalapeno + sweet. Try taking a bite of something with strong jalapeno flavor then following it up with a bite of something strawberry and see what I mean That pizza sounds really, really good.

Wisconsin six cheese pizza, got to support my team you know. Normally I get pepperoni and ham on my pizzas with some ranch to dip it in and butter garlic for the crust. I do enjoy Arby's Jalapeno poppers, they give you a sweet sauce for dipping and the combination of the breading, cream cheese, jalapeno, and sauce makes it the best around for fast food.

I've seen Jalapeno incorporated into various deserts on several cooking shows and really want to try them out,the combinations seemed like they would be delicious.
And yes....try that pizza combination...you won't be sorry.

The pizza topping combo I described is basically all I get when I get pizza,maybe drizzle a bit of catalina dressing over it...but that's about all.
The Arby's Jalapeno poppers are pretty good though. :thumbs up:

Bad thing is,the Jalapeno poppers are one of the few good things on Arby's menu,you have to practically drown their roast beef in sauce to make it edible.
You speak crazy talk, sir. You don't compare the taquitos at the gas station to a home-cooked mexican meal, nor should arby's roast beef ever be compared to high quality roast beef. Both have their place in the spectrum of deliciousness

Of course I get the difference between "real" food and "quick" food,but I must respectfully disagree that an Arby's roast beef can be found anywhere on the spectrum of deliciousness....the spectrum of "I'm starving and this will have to do" perhaps...but never the spectrum of deliciousness.

Have you tried chicago pizza?
When I was in Chicago I did,and I quite enjoyed it as well,however...the flavor of the combination of the above toppings is amazingly good,regardless of the style of pizza you put them on.

I'm not usually a big fan of chicken (preferring Italian meats such as pepperoni, salami and baloney, at least when it comes to pizza) on pizza, but that sounds delicious do you make it yourself or buy it?

Gonna have to go with Peanut Sauce. Goes great with all my chicken dishes.
Sesame Oil is the best thing to use when frying chicken, I make a bangin' General Tso chicken. Its a lot healthier than the chinese take out stuff as well because I don't deep fry it and there's no breading. I can make it spicy and mild but to tell the truth the stuff's usually loaded with crushed red peppers.

This. Anything stir fried is amazing.
I think I might take Fitzz's recipe and make a stir fried version of it. . . . the more I think about it the more it seems like it would actually be really good.

Both actually...whenever the Family orders pizza those are the toppings I get (most pizza chains offer some variety of BBQ chicken pizza,just have them add Jalapenos and pineapple ).
Also,at least once a month the Missus and I make pizza from scratch,this always follows a night when we've BBQ'D chicken,so I just shred the chicken,cut up some pineapple and some Jalapenos and Ta-Da.
The mixture is also quite nice in Patillos,witch is similar to an Empanada.
I think everyone needs to see their doctors after reading this part of the thread, not only for a quick cholesterol check but to see if the idea of stir frying Fitzz's recipe is safe for human consumption.
"Creepy", either, and so I can't correct it
