Cool story bro.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

I like how someone using "gay" as a pejorative is calling other people "kid".

I mean, I call people son all the time, but I do it because I want to annoy them.

I already quoted/referenced all the posts that say that; I apologize about the gay comment. I swore you said that in another thread when you ranted about "Gender studies" - My roommate is gay, I do not mind people who are into that whatsoever! I've actually been to a "Gay Parade" before, enjoyed the experience and met a few cool people!

No one is forcing me to read this, that is correct. Hopefully we meet one day. I would enjoy the conversation immensely.

I meant no offense by saying "Gay". I called Stelek a kid, because when I met him - he basically was

Come to think of it, Hotsauceman has been posting threads like this for a while now, and I haven't been on in like four or five months. I've probably missed a lot of them. Damn.

I don't see why you're so upset about him making threads like this. It's the OT for a reason, hehe. It's probably more interesting than half of the "thought this was edgy and notable enough to share" news threads.

Well, there was a bit of a crackdown on emo blog threads. This was a bit of a stealth-meta emo blog thread, but while I'm not sure I'd go quite as far as Auxellion has, I don't think he's completely off base either.

One of those "I don't disagree, but you could have been a bit less aggressive about it" sort of deals.

Props because you reminded me that Stelek existed and prompted me to search that name, which lead to IRL videos of Stelek and Dash of Pepper.

Quite.

It tends to make more interesting stories than when someone rationalizes their lack of a social life.


DING DING DING! Winner winner chicken dinner!

I guess someone could be in a low population area with literally no dateable females. But in my experience, claims like that are often excuses for a lack of a social life.

As I said before, if you *think* this is your situation, maybe you should lower your apparently lofty standards and give some of those girls a chance. You don't have to marry them. You don't have to sleep with them. You don't even have to go on a second date with them. Just date a little. Go get some dinner and a movie with a girl or two. Because making up excuses for why you're alone every Saturday night can't be fun after a while.

The more you date, the better you'll get at dating. The better you get at dating, the more confident you'll be around girls. And the more confident you are, the more girls you'll get.

I agree with this post completely. Take steps to accentuate your plumage to be more visually pleasing and noticeable. Bright colors, more defined musculature and regular grooming are all pleasing to the eye of the female. Other males acquire devices known as "sports cars" or "motorcycles" to help attract a suitable partner. Other lesser males acquire what's known as a "steady paycheck" ,which has similar affects, large wads of their currency apparently able to make up for a lack of plumage for many males. These were some of my final notes before I had to end my expedition and leave this curious tribe behind. I shall miss them those... humans in the mist.

Being cold is always cool. Be that kid who walks around and blankly stares at everything with a pensive, slightly annoyed gaze and gives short, terse answers to all questions. Only laugh after long,expected pauses. Be unexpectantly romantic when the occasion arises. Be respectful to everyone, especially adults. Most importantly, have a really cute, genuine smile to give when it's appropriate.

You are now me. Ha, only kidding. I just described a generic archtype of anime characters

Bottom line - if you don't want to have kids, you really shouldn't.

It doesn't make you a bad person.

It all seems kind of... obvious?

Thats a good chuckle. Come to me Hotsauce. Come over here and tell your Uncle Sargie Wilkie your bad bad issues. I have your welfare in my heart. Tell me young one so I can be of use and for I shall set you on the correct course. First off though...you are not a Dark Eldar so go and dress normaly.

What does gay have to do with anything in the first place. Gay people can want kids too.

1. Never have kids because you are pressured to. That means, by nature, you are unready.

2. See Rule #1

And remember, gay, straight, angle challenged, whatever, the grandparents are going to want kids. Its the law.

exactly. The wife wants the retirement home to be a mini playground replete with riding trails, pool, etc.

I don't want kids because I would not be a good parent. It is too hard to parent these days, kids learn to be very selfish at an early age, you can not spank them for doing something wrong.

I would only spank my child hypothetically if I decide to have one if they done something so bad they deserve it. Otherwise, I will take things off them for a set time period.

I would promote intellectual activities over other activites though. Still, I would be a bad parent.

Also, Arthritis, Bowel Cancer, Heart Disease, Asthma, Aspergers' Syndrome, Borderline Personality Disorder and Schizophrenia is genetic. Most of my dad's side of my family has Arthritis and my 2nd cousin died of Bowel Cancer. My Mum's side has Shizophrenia running down it also. It would be quite foolish for me to reproduce. I don't want to pass on these dangerous genes.
