I Must Go, My People Need Me Edition

I've always wanted to claim a SYM thread, and now that I've decided to fuck right off from this board for good I might as well take it while I can.
Later, dweebs. You were all pretty terrible and circlejerky, but I liked most of you. Some of you. Like 10 of you.

I wandering why do I hang on imageboards.
I'm schizophrenic and the general mood of anger of image boards is alien to me since I don't have strong emotions.

Nobody talks about things I like or helps me with my querys but I do like to help others.
people worries about board decaying and being taken over by newfags but its all the same and they never want to move over to new image boards.
People always complain that shows aren't good but they never make a comic to compensate.

they never help themselves or others.

I'm scared my 15yo friend is becoming a tumblr feminist.

She's been telling me lately how she's starting to think all men are scumbags because of her father, and her other friend (who is also older) is a bad influence on her by encouraging her to have the tumblr feminist viewpoint.

I'm not saying she shouldn't have an opinion, but she's too young for this shit.

I know why I still stay on 4chan and plus4chan. lulz, oc, fanart, news, porn and speculation are fine too. But i'm a lurker at heart so I'm basically a leach.
But, yeah, I've noticed a trend of exclusion (i.e. not spoon feeding or yelling at newfags) and the wanting for improvement or return to a better time. It's the nature of the inherently ephemeral beast which leads to posters wanting familiar ground, providing information with external links and back links to older threads. And thus the General Thread concept became a thing. But then the thing people left regular account based forums sprung up The Criclejeck. Now ciclejecking has always been a thing, but the General Threads allowed of the environment for it to flourish. And then 4chan does the thing it likes to do beaten horses: beat it some more and simultaneously try to remove it from associating with it. Be it ghettos; /pol/, /s4s/, /mlp/, /soc/, /vg. Or right out b&; Homestuck, Adventure Time and Gravity Falls Generals, respectively. And from a /co/ prime perspective, things calmed down into Talkback/Update Threads. And the Talkback/Update Thread trend is probably for the better. I love dredging the depths of the Homestuck Generals for artwork, but the unironic gender discussion even wore on my jaded nerves at times. Genuine discussion would be drowned out with posters posting almost anything just to keep threads alive so more people could come back/in in hopes of them contributing something.

I don't think images boards are for you. Try a tamer forum like reddit, they have a subreddit for so much I'm sure you'll find one where they will takl about what you want to talk about. And no, that isn't a "go back to leddit" trolling like it usually is, i'm just suggesting. And I've lurked 4chan since sometime in '07 and I'm a bit too accustomed (or have Stockholm Syndrome) to 4chan's format and it's accoutrements.

What exactly do you mean by a 'tumblr feminist viewpoint', because to me that can mean a few different things. Will she accept an 'equality' standpoint, and that all sexes/genders have their own unique struggles?

Or do you mean she's a feminist but only doing so due to the "scene" and "credibility" there is not because of convictions behind one's words, but because its considered "hip" by today's online standards in certain social circles?

Because me, I consider myself feminist as fuck, but damn tumblr is a trash site.

To me it seems pretty obvious that "tumblr feminist" is used there to mean "someone who thinks ranting angrily, particularly via tumblr, makes them a feminist". Not the clearest terminology in every context, but Tumblr being a site with nothing to really contribute to feminism helps tip off that the term isn't being used to refer to actual feminism, "she's starting to think all men are scumbags" further solidifying that the views she's taking on do not favor equality.

Similarly, the idea of SJW as a derogatory term is based on the idea that someone actually looking for social justice wouldn't call themselves a warrior rather than an activist, champion, or proponent, as well as being a play on the more general term "keyboard warrior". I'm thinking that and "internet busybody" seem to better encapsulate the undesired behavior attributed to SJWs by reasonable people who complain of them.

I notice that you seem to be more concerned about #notallmen-ing her about how she chooses to deal with being abused than you are about doing something about the fact that she's being abused. Have you called child protective services? Or were you too busy worrying about Tumblr?

First of all I'd kinda like an answer for my dilemma instead of you strawmanning the shit out of me for literally no reason. Second, when I say abuse I don't mean ACTUAL abuse like they're hitting her, raping her, or that they hate her, etc. Her parents are divorced and her father is separated from the rest, and she hates him for putting the family through shit. And her brother is just kind of an asshole.

Strawmanning? I can't be expected to know that you were misusing the word abuse. I just saw someone who was complaining that a friend of his who was being abused by the men in her life was going to be down on men because of it instead of complaining about the fact that she was being abused by those men.

As for your "dilemma," what exactly is your dilemma? You're upset because she's starting to believe things you disagree with. There's not really anything you can do about a friend having a different philosophy of life than you other than sharing your own philosophy without a suggestion that she should believe in it too. You either support her search for answers or you try to force her to believe the things you believe....which will only result in making things awkward between you--it won't change her mind.

Never feel bad about having sympathy for people. Everyone fucks up, and everyone is capable of doing evil things. The fact that you are still capable of feeling sympathy for someone despite the fact that they have done something heinous is only indicative of your own inherent humanity, and of the fact that you haven't bought into the "us vs. them" mentality that society tries to shove down our throats.

The guy in question fucked up. He did something evil. And he deserves to be punished for it. But contrary to the memes that people try to sell to make themselves feel better about themselves, everyone is capable of doing horrible things in the right circumstances, and to treat those who do as inhuman is to fail to recognize the darkness in your own soul--and therefore make yourself weaker to the temptations the darkness offers you.

Sympathize with him, and remember that he is not so different from you. It will make it easier for you to catch yourself when you face a situation where you could make a choice that will make you feel good but hurt someone else.

Well, before you establish either a positive or negative opinion of him, it's worth finding out why he is a sex offender. He may be an otherwise good guy who fucked up, he may have been falsely accused, or he may have even been a 'wrong place wrong time' case, BUT he could be a child molester or a rapist (which IMO is fucked-up enough to warrant avoidance). You can't tell much from just a label, but a label shouldn't be ignored.

I don't know what you expect me to do about it. You don't actually have a dilemma beyond deciding whether your friendship with this girl is more important to you than the politics she is beginning to espouse. She's the only one who can decide what her politics are, and the fact that she's "only 15" doesn't actually matter--even a person's parents can't force them to believe something. Your only options are to continue being her friend in spite of this opinion you find odious, or to tell her you can't continue to be around her because the things she is beginning to believe are unpalatable to you.

I wouldn't expect someone to form a philosophy by taking in everything as one huge chunk of information the moment they reach adulthood. At fifteen, she's three years away from reaching age of majority, and one away from looking for a driver's license and a job. If anything she'll be living on her own with no coherent philosophy at all if she doesn't start thinking about it now.

Everyone makes their own mistakes when they're learning, and she needs to be absorbing information at a fair pace if you want her to be informed later. An appreciation for critical thinking aside, the best thing you can get is a variety of perspectives on history, not comprehensive sheltering. The latter is the kind of attitude you're trying to fight against in the first place, using censorship out of fear that free speech is in favor of your opponent.

I suggest pointing to what you consider more positive feminism, and not keeping her in the dark in a way that would only make you look like more evidence of guys being scum. Like with any bad idea, trying to stamp it out just keeps it alive out of spite, while giving alternatives gets it abandoned when it fails on its own. Find other things she's drawn to, encourage her to pursue her own ideas, look for what you have in common, and listen to her.

I live in my folks "retirement" home while they live elsewhere, and pay cheap rent, but I have to get a roommate. I put an ad on Craigslist last night and already have two responses:
A) 44yo male in IT who needs a place for just a few months while house-hunting
B) 24yo female who does digital design, but can't move until April

These may actually work together nicely. I'll have to talk to (A) to see how long he think it would take to house-hunt; if he's certain that he'll be out by April, then (B) could move in once he's gone. Even if (A) can't happen, I could wait until April.

The problem is my folks, who have a say in the roommate. They're deeply religious, and I'm certain that they'll balk at the idea of a female roommate since I'm male. They believe that it's impossible to live with a non-immediate-family-member of the opposite gender without hanky panky going on. (My dad was against even the thought of my sister living with a male cousin and his kid.) I wouldn't be against such action, but as a forever alone I know it won't happen.

I plan to talk to both of them before bringing the idea to my folks, of course. Once I do, I'm hopeful that I can convince them to let me make the decision unless they have strong fear for the safety of myself or the house.
First, they asked me to live there: they didn't want to deal with strangers and would prefer someone they know living there, so I'm helping them out.
Second, I don't want to live there: while it's nice to have a lot more space, I have to drive an extra 30 minutes to get to the places I normally go, and I *hate* driving. I would rather move back to the small bedroom I was renting that was a half mile from my work (while I'm paying cheaper rent, having to pay utilities+gas makes it about even in cost).
Third, I'm the one who has to live with the person: It doesn't matter how much they like whoever, if I don't like them it can't work because of potential schisms. Similarly, they could completely hate the person but I could think the person is chill and would get along well.

In my opinion, the only concern they should have is whether the person can pay the rent. Anything beyond that should be entirely up to me, since I'm the "landlord" and will be directly dealing with them.

If worst comes to worst, I could play the grandkid card with my mom. I know she would like to have grandkids and neither I or my siblings are anywhere close to having kids.

Societal norm is the idea that there are two genders, male and female (hence "binary", or only two settings). Genderfluid/non-binary is the idea that there exist many other genders between absolute male and absolute female, some based on how the person views themselves and some for actual physical reasons. This actually isn't an insane idea, because (at least for that latter idea), it's true. You have your typical XX and XY, but there are variations of those with some changes in chromosomes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersex#Gender_dysphoria) plus situations where there's an extra chromosome (i.e. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XYY_syndrome). There are males who externally look female due to a lack of testosterone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_gonadal_dysgenesis, there was a House episode about this). True hermaphrodites are another example.

When you normally hear these terms, it's by someone who wants to do away with the general either/or view of society. The psychological part is where we get terms like "cisgender", where you view yourself as the gender you were assigned at birth.

Tough to say exactly what she's thinking on the inside in terms of whether or not she's happy single, but it's safe to say that if you've been rejected twice, she's not interested in you. Whether that's because she's not attracted to you or because of her own issues, you just have to ask yourself whether you trust her to be honest to you or whether you think she would lie to you to spare your feelings.

You're best off just moving on and trying to get over her. Work on yourself, and if you need to find someone else to get over her, put your work into doing so.

Like >>396306 suggested, this is not a new development. That said:

It sounds like you need to reject tribalism and labels. Don't refer to yourself as conservative and don't hang out in conservative circles. You are an individual and when you self-apply labels, all you do is give people methods in which to invalidate your opinions. Tribalism is a trap into which people fall because of our inherent desire to belong to a group as social organisms, but it also means that people in other tribes will always consider you not as human as members of their own tribe. Rejecting tribes entirely doesn't quite alleviate that (you're still not part of their tribe, even if you're not part of an "enemy" tribe), but you at least culture jam them a little bit so that it's harder to fall back on habitual reactions and prejudices based on the labels you use to describe yourself.

Did you guys stick around? I didn't. I stopped trying to make friends by being a faggot and just stayed a faggot in my own. I checked some of your tumblrs recently, you guys did some pretty cool shit with webcomics and such. I'm proud of you all.

Also, Bea? If you're still here? I still have that email you sent in 2009 when my life was falling apart that you sent to get me out of a terrible depressive funk. I read it when I'm low, really as low as back then when any little thing felt like a reason to not try anymore. I've gotten better, and I've gotten another job, a stable one with benefits and 401ks and shit. It's really because of that email set.

As I came to a red light in the turn lane on the way to work, I passed someone who threw their cigarette out the window. Normally I would sit and fume, because this is pretty much the easiest way to piss me off, but this time I parked my car, got out, ran back to get the cigarette, and ran up to the person's vehicle. They held out their hand, probably thinking they dropped something of value. Instead, I handed them the cigarette butt, said "Don't throw your cigarettes out the window" and ran back to my car as their light turned green.

Feels good man.

Thus, you have to create something that would force the body to expend the energy stored in the fat without actually having to do any kind of heavy movement.

>>396547
I'm still fairly shy, as well. My biggest problem is misunderstanding or simply missing social cues, such as word inflection and body language. However, I've improved, and the best way to do that is to socialize in situations that don't matter in the long run. Make idle chat with the cashier at the supermarket, for instance. Unless you make a serious social foopah, like punching the cashier in the face, they'll completely forget you as soon as they start serving the next customer. There are no consequences from small slip-ups and it's great way to both practice your socializing skills as well as improve your self-confidence by a sliver.

As far as I know? Yeah, they can. (IMPORTANT NOTE: For the purposes of this discussion, I refer to American copyright law. YMMV in other countries. IANAL, please consult actual legal experts if necessary.)

While someone can say they won’t enforce copyright if you use their works without permission and all that jazz, the law says that work still has the protection of copyright. ‘Anti-licensing’ statements don’t legally override copyright protections; you have to sign away specified rights via legal contract(s) to lose control of said rights (and even then, someone else will still have control of those rights).

So yes, someone can first refuse to enforce copyright, then later choose to enforce copyright—and the law makes it perfectly legal because copyright applies to a work as soon as it exists in a fixed form. I have never heard of a case where someone who initially refused to enforce copyright went back on their word and subsequently had their work stripped of copyright protections/placed in the public domain by a legal proceeding related to their ‘broken promise’. You could make an argument for the original statement of non-enforcement representing a ‘contract’ of sorts, but I don’t think that would work in an actual court of law.
No.396623
Anonymous
>>396618
The issue here is that while releasing stuff to the public domain is effectively a verbal contract, copyright law is set up in such a way that infringement doesn't have to be proven--you're guilty until proven innocent, with copyright claims. Which is blatantly illegal by any rubric you care to use, but publishers have a lot of money to buy votes with.

You still might win your case if you could prove it in court that they had released you to use the material, but most people don't want to spend that much time or money on something like that--which is part of why DMCA C&D's are as effective as they are for preventing protected speech when you don't like what someone is saying. You can silence critics and keep people from sharing information about how dangerous your product is just by abusing copyright law, and it is very rare that you'll get in trouble for it since the system has been set up to protect you from any sort of culpability for douchebaggery.

Pretty much. I was thinking about polygamy, too, as I take the "consenting adults can do whatever the hell they want" path. From that, polygamy is also fine. However, there's a large difference in the situation of polygamy: legal benefits. State-recognized marriages afford a number of additional benefits to the couple with regards of each other, such as default power of attorney, inheritance, etc. Between two individuals this is very easy to lay out, and is the main thing that people fight for when they want gay marriages recognized (homosexuals can already get "married" in churches or other such acts, but get no legal benefits from it if the state doesn't recognize the marriage.)

Polygamy throws a wrench in this because you have multiple connections. It's pretty easy when it's a question about the man doing something for one of the women (since it's a one-to-many), but what if something happens to the man? Who gets to say whether he's kept on life support? The longest married? The one he's stated the most affection for? The one who's had the most of his children? A vote amongst the wives? (And if there are an even number how do you break a tie?)

Legalizing homosexual marriage actually makes the potential situations even harder: What if two of the wives are also in love and want to marry each other, after they've married the man? What if it's just six dudes in a giant interconnected hexagon of sweaty male polygamy?

Polygamy shouldn't be outlawed, but the legal interactions are a huge quagmire. Trying to extend state recognized marriage to more than a pair of individuals is not possible until someone can create a fair and legal setup. However, should someone be able to create a good framework, I would support enshrining it in law just like I do homosexual marriage.

>(hint: its objective)
It's not. Really, it's not. It's all about one simple thing: (mature) consent. An animal cannot give consent. A child cannot give consent. A person sleeping or in a coma cannot give consent. Someone severely mentally disabled cannot give consent (though now I'm curious if there are cases involving someone trying to get married to an individual unable to consent.)

Two adults can give consent. And that's all there is to it. From there, it's about getting the state to recognize that A) two adults can give consent and B) if the state extends benefits to a specific type of two adults, it needs to extend such benefits to any two adults.

An inanimate object cannot give consent, but an inaminate has no legal rights or recognition as life so you can do whatever you want to it. Find a pastor who will hold a ceremony for you and your anime pillow? Go ahead. (The anime pillow will not be able to make decisions on your behalf, however.)

This is why most (if not all) other ‘redefinitions’ of marriage in the United States have travelled through the court system: to make a legal case as to why those redefinitions should be enshrined into civil law. Same-sex marriage supporters have made their case to the point where over half the country lives in a state where SSM is legal. SSM opposition doesn't have much of a leg to stand on; they say they do, but all of their best possible arguments were demolished in most of the lower courts.

SSM is all but a settled question (and SCOTUS will settle it in June). Polygamy is not for all the reasons >>396639 stated and more. Until someone settles the potential legal issues surrounding polygamy and makes a compelling case for it in court, it’ll never be anything more than a form of religious marriage.

Yeah, that's basically it. I think that there should be no efforts to stop people from marrying as many consenting people as they want in a church or whatever they choose to go for, but I do not think the headaches it would cause for the tax code and inheritance law would be worth making new rules for polygamous couples. Live with / marry whoever you want, but you can only sign the license with one of them.

It's really weird thinking about how much I've grown as a person in the last few years. My whole mindset has changed. I'm doing well professionally. I'm pretty happy. With a lot of hard work I've clawed my way up from a chasm of shit social skills and unemployment and mental illness to become an independent, functional adult.

Then I get curious and check up on some of my old interweb buddies from when I was at my lowest. So many of them are stuck in the same ruts, the same shitty situations. Some of it is genuinely through no fault of their own but in a lot of cases I'm seeing zero personal growth. They're almost exactly the same as they were five years ago, just obsessing over slightly different video games. I try not to judge, but it does give me a case of the sads.

I am wondering if someone would try and marry a whole big group (50 person marriage) or if somehow you could be in multiple polygamous marriages at a time (polypolygamy) and have a long chain of in-laws.

Ha, that's neat. I was actually thinking about database relationships (one-to-many, specifically) as I was writing about polygamy. I didn't take it as far as that dude, though.

Some people take longer to recognize the problems around them and start to fix them. Some never do. Some recognize the existence of what you consider problems (such as a lack of social life), but don't consider it a problem for them.

I think I've started creeping out a girl from my class. I ended up making eye contact with her a few times, which isn't a big deal, but it kept happening. And it happened in the sort of way that makes the person think you were staring at them, you know what I mean?

I could tell it was making her uncomfortable so I started making a concentrated effort to not look at her. But now that I've started doing that I can't stop noticing her. So now when I turn my head when she's nearby or she walks past me my eyes just automatically track her for a second longer than they should, and she's definitely noticed a few times. A lot of the time when I show up to class the only empty seats are in places where she ends up being in my peripheral vision, so this ends up happening pretty frequently.

And before anyone suggests she might be interested, after one time it happened today I heard her whisper to the person next to her "He looked again" and she sounded really unhappy about it. I'm kind of known as "the quiet guy who doesn't talk to people much", and I'm sure that makes this way worse.

Honestly at this point I just feel bad and kind of guilty about it. From her perspective it makes total sense to think I'm some creepy stalker. But I can't exactly go up to her and say "I've noticed you may think I've been staring at you, but I haven't been."

I'm a freelance artist, and I'm blessed enough to be able to live off my work nicely enough.

So, its adorable when the few times I log on to facebook I usually find an old classmate from an artclass I took or middle or highschool posting pictures they took of their deviantart-tier 'artwork' and find so many people my old school like and post a lot of impressed emojis and compliments.

I usually add to the compliments or like their art. I don't mention my work on there besides 'freelance illustrator' on the employment field, so I don't really mean to undermine their own stuff. But boy is it just... adorable.

And in the back of my mind I just want to sorta post a lot of my own stuff right there and get all the attention I used to get back when I drew in class. But that's not only incredibly uncouth but super fucking dickish as well so I just sit back down and get back to work.

Ah.
Well, Devin Townsend was an undiagnosed(I think) bipolar musician who did a ton of drugs + booze, and one day, decided that he was ton being 16 and dropped his addictions and got help for his brain problems(if he didn't already have help for them, I don't remember), and then found out that he couldn't make music anymore, which was REALLY discouraging for him because it made him feel like it was the drugs and liquor that made him creative, not his own brain. So now that he'd lost his muse, he had to dig pretty deep into himself to hit his own wellspring of artistry. He came out on the other side every bit as fine a musician as he was before, and made a 4 album series called The Devin Townsend Project about his life and its various aspects and gray areas.
Might be worth looking into if you want more details, I don't remember as much as I thought I did.

My mother is terribly sick and refuses to take her medication, talk to doctors anymore, or eat her dietary supplements even though it's the only way she'll get better. On top of that she's definitely got some severe depression and seems to be convinced none of us love her and that she's better off gone even though that's not the case. Therapists aren't an option since she's always been against them on principle and anytime I try to get her to take her medicine and even insist on standing by her to help her take it she either shoos me off, refuses to take it anyway, or goes on a rant claiming I'm trying to get rid of her and send her away or something. I don't know what to do but it pains me to see her waste away when she's clearly inflicting this on herself and nothing I say to her convinces her to actually take care of herself. On top of that her refusal to take her medicine is starting to cause her early-onset Alzheimer's. What the fuck should I do. The only person I can really blame is the first shitty doctor who put her on the regimen that got her in this state in the first place as a treatment for a different ailment.

This basketball game had enough drama on its own. Friday night's contest between Flower Mound High School and Plano East went into three overtimes.

But what made social media circles over the weekend happened just beyond the confines of the court. A picture was tweeted out showing a sign being held up Flower Mound's student section that read "WHITE POWER."

http://www.wfaa.com/story/news/local/denton-county/2015/02/17/plano-east-parents-students-object-to-sign-at-game/23536145/

Having a serious crisis of faith. Don't know what I really believe in anymore. I'm facing the horrible realization I can't really call myself Catholic. I mean, I'm a bisexual transgender person in an polyamorous relationship (how the fuck that last part happened I have no idea). I'm okay with porn, masturbation, divorce, contraception, abortion, sex, drugs and rock n roll. I resent that the pinnacle of femininity is this demure, sterile virgin and mother with no power of her own. And whatever hope I had of the new pope being decent has been dashed by him comparing people like me to nuclear weapons.

So what do I have? What do I believe in? And what do I do to connect to whatever that is? I feel there is a God (or many, who knows?) and souls, but I'm soured on Christianity, and it's causing me major cognitive dissonance. I guess I should be used to losing things, parting ways from bits of my self, but this is almost bigger than losing my parents.

Real Talk; Your just gonna have to find your own path, or don't. Make up a belief system that helps you cope with the harshness of reality. I'm more or less Agnostic and raised sorta-Christian. My family wasn't one for church, but my mom had a saying that went like "you can prey on the toilet" which she explained is that you don't need a central organization to dictate how or when to pray/believe. BUT some people like having an external loci of controle that assists them or gives them a guideline to live by. I recommend legitimently sitting down and reading parts of the bible to see if you can filter some of it's stories into how they pertain to you. Or The Dharma. Or the Koran [it's an interesting read].

Faith crises happen. Being who you are in no way reflects what religion you can be, though, except for maybe Hinduism, which I think you might have to be born into.

I wrote a poem. It's called God Took a Shit.


God took a shit
and was quite proud of it
so he named it Man
and didn’t flush the can
and left it there to sit

When God was away
the shit said “Hip Hip Hooray”
and splattered the walls and the floors
and the windows and the doors
and laughed and played in the sink

When God came home
he saw what man does left alone.
So He washed him away
but a bit of shit stayed
and the smell took God to the brink

God said “Fuck this I’m out”
And left the house
And there the shit plays
To this very day
Making everything stink.

This might sound weird, but
does anyone know any porn where the participants seem to enjoy the sex?

Because its been a while since I've seen any porn at all but trying to get back to it, it just looks all so... begrudging.

Take advantage of the voyeur tag.

See, it's like this; I recently joined a facebook group for single nerdy people, and a young lady who's also in the group sent me a friend request pretty much out of the blue (I replied to a "where does everyone live" thread she started) and it turns out she's going to be in my city this Saturday - she's going to a Stranglers concert, but she'll be in the city centre for the whole day - and I suggested that I show her around.

Now, here's where ithe universe realises "Minifig's getting somewhere with a girl!": when I asked her what time she was arriving, she didn't seem to know; I assumed she was taking the train, but she eventually told me that her stepdad is dropping her off near his workplace... but she doesn't know where that is. And maybe it's just me and my Asperger's, but she seems matter-of-fact about this whole thing; no emoticons, no "lols", just treating this like it's some kind of transaction (granted, we don't know each other at all, but she seems to be quite deliberately keeping her distance. Either that, or she's letting me know she doesn't think I'm funny).

Here's where the alarm bells start ringing... I have no idea how old she is. She hasn't put her birth date on facebook, and there's a recent photo of her wearing school uniform at what is clearly a classroom. The group has a "nobody under 16" policy, which could still potentially make her about 11 years my junior, which is kinda skeevy even by my standards. And yes, I should've checked first, but you have to remember that I'm a fucking idiot.

Oh, and here's an interesting tidbit; when I gave her my number "just in case", she claimed she didn't have a phone, even though facebook was clearly telling me that her replies were from a mobile device (besides, who the hell doesn't have a phone these days?). Of course, she might simply have felt I was moving too fast, but given that I'm going to meet her for the first time and I have no idea when she's arriving... Ugh, judging on how most of this evening went then I'll most likely never hear from her again, and I've been worrying about nothing. So it goes...

Graphic novel adaptations of his first three Discworld books (and Guards, Guards!), as well as a nice claymation adaptation of Truckers, the first book in a decent "young adults" trilogy he wrote in 1989. Plus, he co-wrote a novel with Neil Gaiman, who's been hit really hard by this.

Well, big fucking surprise; she stood me up. I'm not angry or depressed about it, per se... just frustrated that it's happened to me again (although all the previous times other women on the internet stood me up involved me going to the city they lived in, instead of the other way around). Although a Dutch anon on regular /co/ just said she wanted to do me as I whispered opinions about Spirou into her ear, so I must be doing something right.
