[etiolate]

we have to do some stupid ass highschool shit for this writing class

meaning we have to memorize and recite a Shakespeare sonnet

I didn't fully read through my sonnet before choosing it

Which means I didn't realize I will be reciting a sonnet with this word

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/niggard

And I was hoping there was some pleasant way of saying it, but clicking on the pronounce audio on that site is not helping my cause.

I don't go to church unless I have to. That being said, I have bible class at my parents house almost every sunday. Mainly because I don't feel like starting a fight. It's odd because my parents are having trouble with my two youngest brothers, and they seem to think bible class is going to help. They just seem completely out of touch. But at the same time my brothers are complete assholes and rather ungrateful. I was an ass when I was younger, but I realized there were certain things I had to do to get by, whether it was doing my chores or not starting a fight over church. They won't even do those small things consistently, and everytime I go to my parents house I witness multiple arguments or petty verbal sniping that would have resulted in my death if I tried that shit 10 years ago. Truly pisses me off, especially considering my mom isn't healthy and them constantly teaming up on her is indefensible.

meh, we should take this to the log thread 

Have your parents read the whole Bible? What's interesting about Bible Study is that they don't really seem to authentically study the Bible. It's more like they study certain Books.

I only go to church when my mothers asks me to. I don't do communion, I sing sometimes because I like the songs (even if they're beyond morbid, with an extreme emphasis on death which probably hails from slavery), and when they pray I either stand up and don't say a thing and look at everyone else, or I just remain seated.

They've read the bible. Our classes are exclusively in the new testament, and exclusively in Pauline books.

When we pray I go along with the crowd, although I don't close my eyes and don't really bow my head. My grandma will constantly say she wants to see me preaching one day, and I kind of just sit there with nothing to say.

I think my father is really open. He rarely goes to church these days but he's still a devout Christian. My late grandmother was a Buddhist. What's interesting about the black community is how religiously diverse it is. It's not just Christianity and Islam, it's those two, Buddhism, and even stuff like voodoo.

The folks I know are rather closed off to other religions, which baffles me. Obviously a Christian would disagree with a Muslim on things, but you'd think there would be some mutual respect or something. Instead I often get a hostile, disparaging vibe from Christians in relation to their opinions on other religions, regardless of the similarities (say moral issues for instance).

I love oxycontin

Just putting that out there

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Reading the last few posts made me realize: I'm totally fine being a virgin throughout my 20s. Fuck college-age women. Stupid bitches.

Then it'll be your 30s and you'll be ok with that

I'm just being bitter.

I don't really care ever. It isn't about losing my virginity (although no one here is going to believe that), and I'm not anti-social, I don't hate women and I'm not really in control when it comes to who I ultimately fall in love with. But I'm not going to "play the game". I ain't the one for that kinda shit.

When I was a bitter 17 year old virgin, I was fine with living the rest of my life as a celibate.  "I started varsity football, had a lot of friends, I worked two jobs, I was pretty smart, had a bright future, and these bitches still didn't want anything to do with me?  Well fuck them."  Then I was 19 and realized that most women in their 20s will expect their boyfriends to have some kind of experience.  The further you put it off, I imagine the worse it will get because they're not going to want to spend their time dealing with guys who don't know how to kiss or are two pump chumps I figured.  So I changed my mentality, starting busting ass in the gym, and got laid at 19.  Dropping 60 pounds or so helped out a lot on the confidence front.

In hindsight, my "fuck me?  well, fuck you" was just a defense mechanism and a justification for laziness and social ineptitude.  In my opinion, you should drop that mentality and try to work on your women skills.

[Raban]

I'm working on it. I just don't expect much will come of it.

However I have to stress that the women here are not interesting to me in the least. I haven't met a girl worth the trouble in my entire life. If I'm going to step up my game, it isn't going to be here in California.

EDIT: Reread my post and it comes off as snobbish. I'm not meaning this in the way that none of them are 'good enough' for me. I'm meaning that on a basic level I don't get along with these women well enough to pursue them.

EDIT2: There's no way I can say what I'm trying to say without it sounding like bullshit. So just ignore everything under that first line.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Writing off an entire state of women?

I don't feel like playing Roissy but I just think that putting it off makes it exponentially harder for you as women get older, they expect men to have some kind of experience.  Being an awkward 14 year old when you're 24 isn't really endearing, I suspect.

Yeah, see I can't really win here. No matter what I'm coming off as a bitter dick who should wise up and do something to get with more women.

When the reality is I really, REALLY, don't care.

If all relationships boil down to is how good the sex is, then I'm never having any of it. If I can't be in love with somebody who will have the patience to deal with my shortcomings like I will have for hers, then what the hell is the point?

I was bitter before, but this is real talk now. I don't hate women, they're wonderful and beautiful etc. etc. (can't continue without sounding like I'm putting the pussy on a pedestal), but I just haven't found one worth the chase.

Thanks for your concern, though, I've really lost all hope for myself. I'll probably just go gay.

[Cormacaroni]

Why can't you be in love with somebody who will have the patience etc?

Life is not always like the rom-coms, sure, but this goal seems perfectly attainable to me.

By experience, I wasn't talking just about sex but anyway, good luck.

[Mupepe]

You can find someone willing to deal with your shortcomings.  It's pretty easy when someone actually cares about you.  But for most women you have to show that you're working on it.  And not trying to assume anything, but the way your posts are coming off you make it sound like you're just going to wait around and not make the effort.  That's what women (people in general) don't like.  They mostly want to see you at least try for them.

Oh and great sex is a huge, huge, huge part of a relationship.  Especially at the beginning.  Great sex chemistry really needs to be there.

[The Fake Shemp]

I think Mupepe tried to tell us to find someone who will settle

[demi]

[Mupepe]

I think Mupepe tried to tell us to find someone who will settle

Nah.  Find someone who doesn't just say fuck it and bail when they see something they don't like, but they're willing to try to work on it.  And for you to do the same with their flaws. 

[Don Flamenco]

also, down with ice queens.   they've usually got something (or many things) completely wrong with them. 

[Madrun Badrun]

Just got this:

Dear Arvie:

We would like to update you on your application for a USRA NSERC award.  Although your application was not successful in receiving an award, you were one of the applicants placed on the Reserve List.  What this means is that should any of the winning candidates choose to decline his/her award (and this does happen), CGSR will then choose a replacement from the reserve list.  Successful candidates have until February 26 to accept or decline after which time the reserve listed applicants are considered.  If your application is ultimately unsuccessful, we are pleased to tell you that the Department has decided to step in and provide some funds even if in the end NSERC cannot.

This means that with matching funds from your supervisor, Dr. [Name], you will be able to be work on research over the summer months in the Department.  You should get in touch with Dr. [Name] to discuss the project you will be working on and to get a better insight into the particular summer research activities in which you will be involved. Then, please let your supervisor and me know whether you are willing to accept this offer or not.

Congratulations on your high level of academic achievement and your interest in getting involved in research.  We look forward to having you as part of the Department's research activities this summer.

Kind of disappointed it probably won't be an NSERC, as once you get one it's easier to get another, and if you get one for grad school you're pretty much set.  But still it's pretty awesome regardless.

No. I agree with everything in your post, and I figured I'd come off like that, but I do give the effort when I'm interested. I just become uninterested after a short while.

I understand that sex is a huge deal too, trust me.

Really I feel stuck here. If I go out and try for women I get turned down over and over and over again. And when I give up and want to take a break then all the dudes I know keep giving me shit about what I'm doing and I should try harder etc. etc.

[Mupepe]

That's understandable.  It does sound like you're genuinely not that interested at the moment.  Being alone is a lot easier than trying to force something.

Get a hooker though.  Then post about it.  and post pictures.  of you.  rawr.

Eh, I'd rather become a pornstar then get a hooker.

I heard you lose your non-replenishable chi through ejaculating anyway. 

Then I can tell you with 100% confidence my chi is GONE.

[Mupepe]

non-replenishable?  that's gotta be bs.  everyone loves to get off.  god wouldn't do that.

Nothing wrong with not having sex or being with women.  A lot of men do it.  Monks, for example.  They're pretty cool. 

Homos too

The girl I'm chatting up is even less experienced about this sort of thing than I am. Her uncle is sheriff, and most of my best friends are criminals haha.

The weird part is, she doesn't know that, but does know the people in question, and doesn't know about what they do.

[demi]

This conversation is over

[cool breeze]

Not only did one of my professor skip out on material due to the snow days, he pushed the test up today without notice.  It's good to know that a 1/3rd of my final grade is an F; saves me from having any ambitious for this asshole class.

[Madrun Badrun]

That's really shitty

[cool breeze]

However I have to stress that the women here are not interesting to me in the least. I haven't met a girl worth the trouble in my entire life. If I'm going to step up my game, it isn't going to be here in California.

If you don't talk to women then you won't know if they're worth it or not.  I'm sitting here furious about my cuntrag professor and just surveying the room I can see a dozen or so attractive girls.  To say all of them aren't worth it or interested is incorrect even if we wanted to talk about statistics.  If you watch the series Peep Show, there is a great episode where one of the characters stands around looking at women thinking "she has a vagina, she has a vagina, that one definitely has a vagina."  Anyone can get a girl if they really wanted.  But if you don't, it's nothing to worry about.  At your age it's probably either sex or benefits of a relationship (and negative).  If you don't care for any of that, there is nothing wrong with that.  But if you do, then I dunno, chances are you'll be able to find someone as long as you don't have ridiculously high standards or are painfully shy.  Chances of someone approaching you are less likely.

Then again, I'm not one to talk.  I'm pretty weird.

and seriously, fuck this professor.  This is a required class and I want to graduate as soon as I can.

[Phoenix Dark]

Raban you're a smart, cool guy who's into various things (cooking for instance). There's no doubt in my mind you wouldn't have problems talking to girls. Lose some weight and you'll become even more confident.

Thanks, man. I hope you aren't trolling or anything.

And for everyone who says that I'm making blanket statements: the cool thing about being in the friend zone all the time is you really get to know who women are when you're around them. I've befriended countless women, most of which I had at least a passing interest in, and by becoming their friend I got to know them and through knowing them eventually disliked them. They just aren't interesting.

Everyone in my area is either a stoner or a partier. The former usually already have boyfriends, and the latter I stay away from because I'm not a party-guy.

[Phoenix Dark]

No trolling. And I agree about friend zones. I'm sorry, but the idea that every woman you meet should be on your fuck list is sophomoric. I have a couple really good female friends. I've had cases where one wanted to be more, and when I turned her down our friendship took a hit; it's still an unspoken barrier between us, but we've become good friends again.

As I said yesterday, I'm most successful and confident when I act like myself. Honestly I don't think I'd be good in a romantic relationship (I'm a loner) right now, so I'm not looking for one. But if it happened and I was interested enough, cool beans.

[Mupepe]

I think PD and I would probably make a pretty good couple.  The "friend zone" only sucks when you're actively pursuing the girl.  And knowing a girl beforehand will help eliminate a lot of guessing from just meeting and dating chicks.

[Raban]

See, I don't hate the friend zone like other people.

I like being friends with women, I haven't met one where I wanted anything more, though.

[Mupepe]

You don't ever think about how good it would feel to be inside them?  You two are chilling platonically and she is laying on the couch with her feet and ass towards you and head laying on the other end.  You look over and just see the ass crack in her pants and how it leads between those sweet little legs and you dream about slowly opening up those thighs and kissing your way to her sweet juices while she says "what are you doing?" but doesn't stop and she slowly starts to moan as you unbutton her pants and softly kiss her lower abdomen awaiting the sweet surprise inside.

I wasn't convicted

[Raban]

Raban you sound like you want a serious relationship from the get go and talk about dates and shit. Why not just get laid first? Just get your dick wet. It doesnt have to be true love you know 

Because I'm more interested in the journey, not the destination?

[Raban]

Homo.

It's a conundrum. When it comes to just boning, I could totally do that with a dude. Relationship-wise I'm only interested in women. I just couldn't be seriously in love with a man, but I could definitely bone/be boned by one.

Wait a second, did I just come out of the closet?

[demi]

I knew that too. Come to me, my pincushion. I have videogames.

[Madrun Badrun]

Jesus and here I thought Jin would be the first one to come out of the closet in this thread.

[Reb]

Jin is in the closet?

[Raban]

I knew that too. Come to me, my pincushion. I have videogames.

I think you did. No suprise you're not interested in girls dude.

Ah! But that's the thing, I AM. I think women are way more attractive than dudes, but according to many different testimonies, gay sex > straight sex simply because everyone understands each other.

I can't get it up if I'm looking at a naked dude, but the idea of anal is pretty tempting.

OH NO I'M HOMO

[demi]

You dont have to bootyhump. I'm ok with just watching some movies and rubbing one out. We can go casual.

[The Fake Shemp]

Whats wrong with getting laid Will? You aint gonna tell me you were in love with every girl you had sex with right?

Of course not. Yet, save for a bad decision (or two), I genuinely liked the person. I don't put out for just anyone!

... And in all honesty, when I have, I have felt bad about it afterwards.

[Reb]

Isn't the lack of understanding a part of the adventure?

[Mupepe]

He might not get it up looking at dudes because he keeps thinking "this is wrong.  i'm not gay.  i'm not.  i'm not" 

It might have to be right there to know if he'll actually go through with it.

Isn't the lack of understanding a part of the adventure?

yes. 

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Raban is young and confused.  Go to college and join a frat.  Eventually there will be some m4m action as well as some sorostitutes.  You can figure where you stand after the first semester after you've sampled both.

tbh I'm not. I don't see the point in lying on an internet forum. And I spent all my puberty years trolling people over the internet, I'm done now.

You can just ask for a girl to buttfuck you with a strap on, or stick a finger in your ass while fucking.

Yeah that'd be pretty nice.

He might not get it up looking at dudes because he keeps thinking "this is wrong.  i'm not gay.  i'm not.  i'm not"

No, I don't think that. If I'm on like 4chan or something and come across gay porn, I don't think it's wrong, I just don't care for it. It isn't an overtly negative or positive response. I don't think men, the way their bodies are shaped, are attractive. All really harsh angles and the like. I love curves.

I think I've already been over this, but I can totally go for transgendered men, as some pass the look test with flying colors, but most MtFs don't keep their penis, and if they're anatomically a woman, might as well go with a from-birth woman.

And if I was in a situation where it was "right there", I can say pretty doubtlessly I'd be down. In my head I'm kind of a slut, so I'd be all over that shit in a jiffy. Hard bottom.

I dunno, man. I've never seen sexuality as a black/white thing, and I'm not confused about it. Sex = OK with any gender. Relationships = Only women need apply.

Raban is young and confused.  Go to college and join a frat.  Eventually there will be some m4m action as well as some sorostitutes.  You can figure where you stand after the first semester after you've sampled both.

No way. I have enough gay friends that I don't need to do this, but testing feminine waters is much tougher.

[Raban]

You should move to a place like Brighton.

What, in England? Isn't it expensive to live there?

Somehow I've never taken a girl's virginity. In all likelihood, I will do so soon. What do we think about the experience, 'bore?
