It’s the orgasm and the release of dopamine that helps, not the act


Weed, wank, water, shower, nap = best hang over cure

I'm partial to aspirin and taking a nap in a hot bath while it takes effect.

I’ve had a bad cough and got a prescription for that lean. I have no idea how some of y’all drink 2ozs of that stuff in one go though.

Doesn’t it just instantly knock your ass out?

Oddly enough, I've heard that parasitic infection also prevents allergic symptoms from expressing, and I've been mainlining Enterprise, so symbiotic animals being used for cures seems very attractive right now.

I'm going to share something batshit crazy with you all since I feel like we're starting to gel now - and something ive been thinking about for a long time that I feel I need to get off my chest and random strangers on the internet is the best to do this because i would get laughed at irl.

I helped Maria sharapova win wimbledon 2004.

I was a young sad, lonely 14 year old boy. I lived with my grandparents, who were out all day, so that meant I got to steal the livingroom tv which had cable at the time. I was never a tennis fan, but flicking through the channels the live feed for the wimbledon match sharapova vs williams came on - when I saw sharapova I had a crush instantly, and learned she was 17, not much older than me ! :o

I dont know what came over me, I started shouting at the tv, as if I was trying to speak to her directly. I was keeping her updated on the scores ( so she could focus and not be distracted by looking away), reassuring her whenever she made a fumble, going nuts when she won a point, and generally giving her moral support the whole time.

By the end, Maria did amazing and won. From her focus to the stupid hints i tried to leave to test to see if she could actually hear me or not - I was pretty convinced she could hear me the whole time. I did something really sad, i recognise that now, so please dont laugh too much. I told her my name, and slowly told her my phoned number over and over  (i had a mobile back then).  Could not fucking believe my eyes, after hugging her dad, she does a b-line for her phone! Any rational person would think shes going to call someone shes close to but is not there - like her mum, but 14-year old me, especially after seeing he spend a randomly long amount of time fiddling with her phone before trying to make a call - obviously thought she was putting in my number.

So, I did one more test...

I told her "You can thank me if you want, but please dont say my name" - just before she was about to commence the post-match interview. Obviously in moments like these, the winner likes to remind everyone who helped them by shouting them out as thank. I know you're not going to believe me when I say this, but this is 100% fact. At the very end of that list of thank yous, she said " And I want to thank one more person, i wont say who you are, but you know who you are". I know right?

WHAT THE FUCK?[/color][/glow][/b]

So the show ended, and I was left in a state of disbelief. I sat there looking at my phone, no notifications. Was I being an actual dumb fuck? I went into my room to play some melee and fall asleep. I thought about it for a few days after, but then life took over and a few weeks passed and I was on holiday at my grandparents caravan up north.

My grandparents were out to the market so I thought - being alone, I would chill with some burnout 3. As I was playing, my mobile - which was in my left pocket - went off. Someone was calling, as I pull the phone out my pocket, I quickly read the screen. It's an unknown number, but its weird, it doesnt look like a UK number. Back then, mobile numbers were not so spammed by telemarketers as they were landlines, and websites werent so desperate to try get as much personal info as possible. So really the only people who had my number were my family and friends from school. Plus it wasnt a company or premium number either, I cant remember what it looked like, but best guess would be a foreign area code.

When I saw that foreign number, my heart stopped, the thought of it actually being Maria Sharapova lasted for about half a second before my mind was dominated with "what if someone near by heard you back then, and is playing a prank on you? you were pretty loud.", but i couldn't not answer it, right?

So I answered the call, put it to my ear, "Hello is this Greg?" in a motherfucking russian accent. But it didnt sound exactly like her on the tv, so I was like nah fuck this shit mentally me response was rather aggressive "what is this a fucking prank? FUCK OFF". And hung up.

That was the only time that number ever called me.

In the years to follow, I wouldnt think about it so much, just from time to time. I've always pinned it as a prank, but I just can't help but think, really? I mean, it was a foreign number, and I lived next to an elderly couple and family gang house who knew nothing about technology. Anything past those houses you wouldnt have heard me clearly enough, and anyway, if it was a prank, would they really have given up after one try after going to all that effort?

I just dont fucking know man, what if, y'know?

There used to be a video on youtube of the full match with the post match interview, but its gone I think. When I find it, I will update this story, so if you have doubts that my intentions behind this post are genuine, hopefully you will see how this story fits into place. So far the best I could I find is a clip of her going for her phone (but this really lacks context of the whole event) and an interview where she tries to over explain being on her phone for so long by forgetting her mum would be on a flight at that time - but no - I want you to see the actual event.

I met Kate Bush in a bed-and-breakfast once, it was a dream. She and I sang a duet together, improvised on the fly. It was glorious. Then I remembered it was a dream, so I asked for her phone number. Even wrote it down, worried I'd forget her number; stuffed the note in my jeans' front pocket.

I left those jeans in the dream.

I mean I'm sure your rational mind already came to the same conclusions but really your story amounts to a victory speech featuring an anonymous shout out (not exactly that uncommon) and receiving an unknown call from someone with an accent weeks after from a number you assume is foreign even though you can't remember it, not that it would be anything less than mundane anyway in a country as multicultural as the UK.

Not to look down on you or anything, despite being a materialist and rationalist there's plenty of times I was troubled by déjŕ-vu (of the prescient dreams variety) and I know how strong the guts feeling can be for those despite how tenuous the evidence is.

Your tale is at least grandiose and cute.

You're looking for validation, via other people's belief, of something that was uniquely personal. If you truly believe that it happened, if your faith is unshakeable that it is true, you wouldn't need external validation. What's bothering you is your own doubt.

I've had weird stuff happen in my life (not that Kate Bush story — that was just a dream), and I know what I experienced. It doesn't matter to me if anyone agrees with me stating what I experienced.

Years ago I showed my dick to Jackie Guerrido on TV when she had a scandalously  low cut minidress on one day. I rubbed it against the TV and as I did she got all flustered on air. I knew it was because she suddenly felt my lust from thousands of miles away.

The latest is the my wife went back and said, "Sure, but you should be aware. My husband is honest and will tell you exactly what it's like." Her friend said that'd be fine and that her son will compile a list of questions. Haven't heard from her since LOL.

Just got back to So Cal from my New Orleans trip. Had its ups & downs. On the positives, I learned so much history, it's such a unique and interesting historical area because of the melting pot of creole/cajun/black/white/indian culture in the earlier years. Every tour I went on was great and very informative. At night I'd be on wikipedia further looking up all kinds of stuff. The people are also awesome. I took a lot of Lyft rides outside the French Quarter and every driver I met was really great and we had interesting conversations. Music, of course was everywhere and tons of great jazz. Some pretty good seafood/creole food too although I got some reservations about the food (lack of variety in cuisine and everything outside Creole/Cajun food was kinda mediocre compared to So Cal food imo). Also, some cool architecture.

What I didn't like so much was the melting pot of styles creates a really weird clashing aesthetic. Like you have classic antebellum exteriors, french style exteriors, basically none of the streets match and every street is a mish-mash of styles, then you have the olden look but then modern tourists everywhere and people hawking crap, and people playing cool jazz on the street and the most hipster-stuff I've ever seen on the street (ie, hipster dudes typing poems on typewriters or playing giant chess in the middle of the street to a crowd). Like unlike some older historic district-type places I've been to in Boston or Charleston, the city feels clashing and I never felt like "oh man, what a classic historical area".

And I hated the shit out of Bourbon street. Just tons of crowds of drunk tourists and bars. It's basically just Vegas street. Maybe if you're a big bar person it's cool, but since I'm not a bar person and not really a crowd person, I couldn't wait to get off Bourbon every time I passed it. Also the weather was crap but the whole east coast got that snowy freezing cold front, so that's not really a New Orleans thing and was just bad timing for a trip unfortunately. Still went and did everything but just froze my ass off doing it.

Glad I went and gained a lot of good knowledge and picked up some new food & drinks that I dig. Probably wouldn't go back though. Not really my scene, although I liked Frenchman Street which reminded me of a cooler, more musical, Santa Ana by me. If I went back I'd stay on Frenchman rather than French Quarter.

And it's always nice to get away for a bit. Always seems to give some time for self-reflection on life and energy to make changes back at home.

Oh and Beignets ended up growing on me by the 3rd try  :lol

I did!

Actually, I eat a lot of seafood, been eating shrimp, lobster, crab my whole life...but I had never ate a crawfish until this trip. THEY ARE THE BEST! I actually prefer the taste of them to shrimp/lobster/crab and am gonna try finding them or Crawfish Etouffee in So Cal. Also had some really good Gator tail which I hadn't had in like 20 years. We used to have a place that did blackened gator down here and the owner was a friend of the family, but they eventually went out of business because there wasn't a market. Grew up eating gator there as a kid but yeah they closed like 20 years ago and I hadn't had it since.  Was so good here!

Also had a pretty good sandwich at this super hipster place that's highly rated, Turkey & the Wolf. And had some excellent catfish.

One thing that was weird is the shrimp in New Orleans taste funny coming from California shrimp. Like even plain, no seasoning, no breading, it tastes weird in a not good way to me. I noticed this at two different places before I stopped ordering shrimp. My friend who was with me thought the same. Might just be that CA shrimp is from Baja CA usually and New Orleans shrimp is from Gulf of Mexico and they're different species of shrimp or something, but wasn't a fan.

My wife's family has this traditional shortbread cookie recipe they've made for centuries and they're really quite amazing. They've been featured in the news. And she makes them during christmas mainly. I call them "Heisenbergs" because they're really above and beyond anything else in the market. (She's taken to sprinkling them with blue sugar). Anyhoo, I gotta go into my corporate office tomorrow, might be the last time before christmas and my wife just made a batch of Heisenbergs and I was like "You know, I should take some into the office." Then I proceed to taste one and was like "On second thought, no one there deserves these."

There is no land mass there and the ice keep shifting. My guess is that they don't want to give people the wrong idea by showing old and inaccurate data. The satellite coverage over the North Pole is probably quite sparse.

Man, a lot of my friends that call themselves feminist have turned hard against trans women. WTF?

I wouldn't be shocked if a lot of self-professed feminists viewed trans women as a conspiracy from The Patriarchy™.

Ah, good old "left eating itself" bullshit again. Wouldn't want to have it any other way. Let's fracture into a million opposing -but ideologically pure- factions so that we can better deal with the united front of the status quo and the right. What's the worst that could happen? :-\

....I'm making the assumption, of course, that a (formerly) trans-accepting pro-female group is politically left-leaning, even if ever so slightly. I feel confident in that guess.

They're called TERFs.
