I prayed to the snow gods for a nasty end of winter just for the Scandinavian countries, so you can thank me later. ;D

Well, I don't expect it to last for a very long time though.

That being said, there's still some snow in the air.

Well, the Blackhawks won.

Boooo.

I'm so over winter here in Boston.


Just a thought - how would you guys feel about having a general alcohol discussion thread, since it's popped up a couple times here I figure having its own thread is a good idea.

I'm all for this if you want to make one. We could call it the "Responsible Decisions Thread" or something.

I think my first "celebrity crush" was Sailor Mars.

Of course, I didn't think of her that way, because I didn't fully realize I was attracted to both genders until I was in college.

I kept telling myself I was straight. Now I'm like, how could I have been so dense?

I've never had tequila, true fact.

Anyone seen anything good on TV lately? I watched two episodes of Louie last night, the show still hasn't clicked for me, but I think it's alright. Not really watched TV this weekend, though I said finish all of Black Mirror on Tuesday.

I'm all for a thread were we can discuss our favorite drinks, our favorite drinking activities, and hell even perhaps post those embarrassing nights you can't remember but have heard of.

I think my first legit male crush was an actual boy I knew. I was basically gay until I hit puberty.

And then I turned into a beautiful bisexual butterfly. :-D

If we're talking bout legit crushes irl and not people you see on TV, it had to be a classmate of mine, stacy was her name. Only just started getting a thing for her at the start of 7th grade, and dating hit me towards the end of it when it would have been nothing much, cause of our move. I remember trying to be all assertive on her, like this one I was all...
"Hey stacy I don't like your hoop earrings.
"So?"
"I just think you would look better if you wore your cute little diamond ones."
"What are you my boyfriend?"
"No...
"So don't be telling me what to wear!"
"Well I could become your boyfriend and then you wear the ones I find you cute in!"


That convo never finished cause of class starting, and I never advanced it further then that. Also distinctly remember standing behind another girl in my class on the lunch line and out of nowhere popping my head next to hers on her shoulder and going "your hair smells pretty today". Irony is that my sleazy 12-13 year old self had more balls to compliment a girl then my 19 year old level headed self does. :/

i think it's more that your personality changed Chespin

you reflect back on that moment and you're like "woah" but it's okay because you were 12/13

Yeah as I said, I'm more level headed. If I talked to girls like that now I would probably get a slap in the face.

I have a friend who's ridiculously, unfairly adorable. This is one of our conversations, verbatim.

"Hey, Blaize (that's me), how are you?"
"What?"
"How are you?"
"Oh."

I'm such a fucking idiot.

My first "real" crush (like, in terms of being obsessive about it) was a boy named Naveen who was in an after-school club with me, this was like 5th grade. I liked him because he was really tall and attractive and charming, and he was really talented at music and smart. At least, that's what I remember. Then I found out he was kind of a douchebag and lost interest, and I think I started having a crush on some other male friend who was less douchey.

The first crush on a girl I knew that I remember was in eighth grade, this girl in my math class named Galina. She was really beautiful and really smart and we had a lot of interests in common, and I remember really really really wanting to be friends with her, more than any other girl I met, and staring at her in class. It started to occur to me that maybe these feelings weren't so different from when I got crushes on boys, but I didn't want to feel that way because my school was very homophobic, so I quashed those feelings and was in massive denial about my interest in girls until I got to college.

Lol I'm Facebook friends with both of them now. And they're both still pretty good-looking.

No matter how many times the girl I'm talking about says "it's fine" when I call myself a weirdo, I'm never satisfied. Such is the way of the self-hating pessimist.

Spend past 3 hours watching old Oscars footage. I want be a actress....that will never happen.

Hopefully I'll have daughter in the future and she'll be an actress.

Pushing your own dreams on your children sounds like a plan.

A slight nudge wouldn't hurt. If she wants to be something else then she can but a slight nudge

It makes us very uncomfortable but we don't want to be me. I freeze out guys after they do that.

As someone else who is a massive pessimist when it comes to dating, I speak from experience when I say that acting insecure and apologizing is probably the thing that's holding you back much more than the actual awkward behavior you're sorry about itself. Just chill out, and try at least to feign confidence, even if you don't feel confident. People don't like to date sad sacks.

I don't plan to date her, because a) I have no chance and asking her out would just serve to weird her out and embarrass me, b) she's switching schools next year, c) I never want a serious relationship ever again, and d) I hate myself and so you have no idea how many things I can do to ruin everything have popped into my head. She's just kinda... tempting, I guess. :I

I sorta plan to just project all my human trust and feelings into her, and then when she leaves next year, I'll pretend like all my feelings have left with her and I'll never make the mistake of trusting someone ever again.

If you pretend you are good at something long enough you eventually become good at it. Proven fact.
