Hopefully he realizes how he upset you, and won't let it happen again.

You're asking yourself if maybe he likes you, he's just too 'confused' to deal with it?
That right there. He's jerking you around, but is desperate to not be the bad guy. You're trying to protect your own feelings with these projections and hypotheticals, and that's just digging yourself deeper.
I'm sorry people suck.

The conflict in Israel. We still have no idea how or why or what the hell happened.
No more NPR on road trips for us.
Last night, we argued about Google smart cars. I'm skeptical, he's a believer. We're ridiculous.

That's some sad comment/username synergy.

It happened to one of my lobes - it hurts every bit as bad as it sounds like.
It's laterally pierced back together, now. I don't think it's noticeable except that the other ear is obviously gauged.
I wasn't going for a record, just a stretching accident. And by accident, I mean a stupid person grabbed it and pulled it.
P…

Dman109 likes himself, and I guess that's what matters.

I guess I just stumbled on a bad one, that's a shame.

Really? The first time I commented there, I told an innocuous joke and got reamed out with paragraphs about how dumb jokes weren't welcome or appropriate there and I should go back to the A.V. Club.
So I did. Never went back to The Dissolve - that incident left me with the distinct impression that 'my kind' weren't…

It might be useless advice, but you could try giving yourself time to wallow in anxiety, after which you will remove it from your thinking. It's worked for me with intrusive thoughts, worth a shot.
Sometimes fighting just makes it a circular slide for me,and by instead saying, 'Okay, obsessive thought, you get my full…

It's the best ironic watching. I'm watching it now on Netflix, and laughing like a lunatic every episode.

I love when she says that her sister's affair with her fiance was worse than seeing people ripped apart by lions and nearly being eaten herself.
Priorities!

It's better than Z Nation and Sharknado combined. Completely straight faced so-bad-it's-good television.
Highlights for me:
It's a scientific fact: once rats taste human blood, they crave it,
Brown bears are able to move through houses as silently as any slasher, and they apparently also have no odor.
LION TELEPATHY
Droppi…

As a director you have to put yourself in your movies, and I’m white and gay.

I mean, Andrew Dice Clay is getting another TV show for god's sake.
The "P.C. Police" are not a very effective constabulary.

Romance is probably the least of your sister's worries. Dating puts people in the best of mental health through the wringer, and it doesn't sound like she's anywhere near ready for that.
Talk to her psych(s), if she has them. I don't know what kind of outpatient program she's in, if any. They can guide you on how best…

The Greatest American Hero, Disney's Peter Pan, Disney's Robin Hood* - and the older brothers in Swiss Family Robinson were awfully shirtless, weren't they?
We had a box of Disney VHS tapes when I was a kid, can you tell?

Or at least a waiting period. There's no way to know what's important until it's had an impact. That takes time to filter down, and it has as much to do with cultural forces as critical and artistic ones.

I also want to point out that 'gay men objectify each other' just kind of proves the point about how men are socialized (dare I say, enculturated ) to view sex and the people they want to have it with. Not as human beings, but as objects of gratification. Gay men are men, and are raised in the same soup of toxic…

Which gay guys? The gay guys I know went running from 'gay culture' early. Like, hit the bars and hookup sites in their early 20's/late teens and ran away screaming like Kermit the Frog.
Sent one poor guy right back into the closet. It's the same bullshit gender policing wrapped up in a gay bow. I'm not saying it's…

I have a friend who subscribed to the Big Brother live feed for the same reason. I don't think it's any weirder or sadder than listening to talk radio or podcasts.
