Enh. Any wisdom I could share on the subject basically boils down to "Don't marry a woman when you're a gay guy trying desperately to convince yourself and everyone else that you're bi." I mean, it's more complicated than that obviously, but that's the basic story.

You need to offer to house sit for any/every single person you know who leaves town for more than 2 hours.

See, growing up in the rural midwest, the part that had me really squirming was when it looked like idiotking was gonna hit on the hot EMT. There is no possible way that would have gone well, even if the EMT himself didn't mind.

Oh, it's because the rest of the Western US still leaves their female babies out to die of exposure.

I was pretty sure there are slightly more women than men, but a quick google tells me that's true for just about all of north america and europe, but world population does in fact skew slightly toward the male.

It would make a pretty amazing live reading/storytelling piece exactly as it is.

Yeah see that doesn't even make sense. There may be more sperm than eggs in the world, but there are not more men than women. So unless your sperm are literally trying to date a woman's eggs, it seems pretty irrelevant.

So my wife and I tried swingers websites (looking for a bi guy to join us) and never had much luck with them. We finally got frustrated and tried a craigslist ad as a last resort. We wrote a reasonably long (3 or 4 paragraphs) ad being pretty specific about what we were looking for, both physically and what our…

Maybe he was going for the homophone? Which, I mean, bad joke but it is Dan.

Really? Cause I was hoping the exact opposite.

Thanks! I feel a bit odd asking, but if you can't ask practical strangers on the internet this kind of thing, who can you ask?

Dear idiotking,
I find myself recently single after being in a relationship for the past 15 years. While there are inherent downsides to this, I plan to take full advantage of the freedom to be a giant slut for a while. I'm also looking to make some new friends outside my ex and my mutual friend group. And while my…

It's almost like he only printed her advice so he could take up more space contradicting it and not have to answer a third question this week.

I'm a fan of the Astra Platinum blades. They're not quite as sharp as the Feather, but to me that's a good thing. Still quite sharp and keep an edge through several shaves but without so much of the "shit I just gashed my finger open" factor.

Marshall's or TJ Maxx can be great if you already know how to dress yourself, but it's so easy to go wrong there too. I wouldn't really suggest them for someone still trying to figure this stuff out.

Another thing that I don't think anyone has mentioned yet: Different stores tend to have clothes to fit different body shapes. So as others have said H&M is great - if you happen to have the right body shape for their stuff - but if you don't it won't work. Try going to several different stores and see how their stuff…

Speaking of stories, whatever happened to that epic coming out story you promised weeks ago?

I guess that depends what you mean by snug. But baggy is definitely not your friend.

And you don't have to use a beard trimmer as often. Depending on how long it is, I guess. I keep mine about 1/2" long and only need to trim once a week if that.

Perhaps she's just upset that they're all in Boston and she's in Seattle.
