My confession is that I get really emotional if someone makes fun of me on the forums. I'll think about derogatory or belittling posts for hours, sometimes for days afterward. I can't help myself. However, I figured out a small way to spin it around in my favor: whenever i post something I think might get a negative reaction, I make an effort to use an obscure SAT-type word. That way, when I play my post over and over again in my head in the following days, I'll remember the word and add it to my vocabulary. yay me

quote:

My parents were both really bad people. They had my older sister while they were still in high school, basically pawned her off to my grandparents, and then proceeded to gently caress up again and have me in their late 20s. They didn't grow up at all in that time, just got jobs and a little bit of money. Growing up was pretty awful, and when I turned 18 I left home and have never looked back since. My mother died several years ago from cancer, but my dad is still kicking around wasting oxygen.

When I turned 12 years old, my parents had the one and only birthday party I ever had in my life. It was just the three of us, and we went out to TGI Friday's. I was happy - I didn't have much at all, so I appreciated even the smallest gestures of kindness. We ate and my parents had too much to drink. We left and my dad busted in to the case of "road beers" he kept in the back seat. My mom and dad both had one and toasted me. I was so used to road beers that I actually felt good about them seemingly having a good time. It was getting late, and we lived on a rural road. It had rained earlier in the evening, so there was a bit of fog around.

We took the highway exit and made our way back home. It was a deeply wooded area, no houses around, and no streetlights or anything but the moon and stars to light the night. Suddenly we hit something. My dad yelled out "Oh gently caress a deer!" and my mom screamed. They pulled over and we got out to look. It wasn't a deer.

It was a man in a black rain slicker carrying a gas can. Presumably he had broken down and was walking back to the nearest gas station. He was laying on the ground shaking, and I remember him wheezing as he breathed. I said I'd run to find a phone (this was the mid 90s and we were poor, so no car phone or cell phone) and my dad told me to stop. I remember the guy leaking blood and I was terrified he would die.

My dad poured a beer over the guy, then a second, then crushed the cans with the boot and put them right next to him. My mom pulled out the previous drunk road beers and crushed those cans as well. Then my dad grabbed the gas can and put it in the back of the car. Then we drove off. We never saw a broken down car but my dad ended up tossing the gas can in the woods a few miles from our house.

I cried but I didn't protest, I knew that would just get me beaten. I watched the news for the next week, and told myself that if there was a report of this guy being found dead or injured, I would call the police and let them know. It never happened so I never called. I think about him a lot. I also like to think I've done enough to make up for not calling the police, but I don't think I can ever live that down.

That second one is believable enough. If you're living in a shithole area with shithole parents, that could be possible.

What about the damage to the car?
What was the narrative? The guy on the side of the road in a raincoat sat there drinking beers about a mile from his car and got hit.

They'd do toxicology and find no booze in his system. There would be a murder investigation.

My boyfriend has recently gotten deep into conspiracy theories and it is probably going to break us up. He was a major Trump supporter for the past year or so, and started watching Alex Jones on youtube because of this. That was the start of the problem, and since then he has gotten progressively more paranoid with each passing week.

He believes that the world is run by a shadow government that is either controlled by Jewish people, aliens, or Catholics. Or perhaps all 3 or all 3 are the same thing. This one really bothers me because it's blatantly racist and I was raised Catholic.

He also believes the hacked emails from Clinton show that she worships Satan, sacrifices people to Satan, and is in league with the same shadow government.

More concerning is that he has started blaming "The Immigrants" for all of his problems. He believes that immigration needs to end and that every single refugee is a criminal, terrorist, or carrying a super virus designed to wipe out the US. I explained once that terrorists want you to have this mindset, that terrorism thrives on fear and distrust, and he called me a moron.

We are a gay couple and have faced a lot of hatred from people over the years. Many people I thought were my friends no longer talk to me since I came out of the closet, and I have felt the pain of this bigotry first hand. Seeing my boyfriend reflect this same hatred toward others is making me doubt the kind of man he is.

Also the reason this is anonymous instead of in E/N is I fear the same kind of "lol fag" backlash from these forums.

anon gay, so what

I think GBS is past laughing at gay people by now (especially E/N) but I'm prepared to be proven wrong

quote:

I am in my late 20s, have a good job, and am about to be married. I still loving love Dragonball.

I watched Dragonball Z Kai every Saturday night and am heartbroken that the Cell Saga is almost over. I watched Dragonabll Super subtitled online and love it, I'm anxiously awaiting the Goku vs Arale fight next week. I play the Dragonball Dokkan Battle game on my phone every night before bed.

When I go to the gym I have a carefully curated playlist of DB/DBZ battle songs to keep me pumped up and motivated. I also like to pretend I'm training for the Tenkaichi Budokai. When I get really exhausted at the gym I'll sometimes whisper "Kaio Ken times 10" to power myself back up. At work I like to watch big moments on youtube in my downtime. I have probably watched Gohan go Super Saiyan 2 at least 300 times in my life and it gets better every time.

I also write Dragonball Fan Fiction and play it out in my head as I fall asleep at night. I started this as a kid when I realized how lovely DBGT was, and this was a way to replace the canon in my head. Dragonball Super was a dream come true since it undoes GT, but I still have my fanfiction going on too. Tonight I think I'm gonna have Piccolo get possessed by a Majin.

My fiance knows I like the show but she doesn't know just how deep it goes. At our wedding I want to do the fusion dance to represent joining our lives together, but I don't think she will let it happen. I haven't brought it up yet.

When I go out for lunch today I'll probably pretend to do a Kamehameha or a Burning Attack in the parking lot. I do that kind of stuff most days.

You can do the fusion dance at the wedding, just do it during the reception instead of the ceremony and don't tell anyone what it is. Sneaking nerdy poo poo into your wedding in subtle ways is actually a lot of fun, my sister and brother-in-law had weighted-companion-cube-themed shotglasses as wedding favors (in 2011) and I came down the aisle to Downstream from the Braid soundtrack.

You guys, the point is that they didn't make a big thing of it, they just had shotglasses with what appeared to be a cute heart box design on them and a throwaway line about companions underneath, and Downstream is an objectively beautiful piece of chamber music :colbert:

I like nerd references to be easter eggs, meaning they're cool if you get them and unnoticeable if you don't. I agree that that picture of those nerds getting married in Gamestop while wearing Zelda costumes was cringey as gently caress, because they were doing it wrong

Eh, when I'm at the gym or at barre class or whatever and start to wimp out, I'll think to myself, "what would Goku do?" and push through the pain. I've admitted this to exactly one person in real life, because I suspected he would either find it funny or admit he does something similar (he's more obsessed with db than me), but instead he gave me a :stare: face so I don't share that anymore.
