I've lived in a New England bubble my entire life (except one year in the PacNW bubble) and I've known some conservative millenials they mostly fit in the following categories 1) dipshit Bush-era teenagers (includes my own libertarian phase) 2) members of military families 3) ancap bitcoiners or 4) weirdo college republicans (it was no secret that my college was overwhelmingly lib/leftist, so what few proud self-identified conservatives chose to go there anyway were just the oddest antisocial dorks) (like, the kind who wore dress shirts and sport coats to college lectures) (picture Ted Cruz at Princeton) That said, though, regarding thread discussion, there are definitely liberal conspiracy-theorists now (y'know, the everyone-is-a-Russian type) and they're pretty generally over 40

Its alot easier to fact check (and thus to know that you need to) when you spent your formative years stalking friends on facebook, or snap chatting people (god drat I'm old already), instead of waiting for your mom to get off the phone line so you could call someone.

I like the idea of cosmic horror that’s too lazy to go into caves I would read a book from the perspective of a monster that’s like “I wanna consume the flesh and sanity of humans, but like, only when they’re outside and easily accessible at night, yknow?”

maskenfreiheit posted:he thinks he's jim but really he's roy drat, was gonna say this. Also, I have plenty of conservative friends since I work in finance and meet a ton of them. The older ones are all terrible, but anyone under the age of 40 is usually pretty reasonable and not opposed to things like gay marriage or trans rights or healthcare reform (they'll draw the line at socialized, but they'll agree something needs to change). Haven't met any that actually like Trump. The most praise I've heard is "at least he isn't Hilary."

If he wanted, he could devour the man, but he would need to move. Instead, with a sigh, he withdraws his tendrils into the cave and reaches for an already open box of formerly frozen pizza rolls. “You’re a piece of poo poo” he whispers in an unspeakable tongue a few hours later “and you deserve this”. You would be driven mad if you could but hear the eldritch wails as he cried himself to sleep for another eon. christmas boots fucked around with this message at 23:44 on Feb 14, 2018 |

maskenfreiheit posted:he thinks he's jim but really he's FTFY The Office is one of my favorite shows but anyone should be worried if their significant other starts comparing the relationship to any fictitious one, especially if it leads to them irrationally getting jealous. This is as bad as saying "Our love is just like Edward and Bella". Besides, Jim and Pam's relationship is a little too perfect, even for tv. There is a beautiful love story at the heart of the show The Office and it isn't Jim and Pam. It's Dwight and Angela.

King of Foolians posted:Besides, Jim and Pam's relationship is a little too perfect, even for tv. They spent so long on the "will they or won't they" thing that by the time they actually got together everyone was too invested in the relationship to be able to handle any actual threats to it Cowardly writing IMO but they knew where their money came from quote:I am convinced that I am in hell and am not being allowed to die. I've been doing dangerous and unhealthy things for over a decade that you hear people dying from all the time, but yet I still wake up every morning. You would be disgusted how much I spend every week on alcohol, cocaine and pizza/chinese food. Every night I hope to not see the sun come up once again and start another miserable day, but I always do. If I am in hell, it does make sense because some of you guys's posts are excruciating to read and also why I have no friends. I think I died some time after the last time I can remember having a friend, which was about 10 years ago, and satan altered my memory to give me the false confidence that one day I'll day when in fact I won't. I actually IRL chuckled a little bit at the part where you threw shade at the thread, that was pretty good Anyway if this is serious see thread title but I doubt it is quote:Well here it is – my own contribution to the confession thread. You should probably end your marriage regardless of ICQ girl's status honestly. You don't sound happy in it and your wife knows. Just try to keep it amicable so you don't get hosed over -- if your ex isn't involved that might still be possible (although divorce is scary to me since it seems to turn normal people into spite monsters). And don't get hung up on this girl. Have you ever even met her in person? It was always a long shot and even more so than before now. As long as you keep carrying this torch you're never gonna be happy. I used to know a girl that kept getting long-distance Internet boyfriends instead of dating anyone that lived near her. I haven't talked to her for a while and as far as I know she's still doing it. It's an expensive hobby (if you actually visit each other) and you're never gonna really be able to "settle down", and honestly I think it's based in cowardice. Long-distance relationships only ever "work" if they have expiration dates. My wife and I were long-distance for a year for work reasons and I think it only worked because I did everything I could to move back as quickly as possible.

It's always funny to me seeing people dealing with the problems I thought were super meaningful and life-defining (like ICQ relationships) when I was like 15-16 but as a full-grown adult. You should know by now that when people interact solely on line, everything gets filtered and you never see much of the negative side of their personality because they have the benefit of being behind a screen where you can stop and think about what you type to the other person. Also you weren't "dating", you just talked on the phone a bunch. You were her friend. You aren't in some nicholas sparks movie, never say something as corny as "come back to me" to some girl that you only know over the phone who is dealing with something like that again.

I had something similar going on in my life at one point. I can understand pouring out your life to someone who has literally no connection whatsoever with anything actually going on in your personal life. It's nice. I mean, the woman I had knew more about me than anyone has ever had. Just don't ever think this will work in real life. The whole relationship is built on the foundation of anonymity and a disconnect from your actual lives. Think of her as a human diary and move on. Be there for your kids. Your kids are real. That's real.

I usually spend the night with him and tell my spouse that I'm staying with a friend and he always believes me. But this time I traveled to a nearby city and apparently there was a loving ELECTRONIC TOLL that I NEVER SAW. Because the invoice for it came in the mail today. There is in in black and white - the location, date and time that I traveled. gently caress.
