It reads like fiction because he waited so long to drop that fact on us, but at least it was fun to read. Anyway it's clearly weird and you know it otherwise you wouldn't bring it up even without the blood component, but as long as you are serious about your committment to it only being a one time thing and you won't drink together again, it's fine to just laugh it off. But the way you talk you clearly want more and are going to pursue it until you either succeed and ruin her marriage or push her away. Just find someone else to gently caress that isn't your married cousin. Childhood bonds aren't some sacred thing anyway, they are mostly based on whether you can play outside with them or have cool video games, you can find much deeper connections in your adult life.

Maybe it's because I'm Italian and Spanish, but 2nd cousins are basically just 1st cousins in my family. I stood up in my 3rd cousin's wedding. I'm sure it's just a cultural/family thing, but it's super weird to me that the thought would even be there. Either way, good confession.

If y'all can't keep it in your pants, you can at least keep it in the family. In Korea since they have like four family names, one of the requirements to getting married is genealogical proof that you're a minimum of several generations unrelated. I think six?

About ~250k people in the entire country. They are also very far from everyone else, and live in a climate which is not exactly calling for an influx of immigrants.

Oh yes, and also patronymic names ensures that you have no loving idea if you are related to someone, besides your immediate family and close relatives.

as i recall from the article about the app, it is just part of meeting someone to compare families and make sure you aren't too closely related.

quote:Job Goon again again. You're probably wondering why I'm confessing again even though I've gotten a job. Just want to rant about stuff for a few tangents. Reminder I've been at this job for over a month now. Doesn't work for everyone I guess v  vAnyway "you sound depressed, see thread title" is kind of the most cliched response I have, but, you should probably do that. You're self-sufficient now and that's cool and a big start but it's not a magic fix-all-your-problems bullet. If I were you I'd try to develop a hobby, since you seem to have a lot of anxiety about talking about your interests (those being video games and memes). Honestly, just branching out into reading a dang book every once in a while would be a good start. Talking about books makes you seem smart and cultured (depending on the book I guess). (disclaimer: am super stoned; preceding post might not make sense)

It's probably a good idea not to have intercourse with someone whose lineage you can trace to your own. I don't think it's too weird to be attracted to a second cousin though, it's understandable if you interact with them frequently, especially at a newly pubescent age. Then again, I barely have any contact with my 1st cousins, let alone my 2nd so that might color my opinion. Actually now that I think about it, I do have a pretty hot cousin. She has a nice butt.... and a cute nose. hell I'd go for it, why not, yolo as the kids say. Maybe get a little drunk first

Quick followup from jobgoonquote:Ack job goon again just want to clarify before people dunk on my stupid rear end. When I meant an interest in "memes" I meant I like to contribute to SA photoshop threads and stuff. If some guy you knew said "Hey look at this funny picture of Garfield 9/11 I made" what the hell would you think of him? Not stuff you want to be sharing imho. Please be nice to me. never ever tell anyone you are a goon quote:I apologize if this is a little incoherent. It literally just happened and I’m still really shaken up. What the hey Are red states just really fuckin' weird or something because I can't imagine someone being fired from their job for using the wrong restroom quote:I sent in a confession a long time ago expressing my desire to join a cult to make friends and get away from normal life. After a lot of research, I decided to join The Family International, originally known as The Children of God. I traded some emails with a local member who convinced me it was a good fit. I am a devout Christian and so are they, but with a different interpretation of a lot of the Bible that really sounded right to me in my mind. So I sent in my application to join and quickly got approved. lol "I'm thinking of leaving my cult, they haven't threatened me at all" extremely low-effort cult

Why the hell would you answer the store manager's question about who you were? Just either deny it or at least claim it was a mistake and tell the manager to gently caress off, you didn't commit a crime and he can't detain you, just leave. I think you got fired more for proving you don't know how to handle a conflict situation than upsetting some random lady taking a poo poo. What was the rush anyway? If all you had to do was piss you could have just done that in the urinal and saved your swamp rear end wiping or whatever the hell for when the guy is done making GBS threads. e: also that cult from a quick googling sounds like a pedophile cult so maybe you're just too old for them to be interested, cult goon. yeah I eat ass fucked around with this message at 15:49 on May 14, 2018 |

Ack job goon again FYI a therapist isn't really a shrink, it's just someone you pay to be your friend basically and listen and hopefully give some good feedback. Like when I was in highschool I saw one about the constant anxiety attacks I was having and he taught me how to meditate. poo poo like that... Practical.

Job goon, I'm sorry but it sounds like there's more to the story. Getting fired from using the woman's restroom at another store? Also, I don't want to take things here but this will be the fourth job this year. Something seems off.soy posted:Ack job goon again FYI a therapist isn't really a shrink, it's just someone you pay to be your friend basically and listen and hopefully give some good feedback. Pretty much. They aren't really how TV protrays them. They are basically professional advice givers.

Why is cult goon not going for Scientology? It sounds like a no brainer if what you’re after is getting indoctrinated into some bullshit cult that wants total control over your life and will hold a permanent grudge if you ever try to ditch them. That or the Mormon church, I guess.

Doesn't it cost way more than just "a few hundred dollars" to rank up in that one though? Sounds like he's looking for a budget cult. Also most mormons aren't super culty, it's the FLDS ones that give them that reputation.

Oh no, once you're in, you're in for life, they'll send your local bishop around to your house about once a year to double check if you're still interested. Dude looking for a cult, mormonism is for you. Join a singles ward, find yourself a plain looking 25 year old never been kissed woman, pop out some kids, and never have to speak with any non-mormons again.

I know saying "being detained" triggers people to thinking I'm some sovereign citizen thing, but I meant it in the sense that you don't have to answer a store manager's questions. You don't have to say "am i being detained?" because you already know you aren't, they have no authority over you. If you just leave and ignore the shouting employee without giving them any identification information, literally nothing bad can happen to you. The goon would have had his job if he hadn't given the store manager the fuel to screw him over and had just kept his mouth shut and pretended the trip went off without a hitch.

His main problem was poor crisis management but that should not get you fired from a lovely retail job Like, telling either manager "sorry if she's freaked out, I was just using that room because someone was taking forever in the men's room" would probably limit the consequences to an eyeroll and probation, but he didn't do that either time
