Also, an ex-gf of mine went down on him once, so he isn't all the way gay, obviously.

e: I realise that comes across like whoever has that standup bit about people like David Bowie and poo poo sleeping with dudes because they've already hosed all the females and now they're just conquering something else. Not the intention at all. This happened after an interview for a magazine, so I guess it would make for a really good beard for him?

For the past 15 years, I've been having an affair with my best friend's wife.  They have three children and two of them I'm sure is mine and she agrees.  She is really good in bed and probably the best sex I've ever had was when I was with her.  Well, she is pregnant with another child and it is likely mine.  The timing doesn't even come close to working because my best friend was on a business trip for several weeks when she would have conceived.

My best friend, a few other friends, and myself went out drinking one night and he got trashed.  He began to slur "I know it was you" over and over again.  I pretended that I couldn't hear him.  A few weeks later our families were grilling out and at the end of the night he pulled me to the side and said that if I ever step foot on his property again, he was going to kill me.  I laughed it off and he said that he did the math and there was no way he would have been able to knock his wife up.  I told him that I had no idea what he was talking about but that we could talk about it some other time.

I had sex with his wife some time afterwards and she filmed it without telling me.  She gave him a copy and told him he was getting kicked out of the house.  He gave a copy to my ex-wife who then ran to the lawyers to try to get sole custody of my children.  My (former) best friend's wife wants me to move into her house and get married after she finalizes the divorce.  When I wasn't enthusiastic, she got angry and started spreading lies about me.

I'm screwed.

Honestly dude if you've been at this for 15 years I think you kinda deserve whatever comes next :shrug:

Spaceship goon: When some of us saw Lowtax in Chicago and brought this up he said he would draw us a spaceship right then. No one had any writing utensils so someone found some dental floss (I don't know why we couldn't find a pencil but someone had dental floss on them) and he Piccassoed a spaceship on someone with the dental floss. When I'm not phone posting I'll post the pictures.

Yeah that's the hosed up part for me. My best friend is like a brother to me, his girls have never and will never even register to me as anything but that, his girl, which automatically prevents any attraction. If you seriously even consider your best friend's wife a possible lay then there is something really wrong with you and your concept of friendship.

When I was a teenager, I was an awkward goon, especially around girls. So my parents set me up on a date with my former babysitter. At the end of the date, she took me to her apartment and took my virginity. Turns out my parents paid her to do that. I was 17 and she was 23. When I confronted my parents, they got angry and told me that they didn't want their only son to be a loser and then they proceeded to box up my video games and threw them in the trash. They said I should be dating girls instead. The day I turned 18, I got the gently caress out of their and haven't talked to them since (I'm 33 now). The only reason why I thought of it now is that the babysitter was on my Facebook recommended list of people to add as a friend and saw that she has a normal middle class life with three children. My parents are both dead.

I'm having some trouble with the idea that they thought you losing your virginity to someone your parents paid to do it is the kind of thing that would make you feel like less of a loser, but I guess some people are broken enough for that. Glad both you and she have moved on :)

quote:

I'm close to 40, been working the same job for over 15 years in a small shop doing professional-type things. We're all a pretty close knit group with an age range of mid 20s-50s. We all have dinner a couple times a month, have drinks, know each other's families, etc. This has been a really good deal and I've been very happy there.

We just hired a new guy, his first job out of college, and was assured he is reasonably talented. His first day, we all go to lunch together, and within the first five minutes after we're seated he informs all of us he's a Brony and he does not. shut. the. gently caress. up. Like, I'm hearing about Brony cons and how he's good friends with the guy who organized a Brony con and this one time at his favorite Brony con and poo poo while I'm trying to not simultaneously cringe and laugh while eating. I'm sitting there feeling totally disoriented about how anyone could voice words like that out loud let alone to people he's going to be working with outside a therapist's office. Everyone else is just kind of playing along if not gently trying to change the subject.

Frankly this guy has the worst habit of just constantly running his mouth and a demonstrated lack of sense regarding social hierarchy and awareness. It's making me wonder what the gently caress I'm going to do short of excluding him from outside-of-work social stuff. To me that is decidedly mean and out of character for both me and everyone else I work with, but I can't bear the thought of subjecting my wife to this guy or having him even near my kids it's that bad. I'm mortified for our reputation when he eventually needs to meet with a client and he hands them a complementary loving Rainbow Dash figurine whilst espousing the virtues of friendship and trust through song. Everyone agrees he's a bit out there, but it appears like I'm the only one seeing a genuine mistake and problem with this guy.

This is loving up my good thing.

Maybe you could talk to him yourself? :shrug:

like, you don't have to be too hostile or he'll just get spiteful, but you could probably suggest gently that maybe talking this much about your interests to people who do not share them is not socially the best idea (which is true)

First goon, while what they did was pretty gross/weird (also illegal), I don't see why that is "sever as soon as I'm 18" level. As hosed up as it was they were trying to help you, although if they had done the video game thing earlier maybe they wouldn't have had to pay someone to be your hooker.

Second goon, he'll probably run out of stories eventually. If he starts recycling them just gently remind him he already told you that. Don't escalate things unless you want to risk your job for a chance at having more enjoyable conversations at work. The being around your kids comment is a pretty big overreaction too, depending on how you mean. If you mean you're worried they'll start watching the show - who cares? They are kids, they are the intended audience. If you are trying to imply he's a pedophile, that is pretty unwarranted though if the only concerning thing about him is what show he watches.

#JustBronyProblems

We had a guy at our office who, thank god, wasn't into anything like My Little Pony, but had the same problem with fitting in. He could not compute that the circle of yes-persons he had delicately cultivated his entire life were not representative of the population at large, and that they were really just other socially-awkward stand-ins for his social pact of unconditional acceptance. Everyone thought he was annoying, everyone thought his hobbies and personal life were stupid and uninteresting, no one could stand him, but try as we might to explain it, it never got through to him - its like he was living in a space helmet where he could only hear himself talk, and the rest of the world sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher.

I'm loving blunt, ok? I did not mince words with this guy - "Dude, you need to listen to people, and reign in this weird behavior. Its not endearing, its annoying. You're not listening to what our bosses are telling you, you're just cherry-picking and twisting things so you hear what you want to hear." It never got through to him.

Eventually you'll find out that Brony Man's failure to relate to people is not just a by-product of his stunted social skills, but in fact is a lack of ability to interact with the world at large. His work product and office complexion will suffer for it, he'll fail to take instruction and learn correctly, and he'll get canned.

obviously you guys would understand the details but sometimes being too accommodating of wacky others can sink the goddamn ship. There's no loving way I would hire a brony. I'll never have kids but I wouldn't want this kinda guy around them either.

like is he a brony-brony, or just a brony? The fact he never shuts the gently caress up about it is a pretty big red flag for me.

I mean, the whole goddamn thing is a red flag. It's a show for little kids. Apparently you have a semi professional job.

Fandoms are generally insufferable, but when they're going so far as to identify themselves to others in public by the name they've made up for themselves they're basically irredeemable

like, there's "I watch Dr Who sometimes", that's bad enough, but then there's "I'd just like everyone at my new employee orientation to know that I am a Whovian and these are my favorite ships and I'd like everyone to know about some Internet drama I was in on the message-boards last night and here is a picture of me dressed up as the sixty-seventh Doctor in my living room" where you start to wonder whether you should call the dang cops

Why not bring the Brony stuff up to management? If you have and they don't see a problem with it, and everyone else doesn't have a problem with it, then maybe it's just something you're gonna have to deal with. And by "deal with" I mean just deal with him as little as possible and don't invite him out to after work stuff. It's OK for you not to like someone you work with.
