You would think you would've "remembered" to throw that milk out, Huck. Don't worry, I just smacked myself in the nuts for that one.

― Bryan (Bryan), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 16:29 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm within 500 metres from that event right now yet i'm still at the office. :(

i love the royal george pub as well

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 16:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, I just noticed it yesterday. When I added a new carton to the collection (exp. date: Jan. 15). I was going to take it out to the garbage, but I didn't. I'm so lazy in the winter.
But I did eat cereal for breakfast today for the first in nearly two months! And I used the right milk!

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 16:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I've read 2 books in the last 5 years and they were 'Atomised' and 'Platform'

― dave q, Tuesday, 30 December 2003 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

take part in the 'I love books' book group dave.

you also read 'The Creep' by Jeffrey Frank (i came across yr post abt it while searching for somethign else yesterday).

being 24 and still living with yr parents is not that bad surely.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Sometimes it feels it.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I was living with my parents for a while when I was 24.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-two years ago)

and 23 and 22.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I essentially rent two rooms off them and occasionally join them for meals, so it's not that bad.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 18:04 (twenty-two years ago)

And they have just bought me a chair!

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 18:04 (twenty-two years ago)

I confess I confess!
I bought the Finding Nemo DVD

The colors are so pretty, and I love it when they are trying to speak whale.
I know, I am a freak.

― Orbit (Orbit), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 19:59 (twenty-two years ago)

For the past seven years, I've only read books that are about music. There's no joy in my life.

― may pang (maypang), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 20:19 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't stop re-reading the dirty parts of Henry Miller books.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

i cry at movies and music, but i dont cry when sad things in real-life happen

― todd swiss (eliti), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I ate a whole cheesecake. All by myself.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I refuse to see Super Troopers cuz my ex told me she liked it. It's weird, since I totally listen to albums and see movies she likes too, but for some damn reason I get all tense and edgy when friends ask if I've seen Super Troopers or invite me to.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:18 (twenty-two years ago)

I've never seen...nor particular cared to see..."the Rocky Horror Picture Show".

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:19 (twenty-two years ago)

I haven't done any serious job searching in weeks. I've read the Lou Reed 'Transformer' bio four times through, and I don't even like his solo career.

― Sean (Sean), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:20 (twenty-two years ago)

If I make a frozen pizza and I'm home alone, I invariably eat the whole thing.

― Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I EAT DUST AND I'M ALL RUN DOWN

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm on my way, I'm making it
I've got to make it show, yeah
so much larger than life
I'm going to watch it growing

the place where I come from is a small town
they think so small
they use small words
-but not me
I'm smarter than that
I worked it out
I've been stretching my mouth
to let those big words come right out

I've had enough, I'm getting out
to the city, the big big city
I'll be a big noise with all the big boys
there's so much stuff I will own
and I will pray to a big god
as I kneel in the big church

big time
I'm on my way-I'm making it
big time big time
I've got to make it show yeah
big time big time
so much larger than life
big time
I'm going to watch it growing
big time

my parties all have big names
and I greet them with the widest smile
tell them how my life is one big adventure
and always they're amazed
when I show them 'round my house, to my bed
I had it made like a mountain range
with a snow-white pillow for my big fat head
and my heaven will be a big heaven
and I will walk through the front door

big time
I'm on my way-I'm making it
big time big time
I've got to make it show-yeah
big time big time
so much larger than life
I'm going to watch it growing
big time big time
my car is getting bigger
big time
my house is getting bigger
big time
my eyes are getting bigger
big time
and my mouth
big time
my belly is getting bigger
big time
and my bank account
big time
look at my circumstance
big time
and the bulge in my big big big big big big big

you must be my long-lost brother!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:49 (twenty-two years ago)

i have been driving around in my unregistered unwarranted car for almost 2 years now, and just today got busted.

― donna (donna), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 22:47 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm so bored with books lately. It's frightening.

― Maria (Maria), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 22:49 (twenty-two years ago)

i am naked in the dark and there is no veil between me and the wheel of fire.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I have no driver's license.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:53 (twenty-two years ago)

If I make a frozen pizza and I'm home alone, I invariably eat the whole thing.

It's funny how doing this makes one feel like such a complete schlub.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, so my turn: I've not so much as kissed anyone since April 2001.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:59 (twenty-two years ago)

i cry at movies and music, but i dont cry when sad things in real-life happen

me, too.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't cry at anything.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I have also not seen any family member this xmas.

I have not spoken to or seen my grandparents since Easter.

I haven't mopped in two weeks.

I'm afraid of what lives at the back of my fridge.

I've never seen Titanic.

― Viva La Sam (thatgirl), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I've never seen any of the Godfather movies, nor LOTR.

― luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I not only can't drive, I'm scared of driving, and I'm 32.

I am also scared of balloons (in case they pop, dig?)

I have been known to go more than several days without bathing on the odd occasion.

I have never seen Rocky Horror or the Blues Bros films properly, and I've never seen any of the Aliens trilogy at all.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Eating a whole pizza or a whole pan of lasagna is a normal thing for me.

I like Aja (but not in that weird creepy way people imply).

― Carey (Carey), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 00:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I just found a baby mouse in my kitchen sink.

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:08 (twenty-two years ago)

(and if no one else had been in I'd have left it there too)

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:09 (twenty-two years ago)

I was wanking before and Andrew WK's "Ready to Die" started playing in my head and I thought "ANDREW WK IS THE ULTIMATE FORM OF MUSIC!"

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:16 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't remember if I ever was any good at sex, it's been so long.

Sometimes I realize I've gone 5 or 6 days without washing my hair.

― j.lu (j.lu), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't know if I'm any good at sex, but I like practicing.

I think I'm a pretty bad boyfriend. I don't know--I'm getting better but it never is quite enough.

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 03:39 (twenty-two years ago)

When I was in Italy in 1991 in the middle of a very hot summer I spent a month with only 3 pairs of pants, none of which got cleaned during that time.

― Markelby (Mark C), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 11:06 (twenty-two years ago)

i confess to thinking Peter Gabriel's 'Big Time' is a stupendously good record

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 11:10 (twenty-two years ago)

i find both Big Time and Sledgehammer painful to listen to

― H (Heruy), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 11:15 (twenty-two years ago)

i worry too much and cry WAY too much lately.

― nathalie (nathalie), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 12:32 (twenty-two years ago)

Too many of the above confessions apply to me too for me to be able to copy and post them all again. I am beyond help.

― silver girl, Wednesday, 31 December 2003 16:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I still listen to the Fixx.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 17:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think I like quitting smoking. Or maybe I do like quitting smoking, and that's why I always start up again, because I like the withdrawal. Am I sick or what?

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 17:09 (twenty-two years ago)

i can't swim.

I shaved off my pubes last night in a fit of pique.

― Bryan (Bryan), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 17:34 (twenty-two years ago)

I reached my peak last night in fit of pubes.

This thread has been locked due to the most perfect 1-2 combo ever posted to the forum.

two months pass...

I have just listened to the live CD of James' last gig at G-Mex and got goosebumps and shed a tear. Do not hate me. Pity, perhaps, but hatred is unpleasant and poisons your soul.

nine months pass...

I have "Eye Of The Tiger" on my iPod and sometimes, when I have it on random play and it comes on while I am at the gym, I will work out to it. Totally without irony.

― .adam (nordicskilla), Monday, 3 January 2005 21:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I like Van Hagar.

A lot, actually.

I can't swim. I won't drown, but I can't stand to put my head under water in a pool.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Monday, 3 January 2005 21:15 (twenty-one years ago)

my dog ran away on New Year's Eve when some local toughs started lighting firecrackers while she and I were playing catch in the park late at night. confession: i was only moderately upset that she might be gone for good after 11 years of my taking care of her freeloader ass.

today, two days later, I found her at the animal shelter. so it's a happy ending but I feel more than a little bit guilty about my reaction.

― tobo (tobo), Monday, 3 January 2005 21:18 (twenty-one years ago)

one year passes...

I just read this entire thread, to try to feel better about myself, or something.

I've almost obsessively lurked these boards since last summer, (I've posted only a few times).

I refuse to grow up.

I'm, essentially, a recluse (I don't like labels). I refuse to leave the house for months on end. When I do have to leave, I feel disgusted the moment I'm back home and need a shower right away.

― andy dale (andy dale), Saturday, 25 March 2006 08:43 (twenty years ago)

I am 30 and my sexual abilty is unrivaled.

― Mr Jones (Mr Jones), Saturday, 25 March 2006 09:18 (twenty years ago)

I am genuinely terrible at all sports, and will not even play a friendly game of volleyball, for fear of pissing people off.

If I'm dancing in a club, I am compelled to sing along with songs I know all the words to. And I know the words to a lot of songs.

I am outwardly quite friendly, and usually make good friends wherever I go. But I have a misanthropic streak a mile wide, and I worry about becoming a lonely, crotchety, reclusive old man. People disappoint me with their greed and their stupidity.

I get seasonal depression in the winter time, and it's been bad enough for me to think about doing myself in.

I am so ambivalent about both of my parents that I could happily never speak to either one of them again.

I think I'm addicted to the internet.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Saturday, 25 March 2006 16:56 (twenty years ago)

I was once in a proto-Emo band called Soul Patch.

― Wrinklepaws, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:10 (nineteen years ago)

I am a world class procrastinator.

I have no idea how to drive a car with a stick shift. I'm also a bit phobic about driving in unfamiliar places, especially cities.

I have watched General Hospital since I was in grade school and still enjoy some of it.

― Sara R-C, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

seeing threads like this that are years old I always have an initial pang of fear. oh god, did i confess something here that is going to haunt me? (no, thankfully)

― modestmickey, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:53 (nineteen years ago)

I am unable to follow even simple plots in the movies.

It's not your fault! Movies just invariably suck at telling stories!

― nabisco, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:55 (nineteen years ago)

Well, it's not too late! ;)

― Sara R-C, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:56 (nineteen years ago)

i... own 2 decemberists cd's!

― modestmickey, Friday, 2 March 2007 22:04 (nineteen years ago)

See? Now that wasn't so bad, was it?

― Sara R-C, Friday, 2 March 2007 22:08 (nineteen years ago)

I am so pessimistic it annoys people, it's easier and seems more rational to imagine futures full of suffering than happiness.

― Maria, Saturday, 3 March 2007 18:51 (nineteen years ago)

At least that way you're prepared for the worst.

― Laurel, Saturday, 3 March 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

i wish i could sing like geddy lee

― rrrobyn, Saturday, 3 March 2007 20:50 (nineteen years ago)

I love deeply questionable Britpop from the '90s: Geneva, Echobelly, the Long Pigs, the Bluetones, Dubstar, etc.

― Laurel, Saturday, 3 March 2007 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

i have a few hundred cd singles you might like.. cheap

1. I have 12 Alice Cooper CDs
2. I bought some skinny jeans, and think they are okay!
3. I hardly ate any fruit for the first 30 years of my life, but now I like raspberries.

― jel --, Sunday, 4 March 2007 11:00 (nineteen years ago)

> I EAT DUST AND I'M ALL RUN DOWN

sounds like Gary Numan, specifically ME from Pleasure Principle (was listening to it this morning as it happens)

I drank too much last night and threw up twice today. I still feel sick. And embarrassed that my roommates know.

― Maria, Sunday, 4 March 2007 19:05 (nineteen years ago)

six years pass...

Every few minutes or so when I am internet surfing at work I get this bad, guilty "omg I am internet surfing at work!" feeling even though no one in two years has ever given a fuck if I surf the internet at work. Right now, I am only even in the office because I'm waiting for someone to bring back my car (everyone else is gone early for Labor Day Weekend) and I still get the feeling every few minutes.

― #fomo that's the motto (Hurting 2), Friday, 30 August 2013 19:42 (twelve years ago)

five months pass...

Last night I had a rare night out to hang out with some friends in a bar -- it's actually a book club that meets in a bar. My wife and daughter go to sleep early, and although I figured I'd be home by 10pm or so, I decided to stay a little later and have an extra round with a few of the people who stayed. I was a little drunk by the time I walked to the subway. I was also hungry but there was nothing to eat between the bar and the train, and also my phone died on the train, which was my only source of reading material, and it was a long ride home. So I decided to get off the Subway at Broadway-Lafayette, not really remembering what was around there. Well, nothing is around there in terms of purchasing food or reading material late on a Wednesday night, so I just walked for a while, in the freezing cold, until I came to an area with more stuff. I bought a Harpers magazine for the first time in a long time and picked up the Brooklyn Rail. Then I went to one of those shitty Ray's-type pizza places and sat and ate a slice and read, and then went to the nearest subway and made my way home. I got home around 2am, which is pretty late for me these days. It's a very banal story, really, but it felt very strange the way I had the impulse to do this thing and yet the product of my impulse was extremely boring.

― Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Thursday, 13 February 2014 21:03 (twelve years ago)

two weeks pass...

I've only listened to ≈ 10 jazz albums in my life, and 1 of them is a ~dark jazz~ album.

I moved to a new town/state in June 2013, but I still occasionally check out books and DVDs from my old town's library.

I first read Tolkien at the age of 25.

I didn't really understand how traffic lights worked until about a year ago.

I've never heard an Aerosmith album or an "underrated aerosmith" album in my life.

― his eye is on the sbarro (unregistered), Wednesday, 5 March 2014 05:58 (twelve years ago)

I stopped going to synagogue the week after I got my Bar Mitzvah. The rabbi stopped me in the street one day, got out of his car, and threatened to take it back off me! Can you revoke a Bar Mitzvah??

to belatedly answer the original poster's question, no one, including your rabbi, can revoke your bar mitzvah. nor can he award you a bar mitzvah. all he can do is lead the service at which your bar mitzvah is publicly acknowledged, which, technically speaking, is all that happens on that day. so if you've been avoiding him, you can stop.
