Should I go fishing or get a friend to hang around? Celebrated GAY Summer 2012

now I just need someone to bring them to my apartment. Pretty soon I will feel like buying a cane.

It's actually fun., I think, lower case. I saw them play a slick, pre-fame set in London in 2010, it was very slick and earnest and I distinctly thought "this band ain't going nowhere but back to America".

Poor precognition is par for the course for me, though, saw Nickelback in 2000 play to an empty bar in Toronto and thought "nope"

haha

Right side of my ass occasionally twingeing on me in excruciating fashion. BEST SUMMER EVER

^^^ fall thread title

Morbs, when do you get the results?

3 'business days'

The "roof" is lowered often, Morbs, so you can enjoy Miami humidity properly.

I'd love to hit a ball game with you, sarge, and lex.

well my travel fund is likely depleted for the calendar year. good luck getting us all there at the same time.

Win the powerball.

if I have a grave disease, of course, I am fucking off to Europe.

"It stirs emotion."
"Girls."

killin me

KILLIN me

Need to mash that up with Beyonce's "Run the World."

ahhhhahahahahahahahaha

God, I wish I was unemployed and had time to work on that.

No, you don't!

"rose, play or DIE"

"So is inter-uterine."

"Girls."

rockists and Golden Girls alike, you're welcome in Miami. Let's hit the beach.

:D

omg that's right i always forget ur a rockist

but u know what, just to get this out there, i think that pop music -- it may masquerade as vapid, when a lot of it is really just a reflection of the dichotomy btw intense emotion and superficiality present in all of us. and as music in general often suggests, this tension is heightened by sexuality, which attempts to bridge the profound with the physical.

I didn't know I had a reputation as a rockist. Anyway, to the extent I ever was rockist, I'm now a recovering rockist. I have rockist impulses/instincts, but I'm smart and lazy enough to not get that serious about them. And your statement is pretty OTM.

well i'm not sure if you have a rep but i just know from convos wit u that this is more or less a stance u have taken

glad to know the conversation is open!

umm please remind me on a weekly basis not to meet up with someone unless they show me 5 pictures first.

aw hell no

you are not an advocate of exchanging pix? i'm a firm believer, i dunno how i forget sometimes.

I'm a believer in firm.

me too!

i mean, for dates it's different, but for "fun", it is necessary for me to swap a bunch of images. i don't want anyone to be disappointed, and a surprising number of guys misrepresent. i border on misrepresentation in the opposite direction sometimes and undersell, so as to leave room for a happy surprise. but yeah if we're going to be getting that close, i would like to see all there is to see upfront.

Ew.

i don't want anyone to be disappointed, and a surprising number of guys misrepresent

This is interesting! In thirteen years of internet hookups I've never gotten a grotesque misrepresentation. "Grotesque" because just about every time the guy has said "lol my hair's shorter" or "I've got an earring now."

Really, ew?? I find this to be very standard with most people I talk to on these forums. At least like a few different face/undies pics. the other stuff is conversation specific.

Ew @ Internet hooking up.

I thought you were "ew @ hooking up"

Yeah, but not as much.

It's about time somebody created a Rolling Asexuality thread.

Like, for one if those two, I would be grossly underrepresenting if I didn't say I'm perfect for people who want to be puked on.

xpost I think there is one! Convo is predictably academic.

haha surm, that's a hell-no to misrepresenting yourself. i mean, i can understand wanting to put your best face forward to help close the sale, nobody likes to be rejected on the basis of looks, but if you're negotiating a hookup then who do you think you're fooling?

ohh ok awesome. lol.

i mean don't get me wrong, i love meeting up for coffee first too, or drinks or whatever. there's a time and a place.

in this day & age there is no excuse for old pics

LOL, all the asexuality threads actually die about as fast as ... well, you know:

Asexuality
Asexuality - C/D?!

Well, except this one which is mostly mockery:

asexual pride movement

i hope some of you new york gays are going to this (it's less steep than most other academic conferences i've been to):

web hookups have saved me the cost of so many pointless dinners.

my old pics actually look older than i do.

surm, room for MYSTERY must be left. Like Jell-O.

that's so funny, i thought you were quoting me, cuz i was going to say the same thing! i love mystery! really. at the right time.

Met up with Alex in Montreal a couple nights ago, it was lots of fun. I came from a mojito party and then was bought cocktails by a generous friend. We got ~wasted~, well, I was wasted at any rate, like that twice a year kind of wasted where you wander round the house the next day feeling confused by the placement of objects. We semi-successfully brainstormed possible gay rap nights to compete with Toronto's "Big Primpin'" (Me: Only built for Cuban Pinx; them: Late Penetration). Alex in MTL is highly recommended for irl hangs.

Agreed. Met Alex all too briefly a couple months back.

That makes two of you I've met IRL though I don't expect Owen to remember me.

I feel like I've met all of you at some point

I've met one of you ... twice.

What's more interesting is to talk abt ppl we have known
