There's something that so purely says "sophomore year dorm posters" about this that it's almost perfect.

To The Girls of Echo Park - m4w (El Ay)

Date: 2012-07-25, 3:02PM PDT
Reply to: bgv93-3162948✧✧✧@p✧✧✧.craigsl✧✧✧.o✧✧

I used to have crushes on arty girls, like those that are in abundance in Silverlake and Echo Park. Those girls with their slender, tomboyish figures. Until realizing that this subgroup I refer to as "indie kids" are not like the people I met in college at all. It is painful to sit in a coffeeshop and listen to these sorts of people as they continually spout out cliche hipster nonsense that they seem to think is intellectual thought, but isn't. It's like the entire generation that these late-20s, early-30s come from are completely emotionally detached, intellectually stunted, and politically and socially disengaged -- but they somehow remain completely self-absorbed. I mean, self-absorption was once solely the domain of the intellectual and artistic elite -- Einstein and Picasso, for instance -- but has now filtered down to those who don't even have a reason to be self-absorbed. Hell, with the seeming nonexistence of rational thought, pragmatism, emotional maturity, or any sense of the world outside, I'm not even convinced there is a self to be absorbed in.

After seeing places in this world where people live in tin shacks with no electricity or running water and literally eat the sun-baked gravel for survival of the barest degree, I find the lifestyle and values of this group of people reprehensible. And the fact that there are so many publications and facets of the media -- like the LA Weekly, for instance -- that seem to not only cater to this subgroup, but lionize and proselytize about the shitty music and faux-art that they produce must be sure sign of the impending downfall of the U.S., if not the Western world as a whole.

We here have been given everything, there is no excuse for ignorance and apathy. None. Take your shitty music with no balls, your mumblecore films and sub-Warhol pop art bullshit and go back to Oregon, Washington or Minnesota. And tell your hipster douche bag boyfriends to buy a razor, a comb, and some pants that didn't come off the girl's rack - you fucktards. I'll be laughing my ass off when you're working in the mines for your Chinese overlords. Thanks for pissing an entire generation away.

two weeks pass...

Are you going to be protesting at the Ecuadorian embassy alone?

Well what a coincidence, so am I.

I'm heading there friday evening and staying overnight the whole weekend leading up to Assange's statement on Sunday at 2pm. I don't have any camping equipment so my plan right now is to sleep on the pavement, but if you want to share what you have, I'll be infinitely grateful.

I'm just thinking this would be a great opportunity to get to know a like-minded person of the opposite sex and since I've just moved into London I don't know many people here yet so it'd be nice to meet you this weekend.

Your pic gets mine.

Matt DC, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:16 (eleven years ago) link

I can't even...

Matt DC, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:16 (eleven years ago) link

I refuse to believe there are any women in the world so short on sexual options that they would consider a meeting a trustafarian Julian Assange supporter off a casual sex website.

Matt DC, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:18 (eleven years ago) link

.. send a pic fast enough?

(xpost)

Mark G, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:20 (eleven years ago) link

It took me about 20 minutes to realise that ad was not "Are you a female Assange fan? I am too (both female and an Assange fan)" which reduced the creepiness level quite a lot, and in fact would be quite understandable (not wanting to be alone in a protest full of rape culture supporters) - but initially didn't notice and then was deeply perplexed by the "opposite sex" bit at the end.

Like "I am a woman and would like a woman to go with so I'm not alone" is unfortunately a reasonable request. :-(

Shepton Mullet (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:21 (eleven years ago) link

Not even unfortunate, it's totally reasonable.

As opposed to "you hate rape? Hey, so do I. Let's hookup.."

Mark G, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:23 (eleven years ago) link

Are there anti-Assange protestors outside the Ecaudorian embassy as well? Because otherwise that would be a very strange place for such a meeting.

Matt DC, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:25 (eleven years ago) link

It's unfortunate that women would feel uncomfortable going to a protest unaccompanied.

It's unfortunate that a bunch of Assange fanboys seem to be turning protesting spaces into "get out of rape free zones" but this is the kind of thing I don't feel comfortable discussing on the internet.

Shepton Mullet (White Chocolate Cheesecake), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:27 (eleven years ago) link

Wait, why are they protesting the Ecuadorians? Ecuador gave him asylum! Shouldn't they be protesting at the Swedish Embassy instead?

Troll (Chaki Little Bit Sklarer) (how's life), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:37 (eleven years ago) link

It depends what they are protesting.

Also, he is there.

Mark G, Friday, 17 August 2012 11:38 (eleven years ago) link

They're protesting against the police presence outside the embassy which stops him leaving it.

Temporarily Famous In The Czech Republic (ShariVari), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:40 (eleven years ago) link

Ok. Thanks for the clarification.

Troll (Chaki Little Bit Sklarer) (how's life), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:40 (eleven years ago) link

I wear tappout shirts punk (what of it punks?)
Date: 2012-08-27, 1:13PM PDT

I am representing my sport and also warning punks to back the fuck off when i am out having a good time I dont want to be messed with. I wont hesitate to get you in a kumora or a figure four or a ankle lock on the bar floor. I am ready to roll 24 7 365 punbks and that is why I wear tapout shirts so I am giving you fair and legal warning so I am not held liable for any brutal beat down or broken or dislocated body parts. I can not be sued if I wear a warning on my shirt. I expect all my students at my Karate school in Graham area to represent by eaither wearing school shirts with dragon logo or a tappout shirt. Now lets be done with this topic I am getting pissed again. Grand Master now meditates.

blackbelt in mma bitches (tap out pass out cry)
Date: 2012-08-27, 1:22PM PDT

I have a black belt in mma and not only wear a tapout shirt, hat with brim sideways I have my scary tribal tattoos to warn all you wannabes to stay the fuck away from me and my mma gang. I run a mma school and have to keep you fans at a distance just like famous actors or famous singers. We are alot alike with you fans always wanting to hang with us, get our autograghs and sometimes stalking us. We cant take chances. We have to put you wannabe fans in your place so you keep back and dont get tapped out. I have had to tap out several mma fans who could not contain themselves while drinking. I am always out in Lacey area after we train and we get messed with often so i wear tapout shirts. What of it? Step into my octogon bitches and you'll get the superman beatdown.

My name is Melissa and I am a interspecies telepathic animal communicator.
Telepathy is a three way conversation between myself, you and your animal friend. The only information I need to get a connection with your pet is a picture and their name so that I know who I am speaking with. Through this subtle communication questions can be answered and harmony restored in your life journey with your animal friend. Telepathy can bennefit in many situations like being able to communicate with animals who have passed on. Telepathy can be used as another tool under your belt for training issues by finding out why our pet is being resistant wether it is a pain issue or your animal friend is mis understanding what you are asking of them . but please keep in mind that Telepathy is not a cure all or Quick Fix for training it's self you still must apply proper training with your pet.
Also in some situations when a pet has become lost, or left home for any reason through telepathy they can show me images of land marks they see around them or things they may have passed by that you may recognise to be able to find them or guide them home again. But please keep in mind that I am not a GPS so I do not receive address's or street names..

If this lady is able to make money with this I might try to be an interspecies telepathic animal communicator on craigslist as well.
