WINNER, BITCHES!

Three years ago a Chinese startup company started to contacting
me because they wanted to buy my domain name. Thing is, I wasn't
selling it. They got my info from the public domain registry.
I got my domain name more than 15 years ago. It's basically
<myhispanicnickname>.com. It apparently meant something
important in Chinese so that's why they wanted it. I ignored them
for two years, and then I flat out told them to stop bugging me,
thinking it could be a scam. They kept raising their offer,
and finally I ended up selling it through an escrow service for
$100,000.00. I have only told a handful of friends and family,
but I don't anybody else to know lest they come asking for money :-)

The fetish train finally comes to an end.

Since highschool I've had a fainting/unconscious fetish. Never acted on it but hearing stories or reading books with someone knocked out was very alluring to me. Out of curiosity I did look up fake setup vids but they were corny and stunk.

But one day I brought my girlfriend of 2+ years (who had no idea about this fetish), to the doctor. Just some routine stuff, and they took a sample of her blood as the last thing. As we were leaving she said she wanted to sit down again, sure no problem. She leans on my shoulder, being cute as always. Then all of a sudden she slumps down and makes gurgling noises.

She fainted in front of me and had I and a nearby nurse put her in the recovery position, mostly so she won't choke on any vomit.

I lost my fetish that day. Fainting just isn't as kinky when think a fainting person you love might choke on their vomit.

Hell of a wake up call. I hope she was okay.
 
I need to find a sequence of English words that mean something significant in Chinese, then register it as a domain. Then just and wait for the offers to roll in.
 
Trainwreck Guy back with an update:

First off the asshole licking thing was a joke (it did happen though), I figured most of the thread would get that lol.

I'm 21 now and she's 24.

To the poster who says using drugs=/=cheating I agree, she can pull the most batshit stuff sometimes. She's had a fucked up life though to be fair. Her Mexican side of the family covered up her years sexual abuse from her cousin so he wouldn't go to jail

She took a pregnancy test and it showed positive, but she said she's going to wait to see if she gets her period on like the 7th. I honestly don't want a child, I would like to dodge this bullet.

Honestly I guess I'm afraid to let her go. I've known her for a large portion of my life and would feel like I've wasted so much of my time. Then again I would waste more years if I stuck around in a shitty relationship, huh?

As for what I'm going to do, she wants me to move back in with her by the end of the week, I seriously don't want to so her and I are going to have to have a talk about it.

Regarding the poster about me "buying these childish claims that only he means anything," they aren't bullshit. She might be crazy but she isn't lying. She's done so much shit for me she wouldn't do for anyone else. That is until I did shit that she considered hurtful. She use to be sweet and caring and giving her all until recently.

I want things to be better but I don't know what to do at this point other than to just drop and roll the fuck out.

STOP. DROP. ROLL OUT.
 
Compared to the rest of this thread my confession is positively tame but feel that it would be good to get this off my chest . I am not even sure what to call my "odd" attraction but I am sexually attracted to Androgynous individuals . I like crossdressers and transexuals and one day I would like to date someone like that. The problem I have is that this year has proven to me that if I did find the right one ( and chances are pretty slim as I am a dateless 27 year old male virgin) that my family and friends would never approve . I was watching a special on the discovery health about transexuals and my mother walked in and blurted out "how could someone date something like that?" . After Catlyn Jenner came out of the closet I was shocked to see how transphobic my friends really were. Even my gay liberal friends where not above it. It is just disheartening to know that your idea of sexy is revolting to most other people.

There's nothing odd about that, man. You like what you like and it's an adult, consensual relationship that you could potentially engage in.

But it is disheartening to see that kind of attitude, especially among people who have experienced discrimination themselves.

Don't worry about what other people think, as hard as that might be. You like what you like.

Now in terms of language, I may have made an error, but we all have our preferences. Date who you want to, whoever you find sexy. Why not.

Be happy for yourself and be in a relationship with whomever you want to be with. Don't stop pursuing someone because of your narrow minded friends or family. You never know how important they could turn out to be to you.

Confessor, besides the heart wanting whatever it wants, you shouldn't worry about what others feel about it. If they truly care for you, they will become more tolerant and accept whatever or whomever it is that makes you happy.

If they don't, fuck them. You can't and should not be living a life others expect of you.
 
Didn't that std confessor guy make a thread here a few months ago? It sounds awfully similar to a thread we had.... DetectiveGAF or nah?

This year has been crazy for confessions. Let's see these last confessions NTGYK (whenever you can post them).

You have to be extra sensitive in situations like this. I'm not talking about with your family, but the target of your interest. Society ostracizes them and also outnumbers them, so it's hard enough for them to feel normal. If you treat them like a special curiosity, rather than like a person, then from their perspective you're not really any better than everyone else who won't treat them like a person.

By all means, continue to find androgynous and transgender people attractive. Just don't let that be the only thing about them you find attractive. Value them as a person first.
 
I've been following the Indivisible Indiegogo thread like a hawk for the past month hoping it fails. For anyone who doesn't know, basically the Skullgirls devs are making some shitty metroidvania game and it's barely going to get enough money. They almost failed the campaign but IndieGoGo let them do an extension, so now it looks like they'll make it.

I wish I could just support the game. I wish I thought it was good. There's a free demo to play so you can see for yourself just how mediocre it actually is. See, I liked Skullgirls fine, and there's nothing wrong with wanting to see other skin colors in games, but I just don't think this game will be good enough to bear that banner proudly.

So I've been hoping it would fail. I've been eagerly doing the math and watching the trickle of donations with an evil grin on my face. SEE! See, your game isn't good enough. All these dorks rallying behind your cause and dropping several hundred dollars on it are wrong. This game doesn't need to be made. There's not a market for it. See!

I believe in the free market. I believe people should be able to make whatever they want and sell it to whoever will buy it. I don't believe certain things should be made just because progressive socialists have prescribed it. I underestimated the market for this game and I feel like shit. This crow tastes bitter.

I don't know what Skullgirls is. That said, enjoy the crow.
 
Forget it, I'm dropping it early. Blank Verse Confession. Might be the last one of the night, I'm not sure. Which means tomorrow is gonna be a big drop.

GAF, I have to confess something.
I kind of confessed it last year, but only somewhat.

When I was 28, I had sex with an 18-year-old.
I was her first.
It was amazing.

Yeah, great, right?
The only problem was that I was married.
Obviously, not to her.

I continued to have sex with her for 2 years.
It was the most amazing thing ever.
She was the most amazing person ever.
It felt like we were made for each other.

I would have left my wife for her.
I was going to.
But I didn't do so quickly enough.
Obviously. 2 years is far too long to expect anyone to wait.
She didn't give me any notice or warning before breaking up with me.

And so now I'm left knowing that I could have been with the most amazing person in the world.
But I blew it.
I messed it all up.

I'm still with my wife.
She doesn't know.
She suspects. She probably does know.
But living like this is worse torture than anything possible anyway.

It's been years since I've talked with her, and I still can't forget her.
I never felt like that with anyone else before.
I never thought I could feel like that with anyone else.
And I know that I never will again.

I can't even live with myself anymore.
Knowing what I could have had.
Knowing what I had, and letting it slip away. And that I can never have that again.

This is still leaving out a whole bunch of the story.
But this is all I could handle typing.
I tried last year, and I couldn't.
I almost didn't this year at all.

I don't expect any sympathy.
I don't expect anyone to look on this positively.
I expect everyone to think I'm a worthless piece of shit.
Because I am.
I still love her.
But I will never see her or talk to her again.

I'm a piece of shit.
I'm worthless.
I know that I am.

Jesus fuck what a horrible fucking individual. You want it to fail because you think it isn't good enough to try and do minorities right?

Fuck you asshole. The developers have been pouring their souls into the title and if it fails that's IT for them and they have to break off the company. No seriously, go fuck yourself.


Also this fits some people in the indiegogo thread who are basically concern trolling.
 
Confessor, if I was a lesser man, I'd PM you to get into it with you there, but from your language, you are against Indivisible because it stars brown people and the main character is a woman, I take it? And that Skullgirls was a female fighting game?

Am I close?

Hoping for failure is just horrible. Not being hyped for it and deciding to not pledge is understandable, not every game is for you. But to religiously follow the campaign and give bad vibes so it fails. God.

But on the plus side, I rediscovered CoolText!

Not only that, but to fucking dog the creator on his thread, feigning that you're simply a consumer asking a question to a creator about a product. Ignoring said answer and attacking his dedication to the project. Attacking his team.

Get. Fucked. Confessor.

And the only reason I know I'm probably not getting banned is because I'm not using your real username, as well as that your confession is basically bulletproof armor for anyone responding to you in vehemence.

Get. Fucked.

You want their entire company to implode because you have a problem with dem blacks and dem women in video games.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet soooooooooooo fuuuuuuuuuuuuuccked.
 
Yes. Based on an early prototype of a game that will be released approximately 25 months from now, it will not be good enough to "wear that banner proudly."

What a nerd.
 
*Confessor talking to someone at a party*

"So, what do you do?"
Confessor: "I hate Indivisible."
"Sorry?"
C: "The video game Indivisible? I hate it. I hope it doesn't get funded. I check it's page frequently with the hope that it's failing.




Come back, why are you walking away?"
 
I'm always incredulous when going against the flow is demonized as "serving an agenda."

The single worst thing you can do to the creative process is insist that it never try anything new.

I mean, you'd think that would be self-evident given the definition of "creativity," but it seems like it's unintuitive somehow.

Here's my confession: I have creative pursuits (not a pro, haha), and seeing people insist on "upholding creator vision" like it's some sacred rite grates on me like seeing people insist vaccines cause autism. It's such an incredibly fundamental misunderstanding of how the creative process works. The best thing you can do to improve as a creative person is to step into something unfamiliar and then use your creativity to navigate it, which increases your toolbox and breadth as a creator.

It reminds me a lot of the undercurrent in North American (or just Western, maybe) society where people act like artistic skill is some kind of magical innate ability and they could NEVER draw like that. Of course you can. Everyone who can just practiced until they could.

I feel like it doesn't do any good to shame you now for what you did. What's done is done, and you have to realize that and move on. Easier said than done..I know. But you married your wife for a reason didn't you? Think of the reasons why you married her, and see if try to see if it can't be fixed (whatever problems you guys have). Usually people marry someone because they love them. Try and think why you loved her, analyze where you think it started going downhill, open up to her and communicate, and maybe see a counselor/therapist about these problems either separately or with your wife. If it really is a situation/marriage that is toxic or which there is no coming back from, then maybe it's time you guys get a divorce. If you have children, this may be hard... but it's better to have two parents who are functional and happy, then to grow up in a broken home. *that's of course if it is this type of situation going on* if not ignore last part.
 
When it comes to women and minorities in games there's always those few tools that make it seem like the game has to justify having a brown person in it. "bear that banner proudly." What horseshit. Like you give a shit.
