I could be a long lost cousin...
Lets chat a bit on steam long lost cousin.
Do I have to get out of bed?
(It's a little disturbing the first thing this exchange reminds me of is GTAIV. COUUUUUUUUUUUUUSIN!)

Haha I drunkposted a Pokemon music hate thread last night
If theres anything that the brexit taught me is that if a majority of people vote for something, that makes it the objectively correct choice

This episode of GoT was everything to me.
It singlehandedly redeemed the dullest, most uninteresting season so far.

You talking about hard home or bastard bowl? Because s6 has been phenomenal imo
This post on NeoGAF means nothing to me.
It single-handedly ruined the best, most interesting page so far.
There are some things I don't like about it but overall it's one of the best shows to grace tv.
Definitely not for everyone though, so I can understand why you might not like it

I have a friend who absolutely reviles the show because of all the changes made from the books. It makes me wary of starting it since I've read them.
I will probably binge watch it when its over but I dont have any hype for it.
Get captured by Samurai and taken back to their village. In time, be assimilated and live as one of them. Learn their way. Be the last one. The Last Samurai.

I can't even imagine having to start over with friends. Are you drifting away from them, or not keeping up with where they're going?
It's hard, honestly. All of my close friends are long distance. But I've gotten very, very good at using texts, phone calls and video conferencing to keep in contact with them. Still, nothing like being in the same room as someone. Have you tried meet-ups?

Bought Dreamfall + The Longest Journey on the Steam sale. Hope they are good.

Solve this in the future with a sleep aid. Melatonin or something like that.

The Longest Journey is one of the best adventure games ever made and in my top 10. Dreamfall is a little disappointing in comparison but continues the story so it's definitely worth playing. Haven't finished Dreamfall Chapters yet but it's on my immediate queue.
Don't actively try to start over socially. I basically started over about halfway through high school and I really regret it. I still have friends but not nearly as many close ones as I used to. I miss having more people to hang out with. If you can, just try meeting new people but don't actively ditch your old friends unless they're toxic to you.
we're ahead of the curve

Justin's already talking about dying his hair. If he paints his nails I'm going to be jealous because that's a luxury I can't afford.

Welp, it doesn't seem to work on my PC so I guess I'm returning it :/ Doesn't play with sound. Also you can't change the resolution/play it windowed
^ Lili you should encourage the boyfriend nail painting. It's fun and I want to start pushing against the idea that it's somehow "not masculine" or otherwise off limits to men.
I showed my nails to the google hangout I have with several guy friends from school where we continue to bullshit regularly to this day and the response was predictable. After I defended it by saying "how's this so different from wearing cool glasses or a watch or a nice belt?" I got back "it's equivalent to wearing high heels".
The most tolerant response I got was basically "whatever floats your boat, but women won't like it"
With respect to the point he made:
1) I don't give a shit
2) Haven't seen any evidence of that so far

Steam versions of older games are very, very hit and miss, unfortunately. The GOG version is better. But even then, there can be compatibility issues.
But guys actually wear heels semi often? Short guys sure but that's pretty much the point.

People are really narrow minded and dumb
You're hanging out at P(n+1)
This is very true. What sparked this post though?

Do you ever paint your nails for a weekend event or anything?

There's nothing wrong with men wearing nail color, but it's not normal. So you just have to be okay with being different, which some people conflate as wrong. It may take several years to normalize, or never happen at all.
Yeah, for three-day weekends and for parties. But I basically work with nail polish remover all day long, so it's super ineffective to paint them throughout the week.

What part of what Jobbs said sparked that?
Oh right, I should have read more into the context.
I'm still convinced that men who make fun of other men for being "too girly" are themselves just uncomfortable with their sexuality.
For sure. I assumed that was your reasoning for not painting them more often. Fun that you get the opportunity to sometimes though

When he said he gets shit for painting his nails and not being masculine?
The wording of that post made it sound like you were referring to Jobbs as narrow-minded. That's why I was confused.
Things may have hit a pivot point. I'll be back in 5 minutes

Kissed a mod for a tag; liked it
Once I get home from work today I'm gonna sleep for days. Holy crap I'm tired.
Or at the very least have been indoctrinated by a very limiting concept of gender norms. I enjoy watching those getting knocked down.
Just finished a recording session for a small role. It's so funny how almost every actor at least once finds a word or phrase they simply can't say.
For some reason the word "proletariat" was in the script. Yes. I realized just before the call that this was almost certainly going to be a problem, so I made sure to master the pronunciation myself first, but even after going over it the actress predictably kept banging up against that word, haha.
I think I secretly enjoy it though. We have a laugh and it helps break the ice further (I do a readthrough before earnestly recording)
This aussie girl was so adorable.
Three aussies on cast.
To be fair, they wouldn't outright reject it, I just got about the type of "ribbing" and ball busting I expected. I don't really care. I'm just a guy who likes neat colors. This is reflected in my art and my clothes and my room so why not my nails? I don't get it. I don't consider it a statement on masculinity or femininity.

Ask her out
Maybe both?
Most of them are getting married or having kids now. And that's fine. Really happy for them. I was on track to be that guy about a year ago and I won't go into why it didn't but I'm in such a different place of life right now it's difficult to relate these days. It's also kind of a reminder of what could have happened for me :/
