Going to post it here since other-GAF wouldn't appreciate it as much. Ran into this guy while playing Everquest the other day.

Everquest 2! I used to have fond memories of the first and 2nd. Its total ass now though. I just followed PwrBttm around a little and attacked some friendly guards. It was a productive adventure.

I have never played everquest but can you ask people directly? like "hey you power bottom, show me what you've got!" XD

I first learned about Everquest when I was eight or so and some family members were showing it off to me. I thought it looked boring then, and I can't imagine trying to play it now. I understand the desire to play old MMOs though. If I knew anybody who played it, I'd probably fire up Lineage II for old times' sakes.

I'm glad you and PwrBttm had some fun though.

Just read Mindfulness in Plain English. I've read it like seventeen times, it's a really good book and the first one I'd recommend to beginners.

As Bel Marduk said, it's not about 'clearing your head'. Or at least, that's not something you just do. The closest thing to that which you will be doing is adopting an attitude of renunciation. Meditation is giving things away until you're left with nothing but awareness of the present moment. It's not a 'doing', or if it is it's a kind of 'doing by non-doing'. You just let go, let go of your expectations, or looking for signs of progress, all of your daily concerns, even your sense of identity, all of these things are just concepts. Your aim is to look past the concepts that normally rule our lives to see the bare awareness underneath them, this non-conceptual awareness is 'mindfulness'. In every moment we experience there is some portion of mindfulness (and attention) but in the case of meditation we're working to exercise these faculties.

You will get distracted by thoughts a lot. The other aspect of mindfulness is 'remembering', essentially remembering your intention to cultivate bare awareness. Mindfulness will alert you to when you're getting distracted, and bring you back when you've gone off track. But you can (and ideally should) be mindful of everything. Mindfulness is like a mirror, it impartially reflects everything you put in front of it while it is there, and holds on to none of these things when they leave. Mindfulness is the most helpful tool in defeating all of the obstacles a meditator faces. Say if you just can't get your mind to calm down, it seems to be running everywhere and you're getting frustrated, then just watch your mind run to and fro, and watch your frustration. With that these things might suddenly go away, or they might stick around for many years, but regardless you will be gradually loosening the grip that these things have on you from observing directly their causes and conditions, causing the mind to naturally become disenchanted with them and see past them.

The other aspect is concentration, or essentially narrowing your awareness on one item. But this isn't done by striving, rather the development of tranquility causes this to happen almost effortlessly. With deeper concentration you will naturally be distracted less, this is also the faculty that lends intensity to meditation. You can equate concentration to light waves focused by a magnifying glass. Ordinarily an amount of sunlight might fall on a piece of paper and only heat it slightly, but if the same amount of light is brought together to one point, the paper bursts into flames. All meditation employs both mindfulness and concentration to some degree, only one or the other might be emphasized at different times.

Meditation is essentially just a form of mental exercise where you're attempting to strengthen the faculties of mindfulness and concentration. Both can be considered forms of attention in a sense, just that mindfulness is a broad and inclusive kind limited to phenomenon in the present moment and thus enables us to see insight into phenomenon, and concentration collects awareness on a single point and in the process generates great intensity.

Thanks for the post and the link. I'll check the book out when I have some time, but meditation is definitely something I want to learn.

If you're not gay, why are you asking this? Are you a market researcher trying to find out more for your target audience of gays in a certain demographic or something?

Not attacking you or anything, just genuinely curious.

As for meditation, I can not ever clear my head at all. It's probably why I have issues falling asleep as turning my mind off is damn near impossible for me.

So a way for me to "clear my head" is simply to write or act-out scenes and imagine these scenes. Kinda childish, yeah, but it works.

I don't know. I used to lurk this thread. I have a few gay friends and you guys seem cool. I'll just be in this thread as a supporter of the LGBT community. I'm just genuinely curious. :)

And am I allowed to ask for hair advice in this thread? :(

I don't know the first thing about hair or anything of the like, but what does your hair look like now?

First tip, don't get Justin Beiber's hair style. For *Mumei drops in from the ceiling with the ban hammer*--um... right.

Thanks. :)

Here's how it looks now. But it makes me look 12.

I had a similar haircut (although my hair touched my eyebrows) for as long as I can remember, and it not only had the effect of making me look like I was twelve, but it got really hot, and considering where I live, I didn't need the extra help. A few months ago I decided to get it cut and got a five on the top and three on the sides and have been much more happy with it, and my hair has become much less of a nuisance. It's not the most original advice, but I don't like having to deal with my hair and I'm one of those people who thinks that the very idea of gel is too much gel, so I wasn't going to do anything elaborate with it anyway.

and with that i'll never talk about hair again
 
Wait, wait, wait, I thought Nier was GayGAF's game... Now it's something else? :(

Also, today I've come to the conclusion that I have a massive crush on a coworker. Ugh he's so fucking hot, and he's flirty with everyone. He used to smack my ass and hug me from behind randomly until I told him to stop (I was embarassed because it waas so random). So instead of being touchy feely he tells me how cute I am whenever we work together. He has this slight british accent and it's just so hot. Unf. Plus he has a rockin' ass. So sexy.

Why does he not have any crotch? Like its smoother than a drag queen in spandex.

Honestly, dick size is so unimportant as long as it's not a chode or something. Personally, If I'm gonna get fucked by someone I don't want a huge dick inside me because that'd hurt like a bitch. And if I'm going to fuck him then dick size is even less important. In conclusion:

face > torso > chest > ass > arms > dick size

If you can't tell, I'm going through porn withdrawl now that I have no computer and only a phone. This is the worst.

Quick question for you guys with body hair, I havent trimmed my chest hair in a decade or so. I was wanting to give it a trim to help see my upper body definition during workouts and such, but whats the best way? I mean I have a beard trimmer, but I always find that instead of getting a nice, clean trim I end up with eaither too short or hard to manicure as in its too patchy. Tips?

I have a semi-busted BlackBerry so there aren't any for me. :(

I get paid next Friday so maybe a can buy a cheap laptop or a netbook. I'm scared a cheap laptop/netbook will terrible though. I'll probably only have $300-$500 to buy a computer. :(
 
continuing with the pseudo-gay wrestlers (waaaay too many TD gifs), this time with funny text

Unless I added the wrong person on PSN, don't you have a Vita that you can use? I've heard everything looks better on an OLED screen.

I hope I added the wrong person, because having 15% of trophies on Welcome Park is shameful.

Who the hell plays Welcome Park.
Oh yeah, Vita has no games.

I think I've spent more time stretching my wallpapers and grinning like an idiot than I've spent in Welcome Park.
Mostly because it's really difficult.

The Vita totally has games. I can't be the king of the thread for a dead console. :(

Fuuuuuuuuuck me. I forgot I own a Vita. It's pretty much my Persona machine so I haven't played much beyond a bit of Rayman Origins/Persona 3 Portable. It's in my cupboard until Persona 4: Golden comes out. Oh, and I only touched Welcome Park once really fast and found it super pointless. Trophies/Achievements don't really interest me tbh. I haven't played much games apart from my 3DS and Wii lately (as in the past year or two). My PS3 is just a blu ray/netflix player as of late. I wish my PSN was my Twitter handle or my GAF username though. Sucks that you can't change it. I'd actually use my PS3/Vita if I had a different username.

Since this is so off topic..... DICKS DICKS DICKS ALL OVER MY CHEST. ;)

That's MaKayla Maroney scowling. She was photoshopped into the picture. She's now a meme.

EDIT: Also I'm starting to come around on this Daley fellow. He looks like fun.
 
So... I'm going to post all my gaming accounts in case anyone wants to add me:

Xbox Live: Yaceka (I might change it to my twitter handle later this month though)
PSN: marKUS-rob
3DS friend code: 1332-7733-8233

See, I wouldn't really have a problem with my PSN username if it didn't remind me of stones on gamefaqs and bring up bad memories of my "old life". I don't even know why there were caps in my name either, I must have been so fucked up from alcohol or weed.
