FakeGAF 6: Fear the Walking Thirst

fun fact: I took a pole dancing class once (I sucked) and the instructor looked exactly like Daisy Ridley!

lol

I was visiting my friend once who is a fitness freak. She teaches yoga, pilates, etc. and was like "you should come tomorrow. We never get guys in the class" haha okay how bad can it be, I thought. I show up in running shorts and a T-shirt. Everyone else has their yoga fitness stuff on. We are in a room that looked like a ballet room with mirrors on the wall and bars to hold onto. Fuck, what is this place? There are about twenty other women there glaring at me. My friend tells me to go to the front by her. I was mortified. "Just follow along and I'll help you if you need it" so we get going and she keeps stopping the class to fix my form, etc. I'm falling over, red as a beet, and stuck where everyone can see me.

I swear that class lasted what felt like forever. It sounds so cliche but it's exactly how it went down. My friend was like "you did fine!" but I was like never again.

Edit: acrid, this was in Los Gatos too! Bad memories

Introduce me. We can be related bro

I don't think you're enough of an irresponsible shithead douchebag to meet her tastes. Plus you'd probably end up getting your ass kicked by me if history is any indication.

One time she had a boyfriend (this was a few years ago when she was a teenager) come to my mom's house at night and stomp on her car's (my sister's) windshield and break it because he was mad about something. She still took him back... If that tells you anything

my best friend's colleague is actually a male world champion or something like that.

I want to do a lot of "weird" things. I want to paint nails and do peoples' makeup (Not joking). I think I'd be the shit at it because I know how to paint the human face and I know what makes it look good.


see that's the problem. It looks absolutely ridiculous.. But I want to try it for the challenge.
 

you can't wear long shorts like that. you'll have no grip on the pole ò.ó

I've watched the youtube videos where the premise is like "have your boyfriend do your makeup" -- And the joke of it is that usually he does a shit job and has no idea what he's doing.

I would knock that out of the park.

Holy crap. I should just ask HN if I can do her makeup. I just had this revelation.

Yeah, we probably should. FakeGAF relationship lottery.
Bed pool?


The three of them share similar facial qualities. With differences obviously, but some people think they look the same.

You managed to pick a picture that makes Natalie portman and kiera knightly look even more different from each other than they normally do. But Ridley, no chance. She looks more similar to Taylor swift than she does either of them

hahahaha oh man. I love this story because it's exactly how it would have happened if I was in your shoes. Same attire and everything.

The only time I ever really had discourse with Wazzy was when I said something bad about Final Fantasy VIII, and got into a three hours long argument about it.

I've never seen someone unconditionally love a game that much.

How's everyone's handwriting? If it's good, did you have to practice a lot to get there?

My handwriting has been pretty shit for ~20 years and hasn't improved. I'm left handed and my hand tends to cramp up when writing. I'm sure it's because of gripping the pen too tightly, but if I loosen it feels sloppier.

Maybe Chrono Trigger comes close.

I will defend dark souls as the best game of the past 20 years at least until I take my dying breath. It was the game that made me not give up on games.

you're next, kid. I'd bet on you!



The best character ever written

aw :) not likely though! I'm not seeing anyone anytime soon.

my bet is on you (obviously it's already too late to bet on that though) and Acrid

edit: actually one person I messaged + really liked on first glance just visited my profile and didn't reply ;_; don't bet on the slow horse, son. (I don't think that's what people actually say but I don't know horse race lingo)

He must be gay!

That's what I say every time a woman isn't interested in me.

"Don't bet on the slow horse" actually is horse racing lingo, btw.

They look nothing alike. All 4 of them. They look so different that if I wanted to I could draw all 4 of them and have each of the drawings look different yet accurate. I don't want to spend the next 3 hours on that though so you'll just have to take my word for it.

yes, that's probably why he's listed as straight!

it is? for real? I just made that up. woah I'm born to do this.

Why watch horses race when you can watch cars and sometimes see them crash and explode in a spectacular fashion instead? Horses never do that.

I've been complimented on mine before. I write in a cursive/print hybrid.

I can't actually remember the last time I handwrote something tho.

do I seem like a guy who knows anything about horse racing. look at me ᖗ ͡° ³ ͡°ᖘ

my only areas of expertise are drawing and bullshitting, and one of those might be bullshit

I can handwrite beautifully if I put a lot of time and attention into it and look at references of beautiful handwriting. It's just like drawing anything else.

Writing naturally is kind of a mess, though, because I don't do it frequently.

My handwriting looks like a dyslexic intoxicated chicken scratched the paper and then shmeared all over it.

I heard that people with messy handwriting and rooms are lowkey geniuses though so I don't feel too bad.

As far as defending games go I'll defend Spec Ops The Line with my last breath

I ADORE this game so much. As someone who has spent 3 years of her life in Iraq(not at one time), it captures the mood of PTSD so well, that sense of dread and doom and everything collapsing around you. It is the best allegory I have ever seen on the Iraq War(yes I know the game is in Dubai I have played it so many times)

Shit, I still need to play this game. I continue to hear great things about it's story.
edit: damnit, it doesn't look to be playable on XB1.

This is part of what I've consistently failed to grasp about drawing, painting, etc. The fine motor skills in my hands don't react like that, so even if I were using reference material I still would not be able to produce good looking writing or a drawing. Maybe that is something that comes with practice though, like you mentioned a while ago.

"nothing" is an incorrect statement since similarity is a matter of degrees. They all look more like Jared leto than they do a bluegill
 
Spec Ops: The Line is a terrible game that fails at everything it tries to be and people latching onto it are just posers. It's a nonsensical fantasy story that's pretending to be a grounded warfare tale and it presents literally no choice to the player and then tries to make you feel bad for making that choice even though you have no option. The only option is to stop playing, so that's what I did. I went AWOL. Fuck you game. You aren't worth shit and your gunplay is just dreadful and your checkpoints are unfair.
