You don't understand! some people are just too heterosexual to get their balls grabbed by a male doctor to get tested for testicular cancer, that's just so gay man
Also, Happy Belated Birthday~

ok so.. what's the point of losing weight if i'm gonna have loose skin
bye im done with this bs
bye im done with this bs
I think that only happens if you were really overweight. Even then, I'd think it'd be a boost to your confidence to lose weight even if you do have a little bit of extra skin.
Here's an interesting video that DyslexicAlucard showed me about a dude who went through it. Kinda cool, but sad at the same time.

Just wondering, does the "Half-Your-Age-Plus-Seven Rule" also applies in the gay dating world?
Just date whoever you want as long as it's not illegal, and it's a positive relationship for both of you and not an abusive sort of set up.

i'm at an embarrassing
250+ pounds

Well I think it'd be cool to lose some weight so you're healthy. You don't have to get all super skinny. Losing any weight can be a good thing for your health and it'll probably look good too. If you do lose a large amount of weight and end up with some loose skin. It's not too big of a deal I think. Most people won't know about it. They'd just see a pretty fit looking guy. After saving up some money, you can get some surgery to get rid of it as well I think.
Also I don't think anybody cares about stretch marks.
Isn't skin very flexible up to a certain age (20+)? I never weighed quite as much as you do (my maximum weight was at 90kg/1,73 when I was 17). I got down to 65kg in a matter of a couple months and had no loose skin anywhere (just some slight stretch marks).

Try to lose some weight then build muscle. Building muscle will help you with lose skin. Don't worry about lose skin too much though.
Skin is very resilient regardless of age.
Nice! What kind of films do you like, and is there a specific genre you like in particular? I'm a huge fan of abstract realism and indie films.

Drama is my favorite. Favorite movie is Casino Royale (2006). Some others:
There Will Be Blood
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
The English Patient
Vanilla Sky
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)
Chinatown
Blade Runner
Kingdom of Heaven
Layer Cake
Somewhere
The Tree of Life
Before Sunrise etc.
Pulp Fiction
So what is abstract realism in film or some of your favorites? I hadn't heard of it before.
I could try out Netflix for free (on Wii U) for a full month if I had a frikkin' credit card. Who has/needs a credit card. Not even my parents have one. Urgh /rant
Depends if you are all-around healthy. But generally it should be, yeah.

Get those rewards and Apple Pay. It's a benefit if you do it right.
Nah, I'm poor and shouldn't have a credit card anyway. It would be way too tempting to go all out and be in debt for the first time in my life.
Oh, it's a digital wallet and more like the Steam wallet. Okay. I don't have an Apple device in my possession though. :/
Edit: Upon reading a bit more about it, I found out it's not at all like Steam wallet. Okay... confusing.
Edit: Huh, so you still need a credit card in order to use it as I just found out on webopedia.
So it doesn't really solve my problem. Still, thanks for the suggestion.
@DylexicAlucard (beneath post): Looking good, glad you got more confident with the help of this thread here.

Here's a random pic I took of myself with a suit jacket on. I'm finally gaining a little bit of self-confidence. I no longer think I'm an ugly monster, though I still don't think I'm all that good looking, haha. It'll be a while yet before I can talk to someone I find very attractive, but at least me losing weight and talking with you guys has helped! <3
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
You are so cute~ I'm glad your self-esteem is getting better!

You have two sexier men right there on the cover... That's just wrong!!

I'll fight you. Let's rumble.
(Idris and Pratt are very sexy too, but Mr. Hemsworth does it for me in ways I can't fully describe on GAF.)
You're really cute, don't let anybody else tell you otherwise! hope you'll build up enough confidence to try to meet someone!
Frankly my dear, you're hot.
If you lose weight at a reasonable and healthy pace (aka you don't lose something crazy like 30 or more pounds in 2 weeks or less), loose skin shouldn't be too much of an issue. If you tone up at the same time as you lose weight (which is imo, the best way to go about it. You won't see immediate results on the scale so some people don't like it), it won't be an issue at all.
Not with this picture, ugh.
You look very nice, honestly.

Don't be so negative. I lost 70 lbs and sure I have my fair bit of loose skin but continually working out tightens it up.
I know it's difficult to get hair right, but was papier-mache the only solution?
I don't think anyone would have described you as monstrous to begin with, but it's still great to hear that you're feeling more confident.
Abstract realism is similar to psychological realism except that realistic characters and settings are abstracted. Some of my favorite films in this genre include Amelie, the Black Swan, Judas Kiss (Gay indie film), and Brazil (a 1985 film by Terry Gilliam). Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind has some abstractions, could technically be considered Abstract Realism. It's also one of my favorites too.
DA Inquisition is one of the best PC ports! Bioware and EA did a great job optimizing the game for consoles and PC, unlike other developers/publishers...
I'm late, but happy b-day Kitchenmotors
Good to see you doing well after the surgery.
Hate to break it to you, but you're handsome. :3
Hair and beards still look bad, though. I'm playing through DA: Awakening now and even that game has better hairs :/

That's good to hear the game is well optimized for both PC and consoles.
I still think the hair is very ugly though lol

Yeah, I know. Not every game is perfect. Look at Lara's hair.

sorry about the breakdown, i'm gonna keep going at it but i'll lose weight at a normal pace and try to build muscle. Hopefully that reduces the risk of loose skin, thanks for the advice guys.
Most hair looks okay if you have the hardware to enable all the different AA. And mods are soon coming out anyway.
Unless you play on console, then you can do nothing about that.
No problem.
Still impresses me. Best hair evah!

So many video games coming out, and here I am, completing my backlog while studying two degrees and saving up my money for Smash Bros U.
Just don't tell me anything about Freedom Wars, Fantasy Life or DA:Inquisition or I'll become crazy. ;_;

Tomb Raider was such a good game, I loved it idc what people say.
The only thing that I didn't like was the glorified death scenes with her. Was quite unsettling. The rest of the game is fantastic.

I'm still mad that Rise of the Tomb Raider is Xbox One exclusive. Hopefully it's timed exclusive and comes to PC, which is very likely to happen. Sony players will be left out
it's microsoft. nothing is ever exclusive.

To be fair, there are Halo games that are available on PC, and Surface/Windows RT. Also, if you have a linux machine and use Wine/windows emulators, you can run said Halo games on it. So...

Yeah Lara's hair looked pretty incredible on the PC. It freaked out sometimes and looked weird, but most of the time, it was great.
I am not sure if I want to get DA:I on PC or PS4. I don't have a PS4 yet, but getting one soon. I'm pretty sure I could run DA:I on mostly high/possibly ultra settings on my PC right now, but I sort of want to play it on the PC. Mods tho... having the option to mod the game is so tempting.

What's your rig? DA:I will probably look better and run better on your PC.
Edit: is there a French/Francophone community OT? I've tried looking for one to no avail. Hispanic OT is like dead...

Video card could obviously be better, but I don't have the extra cash right now to get a new one (if I'm getting a PS4 soon anyways), and it runs most things I want at High/Ultra just fine.
