No, no, and no. He's got the personality of soggy wet napkin and the desperation of a self-hating pick-me, and no amount of money will turn that into something that deserves any physical contact from me. Not even a handshake. Sorry.   reply

Of all the feelings I've had towards this hellscape of a website, respect is not one of them. I like it, though. It's full of degenerates which keeps the standard of coexistence on a tolerably manageable level. No one is better than anyone because we've all read weird shit we don't want to be associated with. That said, no one IRL even knows I kno......   reply

As a gay man, I absolutely agree. Not to say that there aren't people IRL with strict preferences, but in fiction there seems to be a strong adherence to gender roles even in portrayals of gay couples (you can tell that the authors tend to have a "which one is the woman in this relationship" way of thinking when writing gay couples).   reply

I already finished mine (economics, did it in Sweden). It was hard, but I am glad I did it. I was being paid for the whole duration of it, and I got into teaching early on so by the time I finished my PhD I had already landed myself a permanent teaching job at a university in my city. The hardest part for me was the academic community (some aspect......   1 reply

What kind of bank would process 70k worth of transactions that are out of the ordinary?

And fo......   reply

For sure it's a valid ick. Also smokers don't seem to realize that if they smoke often enough and long enough, they will stink. The stench of whatever they are smoking will not just cling to their clothes, but their bodies and their environment as well, and no amount of washing will get rid of it. They will ooze that stench and somehow never reali......   reply

So 3 people have died after she had met them one-on-one? No way the cops aren't after her. She carves 5 figures but gets arrested before she manages to do the 6th. She's held in jail pending investigation, but when the cop goes to check on her in the morning, all he sees is a small wooden figure that resembles the girl: she couldn't carve the 5th ......   1 reply

This would be nice! I'd join!   reply

IDK if anyone here knows/remembers the original gogo figures? From the mid-90s, lol. They were a huge phenomenon in my elementary school back in the day, and for some reason (I can't remember how and why) I ended up running some dumb gambling operation where I would set up games, and to participate the players would have to bet on a gogo figure tha......   reply

but what if my homies are my "girls"?   reply

Hot: medium roast & with oat milk. Iced: cold brew, dark roast & with full milk. But tbh if there's only one kinda coffee being served, I'll drink it so long as it isn't sweet.   reply

IDK tbh. We're nearing the end of January and I'm already tired, lol.   reply
