Yeah, these last couple episodes have been pretty good. The Looney Tunes was really well done, despite the absurd premise. It's clever episodes like that that have kept this show fresh for so long. Benny continues to be a great character. He's actually probably my favorite addition to the...

Nothing tops "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Not only is it the best movie, but it also has the best Christmas song as well. It also provides some wonderful, year-round insults like, "Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of rubbish...

This is a few years old during a rough re-election campaign against that mother fucker Hr Pufnstuf so I was pretty gaunt. I've put on a bit of weight (mostly muscle) since then.

I'm 100% certain I got malware from FoH. In order to check in on Tyen's meltdown last week I disabled the anti-virus on my work pc which, besides FoH, has never been used for anything beyond checking work email and visiting various government websites. However, like Destante, I decided to run a...

I really enjoyed it. It had a good balance of puzzles and combat, and a few of the puzzles really had me stumped for a while.

The last cocktail I had that I'd consider truly amazing was a mint julep at a place in downtown D.C. I think it was called "Sou'wester". Mint julep is one of my main standby drinks if I find myself in an upscale establishment (which is pretty damn rare, though).

Oh god tell me about it. Last Sunday I ate Doritos and Pizza Rolls for the first time in about 7 months. When I woke up the next morning I felt hungover. Headache, exhausted, bloated, sluggish. I used to down Doritos and Pizza Rolls on a routine basis. It's amazing how your body can tell you...

I live near Washington, D.C. I'm sure there are some great cocktail places in the city proper, but I tend not to go into the city for drinking all that much nowadays because cocktails are way cheaper and taste way better when I make them myself. $20 French Martini that tastes like Kool Aid...

Hell, thanks to Fedor I don't even believe it when a girl tells me face-to-face that she's a chick anymore.

Haha yeah that big bottle always gets questions. I used to work at an Olive Garden and for some reason we had a bottle of Galliano. That's actually how I first started drinking Harvey Wallbangers. I asked my bartender friend what the big bottle was for and he made me one and I loved it. In the 5...

Pretty much. As it stands currently in the USA, 90% of "bartending" jobs are going to be in chain restaurants where you'll either pour draft beer, open bottles, or make chain-style "specialty" drinks. There's no skill involved anymore. The only time I ever see what I consider real bartenders is...

On a serious note, the fact that we are actually starting to view trips into space as tourism absolutely amazes me. I hope I live long enough to see weekend trips to space become as commonplace as weekend trips to the beach.

I feel the same way. When I heard they were making this movie I felt very "meh" about it. But the trailer makes it look very interesting. I'm eager to see it.

Anyone a fan of Arabic coffee? I was taken by surprise the first time I tried it since it was a lot more tea-like than I anticipated. I usually drink coffee so black and thick it resembles a cup of tar, but occasionally I enjoy some lighter stuff.

Crazy is only fun when you"re reading about someone else dealing with it.

In my experience, it"s not about acting differently. It"s making it clear that you"re interested in being more than just friends. There are a few ways to do this, but the most obvious is to be direct about it. Ask her out for something specific that cannot be misinterpreted as anything other...

You"re already firmly entrenched in the friend zone. Unless you want yet another female friend then there is nothing you can or should do. If you actually want to go to the seasonal event (i.e not just because she"s going) then you should go, but don"t go just because she"s there. It"s a lost cause.

I"m sure most of us know people like Kilivek in real life who like to question culture and social norms and spout off lots of psychobabble and just generally think they"re smarter than everyone else. Honestly, maybe they are actually smarter than everyone else, and maybe they actually do know...

I dodged a bullet with the crazy Russian girl. God loves me.

I can kind of sympathize. There was this chick who I had a crush on for quite a while but she was always in a relationship and she was foolishly devoted to her jackass of a boyfriend. I met her in the States, but she was from Kazakhstan, and even after she returned to Kazakhstan we kept in...

It could easily be your tone of voice or word choice when giving your input. Sometimes it"s more important how you say something than what you say. Another thing to think about is whether or not you"re acknowledging the other person"s opinions as valid. If you listen to someone"s opinion and...

I tend to agree with Brekk. Movies are fine if you plan something afterward. My personal favorite are those Dave and Busters type of places. There"s alcohol for loosening up, a nice, casual atmosphere with lots of opportunities for talking, and the games give some relief from the...

Solar Plexus is serious business. Don Gato died after breaking his in a fall from a roof.

I"ve never heard of or known any guys who were paranoid or intimidated by toys. On the contrary, it"s always seemed like a good thing when a chick has tons of toys cause it means she"s got a crazy sex drive and you won"t get stuck with a dead fish in the sack.

One of the first things I did after coming back was delete her from all the social network sites I use (which I think is a good move after any break-up). One of the Russian social network sites I use shows who visits your page, and I noticed that she visited my page a few days after I got...

I think asking for more implies enjoyment.

I will say this thread was extremely helpful to me (Kazakhstan guy). Advice from friends was good, but having input based on facts without any emotional attachment was invaluable for helping me with my situation. Honestly, I probably wouldn"t have done it without this thread.

I think it"s common knowledge that outside the USA girls are not nearly as fat and thus much hotter. We"ve got them here in the states, but they"re diluted by the obese black chicks who think they"re hot and the fat Mexican skanks with the sharpie eyebrows. That said, the grass is always...

Small update since many seemed to be interested. I"m back in the States now. Haven"t heard anything from her regarding the letter/money, and at this point I probably won"t as she doesn"t know my US cell number and I severed most means of Internet communication (facebook, etc). I"ve got a...

This thread has been pretty dry of drama lately, so I"ll post an update on my situation. Fast forward for TLDR version. Full version:Last night she wanted me to have sex without a condom, and I explained to her that while I love her, I don"t think either of us is ready to risk involving a...

As you said, you"re not with a crazy person. This approachreallydoesn"t work with true crazies. Unfortunately, I know.

Ask and ye shall receive! After we fought and I ended it I got pretty sick and for several days she tried to comfort me and bought me medicine and made me tea and food, all of which I refused and basically acted like an asshole towards her, telling her that we were done and I didn"t need/want...

I understand all women are a bit crazy, but there are various levels. In my opinion and experience, this girl is just too sensitive and gets irrationally angry far, far too much about far, far too many trivial things. Am I wrong in thinking that? Let me give another example. I really don"t think...

Ok, so I tried talking to her about it. We sat down last night and I explained that I can"t continue to live life like I have been. That is, to feel like I always have to walk on egg shells around her for fear of her getting offended and exploding due to some offhand, harmless comment/question...

Thanks for all the insights. Thanks for the link. I looked over it, and a lot of it does sound like her. Although she"s never done anything in extremes (doesn"t drink, doesn"t smoke, doesn"t really have any vices) and she"s never actually hurt herself or tried to hurt herself other than that one...

She"s had tests done, and physically her heart seems to be fine. It"s all related to stress, and it almost only happens when she"s in a very stressful situation. It began, for example, when she was preparing for her Thesis defense at the end of her master"s degree a couple years ago. One of...

Background: I live and work overseas and have been with my girlfriend for almost 2 years, and we"ve been living together for about a year in the apartment rented for me by my company. We met each other when I was in another city (her city) and a couple months later she came to my city. The...

and in the fucked-up mind of a woman you"ll be the bad guy for putting a keylogger on the computer.

Just stop looking for women in America. As has been brought up before, ridiculously expensive wedding rings are a cultural thing, particularly American and "Western" cultures. Go find yourself a nice Eastern European girl. I know that for Russians earrings are actually considered the...
