Techno, well-done, even if a little over-done --- Quote from: Hanzo K. on July 23, 2011, 02:03:52 AM ---What it it was a Block of cheese that tasted like a marshmallow? --- End quote --- We've long since dove into the rabbit's hole, haven't we? You're just getting weirder and weirder. And soon, you're going to ruin cheese for me. :C --- Quote from: Jana on July 23, 2011, 05:37:01 AM ---I think you're being a little unclear, so let me choose my words carefully. Are you remaining celibate because you think sex is some kind of corrupting influence? It's pretty plain to see that you're hurting yourself already, whatever method and reason you've got. To be frank, I think your words are a little... Offensive? --- End quote --- I'm remaining celibate because I live in Florida, the land of Nothing To Do. The joke about Florida being God's Waiting Room is more or less true; unless you want to shell out ridiculous amounts of money to go to one of the major theme parks we have here - and depending on where you live, that means even more money for the commute - there really isn't a lot of anything to do besides hang out at the mall. There's very little social scenery down here if you're not a tourist. On top of all this Nothing going on, Florida also has a very diverse population. If you drove through Orlando for the length of maybe half a mile, you'll most likely have driven past a half-dozen different ethnicities. Now, don't pounce on that and think I'm being racist; I bring this up for a reason. People will sooner gravitate towards their own ethnicity in a random crowd, in their neighborhoods, in schools, where ever. When you start having people go for strength of numbers, you start forming a mob mentality. Within itself, that's all fine and dandy. Everyone gets along. Now take a half-dozen mobs and put them next to each other, and suddenly you have a whole lot of cock-flexing going on, everyone trying to be Top Dog and be the dominant force. It's fucking stupid. And my problem with it is that there are far too many people in my generation who are caught up in it. Every potential girlfriend in Florida that I could get has more often than not had some kind of exposure to this mentality and in turn subscribes to it. The ones that haven't are either already taken or are in the same school of thought as me; stay away from relationships until everyone around you grows the fuck up and matures a little. The reason why Florida is a fucking terrible place is because no one bothers to mature here - they're more concerned with the 'here-and-now', rather than the 'down-the-road'. I'm not someone who can be happy making minimum wage working in a McDonalds just because my minimum wage and my girlfriends' wages combined can afford us a shitty apartment - especially because that means that I'll be very dependent on having a girlfriend, and being unable to support myself on my own if we should break up. It'd be a relationship of necessity, not emotion, and that in turn means we'd be way more likely to piss each other off constantly than actually appreciate each others' company. This harkens back to my argument about a lot of relationships in my environment being massive sources of frustration and anger for a lot of the people around me. There's a reason I feel this way, and a reason I feel that Florida is the worst goddamn place to live, and both reasons are directly linked to each other. That is why I've personally demonized sex, and that is why I want to get out of Florida so badly. Until it stops being a casual, 'recreational' activity for the people in my age bracket around me, I want nothing to do with it. I don't feel like catching something when I lose my virginity, and unfortunately, it seems like every girl who's 'on the market' has already had multiple partners. Am I saying all girls are like this? Fuck no. That'd be a like hanging up a big neon arrow over my head that says in bright shiny letters 'MASSIVE MISOGYNIST/ROYAL ASSHOLE'. I know better than to make such a specific accusation. I know that this ideology is incredibly flawed. But the problem is, it's still more than 70% applicable to the girls around me, and ergo, I'm going to play it safe. I don't think sex is a corrupting influence, per se, but I do believe that it causes a change in someone on a rather deep mental level. In some people this could manifest as corruption, in others, maybe maturity, but in most, hedonism. I'm already hedonistic enough - I listen to music obsessively for the high I get off of good music, I waste countless hours playing pointless video games for the primal sake of entertainment, I eat the food I do for its taste, not for the health benefit (in this regard I've lucked out, because I like the taste of most healthy food). The last thing I need is to be reckless with something so serious as procreation, at my age, in my current income bracket - that being 'zero annual income'. When I'm established, have a good job that can support me, then sure, I'll start looking for a partner, and I'll most likely end up fucking her brains out. Until then, I'd rather look at something that has the potential to royally fuck my life up from a very logical position. It's just not a good idea for me, or for a lot of the people around me, so I'm not going to do it. Not until I - and any potential girlfriends I invest in - grow up. --- Quote from: Drunken Genichiro on July 23, 2011, 08:33:09 AM ---Who's the most influential person in your life and why? --- End quote --- Never really put much thought to it. There is no 'big-name' celebrity that I can point at and say 's/he's my role model'. If I had to think of someone, it'd probably be my friend Brittany. We're excellent foils for each other, and we use each other as sounding boards constantly. She comes to me for my Libra trait of assessing all the angles, and I go to her for her Capricorn ability to plow through tough decisions. Before anyone pounces on this and says 'Esi! Look! Female that you get along with! Go out with her!', NO. We're good friends. We'd be terrible mates for all the reasons that we're good friends. On top of that, she's a poly-amorous bi-sexual who's had more partners than I can care to remember. I'm monogamous. And terribly inexperienced. I'd be a disappointment for her sexually. --- Quote from: Drunken Genichiro on July 23, 2011, 08:33:09 AM ---Do you think Gensokyou exists somewhere? (Besides in the minds of ZUN and others) --- End quote --- Physically? No. But boy, would I love to be proven wrong. --- Quote from: Drunken Genichiro on July 23, 2011, 08:33:09 AM ---If you could use danmaku, what would your bullets be? --- End quote --- Blasts of hard light mixed with warped-air bubbles, and my character accessory would either be a Lyre or a scale. |
| Suikama:
So basically the only thing you'll fuck in Florida is Florida itself? BV |
| Mimachiro:
Believe me when I say that Esi is pretty much right about all he said about sex. I fully understand why he wants to wait; most in our age bracket just aren't ready. Anyway... Have you ever tried to split an arrow down the middle with another arrow? Have you ever been hunting before? What if that marshmallow tasted like a steak that was cooked and seasoned to perfection? |
| Tamer Anode/Cathode:
I appreciate your opinions on sexuality, Esi. You seem to be showing a lot of maturity and long-term thinking, and I'd like to think you're looking more for an emotionally fulfilling long-term relationship with a person you respect than satisfaction of short-term wants. I'd like to say I share the same opinion, but while you've looked to meditation and such to cope, I found... other means. As a PSL Librarian, what do you think of me aspiring to be a professional librarian? White bread or whole wheat? Gaming system of choice? Spices you'd suggest to someone wanting to expand their culinary horizons? |

This isn't ironic at all for the last few questions Not that many questions this time. SPEED ROUND, GO --- Quote from: Suikama Dash on July 23, 2011, 04:23:57 PM ---So basically the only thing you'll fuck in Florida is Florida itself? BV --- End quote --- That sounds painful, why would I try to stick my penis in the ground :wat: --- Quote from: Genichiro on July 24, 2011, 12:09:16 AM ---Have you ever tried to split an arrow down the middle with another arrow? --- End quote --- I've tried to many times, but the one time I did, it was an accident. And someone elses' arrow. --- Quote from: Genichiro on July 24, 2011, 12:09:16 AM ---Have you ever been hunting before? --- End quote --- Nope. Not even interested, either. --- Quote from: Genichiro on July 24, 2011, 12:09:16 AM ---What if that marshmallow tasted like a steak that was cooked and seasoned to perfection? --- End quote --- WHY DO YOU ALL WANT TO BOMBARD ME WITH MARSHMALLOW QUESTIONS And steakmallow? What the hell is with you people? ;-; --- Quote from: The Aquatic Colossal on July 24, 2011, 12:54:22 AM ---I appreciate your opinions on sexuality, Esi. You seem to be showing a lot of maturity and long-term thinking, and I'd like to think you're looking more for an emotionally fulfilling long-term relationship with a person you respect than satisfaction of short-term wants.

I'm not that innocent. --- Quote from: The Aquatic Colossal on July 24, 2011, 12:54:22 AM ---As a PSL Librarian, what do you think of me aspiring to be a professional librarian? --- End quote --- I'm actually hella-jealous. I would love to organize books in a massive massive county library or somethin like that. Hell, I did it all through middle and high school during my lunch hours - got a light snack, went to the 'media center', and grabbed a cart of books and took 'em to their places on the shelf. --- Quote from: The Aquatic Colossal on July 24, 2011, 12:54:22 AM ---White bread or whole wheat? --- End quote --- Whole wheat between those two choices, but I'm a big sucker for tomato basil bread. --- Quote from: The Aquatic Colossal on July 24, 2011, 12:54:22 AM ---Gaming system of choice? --- End quote --- PC first, then PS3, then 360. Nintendo just doesn't hold my interest anymore - nothing after GameBoy Advance. --- Quote from: The Aquatic Colossal on July 24, 2011, 12:54:22 AM ---Spices you'd suggest to someone wanting to expand their culinary horizons? --- End quote --- Garlic salt instead of regular iodized salt! It's better for you, and you can use a lot less and still get a noticeable change in flavor. Also, try using a lemon-pepper rub on chicken or fish. Eez deleeshus. |
