One of my best friends is in Japan, but because I'm not sure exactly what part of Japan he goes to school and lives in, I'm worried.

The rest of Japan I don't really care about. I can't really relate to disasters that don't directly affect myself, or the people I care about.

The sad, sad truth. To some, this forum is a means of communication, as well as a form of entertainment.
Yeah, to some of us this is really our primary source of communication with other people.. I don't think it's a bad thing though. Some people are just not comfortable or interested in speaking to other people in person.

If not being able to post on an internet forum has a more than negligible effect on someone, that person needs to get their priorities straight.
You're a close minded numskull. Not everyone on these boards have engaging lives, some people have few friends and the only way they feel connected to each others is through these forums(And lol I'm not talking about me :awesome: ). It's not your place to tell anyone that they're living there lives incorrectly if these boards play a large role in their life. I can't stand people like you.

numskull.
Lol, num.

Anyway, He has a point too. Research Hikkikomori and see what he's talking about. This forum is a wonderful place, but outside is a place to be as well. Also, forums tend to warp and shape the mind in the wrong form. I don't go to 4chan anymore for that reason.

See that last part wasn't needed, or nice.

Tho, I wonder if Bombsoldier is ok.
It's true though. I know it's rude and close minded, but I don't care about events, or people who have no relevance to my life.

Natural disasters, starving children, diseases, etc. None of it really impacts me emotionally.

Well ascribing extreme significance to an internet forum doesn't mean you're suffering from any personality disorder, it certainly doesn't mean you're excessively shy, social phobic or socially withdrawn. It simply means that you find these forums to be more or equally compelling to real life. And sometimes real life is just very boring.

I admit that there is a problem someone doesn't have a life outside the boards, but that isn't what I was talking about here.

I'm eating at the school diner, I ask why a girl was served before me even though I ordered before her and the ******* guy in charge at the time says it's because she is a girl; so she's special, with a really bad attitude towards me. I'm pretty sure it's not the company policy to be sexist in favor of women, I can't stand douchebags who do and say whatever they want just because they have a little bit of power.

What really sucks about all this though is that tomorrow is first Saturday of Spring Break, so they'll probably be no one here who I can report him to. Their may not be anyone available for me to report him throughout all of Spring Break(all of the coming week); I like reporting people like him as soon as possible. It would be awesome if I could get him demoted, he doesn't deserve his position.

No, but I can share my opinion of those people: that they are sad and have sad lives. It's sad to see people whose only social outlet is on the internet. shrug.

So I almost had sex with my best friends older sister last night

I'm unhappy about this for a few reasons. Among which are the basic facts that she's a full decade older than me, it would be statutory **** (not to mention the fact I haven't even reached the age of consent, DOUBLE ILLEGAL), and that was probably my one opportunity to physically express my affection for her and I didn't have a condom on me.

Add to this whole scenario that not only is she my best friends sister, but also one of my closest friends. And that she's had some sort of on-again/off-again relationship going on with a man I consider another of my closest friends, as well as something of a father figure.

There are a lot more intricacies to this story that I could only explain by going into somewhat explicit detail, which I have neither the time nor inclination to do. But I think you get the jist of it. I'm also unhappy about the fact that I can't talk to anyone about it. Literally no one. I could talk to her about it, but for some reason I doubt that would make me less confused. Which is the only reason that I'd EVER post something this personal for you jackals to read.

Well, since you didn't actually have sex, I don't see a big problem here. If you did actually have sex, the situation would be much worse considering her on and off relationship with the other guy that is one of your close friends.

Please tell me you didn't choose not to have sex with her because you didn't have a condom. That would be really weak man. You probably should talk with her. You didn't have sex with her so nothing has to change, however things are likely going to change unless you two address the issue.

Oh yeah, because risking getting a girl pregnant for temporary pleasure is soooooo smart. If you don't want a kid but you want to have sex ALWAYS use some kind of birth control. Honestly, him choosing to not have sex because he doesn't have a condom is NOT weak. It's smart, and also shows good self-control.

Ugh. I put lotion on them since they were incredibly dry, and now it feels as if I had dipped them in ****ING ACID. MOTHER ****ER OWWW

Should be good in a few minutes.

Sounds scandalous.

Agreed with Master Xanthan, could have been worse. Seems like was handled well anyway.

He clearly hasn't learned anything, I dunno why he's unbanned. He's just going to continiously troll.

So anyway Kane nothing happened so it's fine, I'd advise against doing anything if the chance appears again because sleeping with a friends ex or sister is a big no-no, unless you want to get yourself into an incredibly complicated situation.

And on a different note, don't drink if you're ill because the hangover is dreadful. I feel unbelievably ill.

He's not denouncing the activity, just a person's excessive reliance on it. If I say that heterosexual nymphomania is bad for your health, I'm not saying that heterosexuality is the problem.

Annoyed this morning.

I woke up and noticed my eye was pale blue in the eye I had surgery in. It also looked like the new cataract was "crumpled" but on further investigation, it had fluid in it that would move. Now, I know my vision will get worse before it gets better, but I can't see anything but light in that eye, and the pale blue looks very similar to a guy's eye at work who had an arrow go through it and no longer works.

I'll be very upset if I go blind.

He even changes subjects that have absolutely nothing to do with homosexuality towards it.

Edit: Ninja'd, can't believe it took me 3 minutes to write that on my phone. Anyway wow CK, go to a doctor and get them to check it out, that sounds really bad.

Called the on call doctor. Everything is okay with the eye. The coloration is due to the gas bubble/fluid. He is concerned with my having headaches as that is a sign of pressure changing. I may go to the ER to get that checked shortly.

Not really. Homophobia often is a defense for homosexual tendencies. I cited this once, but a study showed that the more openly homophobic a person, the more they are turned on by homosexual pornography.

Stephen Fry said it best:

Lol, dude you don't need a condom to avoid pregnancy. Get her the morning after pill, or you can simply pull it out in time. If there is a girl you've wanted to **** and the opportunity arises then **** her! Don't make some weak *** excuse like I didn't have a condom. Because in actuallyity that's what it is, an excuse! Just an excuse to justify giving into his fears

But of course there is nothing shameful about not sleeping with her if the reason what that he was afraid of breaking so many relationships.

He's not denouncing the activity, just a person's excessive reliance on it. If I say that heterosexual nymphomania is bad for your health, I'm not saying that heterosexuality is the problem.
That's a somewhat decent point I guess, but you have to realize that he is condemning a group of people. When we speak of people who rely on internet for social communication we are essentially talking about a sub-culture. I'm convinced that he is ignorantly overstating the detrimental effects of relying on the internet for social communication. For many people in person communication simply isn't fulfilling and there is nothing wrong with that.(I think it's called introversion). Ultimately my point was that him condemning people for relying on the internet for a social outlet is no better than condemning gays for living a homosexual lifestyle.

Also Kane for all you know she could've had an STD.

So the moral of the story is, you did good, and if it isn't already painfully obvious, ignore everything Merk says.

Dude don't deflect, answer my question. How is you condemning this group of people any better than someone condemning homosexuals?


Ha, no, he definitely can't. His obsession could mean that he has a tendency for it, which would be so ironic.
I actually only use homosexuals as an example because Luigitoilet is always championing their cause. I really find it annoying how he enjoys condemning all groups but he is always defending homosexuals, it's a disgusting kind of hypocrisy and I don't understand why someone like this is allowed to moderate the boards.

Oh and I don't have homosexual tendencies and I'm actually not homophobic. It just annoys me how these boards put so much effort not offending them, far more so than any other sub-culture, it's gotten to the point where we can be infracted by voicing a simple negative opinion about gays. It's kind of ridiculous.


Edit: @Kane: Pluvia is gay. It is never advisable for a straight man to take advice from a gay man. Also Pluvia doesn't like me because I'm not an ''Ally'', he does not have your best interest at heart. I hope you're not offended by this Pluvia.

Because "She might have an STD, or she could get pregnant, use a condom" is bad advice?

I honestly think you're the stupidest person I have ever seen.

Stephen Fry said it best:
Again, I'm not homophobic. Also I'm not sure I understand the argument. Are racists secretly black?

I'm not sure if you can relate to this topic the way the rest of us can seeing as how stds are so rampant in the gay community not to mention their heightened promiscuity. I'm not being stupid so much as you're being an idiotic Panthophobiac. I've never used a condom and I don't have an STD. Unless you're picking up random strangers a condom should never really be recommended.

Edit: Then again I'm kind of reckless, maybe you do have a point.

To start off, you are homophobic.

Second off, it seems you've somehow deluded yourself into believing that people are gay because they've slept with the same sex, rather than they're gay because they're attracted to the same sex.

Pretty much all your questions come down to your belief in that fallacy. You ask LT why choosing a forum as being your only form of communication is any different than not being able to chose who you're attracted to, when the answer is in the question. You make remarks about my sex life when I've never slept with a guy but, shock horror, have slept with girls.

This isn't complicated or secret, all it takes is a very basic understanding of homosexuality to know this. You harp on about it so much that I'm presuming you know this, and are therefore just doing what you do best: Trolling to get a reaction.

Simply put, being crippingly obsessed with the internet is something that you can change about yourself. You can't fix gay.

Also, Merkuri, if you say any of the following words in this topic it will result in an infraction: "gay" "homosexual" "condom" "pregnancy" "STD" "homophobe"

you can say that last one, but only if it's in a sentence similar to this: "I am finally ready to admit that I am a homophobe"

you should probably also stay away from talking about females and other minorities as well.

Welp, I was just going to post "inb4merkurigetsbannedagain."

On-topic: bought a new desktop and monitor to replace my laptop that is slowly dying. Unfortunately, the screen of the monitor has a scratch on it, so I'll have to return it tomorrow, and get a new one. :c

I woke today and I think I was catching a cold. God my eyes burn and my nose is starting to get stuffy. This is stupid because I only got sick 3 weeks ago. I don't understand. Ever since the new school year started I've been getting sick every month where last year I only got sick like once or twice

God wtf is happening to my metabolism because this is angering me to a great extent

EDIT:

God Luigitoilet is boss lol

Don't go throwing labels on me. I am not a homophobe. You need to understand that not everyone who does not support homosexuality is against it, there is such a thing as being neutral. I have no problem with homosexuals or homosexuality, what I do have a problem with is the sensitivity to which moderators hold homosexuality with. We should be free to criticize it just like anything else.

Also you're the one deluding yourself and ignorantly trying to demonize me. I am well aware that homosexuality refers to more than just sex, it is attraction in fact you can't even find a post of mine that contradicts this notion. And in case you think you answered my question about differentiating between the groups you haven't. You simply mentioned a fallacy you presume I have committed, in fact much of your post seems pretty useless.

Lastly what annoys me is how you seem to believe that everyone who doesn't support homosexuality is trolling. This may come as shock to you but there are many people in the world and America(especially the south) who disagree with your lifestyle. They aren't trying to upset you or ''troll'' you, it's simply the way they feel. And it would be really cool if you could respect the opinions of others when they differ form you own.

Eye surgeries are the worst / scariest in my opinion. The fear of going blind is constantly there, and it is really a downer for the whole duration of the aftereffects of and during the surgery. Many years ago, I had two muscles removed from my left eye in attempt to lessen the spasms in the eye due to my nystagmus (which is constant, uncontrollable shaking in the eyes). I don't quite remember it luckily, but if I were at my current state / age, it would make me horribly uncomfortable to have the thought of any surgery on my eyes.

Good luck with the healing.

I'm on my phone and for some reason this wont let me multi-quote, so i'll just quote what bothers me the most seeing as though talking to Merk is about as productive as banging my head off a brick wall.

Oh, and I thought I'd make this clear.

NO HOMOSEXUALITY talk in this thread unless it is explicitly related to a personal problem of yours.

From now on, this goes for everybody.
Instead of doing this you could just roomban Merk. No one causes a problem but him, and he can clearly just loophole around that rule by commenting on other peoples problems if they mention anything gay. Don't punish everyone because of one person, punish that person.
