I've never had a girl ask me that, but I'm sure the more regular ones are thinking it. It is just annoying to me that people ask it. It is really none of your business, and why the fuck is it even relevant? You're the asshole who came and started talking to me during my dinner. If I had a beard, was larger, or more overtly masculine I guarantee it wouldn't happen. What is most annoying is that it is so impolite to even ask that question. It shows a complete lack of culture and manners. I was at a strip club one time and my buddy got asked by another dude if I was gay even after I got a lap dance. It is outstanding to me. I feel like it is just these dudes having trouble processing the fact that they are attracted to me or something. Stupid fucking Americans man...

I was eating dinner at a steakhouse. I ended up sitting at the bar, because they were so busy. After a moment a guy came up and leaned between me and the next person to order a drink. He was mid-fifties with a five o'clock shadow. He had a worn look about him like he worked a blue collar job his entire life, and he was average both in dress and appearance. I was ok with his presence until he decided to stay and chat me up after receiving his beverage. He seemed a little drunk but I humored him figuring he was just being social. After a while it was bugging me that he was interrupting me as I was trying to eat dinner. He then proceeded to sit down and continue to talk when the person next to me left. It became more and more apparent that he was plastered, his speech was slurred and his sentences trailed off into a mumble. He prodded me with annoying and awkward questions, and as each new drink slid in front of him, his brain turned more into mush. He began asking the same set of questions over and over forgetting he had asked them as soon as they were answered. Sometimes his sentences made no sense at all and I just smiled and nodded secretly hoping he would leave. He remarked at my being good looking and I graciously replied, "thank you". At one point he stopped a woman walking and said, "Hey", and she replied slightly bewildered, "Hello". Later, he put out his hand for me to shake and I extended my hand, but before I could fully grasp it he squeezed uncomfortably as if to challenge me. Sensing aggression I quickly told him he needed to let go. I forgot to mention that at some point he asked me if I am gay. I answered, "no", being rather used to normal people thinking this about me, it didn't phase me much. He had been bothering me so long at this point I wasn't even looking at him but he kept talking and trying to get my attention. Around the thirtieth round of asking the same questions again he more aggressively began asking me repeatedly, "Are you gay? You're gay. Are you gay?". Furious at this point I turned to him and said with my most stern voice, " You need to fuck off!". My hands were shaking from the adrenaline coursing through my veins; My body remembering that feeling moments before a fight when you know that you are going to be forced to defend yourself. He put some distance between us and slid down the bar. I felt relieved that he would no longer be imposing on my dinner and also that I wasn't going to have to fight. To my utter amazement he forgot that it even happened. He slid back over and the same questions began again. He was so obliterated that he forgot that tense moment from just minutes ago. I wasn't even acknowledging his existence anymore. Fortunately, he finished his drink, called a cab, and eventually left. I was almost finished with my steak at this point my dinner basically ruined. All I was left with was a bloody hunk of flesh and the lingering thought of whether he was trying to pick me up or just a clueless, drunk, fool.

Thanks man, its been a couple of months but she hasn't been returning any calls or messages this month.
Funnily enough though as I've been writing this everything has mysteriously returned to normal, so could have been an honest mistake. Now I feel a bit of a dick overreacting but have the FWP of whether or not to question her why I haven't heard anything this month. The FWPs never end :/
Most likely she was seeing someone else during that period. I hate to break it to you. Although, with the short period of time you have been dating she still kind of has every right to. In my opinion, don't ask because you don't want to hear the answer and it's likely she'll be inclined to lie to you, which will only hurt you more when you find out the truth. I think you should just be happy that things are back the way you want them, because if you make a fuss of it you might scare her off.

speaking of, has no one posted this yet?
I think that is floating around the Aphex subforum. I play my Tuss vinyl at 33 rpm now just for kicks.

That Pet Cemetary scene fucked me up for a few years when I first saw it. Gross...

Well, usually the only reason I buy a certain brand is because the clothes fit me well and the style is agreeable. If you don't need clothes there is really no reason to buy them. I usually only buy stuff when I need it.
-
Going with the "well-fitting clothes look fashionable" idea, are more expensive clothes in general better fitting or is it best to buy something cheaper and pay a tailor (or someone else? who?) to alter them to fit you better?
Well, tailoring like one item isn't going to be so bad, but in general you want to buy clothes that fit properly. Part of that is being in decent shape. Generally designer clothes are better fitting in my experience than regular clothes, but it all has to do with what you want to look like. Usually the key is to buy certain items that might be a little expensive and then fill in your wardrobe with less expensive items. I'm about to get this nice jacket I bought tailored because it is too big for me now. I'm hoping that it isn't too pricey.

HOLY LOL!

holy crap this is going to haunt me.

wasn't my post worth anything? :(
edit: :'(
I just don't think that is a possibility.

just FYI since the Academy awards are being decided on right now (high quality ) screener copies of almost every major movie that hasn't been to DVD yet have leaked on the net including Django and the Hobbit. I'd imagine Lincoln and the Master are too although i haven't checked
ha...Yeah, I've seen really good copies of Django and the Hobbit recently as well as Jack Reacher, Seven Psychopaths, and Total Recall.

I hope I don't get my ass kicked for that picture. I'm not sure if there's any dignity in dressing up as a bee and getting shaved by a man.
Why is there honey in your bathroom?
i shave in the shower and then i use body wash to make my skin smooth.although sometimes i skip shaving and use an epilator if i'm feeling particularly masochistic.
I found an epilator in the closet as a kid and plugged it in then touched it to my arm. I never touched it again after that.

I love playing League of Legends. I found the coolest bunch of kids I play with every night, but playing solo-random is great too.
Dota 2 is better and harder.

trust your gut. but I'd say this, if you do move in, make sure you are renting. buying something together could be very complicated if things don't work out.
and if things do work out, and you get married...dont crush on a woman you work with 12 years from now...
Not sure if best to follow Jules advice

Dude, you are in your late twenties. If you can't trust your instincts at this point then you've wasted 20+ years living. If you love her go for it. Life is wayyyyy too short to be cautious about happiness. Even if it ends poorly it would have been much better to spend the time with her you enjoyed than not ever have that time together at all. Oh fucking well if it doesn't work out. Then you move back to your country and start over.

Sort of related. What is the sample from Box Energy when he says, "When I took that E I was like....I'mma do this again....I'mma do this again."

Zissou Couture?

Also, after listening to these songs again along with Andy's and SP's comments I'm pretty sure this is another Aphex Twin project. If it isn't indeed some Spanish kid they've never met or whatever. Really though the fact that hey are hiding the identity is a good indicator that it is Aphex.
And Andy saying the melodies are too weak for Tom. If that doesn't say AFX, I don't know what will...
;-p
Basically the main difference innit? :D

anyone ever use reason? does Steinvord sound like something that could have been done with reason?
I use reason a lot.
And no I would have to say definitely not possible on reason, specifically the drums.
Steinvord sounds like something done by Tom on Tom's equipment circa 2000/2001 IE go plastic era.
The programming is the only thing about this that seems easily achievable in Reason. All you do is drop in samples and chop and stretch. The thing that really sticks out about these songs is the use of effects. Some of these effects are standard in Reason, but others would have to be creative routing and techniques that only a highly skilled and creative person would know. If I had to wager I would say if it was done in Reason it was also used in conjunction with other programs. Also, the mixing is spot on. It probably also has some hardware synth work as well or at least samples of real synths.
Not to mention one of the songs is possibly named after a synth in Reason. (Malstrom - Maelstrom)
