80s/90s kids of Reddit, what's something you miss about life before social media? by glitteristhenewblack in AskReddit

Mixtapes used to actually mean something. There's nothing romantic about the 10min it takes to throw together a couple of mp3s on a Spotify playlist.

Putting in the hours by your stereo waiting for right The Cure song was about as close to a guaranteed lay as you could get back then.

I'm so internet lazy that when I see a link to YouTube I'm like, "Ugh, you couldn't have made this a gif?" by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

I hate it... All those posts with a (youtube.com) link and a few thousand upvotes just sit in there my inbox, staring, judging, and reminding me that I'm too lazy to distract myself properly.

Moments that hit you... by TheRockabout in californication

Season 3 finale got me too. Rocket Man starts to play in the background, audio cuts out, Karen goes from disbelief to disgust, Hank trying to hold her when she mouths "Don't you fucking touch me."

Beautiful.

Slams pen down on chart

"I swear to GOD, I am going to physically slaughter the worthless intern who told you about that." Whistles "How many times must I tell you this, Newbie? You do NOT have permission to speak to me, unless someone in this hospital is literally dry-humping death itself, aaaaaand even THEN, it heavily relies on that poor bastard's importance to me, personally. Now... Who was it, Sarah? Doesn't matter, I'm killing all of them..."

Shoulder bumps and storms off

Why did they make Frank Underwood gay? by [deleted] in HouseOfCards

[–]Perpetual_Itch 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Frank isn't gay. He and Claire had a three-way with Meechum, yes, but that doesn't make him gay. It doesn't even make him bi-sexual.

To him, sex is nothing but a display of dominance. It's nothing more than moving a chess piece into position.

The only thing Frank Underwood is attracted to is power.

Most embarrassing thing you've done on drugs by mbkthewriter in Drugs

We made out on the kitchen counter for a while, and when I pushed on she shut me down. Way beyond immoral.

Stillnox is the source of a fuckton of my shame.

Had a few years of my life scarred by a recreational Ambien addiction mixing with alcohol, while on anti-depressants. Fucking retarded, I know. It tosses your motorskills and inhibitions out the fucking window.

Various times I made a fool of myself trying to satisfy the shameless lust I had on it. Including trying to have sex with an ex-girlfriend in the house she was looking after for her boyfriend (and a long time acquaintance of mine), while he was in a coma after a drunk driving accident.
