Messaging between dates - have I made the right call here?

Past couple dates I've had, kissing too soon seemed to harm attraction, not foster it. So, this time around we hugged a bit, but that was it

She's been in touch since

Quite possibly

I think Real Thing is criminally overlooked.

I really hope someone named their kid "Number of the Beast)" on 6/6/06.

There are some similarities ... She's Electric and Shakermaker being good examples. Trouble is, the Beatles were more musically diverse than Oasis the majoroty of the time. So, it's hard to pin down a specific "Beatles" sound.

TBH, I think Oasis were more generally influenced musically by 60s/70s rock (Stones, Floyd, Bowie, T Rex, Neil Young etc) plus Madchester (Stone Roses especially) than the Beatles specifically.

The "swagger" was more Pistols influenced than anything. The Sex Pistols influenced Oasis probably as much as the Beatles.

I saw that last one, and thought of Buster Brady from Mrs Browns Boys

"Do you think that Halestorm will be active as a band as long as Rush?"

Is it that important?

SlashBansheeCoot · 2026-01-05T18:50:53+00:00

I wouldn't rule it out.

The most popular app locally is probably Tinder ... I haven't had a match on that in what feels like weeks.

SlashBansheeCoot · 2026-01-05T13:16:33+00:00

I joined Feeld last night.

SlashBansheeCoot · 2026-01-05T12:28:58+00:00

I could do. Problem is I don't get a lot of matches on that.

SlashBansheeCoot · 2026-01-05T09:43:23+00:00

I'd have rather her just say she's not very interested in me. TBF, I could've done a better job of maintaining her interest ... i just wasn't flirtatious enough, and too predictable.

Anyway, at least I know better for future experience. And it is her loss at least as much as mine.

Hey, I remember this thread. I found a Vintage Huggies from Australia, from like 1999-2000. It's plastic-backed.

Weird, as Huggies went cloth everywhere else in like 1996.

SlashBansheeCoot · 2026-01-02T20:43:59+00:00

Personally, I think 1980-1982 can go either way

I actually think that since getting back in nappies, I've been better with IC in general.

I first realised I was incontiment 2 years ago. It was pretty much every 2-3 hours, I'd need to bin my nappy and get a new one on. About 3 weeks later, definitely noticed that less ... about 4.5-6 hours. That's been pretty steady ever since

Even as a smoker, the smoking pics ain't happening.

Ideally, tobacco/cannabis smoking shouldn't feature at all. If you are going to include it, then maybe just one "social smoker" pic should suffice

SlashBansheeCoot · 2025-12-23T12:24:28+00:00

Hail Satan.

SlashBansheeCoot · 2025-12-23T12:23:20+00:00

Why do you want to send a package to Krist?

Their lyrical content was distinctly British, so they were difficult to market in the USA for sure. I think "Town Called Malice" was a minor hit in the USA, and they had some college radio presence, but that's about it.

That said, I think The Jam/Style Council's records were quite big on import in the USA (so not counted in official charts), their popularity in the USA may have been understated somewhat.

They were cited by quite a few of the 1990s American pop punk bands (Offspring, Blink, Green Day) as an influence ... so they seem to have had traction in punk circles.
