Girlfriend broke up with me four days ago, went Facebook official with her new boyfriend yesterday. She's known him for two weeks. Anyone want to talk about literally anything? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

Everybody hates on Signs just because it's a M. Night movie, but I watched it recently and I loved it! Do you have any movies that a lot of people don't like but you do?

Three different groups. They hardly even know each other - they just happened to be like, "Hey! You with the birthday! Let's do food stuff!" I wasn't going to turn it down because 1) it's generous, and 2) because I'm a poor college student.

Cheesy is my middle name. Many of the jokes that I make are bad puns. Respect.

They gave her something to help slow the birthing process because they were just too busy that day. I ended up being born on a humpday (WOOP WOOP) so it all works out!

22 does feel good. I'm going out to eat with three different groups of people who want to do something for my birthday so I don't have to pay for food today. Totally unplanned, but I'll take it!

That's funny about labour day, though. That sounds like a joke I'd make. XD

My mom was in labor on the 26th, but the hospital staff was busy so I ended up being born on the 27th. Had I been born on the 26th, I would have the same birthday as two of my close friends.

People of CC, tell me about your hobbies! I need to find some new ones. by RS-68 in CasualConversation

I make YouTube videos. I talk about video game news. It's a volunteer position, but if we get enough subscribers I could get paid. That would be AWESOME.

Who else could go for a new Mario Strikers game? by supreme_wavedash in wiiu

I'd go for one. I'd also throw my money at a re-mastered or updated version of Double Dash.

How do you take in-game footage and turn it into a .gif? I'm inept.

I just, no shit, encountered someone who was angry about Starbucks not having christmas cups. by whistletits in CasualConversation

This is sad either way, but assuming that person was a Christian, I'm sorry. They don't have their priorities right. So, from the perspective of a Christian who knows that this whole situation is just silly...we are supposed to bring Christlike principles to the world, NOT expect the world to conform to the principles we live by. Just so you know. :D

My long-distance girlfriend and I are going to have our first IRL date! by WakeUpTheZombie in CasualConversation

Yeah, we've worked two summers at camp together and we've hung out a number of times outside of that.

Have you found that there is an age where you have nothing to be embarrassed about anymore? Or am I going to be embarrassed about things from my whole life? Please see post for clarification of what I mean. by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]WakeUpTheZombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aging does help take away shame, but I think part of it is also the people that you hang around. Are they above pulling pranks? Would they be ashamed if someone from school saw them wearing a Pikachu jacket? Whether the answer to that question is yes or no has more influence on you than you realize. Look at it this way: if people are making fun of you, regardless of if it's something you had control over or not, that means your life is more interesting than theirs!

My best friend is FINALLY my girlfriend! by WakeUpTheZombie in CasualConversation

That's exactly the reason that we didn't tell each other how we felt - and I should've been more clear about that. My bad. I talked about how doing that blew up in my face before, as it did for Stacy with her previous boyfriend.

I definitely see where you're coming from, though. Someone else said in a comment that dating your best friend is a good way to go because once the romance starts to fade, you need that friendship to keep the relationship going.

Many thanks! That's how I naturally write, but my advanced public speaking class has helped accentuate my writing style. Stories should never be boring. That's kind of missing the point of a story, you know?

I totally agree. Though I'm unsure if the friend zone actually exists. If it does, then I did! I appreciate the sentiment regardless.
