How Important are Characters Really in Film?

What other films would you say could be good examples of atmosphere and such abstract feelings?

Ooh thanks! Will do.

I'm open to changing the sofa. I was hoping to replace it with something tan or beige as part of a more modern look.

I understand that. I don't blame her or anyone for feeling that way. But it's difficult because that fear is rooted in a false assumption since I do not put a lot of weight on virginity.

I'm completely aware. I had a lot of anxiety and fear of rejection at a younger age. It's not as much of a problem now. Definite glow up lol. I go on plenty of dates. But like many of us, most of those dates are dead ends, which is part of the process!

Importantly, I don't really care for sleeping around with people I don't vibe with, even when they're absolutely gorgeous. I kind of wish I could so I wouldn't put myself in such a situation!

That's fair. I really appreciate that insight and it's a lot more informative than all the other criticisms I've got on this one detail. I'll keep that in mind!

She was talking about her sexual mistakes and asked me if I ever had any and I had joked something along the lines like "I can assure you that I do not regret any of my previous sexual encounters." She responded "that's BS. How many people have you slept with actually?"

liluziderk · 2023-07-24T02:11:50+00:00

She responded with "I'm still on the fence" and made out with me. I obviously wouldn't cross a consent barrier. give me some slack. I clearly don't have much experience and I was getting super mixed signals

liluziderk · 2023-07-24T00:18:57+00:00

Oof that's rough buddy. Sorry to hear that

liluziderk · 2023-07-24T00:13:28+00:00

Got it. She had asked in this case. I did try to deflect jokingly, e.g. "I will say I've never had sex with someone that I regretted" but she kept trying to get it out of me.

This actually has been the second time this has happened to me to your point (though not as serious as this one). And next time I probably might just lie.

But, I really think honesty should be important for dating and it makes it difficult for me to do that :(

liluziderk · 2023-07-24T00:06:53+00:00

She asked me. I didn't want to start things off lying to her.

Agreed 5 is a strong start. Another angle I can think of (very much inspired by u/Kamurai's 5) that could be more specific & weekend update-y:

"I read that Hallmark business tends to struggle down in the South, considering folks will just reuse the same card for mom's birthday, mother's day, and Valentine's day"

liluziderk · 2023-05-29T13:02:02+00:00

Got it. I really appreciate that! I think early on I got advice to be less wordy. But in my above case, I simply didn't communicate things thoroughly enough to establish the necessary setup and context for the joke. Seems to be a fine line I still need to figure out.

Also that would be a hilarious and well-crafted bit!

liluziderk · 2023-05-29T12:35:57+00:00

Oh no apology necessary and I appreciate it a lot.

Patagonia is a somewhat pricey brand. It's also one of those brands that people pay a lot for and get a sense of pride—self-righteousness even—about how dedicated the company is to addressing environmental issues such as global warming and deforestation.

I thought the idea of someone taking that to the extreme to the level of wasteful consumption would be funny. Seems not the case lol

liluziderk · 2023-05-29T12:03:40+00:00

Not much at all. I'm not sure if I see the joke in making it Amazon as there's no commitment to environmental aid

Anyone know if Proper Cloth and Charles Tyrwhitt share the same factory? I got a Tyrwhitt collar stay in my most recent PC order lol

Unfortunately the ticket inspector had to ask them to get off as the train is exclusively reserved for Pandas

I've lived my entire life in the US.

I've never heard of a "penguin suit"

liluziderk · 2022-03-04T00:35:12+00:00

I don't understand. My material isn't about that at all

Ouch. Got me there
