Hazarding Online Dating (AKA WHY AM I DOING THIS?)

So, I've recently started really hazarding the online world of gay dating.

It's been an interesting experience.

I'd like to share with you the following conversation:

Random Guy Online: whats up????

Me: Not much. You?

Random Guy Online: not a whole lot just at home hanging!!!! no plans tonite???

Me: Not really, I don't think. A friend is supposed to come over, but I don't think he's gonna make it.

Random Guy Online:that kind a suck!!! sow what are you thinking to do now???

Me: Probably watch a movie and get to bed, unless he shows up or I find something better to do.

Random Guy Online: u want to meet???

Me: Can I ask why everything ends in three punctuation marks?

Random Guy Online: nothing in particular, just a habit that i have........ i think making things in group of three is nice.

Me: Ha ha. Are you proposing something?

Random Guy Online: not really, like what i said its a habit!!!

Me: Got it. It sounded like a threesome pun.

Random Guy Online: lol!!! want to meet???

Me: Well, I wanna give my friend the benefit of the doubt first and see.

Also, the punctuation is a bit intense.

OH MY GOD.
Mind you, this guy was cute!

So, now, the same conversation, with commentary:

Random Guy Online: whats up???? Four question marks? This should have been the first tip off to RUN AWAY.

Me: Not much. You? Being corteous.

Random Guy Online: not a whole lot just at home hanging!!!! Again, four? What the hell? no plans tonite???Hey, we're moving in a good direction. Down to three. Tonite? Really? This guy is 25.

Me: Not really, I don't think. A friend is supposed to come over, but I don't think he's gonna make it. Honest. Nothing too exciting.

Random Guy Online:that kind a suck!!! Still three...Wow. It does kind a suck. sow what are you thinking to do now??? Wait, am I being called a pig? (3)

Me: Probably watch a movie and get to bed, unless he shows up or I find something better to do. Not entirely true. At this point, I'm trying to end the conversation and be done.

Random Guy Online: u want to meet??? AHH!!!

Me: Can I ask why everything ends in three punctuation marks? Avoid question.

Random Guy Online: nothing in particular, just a habit that i have........ i think making things in group of three is nice. Okay, I think that's a sex pun. Funny.

Me: Ha ha. Are you proposing something? See comment above.

Random Guy Online: not really, like what i said its a habit!!! God, he's dumb too! And they're back!!!

Me: Got it. It sounded like a threesome pun. Maybe it was a joke, and the sarcasm just didn't work.

Random Guy Online: lol!!! want to meet??? How old are you? Thirteen?

Me: Well, I wanna give my friend the benefit of the doubt first and see. What this really means: I WILL DO ANYTHING IN MY POWER TO AVOID YOU.

Also, the punctuation is a bit intense. Closing arguments, prosecutor?

So, really, why do I even try?

Marrying : Gays as Killing : Jews ? (AKA Conservative Logic)

(Thanks to BoxTurtleBulletin for the tip.)


So, I just thought I'd reiterate what this article said. The Campaign for Children and Families released the following statement, urging California Court Clerks to refuse to issue gay couples marriage licenses:

"Ask your county clerk if they were a Nazi officer during WWII and had been ordered to gas the Jews, would they? At the Nuremberg trials, they would have been convicted of murder for following this immoral order."

Just thought I'd point out that the mass murder of millions of Jews is very much equivalent to the civil uniting of two consenting adults in a legal contract.

Reasons Why Supporting Some African Political Ideals Are Bad. (AKA Some things should not be multicultural)

Africa is not the most pro-gay continent on our green earth. As a matter of fact, Northern Africa and the Middle East are the two most violently homophobic places about which I've read. Normally, I would be appalled by the ignorant hate, and open violent threats, which I am. However, today's current complaint has little to do with homophobia, but with witch hunts.

Yesterday in Kenya, eleven elderly people were dragged from their homes, burned at the stake, and set their houses on fire. Why? They were accused of being witches. Honest, real witches.

Public officials denied it as a common occurrence, but did issue a statement asking the locals to not take what they believe is justice into their own hands.

Now, I am as open to other cultures as the next person, but burning witches at the stake?

Of course, G.W. has already sent Condoleezza Rice over to nicely ask Kenya to stop being violently active, but very little has happened in result. Kenya refused to comment as to whether or not it threatened to "call the US a meanie" if it did not stop interfering in international affairs.

Introductory Post (AKA Blog 101)

So, I have a lot of opinions, and am egotistical enough to think other people want to hear them / read them / listen to them.

Here, I plan to focus on Gay Rights Issues, Pop Culture, Politics, School, and things which annoy or bother me. I also reserve the right to talk about whatever else I want because this blog is mine.

Also, I reserve the right to not update on a regular basis, and on the other hand, to write multiple pieces a day. Why? See logic above. It's really at my own discretion.

So, I hope you enjoy, and with that, away we go.
