Should we be blaming the older generations for our problems and making excuses? Absolutely not. But I'm sorry, the 1981 economy that some of you inherited was not the same as the late 2000s-early 2010s one we inherited. We got by far the shit end of the stick comparatively.

Maybe you should treat yourself to something special.

Wow, that sucks.

When I was in my early and mid teens, I couldn't wait to get the hell out of the youthful stage and into the more stable mode of adulthood, aka past 30. Now, at 20, I wish I could stay in my late teens/early 20s forever. I'll admit, its kind of nice having very few responsibilities and not having to worry about having a plan and the ability to be completely spontaneous. Who knows. Maybe when I'm 40 I'll look back on my twenties and be glad that they didn't last forever. I've also come to realize that, in the gay world, turning 30 is like a death sentence. Its seems that as soon as you hit that number, you're no longer sexually viable or "young enough" to be worth being around by the younger, prettier crowd. Many guys my age have a "Nobody over 30 policy", as if older guys have nothing worthwhile to add. Maybe the big reason gay guys are so obsessed with body image is because we want to hold onto that ideal image of youth and beauty.

Happy birthday man!

And thats the name of the game, unfortunately.

Nah, still not worth bringing back those hideous clothes for.

What an extremely in-depth and well thought out post! Unlike those of us who stated very clearly why we believed that, you simply put one of those little angry faces without explaining a thing. Good job.

These morons are now giving social conservatives massive ammo in which to fire away with at the entire gay population. Good job you liberal idiots.

We wouldn't be Americans if we didn't like big things.

Fahrenheit gives you a more accurate description of the temperature. And we are on our way to the third straight 100+ day today. I will be hibernating in my air conditioned room for the remainder of it.

You really gotta admire the ones who can even stand them all day. And its a miracle when they can actually successfully teach them something, lol.

He looks like a colorful popsicle stick. The 70s style should stay in the past, and NEVER be brought back to life.

I've only had one internet crush before. I fell completely head over heels for the guy and was totally infatuated with him before I'd even met him in person. That was almost 3 years ago..... Since, then I've never crushed on anyone. I've met some really chill people here on GA who I would consider friends, but never a crush since that one guy.

Sorry, I disagree. These kids are hardly teenagers. They are a bunch of snot-nosed tweenie-boppers who she is supposed to be keeping in line. She is an older women who should not be bothered by what a 12 year old says and, quite frankly, should be putting them in their place. Their behavior is despicable, but it puzzles me how an adult could let a bunch of middle-schoolers so completely emotionally ruin her. That being said, hopefully now she can just retire so she doesn't have to put up with this shit. And the kids' names are already public information and I hope they get all the public shame they deserve.

What they did was wrong. But an adult should have never let a bunch of pimple-faced middle school shits get to her this much.

Haha, you are tougher then me then.

We rung in the first "official" day of summer with 101 degrees here in New Hampshire. Thank god for air conditioning. This northern boy is an absolute weakling in extreme heat.

Ai Se Eu Te Pego, by Michel Telo. Its a Brazilian "pop-country" song that I first heard when I was in Buenos Aires. When this song came on in the clubs, every single person knew the words to it. Its really catchy.

She Talks To Angels, by Black Crowes. One of the most powerful songs of all time, imo.

He probably wipes his ass with hundred euro bills.

I'm disappointed. I was pulling for the Irish and Croats to pull off the upset, but both lost. And for whatever reason, my cable provider decided to compress the ESPN channel so it was all pixilated and impossible to watch so I could only watch the Italy vs Ireland game. Oh well, I guess I'll pull for Spain now.

My grandpa has a combination of a Brooklyn accent (where he grew up), and a Long Island one (where he's lived since 1950s). I still don't understand what he says sometimes. As for myself, I've been told I have a normal northern accent, like how they speak on tv. New England is famous for its nasally accents, but the only people in New Hampshire who still have those accents are the rednecks and country bumpkins who live in the woods. The vast majority of people here have standard northern accents.
