  1. Worst & best thing about the drunk is that he never remembers it. Or so he'll claim.
  2. There are different interpretations for what entails as a "drone" but generally speaking, I'd much rather die at 50 as somebody then live to 100 as nobody
  3. I wouldnt call that being douchey If you don't feel comfortable being upfront, why are you trying to force yourself to be?
  4. Congrats! Also...can I be the Godfather?
  5. LOL classic
  6. Some of my interests easily go hand-in-hand with gayness but I hate to think about them as being directly related. It may or may not be coincidental for there to be things that gay people tend to enjoy more like theater or whatnot but they're not exclusive to gays and it goes back to labeling which is more silly than not. Now whether or not I'd be interested in the same things were I to be straight is something to wonder but it's not gonna change anything. So anyways, I like chick flicks and Glee just because I do, I really don't like to think of it as; I like chick flicks and Glee because I'm homo. In regard to what you said about expressing yourself...that's just a personality. I don't think you're suppressing or hiding just because you don't like to talk about your interests. Many people don't. Being open doesn't have to mean being forward.
  7. I liked Dave Lieberman's shows when they were on. Maybe they still are but I don't think I've caught them. Top chef is interesting. Honestly, my favorite food shows would have to be those where someone travels all over the world and tries out all sorts of local food that we don't see often if at all. I'd love to do that myself one day
  8. It was ok. It has it's funny moments but I wasn't digging all the showtunes. I liked the show much better when it was mainly radio music. And yea it's too bad he's not on it anymore. But Finns still looking sharp. I still hate Kurt
  9. It's funny to point out that there are quite a few a-list actresses who have no problem admitting to being bisexual or at least sexually liberated and it hasn't affected their careers. But this goes on into another topic of double standards with sexuality between men/women. The way I see the film industry is that it utilizes resources the best way it can for a given purpose when making movies just like businesses and people do in everyday life. What I mean is that since filing a role requires finding a person who can best represent that character, you need to find an actor/actress who,all things considered, can play that part best. When a movie calls for a black character, you'd first look at black actors/actresses who can play the part and since there aren't a short supply of them nowadays, there is no need to impersonate a non-black to play the role of a black character. Should there be an extreme shortage of black actors/actresses (or blacks interested in taking the part) then it could be considerable to choose a non-black to play the part. Of course, you'd have to compare how worthwhile is it to use a high-credibility non-black actor to play a black man vs. say a black man who has no acting skills playing a black man solely because of his ethnicity. In 1700s China, women were prohibited from acting making all female roles being played out by men in costume and this carried on for quite a while. Theater continued. It didn't disappear or collapse, and people still watched because as is the focus of the whole point, people take what's best, all things considered, and if that's not available, they go with 2nd best and so on. With CGI these days, I see no problem in turning anybody into anybody/anything. We already turn human being into creatures of all sorts, what would be the difference of turning a Caucasian into a African American for the sake of a movie (should there be no black actors) where actors/actresses are suppose to shed all traces of real life representation of themselves anyways? As far a gay/straight actors/roles goes. The same applies. You've already pointed out the obvious that there are little to no high-credibility gay actors in the film industry. When you are making a movie that need the support of high profiled actors but have gay roles, you either impersonate straight actors to play them or use openly gay b-list actors who would have a far lower chance of stirring interest in the movie. Do you wonder how Brokeback Mountain would have done if instead of Heath Ledger and Jake G, they used openly gay/bisexual actors who were not as famous? And even for a regular movie, there aren't many gay actors out there to choose from.....butttt yea like it's already been said...we need more gay actors and not the stereotypical ones. I think to Glee with Kurt and Blaine. Blaine is the relatively normal acting, masculine chill guy who happens to be gay where as Kurt is the annoying flaming bitch. And as expected, the guy playing Blaine is straight in real life and guy playing Kurt is gay. It's kinda funny.
  10. Have you ever watched those youtube videos of guys playing gay chicken or things like that? Once upon a time I loved those. (still kinda do)
  11. I'm just the opposite....2 straight guys who suck face on camera for the sake of the job is sooooo hooooootttttt Also, what makes you think straight make outs in movies involve people who are "into it"?
  12. Just kidding
  13. What you two said But then...isn't acting the point of acting? If you look to actors/actresses as celebs who partly have responsibilities to the masses, then sure it would be nice to have a coupla real LGBT celebs to not frown upon, but in terms of their jobs, it's kinda the point of acting to play yourself as someone you're not.
  14. Good choice getting outta...uhhh....what's it called...Waxaaaaa....huh?
  15. Pshhhh....those little bits hanging there can last you a few good wipes.
  16. "The signs on bathroom doors don't say "people with penises" and "people with vaginas." LMAO
  17. Make a list...write down everything that's causing anxiety or bothering you at the moment and/or longterm and then work on your perception of them either by thinking about something positive about each of them or just coming to terms and relax....easier said than done of course but just seems like a good way to go and definitely better than drinking your problems away cuz they don't go away that way. ie...I feel anxiety about school every once in a while...but then I write down a priority list, think about what I need to do, if I can't do anything about it, shit can it. 1 HW or test isn't gonna break me for life.
  18. Im with Nephy....if you feel like hiring a PI to track your guy....there's something wrong. Address it directly...none of that sneaking business
  19. I get you. Kevin, there's nothing wrong with you or how you're feeling. Most people have been exactly where you are and most people our age are still learning and working their way through a mess of thoughts/emotions. You don't stop growing at 23...or 33 for that matter. If it's being gay you're uncomfortable about, welcome to the club. If it's just insecurity or awkwardness you feel in general, well that's something you will have to take in stride at your own pace, but I see you in a positive light. As far as dying alone...I don't think that's going to happen, and that's not something that need concern. We are social creatures but we inevitably live lives as individuals and you gotta take care of yourself before you can do a good job of taking care of others. Our love lives seem like everything at the moment and I'm not gonna tell you it cannot be or that you ought to think about something else, but I will say that it's one of those things that you can't fully be in control over and its this lack of control that brings anxiety into the equation. As my mom always tells me, "focus on things you do have control over, so when the rest comes, you'll be best prepared". And the rest will come. And f*ck what PluginMatty said, that's horsesh*t.
  20. Dunno why you'd be interested. Actually, I do know
  21. Happy Kevin day!
  22. I think any attempt would be futile cuz your mind's already set
  23. Very witty But lemme ask you something, what would you classify yourself? What's the word for a person who thinks he just made a funny by inserting himself into a conversation not meant for him especially when said person has been asked repeatedly in the past to strictly refrain from making any sort of comment to or about, in this case, me? Should I buy a stronger mosquito spray? I think any attempt would be futile cuz your mind's already set
