have you ever been really sleep-deprived AND gotten high on a first date?
the result is oversharing all of the terrible stories from your life and all of your ridiculous thoughts about harry potter.
no boundaries. i don’t recommend it. (but apparently she’s into crazy, so i’m still getting a second date).

Doctor Whovians 12 years, 4 months agoHeard a rumor we might not be having normal amount of episodes next year…

x_x

there will be a christmas special though, i believe, so thats good news.
-
Yeah, I’ve heard that rumor. Basically, it’s The Internets getting all freaked out over nothing (yet). All we know for sure is that there are 14 episodes commissioned (13 regular episodes plus 1 Christmas special, just like every season). We don’t know when or how they’re going to be aired. It’s too soon for that info to be out anyway!

Got called sir for the third time in three days, plus as I was walking out of Target I had people drive by me with their car windows down and the woman said loudly as they passed: “Oh that is NOT a DUDE!!”
-
So I’m at 3 ‘Sirs’ and a ‘That’ in 72 hours.
-
i feel your pain.Today I was walking with my friend and this old guy was like, “i like your blue hair…person.” and then he told my friend “i like your black hair too, young lady.” so now i’m a “…person.”
-
lol, not just a person but a ‘…person’. At least he acknowledged your humanity. ‘That’ has an inanimate object ring to it IMO. Blue hair is fun :)
-
yeah, i guess that’s true. i hate when people take away each other’s humanity with a word.

Just got a ‘Hello, young man’ this morning. Awesome.
I just rolled with it. I’m not sure how I got away with it since I have a girl’s voice, but whatevs.

I’m openly/obviously gay and have been all of my life…so I should be comfortable around lesbians. But I’m not. I’m not shy around anyone else, strangers love me, I have a pretty strong social net of straight people, my family and I are very close. I just seem to repel other lesbians. What am I doing wrong?
-
The possibility of romantic or sexual interest makes you nervous?
-
Nope. I wish it was that simple. I’ve only really liked two lesbians, romantically/sexually. Both times I felt as comfortable with them as I do with all of my straight friends. It was easy, like we were already connected. We’re still friends, but we live in different cities.
Most of the time, when I meet other lesbians, I’m not even…[Read more]
-
Personally, the higher the stakes, the harder it is for me. The more I like someone and want to impress them, the less impressive I am because I clam up! It’s a curse. So whether it’s my boss, a beautiful girl or someone who I think is much cooler/smarter/more interesting than me, I struggle. When I don’t care about someone’s opinion, I am able to…[Read more]
-
I can see how that logic might come into play, but that’s not me. I’m pretty much the same person to everyone I meet. I’m weird in that I really like me, I’d totally hang out with me. I’m pretty sure other people will like me too, it’s just a matter of meeting them. Besides, at my age, I don’t place too much value on relationships that haven’t…[Read more]

If there was ever a group for me to join! Lately, my anxiety has made work weird. (I’ve worked here about 2 months. New city, new state… moved here for job.) I know these (straight) girls at work think I hate them, and I don’t, I just don’t want to go to bars with them because as the group states, I experience CRIPPLING SOCIAL ANXIETY and especia…[Read more]

i’m glad you feel better having said it. sometimes we just need to rant at the universe and it makes things better. :)

good on you, muffin. keep on keeping on and do what you can.
-
I am sorry to hear you are having such a rough time of it. You have endure a lot with moving to a new city, etc. I can clearly see why these things can up your anxiety. I don’t think the girl should have said, ” We think you hate us.” Just because your not interested in going to a bar doesn’t mean you dislike the person that asked, sometimes…[Read more]

Okay, I need to shake off this crippling shyness ASAP and find some local gay friends because I want to go to a Pride Festival and how sad and pathetic would I be just wandering around on my lonesome, unable to really feel like I’m a part of the festival since I won’t know a single soul. :( I am sick of feeling so isolated.
-
I bet you could find a group that’s going to and insert yourself into it somehow. There’s got to be an online community or group organizing or partaking. Not sure how big your city is. But even if you break off with them because you’re not meshing or your uncomfortable, at least you gave it a go.
-
My biggest problem is that I live in a small town (seriously small, only about 250 people) and the nearest big city with any sort of gay community is almost an hour away, so making friends there is doubly hard. Going through the online groups is a great suggestion. Thanks!
-
-
See, this is a solution that might work for me. I do have straight friends who would probably go with me, and I think any awkwardness would be worth it as long as I wasn’t all alone in a big crowd (it makes my stomach knot up just to think about it). That’s awesome about the drag queens at the Colosseum — sounds like a fun time!! :D
-
Maybe I’m weird, but I totes would have grabbed one of those flyers and made it into a souvenir. :p
-
i went to my first pride parade last year with a straight friend. her brother is gay. it was not weird at all.
just find a friend and ask them to go with. it’s a road trip, a parade, glitter, rainbows, and omg GAY PEOPLE! it’s so very nice and life affirming.

I was with a group of my straight girl friends (oh who am I kidding, I have no queer community, all my girl friends are straight) and for some reason the conversation turned to my sexuality (again who the fuck am I kidding. They are fascinated. They think I can give them insights into the minds of men. wtf?)
One of them asked, “So, Kat, which…[Read more]
-
no, they don’t get you. being the token lesbian is no fun when you’re the only gay lady they’ve ever met.
-
Being the token lesbian is extra fun when the female friends of your friends stare suspiciously at social events after they’ve consumed alcohol, then creep on your straight best friend because it’s not gay if they try to sleep with her. WOMEN ARE SCARY CONFUSING.
-
I can’t remember who told me this, but a straight friend of mine told me she was ‘straight in the way all straight women are straight, which actually means just a teeny bit gay.’
And that teeny bit of gay just comes RIGHT up to the surface when alcohol is involved, doesn’t it?-
holy smokes, i am SO saving your friends’ quote– genius.
-
…I’d guess I know a lot of girls like her then, haha!
-
The expression I’ve heard is ‘three-beer queer’. They’re bored and curious and the boundaries are down, and through the magic of alcohol they’re not responsible for their actions come morning.
Which. I’m actually okay with? Because I am totally fine with people using the empirical method to determine how straight they are. It just gets really…[Read more]

I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY GIRLS ASK THIS QUESTION. what answer do they want? they have a problem with every answer.
-
the only answer i have ever had any success with is ‘yes’. but was also the bicurious experiment of several of my straight girl friends in high school. which is not really as it sounds like. (it was kind of awesome at the time. but not as awesome as it could have been.)
-
“Yes” to the question of “which one of us would you do?”
If I interpreted this correctly it is hilarious, brilliant and usable.

My wife & I were asked by a wretched straight-girl roommate, “Do you guys in your lesbianic theory, think I’m hot?” I had an easy out by replying “I’m really only attracted to butch women.” The wife had to fumble with some excuse that she just wasn’t her type.
Why do they ask that? Do they ask their straight guy friends the same question? What…[Read more]
