Just watched the Golden Globes. Rami Malek was robbed. Jon Hamm was great in Mad Men, but Malek's performance in Mr Robot was breathtaking.

I feel sorry for blokes. I went out both friday and saturday night last weekend, and I could have got laid both times (multiple times actually). Friday night was just to the local pub with the girls, and there's a guy there that was getting cosy last month when I was there, so it was no surprise.

Saturday night was different though. My g'f and I went out for dinner then went to a few different cocktail bars. I decided to do an experiment. I just made eye contact with everyone (men and women) and smiled. This led to a very entertaining night for me and my friend. We had lots of fun conversations with lots of people, and neither of us needed to have gone home alone (although we both did).

I'm only whoring this around because I was actually feeling a bit down about myself and my ability to get a mans attention, and I was pleased to discover that it took minimal effort to get it. It did me the world of good.

Oh, and the reason I feel sorry for blokes is that really, in the end, the woman gets to make the choice most of the time, and more often than not, I suspect it's a negative ghost rider.

Told ya so.

Mav wasn't too impressed with my story. He said it made him feel uncomfortable. haha

xoxoxoBruce · 02-29-2016, 11:53 PM

That's understandable.

Aliantha · 03-01-2016, 01:06 AM

haha...yep. More or less, except I wasn't telling him about getting laid or anything. Only that some blokes still like the look of me. You'd think that'd be ok wouldn't you?

It's not what you were saying, it's what he was imagining that shook him.

Hector's Driving test took years off my life today. He's a great driver but was nervous and completely fucked up the maneuvering skills test you have to pass before you go out on the road. three traffic cones died. Bizarrely, they let him pass that bit and we went out on the road where he did great and passed with flying colors so is now licensed. But we let him take it in the manual/stick tiny Fit because it he prefers the small car for maneuvering. He drives it well, it made sense. But nerves and unpracticeable situations put paid to that cunning plan. Then on the road test, he had to deal with dickheads who bully little cars but leave big tanks like the Grand Caravan (the other car) alone (I drive both regularly -the difference in how other road users treat you is incredible). I didn't think about this aspect of allowing him to test in the Fit.

the tester told him to change lanes to the right. She wanted him to be ready to turn, but he'd never been on that road before and didn't know that, and she'd just made him change lanes to the left. All he knew is that two cars in the next lane were determined not to let him in, so he tried to wait for them to go past. Tester eventually got frustrated and said "you need to move over NOW". cnut yes, it's real life driving, but in real life, you also don't bother about cutting people off or making seriously late lane changes or going past and taking another way if necessary.

I'd be concerned about the examiner failing me, if I got to aggressive with traffic, and try to do everything smooth a seamlessly like a driver ed movie. But we all know that's fucking near impossible in the real world. At least he got through it OK, good for him.
Give 'em Hec, Helltor.

Excellent! Well done.

Too bad Maggie doesn't come around much any more. You could have a nice chat with her.
