Bout time for me to hit the sack and draw some more comics for my webpage. Or maybe I'll do the comics first and then hit the sack.

hmmm. so many choices.

gnite everyone. I'm out. I'll probably come back tonight and this thread will be 40 pages long, ex-zachary what I was hoping for...

That idea has promise

Sometimes, categorization and generalization are really one in the same though, it's all pigeonholing. The only reason that I generalize is when I'm trying to make a point or I notice something funny about people, I make a category and start sticking people into it. It amuses me and passes the time.

Makes it easier to define what I would "want" in a person too, and a good definition there will hopefully go a long way.

Categorization?

Please don't piss on me if I'm on fire. I can handle it.

What a great thread, half the people in here are stoned.

Feels good to be a guy sometimes!!! Like at 4:30 in the morning at the end of a long shift, x-in out for a minute to go burn one.

Red flags pop up all over in my head.

Dated two in my life and ... well we don't need to talk about the rest right now.

One thought she was the best mommie in the world and her kids were "so smart" and bla blabla bla bla. Complete waste of my time, months and months that I'll never get back.

The other used to say how much of a hassle her kids could be but that she was doing the best she could. Awesome girl. Wasn't exactly my type but she's gonna make some guy really happy someday. Just a little "thin skinned" for my taste.

Lesson, Marty Philosophy #14 - The bigger the ego, the bigger the pain in the butt.

hmm, I should make a real Marty Philosophy list some day, cause I do have a lot of those!!! lol

Good to know that there are some honest ones out there ReddBeans that keep with what they say.

Ibanez?? hmm, hard to tell with those I guess.


I just got a Laguna, it's sweet meat!

Personally I don't care if they do them or not. Doesn't bother me one bit.

My point is how frequently they show up in "interests" on a profile or the first time you meet someone and how infrequently they are done. I don't know anyone who camps more than once or twice a year at the most unless their retired (couple friends). But if the last time you went camping was when you were seven.... that's when I raise and eyebrow.

I was thinking more along the lines of just saying it for the attention, but could be right.... hmm...

My other theory was that maybe women look at hobbies different. Maybe a hobbie to them is something that they did once or twice.

Yes/No/Maybe?

Might want to add more pictures (I'm a few short myself) and maybe stretch that descrip to a full paragraph. Course short and sweet works sometimes too I guess.


Is that a Gibson?

Yea, that's another good one.

Forgot all about the walks on the beach. But at least that one isn't on every other profile!

I said this for a reason, there are exceptions.

Alright, this is a post for guys. I want to hear some guy opinions and we don't need flaming from the masses, nothing constructive to say on the subject then keep your keyboard shut...

now


I was just wondering if anyone else found it weird. I've been noticing it for quite a while and never really pointed it out to anyone. If you browse through the profiles of women on here, about 99% of them (BS made up statistic, just sayin) talk about how much they LOVE the outdoors, they LOVE sports, and they LOVE traveling...

I don't know about anyone else, but I've met very few people who go traveling as a hobbie. Maybe it's just me and I think traveling is somewhere out of the country and not an activity that happens all that often (which I would expect your favorite activities to be things that you do often), but I dunno. Just seems kind of funny that so many say it.

Same thing with the outdoors thing. I live in Louisiana now and every girl I meet tells me how much they love to go camping, hiking, biking, etc, they just love being outdoors. Then I date them for a couple months and the closest they ever get to the outdoors is their driveway. They talk about they love fishing and you ask them "where's a good spot" and they just look at you blank, like their a deer about to get hit by a car.

Then they say they want Honesty!!! LOL

This is just a general rant ladies, not directed at anyone in particular, just stirring the pot a little bit.

Let me know what y'all think about this.

Thanks for the comments, I try sometimes. After sleeping on it for a day I realize that you can also get a morning after pill from any pharmacy for 50 bucks. Just for future reference. Went that route one time even though "she" said it was unneccessary. Little late for that if your taking pregnancy tests though I would think.

Wow, someone comes in looking for advice and automatically gets the smash and bash parade, welcome to mingle!!

Yea, like the ladies said, be sure first, don't stress it till there is something to stress about, and then STRESS LIKE CRAZY!!!!!

just kidding.

Dump the part time/as needed crap. I mean hold on to it until you find something but you need to get on the ball and get your life in order pretty quick, baby or otherwise. Construction/Surveying are easy jobs to get, it's hard work but it's steady and in the end a decent profession. Flip through papers and put a resume out there, don't wait on one to "come to you," go out and get one. She probably needs to be doing something in the meantime as well, y'all are in this mess together and need to work together to make something happen, just my opinion of course.

Step two, she's not going to be able to work for a couple months if she's pregnant and she's not going to be pulling in much money on a short term job, will probably save you both a lot of headache if one of you can stay home with the kid, and one that young, probably better her if you've got higher credentials.

Life is tough man, and you're about to find that out real quick so fasten your seatbelt and get ready. I don't have a lot of time but know this.
1. You're not going to get the job you want and it's probably not going to make you happy.
2. You've got a lot to go through and a fast learning curve ahead, so muster up some motivation and make it happen.
3. Your chances of survival through this thing, if you are prepared to work hard and make some sacrifices, is fair. Don't let it drag you down, let it make you a stronger person.

Maybe once you get working for a while you can start chasing the money a little but for now put first things first, man up, grab the bull by the horns and take charge of your life. My best advice ever. If you need someone to talk to let me know and I'll try to help.

One last note, get out of the mindset of parents are asshats, or whatever it was. They may be, but you might need a little help and being the bigger person, taking a little grief, and trying to get along when anyone else would quit will go a long way. Later and good luck.

Aparently it's unsafe on oilrigs too. I'm not allowed to have any out here.
