It’s less about enjoying it and more about just not being around enough to absorb the fact that it exists. Believe me, I’d rather live in a world where the Rolling Stones weren’t a cultural touchpoint, but they are, and people should know who they are, if only because I need someone to loathe their mediocrity with me.

Yeah, I feel like we’re splitting hairs at this point.
Classic rock is cool, but you shouldn’t hold it against people for not knowing that stuff. Maybe they grew up listening to jazz. Maybe they grew up listening to Insane Clown Posse. Perhaps they struck out on their own to discover music for themselves. Maybe they discovered the Hotline Miami OST, and that’s their jam.
I type this in good humor. Scout’s honor: I shall not derail this thread further.

^Get freaky!!
I was good friends with a trans before the pandemic hit and she moved out of town. We flirted the hell out of each other. Wonderful musician.
She had no trouble attracting the ladies, that’s for sure! Pretty interesting character.

^Ha! You have a collage of mine, you are legally obligated to NOT throw vegetables at me.
Also, laptop update: I got that pesky sticker on the lower right removed once and for all. It only took rubbing alcohol and an hour of my poor fingernails.
I thank you once again for the laptop, @nose.

Hung out with this lass again in between jobs, and gonna hang out this weekend. Got to see her in some rare non-work clothes, and she’s a total fashionista! (I used to dress more fashionably, but I only ever attracted gay men).
Probably just good friends. Regardless, she’s the most interesting person I’ve met in a while. An instant rapport, as they say.

When did online dating become seeking arrangement…
The whole sugar baby and sugar daddy thing me thinks there is some logical disconnect going on here…

^Ha! My sister is still hardcore into dating apps. She was asking me how to reply to some dude who’s been texting her a few hours ago. I still encourage her to GET A FUCKING DILDO! 
I guess some guy’s been hitting her up on Tinder.
You might actually meet some cool people @moodorf who aren’t looking to bang. I only lasted fifteen minutes on Tinder years ago, but there was some gal’s profile that basically said “My sister made me do this,” and she was probably pretty cool. At the same time, I found some other local people’s Tinder profiles who I really didn’t want to know about. 
That whole thing is weird as hell to me. I like dating, as I’ve stated, but it’s with people I’ve come to know in person.
Good luck. God speed. Buy a sex toy.

Ghosting people is so shitty. How hard is it to say “hey, I’m not really feeling a connection” over chat. People have become such emotional cowards.

A Married woman tries to entice me with love messages 80s style by screaming outside my house window saying things like “I love you”, “your an asshole, kill yourself”, back to “I love you”, basically she switches back and forth between the love and the fuck yous…
A Whole lots of nope.
Not getting involved in that shit.
Not interested because shes not my type…also shes married.
And because she is stalking me.
And her stalking me is making her friends jealous…so I get hate from those people too.
Im just like Good bye…block and ignore.

It’s annoying af…
It’s like how many times do I have to tell this woman to move the fuck on…shes already hitched…why the fuck is she coming after my cock for…
But also shes being stupid by listening to her so called friends when in fact they are really her frenemies…that would like to see her fail,
Also her husband is a real good guy…he is a keeper and he would walk through the fire…he would tell the fire to go fuck itself and the fire would fuck itself like a bitch…
The amount of stupidity I had to put up with is astonishing. It went on for a few years…hence some of my odd posts
But i hope/ it looks like she finally got the message…

You honestly might consider starting to document her stalking just in case you ever want to involve the cops.

I kid I kid.
I’ve actually had a similar issue, I have a guy staying on the property in a camper that’s the landlord’s friend (he’s leaving tomorrow I think thankfully)
His wife is making what seem to be advances at me and I have tried to just distance myself from her. This guy wrecks his truck, so in the morning if I head into town, I text HIM to offer him a ride to go grab what he needs, and every time he responds and says ok, but it’s mostly her coming out. The first time it happened, I figured she told him we were heading into town, which she did not. We come back and he’s standing outside, waiting. Came to my window and asked what we were doing, and I was confused because he had answered my text to his phone?
One night she comes to my door just wanting to hang out, I was just kinda like, “uhhhh ok.” assuming that he knew since they’re living there together. Instead he starts blowing her phone up and I have to tell her “hey look, you need to go home.” Another night I text him to clean the back of my head up after shaving it, he says yes. SHE shows up at the door and she’s wasted on something, tells me that he’s terrible at that and not to let him. She wants to do it. Sure, whatever but this is weird. She’s slurring her words and I’m nervous she’s gonna fuck it up, instead she just keeps rubbing the clippers on the same part of the back of my neck while saying “you’re a cutie” and “if I had single friends I would hook you up” and I’m just continuously saying oh cool thanks cool thanks again can you please move the fuckin clippers around a bit before my neck starts to bleed!
Then he comes over a week later or so. Says he wants to ask me a question, shows up with a 12 pack. Guess we are hanging out now, that’s such a trailer guy move. At some point while talking, he says, “I get uncomfortable when you guys are alone” to where I have to straight up say, “hey man, first of all, I wouldn’t ever do anything like that. Second, you guys come over here and I’m chill and everything, I don’t mind hanging out sometimes, but I kinda like to be by myself most of the time. Also it seems like you guys are having issues which is none of my business but, you’re complaining to me. Like you came over to my house, then you’re uncomfortable with me for no reason other than how SHE is acting, sounds like you guys should just stay over there, because my life didn’t have these issues before and I like it that way.”
Since then, it’s been better for the most part, they went to ubering into town and then grabbed a used car. Anyways, hope they’re gone tomorrow.

Update:
Tried to be understanding cause I thought she was confused but…that is so not the case.
Oh well…
So Blocking and ghosting this person cause shes not interested in reason…
Shes not crazy, nor psycho, shes just not interested in listening to reason…just being hardheaded.
It’s just two people not getting along…because the square block doesnt fit into the circle…in other words personalities dont fit together.
Basically the if there was a back and forth it would be this:
You,
no you,
u,
no u,
My arguement: moral relativism, hypocrisy.
why even bother in the first place…I just see myself as an irrelevant person.
Her arguement: ad hominem, hypocrisy, moral relativism. her unyielding interpretation of my intentions.
End result:
Two morons engaging in fail.
