I'm allowed say that because I'm from Ireland. Fags are either things you smoke or dried wood for our fires! Or gay men who act so ridiculous that they give any other homosexual people a bad name.

I know. I said in b4 to prevent certain other people from making a gay joke out of it.

failing at quitting fags

I have a similar problem.

and being rather well liked by most people at college while at the same time feeling really ostracised there. I don't get their music, their love of going out and dancing with sexy clothes and stuff, their unwillingness to question anything or think deeply at all, the way they just take everything for granted. But most of all I just envy them. I'm such a loser.

You are not a loser! And if you envy them, join them for a night out dancing. I'll bet you would have a blast, and that chip on your shoulder would dwindle to crumbs soon enough. Unless you like said chip.

I've gone out three times and gone to two parties. It all seems like superficial crap to me. The music is bad, the people smell like sweat and look silly. It's just not my thing. I'd prefer to spend the night chatting or watching a film with people. Drinking is good fun but I've already had to carry two of the girls to bed, plus it's taking a toll on my pocket. I wouldn't mind the spending aspect if it were really fun, but I just don't understand it. You can't even hear anyone else speaking because the music is so overbearing - plus most of the lads I hang around with seem to prefer the scene than the actual act.

Like there's a song in the chart at the moment (I know this because they constantly have the shitty chart channel on tv playing the same 30 shit songs over and over) and it's like "Tonight's gonna be a good night" and the video is loads of sexy women getting drunk and naked and falling over. But in reality it's loads of mediocre women getting shitfaced and throwing up and having their clothes fall off and then having to be dragged to bed where they end up unconscious until the next day. I was criticising how crap the video was at dinner the other day and the lads were like "what, that looks like the best night ever!" Yeah, getting so drunk you end up sprawled in a hallway half naked (which actually happens in the video) and probably raped later in the night (should've been in the video) sounds fantastic.

Nobody seems to mind that I don't like it, they're all super nice. It just means that I'll probably be doing less going out this year than I'm used to. Unless I can't find a like-minded person and an old man pub. Which is unlikely based on the fucking ridiculous night life in Limerick! You can't move for people even in the late bars.

I actually know exactly how you feel. I for one have never felt comfortable at giant parties, though I think I've been to about 4-5 of them that I've found quite enjoyable. I'd much rather hang out with about 5 of my good friends/acquaintances, at one of our houses, cook some impressive food and just chill. I think I got most of the other shit out of my system when I was 19. As far as cool bars with likeminded people, I can't speak for other countries or your area, but we have a few pretty awesome places in San Francisco that are more laid back that you'd probably enjoy. I think what you probably need to do is find a friend who's a bit older and a bit more mature and I think you guys will probably have a good time.

Now I have to go explain why I've been so down to the girl who's basically the woman of my dreams. Shit, man, I don't want her to know I get depressed. It's fucking rare that you find a girl who reads Kurt Vonnegut, plays the drums and guitar, is globally aware, will play video games with you for 3 hours one day, and loves to break random shit with you and is actually really fucking cute to boot.

Oye.

This is exactly why I hate both parties an alchohol. It's all anyone does around here, and I just don't relate to it at all. It sucks.

But I do hope you find some like minded people Prexy. I'm sure they are probably there, just hiding somewhere. :3

Car towed when it shouldn't have been. I foot the bill instead of my leasing agent, who called for it to be towed accidentally. Car parked outside so it wouldn't get towed again. Some jackass breaks the mirror off. Schoolwork mounting. I need to find a new apartment. And an internship. And a present for my girlfriend's birthday coming up. Stress. Fuck this city. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

TesseracT is playing in Poland next year. BrunoN just lost cool points for living in Poland and probably getting to see them

Please excuse teh jealousy.

Looks like I spoke too soon, and got pwned as a result. I guess I didn't know the gory details of the night life there. Yeah, I would probably rather be with a few good peeps and just chat as well. Shit, it is what I do every night with you guys anyway!

I HAVE been having a great time dancing at the gay bar though....despite everyone there being sluts, sugar daddies and alcoholics.

Getting a ticket for a speed limit violation of 4 km/h. On a Tuesday night. On an empty motorway.

Fucking highway robbery is what it is. I'll be sure to jaywalk a few extra times this week, that'll show 'em.

When you're having a shower and you pick up the bottle of shampoo and when you open it some bubbles come out of the top and you're like oh look it's some bubb OH GOD MY EYE
