You’re like a broken record Warren. Have you ever thought that there isn’t come collusion of thought, that you’re just coming off as a vindictive bore?
No, but I did fuck the tires.
I got drunk, went into my bathroom and got on my favorite Dodge Ram Pickups forum on my iPhone. I let everyone know their inflation pressure and that I expected I’d be testing their wet traction later. Everyone on the forum made fun of me though, so I quit the forum for like three days.
Now I’m on the hunt for the truck of my dreams. For reals this time.
Practice what you preach. The rest of the thread police had this before you came around.

I’M like a broken record? Jesus Christ…
What am I preaching here, Demon? Do you have any idea what’s going on? Can you see the screen clearly through the bong smoke?
Supersport making his own thread would just result in him posting updates followed by a bunch of people who should know better giving him crap about his lifestyle until he stops posting or quits the forum. It’s not like we have even a small group of poly/swing lifestyle folks here to support him. A separate thread is a recipe for disaster.
Personally I’ve found his posts to be interesting and fairly well written (if not spell checked, but it’s the internets, so no big thing) and would like to hear more of his thoughts and follow his progress. It’s not every day that you get an insight into an alternative lifestyle like this, and even if it’s total bullshit (which the level of detail makes me think is not the case) it’s still entertaining at least.
Forcing Supersport and ElGaupo and anyone similar into some kind of “Hot Tub Swap Machine” thread is a disservice to the diversity that makes this forum awesome. I understand where some folks are coming from, I mean I’ve been married for 16 years so I’m probably getting less action than most of the single guys trawling the dating sites, but I still find it interesting to hear from everyone, be they (extrodinarily) successful practicing heterosexuals, gay and lesbian singles looking for love on the internet, or a couple exploring an alternative lifestyle. There’s room in the thread for all of it.
Wee woo wee woo

nice. I gave up smoking, but you apparently haven’t given up being a judgmental prick.
Man, you guys. :P
I only suggested a new thread for Supersport because his situation is so unusual and outside the typical dating experience. Heck, it makes same-sex dating seem vanilla. But in retrospect I do think it’s better for him to post here because a new thread would probably be eviscerated in short order.
If the swinger/poly lifestyle ain’t for you, it’s easy enough to skip his occasional posts, the same way you can skip over Guapo’s or mine.
Or someone post more profile photos for feedback. That’s always fun. I should have some new ones ready for a-mockin’ come Friday. I can already hear the cries of “Smile, dammit!” now.
I’m sure there are more than a few people reading or posting in this thread who enjoy their fair share of non-vanilla situations across the entire spectrum. If we lived in a society where sharing that sort of thing didn’t get you fired/not hired if it pops up on a Google search, I think you might find more people sharing such stories.
I really don’t want to take over this thread because I think there are some folks here that are in real need. Just every couple weeks, I would like to post what we have been going through on the dating scene.
My wife and I spent 13 years not communicating our true feelings and it ground our marriage to the point of divorce. Once we did communicate our feelings, the last few years have been the best of our marriage. This kind of lifestyle is not for everybody but if this type of open and frank talk even helps out one couple or enables somebody to help out another couple, then that would make me one happy camper.

Man, if only it were that easy to skip ElGuapo’s daring sexcapades, but he tries to bring them up in every other god damn thread he posts in. I get it, he’s a walking STD that other guys wish they could be for some reason, who cries on the inside because he hasn’t met the girl of his dreams who he will totally meet after he screws these other whores. I feel for him. I really do. The doctor bills must be enormous.
But seriously, I was suggesting mentioning the internet dating site thing for Supersport so that people wouldn’t give him crap about not being on topic. Simply starting with ‘We met this couple on OKCupid where we have had some luck…’ or ‘We met these people on fuckyourfriendsdotcom and they were pretty gross so avoid that site’ might mitigate some of the damage. Creole Ned is particularly awesome about posting his sagas of online dating with the sites/whens/wheres and I think we’re all rooting for him. He’s inspired other people to share their profiles and get advice, etc. He never seems like he’s posting to brag.
Then again, I’m just a hater who hates people having sex. Or something. I’m only here to ruin the thread for everyone!
Do I come across as bragging? I tried really hard not to come across like that on here.
Yeah, I agree.
Also what Slainte Mhath said while I was writing my post.
Back on-topic, last night I had someone from PoF ask me if I wanted to be his “sex buddy”. The first thing in his profile is not a word, but that little animated banana guy:
Well, speaking of any individual taking over the thread…
I’m going to having a Talk with my girlfriend K tomorrow, whom I’ve been with for a few months since our meeting through OkCupid. Interestingly, we met through an Icebreaker match (Terry Pratchett). I’ve been waiting because I don’t want to have this conversation over the phone or, worse, via email… and it’s her birthday today, and it can damn well wait until tomorrow.
Basically, I think we’re not compatible even for the medium-term, so to speak; we seek flux in our lives from different sources and have no interest in other’s, we have divergent hobbies and no interest in each other’s hobbies, and she’s not okay with spending time together doing our own thing.
Which means that spending any amount of time together involves one of the two of us doing something we’re not interested in, whether that’s (for me) watching TV/movies, or (for her) watching anime / playing coop video games / talking about random stuff that isn’t related to TV/movies.
She’s also very unappreciative of what she sees as my childishness and immaturity in certain things, whereas I consider it just part of who I am… I love to stand outside just before a thunderstorm and feel the electricity in the air crackling along my hair, to sled down the street during Snowpocalypse, to go on random adventures in the city and be fascinated by looking at drops of water through a magnifying glass.
It’s a pity, because she’s an absolutely fantastic cook, and she’s been teaching me some of her tricks and recipes, but that’s a small thing to lose. :)
So it’s very likely that I’ll be back in the vortex starting Wednesday afternoon, and hopefully will have tales to regale you with!
LOL. so what did you say Ned?

I was initially thinking he should start a new thread because there are probably a lot of people who don’t keep up with the dating thread who would see the new topic. But upon reflection, I can’t decide whether that would be a good or bad thing. My hunch is as long as it isn’t in P&R it’ll be fine, though he might have to go over some of the same ground again for the new people.

Man, what’s up with that? My gf and I have pretty different interests, but it doesn’t matter at all because we’re both perfectly happy to sit on the couch doing different things. In fact, it’s probably a bigger point of friction that I got her hooked on Animal Crossing and only have the one TV, so I can’t play anything on the 360 while she’s writing letters to squirrels.
