I love drinking until I’ve had a drink, and then I do that again every single day. I don’t drink a lot but it’s still aggravating.

My mother quit smoking 25 years ago and still has panic attacks about it every few weeks.
That pisses her off so she won’t ever smoke again.

Meanwhile idiots like me ended up vaping all day long and when I went back to cigarettes my tolerance was through the roof and I smoked more than I ever did.

I can relate.
I never got as bad as my father, who used a lighter once a day and lit the rest of them off of the last one.

I roll my own. Cheap as hell, but I wish I could stop. I’d lose my goddamn mind if I did.

So start smoking and you won’t even notice.
Seriously though, as a lifelong smoker I do my best to keep it from being anyone else’s problem.

These folks aren’t interested in a date. Depraved sex is to them what collection old video games is to me.
It’s just a hobby, and they aren’t usually picky or they can’t afford their hobby.

Bro, they say perpetual motion is impossible, buuuuut, see. These sciency types ain’t got a woman like her.
You just climb up on her and smack your own ass and BAM. Perpetual motion.
All you gotta do is ride the wave after that until you’re finished.
All the Charles Manson lookalikes must have learned about the perpetual motion truth and got excited enough to become love slaves to this trophy of a perpetual motion machine.
I’m telling you bro, it’s like surfing but it smells funny and you’re getting laid.

Pretty standard where I’m from.
If the speed is 55, most people are going 65. Cops won’t mess with you for it unless you give them a reason. You know, having a dead tag, a dead sticker, being black, brake lights are out, something like that.

I miss when it was the default position of everyone online.
Still though, with the whole damn world going online, in places where anonymity is never expected in the first place, I can see the benefit. I used Facebook marketplace once just to be ripped off.
My daughter uses an anonymous Facebook account with the name of a cartoon character, she’d just close the account if they pushed her though.

I never stopped playing Mortal Kombat 1-3. It’s hard to get someone nostalgic for a time they never left haha.
I do have the arcade machine now though. My wife spoils me.
As for my clothes, I’ve smoked, drank, and done way too many drugs to actually look youthful. When old folks tell me that I look younger than I am, I tell them it’s because I’m wearing the same clothes I bought 20 years ago and I look like a college age millennial because of that, and their sense of time is off.

- Comment on Anon gets a call from his past 4 weeks ago:
Oh boy oh boy. Story time.
So around 2015 I got a call at work from an ex-girlfriend. I was 100% certain that the first time I had had sex with her had occurred in 2008.
She informed me that it was actually in 2007 when we got drunk and ended up crashing at a friends place.
The whole point of her call was to tell me that she had a daughter, and that daughter was mine. I watched that baby for her when she was about 6 months old. It never even crossed my mind.
She had me totally convinced. I called my old friend who informed me that we did in fact have sex night and that he heard us and was annoyed by it. The timing was perfect. Uh oh.
Anyway, I always liked her. I didn’t think I had any reason to distrust her. So, like the fool I am, I just went with it.
She said that she didn’t tell me because of my heavy drinking, drug use, and promiscuity. She didn’t think I was cut out to be a dad, but then she seen through social media how good I was with my kids and decided she was wrong, all these years later. Things started seeming off pretty quick. She told me that a friend of hers passed away in a car accident, and she always told the daughter that he was her father.
Deeper than that, though, she told his family he was the father.
She told me that the little girl was that family’s link to him and that she didn’t want to break their heart. But she wanted to know, and she wanted me to have a relationship with my daughter. I thought it was fucked up that she had done that, but I certainly didn’t want to crush some mother’s heart who lost her young son in an accident and miraculously found that he had left a child for her to love.
She said that I could come around and that we would let the kid know when she was older.
We first agreed to meet at a park, I went and sat there for two hours and she never showed up. Then she apologized and said something came up, she wanted to meet at the petting zoo that was in town. I went to the petting zoo, sat there for a while, and she never showed up. She told me that she would be in touch with me, that she was sorry things kept coming up.
At that point, I had still refused to get a cell phone because I am so antisocial. I didn’t want to have to talk to people or answer people when I was outside of my home or my job. I didn’t get a cell phone until 2019, I always used an iPod touch with a VOIP app. So whenever I was left hanging, I just had to wait.
I ended up talking with the kid on the phone a few times, she was a very sweet kid, but very trouble. That trouble I knew, had to come from somewhere.
The last time we scheduled to meet, I got a call the day before. It was her sister.
“angryseal, I have always liked you. When I found out my sister was talking to you again, I couldn’t just sit by and let you get scammed. You are not the first long lost father, you’re probably about the 5th. To give you a clue how awful my sister is, she met a lonely older man who has spent his entire life taking care of his sick mother. He never had time to date, and after his mom passed he went out and had the misfortune of meeting my sister. She was at his house one night and noticed a bank statement with a large number. She hatched a plan and called him up a few weeks later. She told him she had cancer at that she couldn’t afford the surgery and was going to die if she didn’t get it. It was early enough that all she needed was a surgery, and that surgery was 40k. This man gave her 40,000 dollars, she called him one more time to say the surgery was successful and then she ghosted him. She blew all of that money vacationing with another man in Florida. They probably spent half of it on cocaine. You tell my sister that you want a DNA test and you will never hear from her again.”
What!? Ok.
So the next time we spoke, I told her that it wasn’t anything personal, I just didn’t want heartbreak on down the line and I told her I’d like to get a DNA test. “How dare you? What, you don’t trust me? I have never been anything but good to you! You know what?! I’ve done just fine raising her without you up to now and I’ll keep doing fine, you asshole!”
I have never heard from her again.
I still think about that pretty often haha. What a world we live in.

I knew a girl a long time ago whose mother had her convinced that she could tell by her urine if she ever had sex.
She was a good mom for the most part, just backwards in a lot of ways (mostly having to do with religion).
When that girl went wild, oh boy she went wild.
When she found out her mom had lied to her, she went to a party and begged people to have sex with her. She was beautiful but it freaked everyone out so the only person interested was a creep.
Fortunately she didn’t get pregnant and end up stuck with him or something.
You can mess kids up doing crap like that.

I mean, yeah, but he spent his whole workday riding around in the woods on an atv. He came to my little gas station to fill up his truck and atv and he was always happy.
He also inspected mines, I think most of his job was about looking for runoff from the mines.

Religion. The preacher says the gay is bad. Preacher says the trans is bad. Democrats want to extend basic rights to those people and preacher says god don’t like that.

It blows my mind that gen z is old enough to be stuck in this mess with us.
The only chance I ever had to own a home was taking over the one I grew up in from my parents. I couldn’t raise my kids there though. The neighborhood went from being a nice little mining town to meth as currency town.
Good luck you guys. Maybe y’all can work on the boys following Andrew Tate off of a cliff and get this world going in the right direction.
Shit, in 40 years us millennials will finally be old enough to hold elected office. Hahahahaha
