Aw man, this reminds me that I have a busted PSP I need to fix. I’ve been wanting a pocket emulator for some time, and I used to have a PSP ages ago that I’d jailbroken to play SNES games lol
- Comment on summer fling's over. decided to do something productive, so I got an apartment in Seoul and signed up for a Korean course. 3 days ago:
My parents helped me move into my first own apartment in August 2014. It was so hot and humid. First thing I did was barf. I’m autistic. I hate change. And my move symbolized a mammoth change in my life. I was 22. I’d just graduated college. I moved to the city away from my friends. I would be starting my first full-time job that following Monday. My life as I knew it was ending, and something else was beginning. I’m sure the heat exhaustion wasn’t helping. I lied in bed, watching the ceiling spin and spin and spin and spin until I couldn’t take it anymore and said my prayers to the porcelain gods for the rest of the night.
I believe I moved on a Wednesday so I had time to get my bearings. Figure out where things were and what there was to do. I was never a drinker so even though the area was lousy with watering holes, I never visited any of them. But I did get to game over the weekend. My first day at work wasn’t too bad, either. I got paid seventeen bucks an hour to sort time cards on my first day. Paychecks were a month in arrears. You had to wait til the end of the following month to collect your first payday so since I started on the 11th and not the 1st of the month, those first few months were rough.
Took me a while to poop with the door open. I only got to do that for maybe a half year before I met and moved in with my now wife. She doesn’t deserve to smell that shit, but she does tell me I the farts I fart in my sleep are war crimes lol

Breaking the waves is how I get 45-50 mpg on commutes in my 2012 Civic. And that’s with the air conditioning turned on. If I maintain a fairly steady 50-60 miles an hour, I will easily go 400 miles on a tank.

I love driving cars as much as I love wrenching on them. That is to say it’s among my favorite things when I want to, and I want to stick a red hot poker in my eyes when I have to.

Not only did my parents have sex (ew), but also, I didn’t fuckin’ ask to be here. Now I have to do shit like:
- Have a job,
- Pay bills,
- Go to my job so I can pay my bills so I can go to my job so I can pay my bills so I can go to my job so I can pay my bills so I can go to my job so I can pay my bills so I can go to my job so I can pay my bills…
- Brush and see a dentist regularly,
- Wear pants,
- Poop,
- Pee,
- Eat healthy regularly,
- Not get fat despite all of the easy calorie-dense foods out there,
- Schedule checkups with a doctor, and eventually
- Die
And society (whatever that is) expects me to have sex and have kids, too! UGH.

For real, my wife is around 2. I like mine about 4 or 5. I want a good crunch, but she likes her bacon flaccid.
She also takes her steak at a medium. I want my steak all but still mooing.

Maybe he does. Maybe he was in Oklahoma City on the morning of April 19, 1995. Perhaps he’s acutely aware of the use cases one has for a fertilizer stockpile.

- Comment on [deleted] 4 months ago:
I do hate the double standard that it’s totally fine for men to joke and talk about sex, but when a woman does it, she must be dirty in some way. I get that biologically, women have had to be more choosy with partners because for a long time, the best protection was zero insertion, or the chances of ending up with a child you didn’t want were nonzero. Things are different now. We have the pill. We have emergency contraceptives. Some of us even have access to abortions.
Sex isn’t dirty. It’s normal and natural to want it. It’s normal to have a hard time getting it. It’s normal to be frustrated by the dating field and navigating relationships. It’s normal to feel incredibly rewarded when you do get it. And it’s normal to want to blow off steam by talking to people closest to you about your successes and failures in life. And a big part of being human is one’s own sexual exploits.
One of my closest friends is a woman about 13 years older than me (I’m 33; she’s 46), and she’s going through menopause right now. And she’ll start talking about the difficulty it’s bringing her, and she’ll tell me, “You don’t wanna hear about all this,” or, “I know you don’t care about this.” And the truth is that I do not nor could I ever understand what she’s going through, but as a friend, I can listen to her complain about it and give her the space to vent. Even if I’ll never get it, I can just be a voice in the room to pull out some great hits like:
- “Jeeeesus, I’m so sorry,”
- “Yikes, that sucks,” or
- "Haha, Fuck. That."
As a man, I don’t always have follow up questions or advice to offer someone going through issues unique to women. But people aren’t always looking for advice. Sometimes, it’s just nice to have the space to blow off steam with a safe person.
And that’s not dirty. It’s something we all do.

I’m so happy we moved away from this and toward three basic questions:
- Where do you want it?
- How hot do you want it?
- How hard do you want it?

Go ahead and call the mechanic to schedule that transmission fluid change. Don’t let him rip you off with a flush, though. All you need is a drain and fill.
- Comment on Anon reads Into the Wild 4 months ago:
I agree with some of Chris’s viewpoints. Materialism is stupid. Buying shit for the sake of acquiring shit is stupid. Not that you should never have anything sentimental, but those kinds of things are tied to people or events.
But yeah, guy kinda lost me when he decided to camp in the Alaskan bush with no survival skills, no experience dressing a carcass, no foraging skills, and very little equipment. As others pointed out, he went there to die, then changed his mind when it was too late. A rational, non-suicidal person would have spent months preparing for this outing.
Basically everyone who jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge and lived (only ~2% of jumpers) regretted doing it before they hit the water. Chris jumped from the bridge and changed his mind halfway down. Going to Alaska wasn’t some brave choice to be free. You can do that anywhere in the Lower 48. It was a cry for help masked as a revolutionary idea.
