remember when you used to go over to your friend’s house and you’d go down to the “computer room” to the dad’s old shitty desktop computer and sit on the giant black leather computer chair and your friend would show you charlie the unicorn and epic rap battles of history type of stuff on youtube while their younger siblings bugged you for a turn to use the computer

…this is so specific but… yes I do remember.

Andrew Garfield (about the failure of the Spiderman franchise and possibly referencing his interest in bisexual Peter Parker) in response to Dev Patel’s comments on the disappointment of working on the Last Airbender film and not recognizing himself on screen: “this is a terrible extension of me.”

I did meet a fake geek girl once.

We were at school and she started to casually drop in that she liked comics/games/”geek stuff”, at the time I was wearing an iroman shirt. Deeper into the conversation i found that she didn’t know what I meant when I was referring to anything about the characters. When I questioned her about it a few days later she admitted that she had really just said it to get to know me better.

We ended up dating and while we were dating she got really into comics, DC especially, and found out that she really did enjoy the things she first said she did. I took her to her first convention. She met another guy there and ended up breaking up with me for him.

I went on to discover I was gay and fucked her brother.

Moral of the story. Comics lead to sex in the most unexpected ways.

This story was a riot from start to finish.

I wasn’t prepared for literally any of that

a woman: hi, how are you?

a man: hm. see I wouldn’t have phrased it exactly like that. I might have said “hello” or perhaps “salutations.” but the way you said it is cute though.

You are aware this is just as sexist as the things people say about women, correct?

a woman: you ever notice men speak to women like we are beneath them and constantly police our language and appearance?

a man: hm. i know you, poor thing, are blissfully unaware of the difficulty that text posts put us (men, or “males,” depending on the colloquial) through. let me explain in the follow paragraph how we can effectively ignore institutionalized and global sexism because this post personally called me, a man, out for my degrading behavior. see, this sort of witty and harmless observation is sexist,
