And are great in a fight.

What?

Did you see Everything Everywhere All At Once? There is a moment where that exact thing happens

 

[Sweetn3ss]

So I've been a little under the weather lately but wanted to keep myself occupied. I thought it might be fun to re read all of Stephen King's books as I used to be obsessed with him.
So today I'm starting Carrie who is Matilda with anger issues haha.

If any of you want to read along with me you are welcome to

Oh that one made me cry. I never understood why she was so angry at the end but I totally get it now.

Thank you. Feeling much better
Welcome to Lit

Omg yes! She was absolutely wonderful. Ke Huy Quan was too. The whole cast really. I have to watch this again.

Not if this thread is a little hideaway thread for when things are getting too much for you. Looks like you're using it perfectly

Hoping everyone is having a great weekend

[RosewoodTulip]

So let's talk dates.
I hopefully have one this week. Haven't been on one in years so it's all very exciting.

What was the best date you've ever been on?
What about worst date?
What's the optimal date length?
What would an ideal date for you look like?
Celebrity dream date?
What do you hope to get out of a date? The promise of another? Is sex ok on a first date or do you prefer to wait?

I'm cleaning a coffee machine so...

Yes that's the plan. I just didn’t want to abandon it after less than a week.

So you're having loads of fun then haha

 

[Saltfountain]

I've got threads that haven't had a post in much longer than that, and I don't consider them abandoned.
Merely on energy saving mode...

That's a great way to think about it

 

[Saltfountain]

The thread is yours. If others provide the energy at times, that's totally fine.

But this is your hideaway from the hurly burly. Its up to you how you use it

 

[Wriggle]

What was the best date you've ever been on?

Boat and bike ride to a secluded beach

What about worst date?

I was young and I are a sixteenth of hashish at work in the daytime and was totally ruined by the time I met up with the girl and couldn't even speak.

What's the optimal date length?

A few hours that leads to overnight

What would an ideal date for you look like?

Happy

Celebrity dream date?

Hannah Fry (or Beyonce)

What do you hope to get out of a date? The promise of another?

Knowledge and experience and enjoyment

Is sex ok on a first date or do you prefer to wait?

Of course it is - it's the 21st century and sex is fun

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Haha oh no
Did you get another date?

 

[Wriggle]

Haha oh no
Did you get another date?

I actually arranged a trip to the cinema with her the following weekend. Had a snog in the backseat of the taxi and that was the last I ever saw of her.

So you redeemed yourself then?
Cinema and a snog is a pretty good day out

Don't know about redeeming myself
The poor girl must have found me attractive enough for a second chance.
(I was quite sexy in my younger days - I just never realised it.)

So you were off your tits on weed to the point of not being able to speak, and she saw you again...
You took her out and were functioning, and that's the last you saw of her?

Man, she's savage...

Probably preferred me sitting in the corner looking pretty than clumsy nervous conversations from an addled mind.

Well that's her loss then. Clumsy nervous conversations are great (I hope, cos that's all I got)

 

[Wriggle]

They're great.
And I reckon your date will be a great amount of fun.

So let's talk dates.
I hopefully have one this week. Haven't been on one in years so it's all very exciting.

Yayyyyyyyy Rooting for you, girlie.

What was the best date you've ever been on?

Lots of memorable ones. The curvy redhead I dated a few years ago was pretty great. She left me her panties at the end of our first date. The coworker that I took to see American Beauty I had a really nice night with. We played each other music, had a deep talk, and went down on each other. Ahhhhh perfect

What about worst date?

The girl that began by saying 'Sorry if I seem out of it, I just drank an entire bottle of Nyquil." Later she told me she only went out with me to make her ex jealous. That made me feel like shit. She wasn't great.

What's the optimal date length?

6.5 inches with a little girth.

What? oh. Uh, 2-4 hours.

What would an ideal date for you look like?

Dinner and drinks. Something cool and casual.

Celebrity dream date?

Emilia Clarke has been catching my eye lately.

What do you hope to get out of a date? The promise of another?

Just to connect with someone and have a good time really. That's where anything worthwhile starts. Even if we just end up being friends.

Is sex ok on a first date or do you prefer to wait?

Honey, I've had sex DURING the first date. #HoeLife

This is excellent!

What was the best date you've ever been on?

Dennys at two AM after going clubbing.

What about worst date?

I went on a date with a boy my mom said was a good kid. She was friends with his parents. He took me to get ice cream and then tried to molest me in a parking lot. Fun times.

What's the optimal date length?

2-3 hours

What would an ideal date for you look like?

I’m up for anything, really. Except alligators. If there are alligators, I’m out.

Celebrity dream date?

I have to pick just one?
That’s hard. I feel like I’d need to spend some serious time here.

What do you hope to get out of a date?

A fun time. To get to know someone. Now it’s quality time.

The promise of another?

Not always sometimes you can go on one date and know a second would be a disaster.

Is sex ok on a first date or do you prefer to wait?

Sex is fine, it’s also okay to wait. As long as you’re both into it, why not. You’re an adult.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

So let's talk dates.
I hopefully have one this week. Haven't been on one in years so it's all very exciting.

What was the best date you've ever been on?

Our anniversary date to see the Moulin Rouge musical from the good seats where the can-can dancers basically force you to look right up their dresses. That was a good date.

What about worst date?

A date where the woman I was with chose the bar we went to, and it just happened to be a place where her ex- was the bartender. It quickly became apparent that she was far more obvious in making him jealous than she actually was in me.

What's the optimal date length?

For some kind of meal, activity, and conversation - probably about 4 hours is good.

What would an ideal date for you look like?

I'm really fighting to not say "April 25."
But see above - meal, activity, and most importantly conversation.

Celebrity dream date?

I think Melanie Lynskey and I would click.

What do you hope to get out of a date? The promise of another? Is sex ok on a first date or do you prefer to wait?

Out of a first date?
Realistically, I think I'd hope for enough of a connection for a second date. If the date went really well and sex was on the table, I wouldn't turn it down. But I wouldn't expect it either.
