What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

[Dayhoosier]

I’m thinking it’s not that I didn’t have hobbies, they just weren’t socially acceptable to discuss.

40+ year old men aren’t typically considered hobbies

Guess like a lot of things it probably depends on who you ask

Does one always deserve what one gets?

Does one always deserve what they get?

I don't think so, for good or ill

 

[AlwaysDancing]

Sometimes it’s like listening to arsonist give advice on how to deal with the tragedy of your home burning down.

 

[Peter_Out]

Ohmygod. Look... I'm sorry, but... I think I just fell out of love with you.

I'm sorry. I hope you'll be okay.

Fuck. I feel so guilty now

She laughed at me. She never loved me. Never cared. It's because my dick is too small. Too large. Too hideous. It must be my dick.

I'm...

 

[Peter_Out]

Does one always deserve what they get?

You might think.

Which I suppose makes me and mine horrible evil goits.

 

[Wand3rlust]

Why do I match with people miles away? It's not going to work - people won't put the effort in.

 

[NakedStoryLover]

I think I'm not as broken as I feared, though I am far, far from OK with what's gone down.

A dating app/website? Can't you specify a maximum distance you're prepared to travel?

 

[ShaneoD]

I should probably follow @EvaLane's example and put the phone down for 30/60 minutes

I'm not quite as extreme as that - milk chocolate is still chocolate, after all! - but I far prefer dark, too. None of that 70+% cacao shi... stuff, though. It still needs to be sweet, because the non-sweet stuff tastes and feels like eating cardboard, to me, but yeah, dark over milk any every day of the week.

I'll endeavor to carry on!

You'll live

No, no *flings his arm across his forehead* I shall die of a broken heart. Alern! All alern.

 

[cheekygirl75]

No, no *flings his arm across his forehead* I shall die of a broken heart. Alern! All alern.

Well, once you're done dying, can you tell me what "alern" means? Is that some British slang I don't know? Google only gives me this, none of which seems relevant:

"Alern" can refer to a few different things: a last name, a Star Wars character, or a musician. As a last name, Alern can be Dutch or German, meaning "noble and hardy," or possibly of Hispanic origin, potentially relating to the "larch" tree. In Star Wars, Therisa Alern was a human intelligence operative. In the musical world, Alern is a Russian musician born in 1994, who began studying music in 2008. There's also Xavier Alern, a guitarist and musicologist known for his work in early music, described on Opus One's website

 

[Peter_Out]

Well, once you're done dying,

Oh, sure. No problem. Hold on. Let me pull myself together.

"Alone". From... wasn't there a film in which an actress, possibly Swedish but I'm not sure, famously said "I want to be alone", but because of her accent it sounds a little like "I vant to be alern". Or something like that. My memory is giving me Hedy Lamar, but I'm not convinced it was her, my brain might just be making shit up, like it does everything else.

Can I go back to my death scene now, please?

That’s a movie deep cut that I don’t know! Yes, you have permission to go back to dying

Greta Garbo

Thank you!

 

[Cruel_summer]

Holiday travelers are extra annoying on the road this morning

 

[Peter_Out]

Oh, charming

 

[cheekygirl75]

Oh, charming

It’s not *charming*girl, it’s Cheekygirl!

 

[Wand3rlust]

A dating app/website? Can't you specify a maximum distance you're prepared to travel?

Yes but why should I limit my options?

'Oh no - 2 buses to get to them? Well, they might be the ideal soul mate for me, but that's just a stretch too far....'

 

[Sexy_Singer]

Does one always deserve what one gets?

No. But it depends on what your talking about too.

 

[Peter_Out]

Yes but why should I limit my options?

But if they won't meet you anyway (more fool them)? And doesn't the match with you indicate that they've set their "maximum distance" too wide?

'Oh no - 2 buses to get to them? Well, they might be the ideal soul mate for me, but that's just a stretch too far....'

Probably a bus or two, an Underground or two, and a train, but yeah, I do get what you mean.

 

[Peter_Out]

It’s not *charming*girl, it’s Cheekygirl!

I stand corrected. Or, given you appear to be carrying a whip, kneeling corrected.
