> college, around 2009
> meet a girl who's fun, reads a lot, helps me out of my shell quite a bit
> we hang out a lot, first girl I've ever done this with so not sure what the protocols are or whatever, that socially retarded that I can't see that she likes me
> she messages me online once and says "I really like you, anon" shortly followed afterwards with "Haha I'm kidding I joke about that with everyone t b h haha"
> pin drops and I think she likes me
> next week she's parading around how she just discovered she's a lesbian
> "o-oh ok..."
> week afterwards she gets a boyfriend

Not quite put myself out there ever since. Probably read more to compensate for lack of success with women (women have flirted with me plenty of times but I rarely have the confidence to ask them out and they're not so fond of making the first move either, so I tend to bond with a woman who clearly likes me in that way but it never goes beyond a 2 month friendship). I've found a feeling of comfort with the more I read though and I'm more comfortable with myself living quietly alone.

> watch The Needle Drop podcast ft Sam Hyde
> literally first ten minutes is Jamaican accent and saying how cool guns are
> Hyde literally hijacked a Heidecker podcast on Facebook to rant how Heidecker got him blacklisted and fuck Brett Gelman dude lmao

Sam could've been an interesting development in indie / YouTube comedy but instead every opportunity he just tries pushing an agenda and when questioned on it, he says "nah dude I was just joking lmao dude niggers"

This genuinely made me cry a little as I had a little dog but he had to be put down two years ago and he was the best goofball exactly as this post would suggest.

>200 years after you die retards who think they're smart because they watch Colbert will say you should be expunged from history because you didn't hold modern ideas about feminism and """diversity""" and will hold up the man you fought hard to keep aristocracy and elitism out of your new nation as a hero because a sassy gay Mexican wrote a play about him where he's portrayed as a quippy rapper and dancer
