The Breakup Thread

[Tom Riley]

*cough cough cough cough*

Hmm, what?

 

[AstroSmurf]

^ Done.

(God I feel so old right now. *sigh* You all are just kids.)

 

[Tom Riley]

Well I don't know how old you are but you certainly don't look old.

 

[NickInABox]

Know what The BBS needs? A Facebook thread.

 

[AstroSmurf]

Thank you. But try 35. I still own shoes and two pairs of jeans that are older than both you and Nick.

Well there is that Facebook Ethics thread in here

Thank you. But try 35. I still own shoes and two pairs of jeans that are older than both you and Nick.

You still fit into jeans from before you were 15?

And 35 isn't old.

Yes I do. Actually I was heavier then than I am now but they still fit.

 

[Tom Riley]

Either you were tall for a 15 year old, or you are short now, or I just had my growth spurt unusually late and can't compare.

 

[AstroSmurf]

I am a small person. I have been the same height since seventh grade... a whole whopping 5'7".

 

[Tom Riley]

I'm only 5'8" so I'm not far off But I didn't hit 5'8" until i was 17...

 

[TrekkieMonster]

First of all, Nick, I'm sorry. I know it's rough. I've been there, though it's been awhile now. I popped in here foolishly thinking I might be able to offer some "wise old gay man ... er ... wisdom", but I see I'm a little late. You seem to be on top of things. Good for you!

So, I'll just move on to ....

^ Done.

(God I feel so old right now. *sigh* You all are just kids.)

You, be quiet! I could be your father (and if I were I think I'd be compelled to name you Luke, but that's a thread for a different forum.)

Okay, I'm not quite that old, but I feel it sometimes, especially where the whole MyTwitterLinkedBook is concerned. All these people want me to join, but I just feel so ... [kirk]... old ....[/kirk]

And with respect to this little exchange ...

Will you two just get a room!?!?

 

[NickInABox]

Welcome to the Q Continuum!


I'm Q. I'd like you to meet Q, and over there is Q. If there's anything you need, just ask Q.

 

[Tom Riley]

Like, seriously, are we able to make our own groups on this board? The Q Continuum is something I seriously would join.

 

[NickInABox]

Settle down Q, you and Q will be able to eventually. I hope.

Dude i'm 5'6" so ...


Oh and Nick, yeah that was me adding you to FB.

 

[TorontoTrekker]

Also, BBS faggots, I think we should start our own group:
The Q (for Queer) Continuum.

Brilliant, no?

I was the moderator for a group on Yahoo by that name. It started with a bunch of us who met one year at Toronto Trek. The next year, I threw a room party at the con and it kind of took off (our room parties became legendary... they stopped the year I co-chaired the con and was too busy, and nobody wanted to step up ).

Thank you. But try 35. I still own shoes and two pairs of jeans that are older than both you and Nick.

Pfft. Young'un. :P

(I have at least one shirt in my closet that's 25 years old. Mind you, it's a hockey jersey with the number on the back being that of someone I used to know who played goal for the New Jersey Devils in the NHL. I'm not sure what happened to the older jerseys from when he played for Winnipeg and Minnesota, though. I never did get his Edmonton Oilers jersey, but I think he only actually played one game for them.)

You, be quiet! I could be your father (and if I were I think I'd be compelled to name you Luke, but that's a thread for a different forum.)

Indeed. Pass the Metamucil.

(I console myself on the age issue by reminding myself that I have a hot young bf. )

If break-ups hurt, do as I do: don't date!










Just get laid and that's it!

OOOOO, yeah. Maybe THAT'S what I need! But, I don't know if The Hubby would approve.

Tried that; it's how I wound up with the aforementioned Hubby.

Seriously. I'd been through a brutal break up. Broke my freakin' heart all to pieces. I was inconsolable for months, couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, lost a ton of weight. A friend went through the same thing about a month later.

Finally we made a pact: no more "boyfriends". We were only out to get laid. Started going out on the town every weekend with only one thing on our minds. And we were VERY successful. Well, I shouldn't speak for him; but I was.

Then I met this cute boy who melted my heart. And we started dating. Exclusively. Seventeen years later, here I am.

But for awhile there ....

 

[Roshi]

Dammit! You mean that's what's around the corner? Good Lord!

Great idea.
