See?
girls have morals. All the lads up there ^ were saying it's probably okay.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 22:57, 2 replies, latest was 15 years ago)
I, famously, have morals and no standards.
My best friend who's not on here has standards, but no morals.

Her way is probably much more fun than either of ours :(

(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:03, Reply)
What's your way?
Are you one of those people with morals AND standards?

To be honest she gets a lot of attention because she's stunning.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:04, Reply)
I would like to think I am
but looking back on my love life it has been somewhat dubious. Definitely more morals than standards though, I can count on one hand the times I've been naughty and the guilt I felt was horrendous.

Your friend sounds like Applebite! And to be fair, I think if I was stunning it would probably be the other way round, more standards than morals...

I've not been consistently truly bad, but the worst thing I've done is dreadful, horrendous and waaaaay too long to recount on here
It's basically 3 years of mental and 2 years of attempted atonement that made shit worse.

I'm a firm believer of "I want the person I like to be happy"- it's often evident that they're not going to be happy with me, so I try to encourage them (if I'm still friendly) to make themselves happy. This sounds very emo and self-indulgent, but hey. I do my best to be a nice person and after the dreadful thing mentioned before I think I've got a lot to make up.

This is a fair mantra for life.
If nothing else, you get the moral high-ground and get to keep your self-respect in tact.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:20, Reply)
I then balance shit out by doing stupid things and destroying my self-respect
or telling people how I really feel about them.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:22, Reply)
Do you tell them both good and bad, or just good?

(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:24, Reply)
Well it's generally bad as it was "I still love you" and then he shouted at me and I told him that I cried every time he left me and I wouldn't cry this time
and I didn't for 3 days and then I got drunk and I cried for about 2 hours on a street in Soho.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:28, Reply)
Poor you.
And this is when you've let someone go so they'll make themself happy?
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:33, Reply)
I never let go of that one.

(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:47, Reply)
Not at all
I think anyone who cares about anyone else would want them to be happy. I do think you take it too far though sometimes, in that you let other people use you to make them happy whilst making yourself sad.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:22, Reply)
I'm generally a maudlin person.
I never cried as a baby, I think I've more than made up for it now. Though I did have a period of six months when no matter what I did I didn't cry. That broke spectacularly at my grandmother's house, and I had to hide at the bottom of the garden behind the washing where no one could see or hear me.

Who said it was okay?
Not me.

Are you a 'lad', old man? :P

I'm a GEEZER!
Well, bitter old man really but, well, never mind

Oh shush
both you and I know you're a floppy haired youth.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:20, Reply)
I've had a trim since you last saw my hair.
I'm thinking I'm due a change.

Any suggestions?
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:23, Reply)
Just don't shave it all off
I think you'd look ill. You did look like Dougal when I saw you in Bristol, so as long as it's shorter than that!
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:26, Reply)
I think the floppy haired days are behind me now.
Something far more fitting for someone of my senior years is in order.

why so grumpy about your age, Jeff? You're younger than loads of people on here.

I'm just getting aware that I'm closer to 40 than 30.
That's all.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:36, Reply)
So?
Is 40 the magic 'now I'm old!' number?
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:42, Reply)
Well, it doesn't suggest
Binge drinking, nightclubs and mis-behaving. Which is my usual trick.

I hate nightclubs, and I'm 20*
it's all relative innit


*looking in the mirror I could pass for a 30 year old who just had their first child
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:48, Reply)
Bollocks you could
There's no way I could go out drinking and dancing every week but I do get the urge to go clubbing and get my boogie on from time to time.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:53, Reply)
The photo's from Poppet's bash, I look OLD and there's definitely some baby-bump going on there
I'm not 100% keen on them. If the company's good they're ok, but I have to get horrendously pissed to have a good time, and that's never a good sign.

The last time I really enjoyed semi-sober clubbing was a few months ago. That WAS fun.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:56, Reply)
I still enjoy them*.
That's the problem.

*Some of them, if it's my sort of music.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:53, Reply)
What is your kind of music?
I can never really be bothered with youtube disco.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:56, Reply)
Aw, you should try it one time
it's often just Jeff and I bouncing britpop tracks...

I'll wade in with my stupid bleepy music
My "people who inspire me" on facebook is the lead singer of my favourite band. When Charmander saw it, she commented that "naked men and glitter" pretty much sum me up.

I'm a bit in love with him

I like beepy music too
but who is that guy?

Kevin Barnes of of Montreal fame

Indie/BritPop and all associated shit.
This 90s with a bit of late 80s and the odd current one.

I've no idea what genre my tastes are. Favourite band mentioned in the post above have had so many albums they start of twee-Beatles inspired and end with fusion funk.

Meh, grow old disgracefully
who have you got to prove or explain yourself to? You look more early 30's than mid-to-late.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:49, Reply)
Too kind.
But I'm not fishing for compliments.

When you chat to someone in a club, who, clearly looks older than they are, and they say 'I'm 23' all I can think if, 'Fuck me, I probably delivered a paper to your pregnant mother'.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:52, Reply)
I didn't think you were
nor would I say it just to placate you. If I didn't think that, I wouldn't say it.
I'd worry more about the women you're chatting up, if they're only 23 but look well haggard. And besides, if you actually meet someone you like who's younger, does it really matter if there's an age gap?
(, Wed 19 Jan 2011, 0:03, Reply)
Not answering this.

You look early 30s though so it's ok

you don't look 40 either.
(, Tue 18 Jan 2011, 23:53, Reply)
You horrible woman.
You manage to reassure Lampy she doesn't look 30, and now you're saying she doesn't look 40.

What are you saying? She looks FIFTY?

I look nothing like my driver ID
Mind you, that was taken nearly 10 years ago and I don't have a beard.

That said, Beekers looks like a Mexican rapist on his, it's fucking hilarious.

I look nothing like mine
the photo in my drivers license was taken just before my 16th birthday - that's nearly a decade ago :(
