Not normally a word I use to describe myself, but what the hell. Today, I told a girl that I still liked her. We went to school together in the 9th grade, went to homecoming together, and even went on a date (both of our firsts, turns out) before she moved to Washington, near Seattle. I haven't seen her since, but recently she got in touch with me. She still lives in Washington, and doesn't know where she'll be working once she gets a job, but that's not the point. The point is that for once, it felt natural talking to a member of the opposite sex about "feelings". Her reaction didn't hurt either.

what about seven years?
and who says I would want to date a 15 year old anyway?
wait... don't answer that, I know you.
Yeah... idealized versions of people are bad. Especially pedophilic (sp./is that a word?) idealized versions.
Congrats on the positive reaction though; that is always exciting and wonderful feeling.
It's a shame you aren't exactly the long distance type, and Washington state is pretty close to being as far away as possible in the continental 48 states...
If nothing else, she's another person I can talk to. No, I'm not a long-distance relationship person, and I'm smart enough to realize this, but I am going to be honest with people, even if I haven't seen them in years. So here goes.
Ben: We've had enough. Give the two prongs back to whoever you took them from; they're starting to rot and no longer serve the purpose they once did.
Tim: Leran how to tyep on teh keybaord.
Anna: Stop hoarding cats. Other people are hungry too.
Kayla: I haven't seen you write one half-decent novel on the effects of soil-erosion on pop culture, so stop going to these book-signings and trying to pass yourself off as the author. I had a dream where I did that once, and the end result isn't pretty.
Parker: Stop trying to hook me up with your dog. We've been over this.
so in conclusion, I've got nothing.
Ben, I almost peed my pants that was so funny.
The book signing thing seemed a bit random, but now I'm just motivated to write that damn book just to spite you.
While we're all being honest here... I would like to add that Ben is fucking hilarious, and it's gonna be HILARIOUS when Fuzzy is 40 still wearing the Tarzan outfit around even though he's since gotten way too fat to be seen in it.
It'll be like Jim Morrison still wearing his tight leather pants after he got big; only it'll be worse b/c Fuzzy isn't cool like Morrison. Celebrities can get by with that stuff sometimes, normal people can't; nobody wants to see aging no-name hipsters wearing dresses.
Honestly, I don't know where all this hipster stuff is coming from. I listen to very little jazz and swing. Are you refering to the new 1990s and 2000s usage dealing with indie rock and emo? While yes, I listen to some indie rock, I don't listen to emo, nor do I follow any of the lifestyles associated with those cultures. Besides, how would people even know about 'aging hipsters' if they've been around for only a decade or so. I am neither a new-age nor an old-school hipster.
And I haven't worn that tarzan outfit in a long time.
Do your research, there are much better ways to attack me.
And Kayla, if you write the book, I will be the first to get it autographed.
Ben: you're so smart, astute, and cute; let's have children together.
using that definition, wouldn't most of us fit the bill?
on the other hand, there's a difference between rejecting established culture and not blindly following social norms. I adopt the parts of culture that I feel are appropriate, and improvise the rest. I do, however, advocate extreme liberalism in politics, and to some degree lifestyle (it works for me, but may not work for everyone else) so I fit half the description.
ah man... now im just picturing ducore, overweight and wearign the tarzan outfit, stubling around like a drugged up Jim Morisson mumbling about how much better music was in his day and complaining that the governnent is intercepting his brain waves.... Hilarious
Hehehehe... You're welcome Tim. Now, you can think of that instead of Ducore nude! =Þ
