There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

I jizzed my pants when I saw the new star wars trailer

They're just gonna fuck it up.

As a side note, I've been spreading rumors on FB that Disney has made Chewbacca a transgender wookie, which has been having the desired effect on the brogressives.

That's so beautiful.

As far as I know, there is no visible difference between male and female wookies, so people can have fun refuting this.

well, i seem to be having a small emotional spiral and none of the people i usually talk to when this happens are picking up their phones. This will be an interesting night.

:sad:

Feel free to vent here if you think it will help.
Basically dealing with the realization that i have head-over-heels feelings for one of my friends, yet i can't really say anything about it to her because i feel it'll only make things awkward, since she lives so far away that a relationship would be nearly impossible.

I don't know whether this would be a good time to mention that until four months ago Alty lived in Alaska, which actually is impossible.

Of course, I didn't fall for him until he moved here, but still. Things change. What if she has feelings for you too? What if one or the other of you is open to a move? Basically all I'm saying is that if it's a solid friendship, it will rebound from the awkwardness, and if there's a possibility of it working out, why not take the chance?

At least mention that you have a crush on her, that's something that can easily be glossed over if it's not reciprocal.

I just moved across the country because of love.  Long distance is frustrating, but that doesn't mean it is not worth exploring.

hmm, i see your point. But maybe i should wait a bit until i'm more...established? Like, when i have a more to...offer, i guess? Like, it seems that i would be in a poor position to suggest a move or something like that without the wherewithal to back it up. So yea, just keep hanging out with her when i can, work on myself for now, and dont lose hope seems to be the plan for now. than ks for the advice you guys. :D

Quote...The male will capture it using only his bare hands and kill it without using a weapon. He then presents it to his intended bride. If she accepts the proposal, she will bite into the creature's soft belly.

Well that went in an unexpected direction.

As long as you're OK with the fact that the waiting road leads directly to her finding someone else.
