Opened a set of girls with my Eris...

[OfTheDamned]

But that's exactly my point. There is no reason for a guy to go to a lesbian bar with those intentions. I've been to lesbian bars a lot but would never hit on anyone in there. It's just not appropriate IMO. Not that I wasn't attracted to some of them, but if you are accepted into a lesbian bar, it's hands off. Just as silly for straight girls to go unless they are with a friend. Although on second thought I have gone to gay bars hundreds of times just to hang. (And meet the girls that go there to not meet any guys Yes, I got asked to dance a lot too.

Oh, I never said it wasn't pointless and it could be dangerous for some too. Some of those girls are the man hater types. I've seen guys get there butts kicked for messing with the wrong girl. I was just saying that guys aren't forbiden from going in.

What, that I am gay? I don't try to hide that. I talk about my girlfriend all the time on here.

Hey MOD. How about closing this stupid thread. I don't want to hear about members' proclivities.

Then stop opening the thread jackass.

I agree.

But I also see merit in the way the thread was started here; good forums of a basically technical nature always have a frivolous thread or two. The moderators are then challenged, though, to keep it somewhat related to the general subject(s) of the area, plus to keep it civil, etc.

That sort of reaction, and language, trashes the whole forum, the whole website, no matter what thread you post it in.

Come on, lighten up. It's a forum and it's fun sometimes. All work and no play... well you get the idea.

Someone read The Game. Nice use of words haha

Yeah, but I just realized something. The title of the thread, "Opened a set of girls" begs what's being discussed here. So really, if you don't want to read something that is obviously unrelated to the tech portion of this forum, then just don't open it. It's really a no brainer. To ask the mod to close it is kind of selfish, don't you think?

Really? You didn't appear to have any problems with this thread when you commented before. What could have changed your mind?

That point could have been put in the thread in a manner other than with use of the term, "jackass," aimed at another member.

The relative selfishness of wanting a thread closed, pivoting on the user's choice of opening the thread or not based on the thread title, falls aside when we see something contrary to the user agreement we all agreed to as we registered here.

The sexuality expressed in here was mild as the thread title, and quite mild up until the discussion became focussed on gay bars, etc. At that point, in my opinion, the fun of the thread here, loosely based on the use of an Eris to meet people in a bar, ended.

Not a bad Lounge thread, though.

1. Jackass. Yes, agree. But it could have been much, much worse. I kinda like the term jackass but I hear ya.

2. User agreement. Legalese.

3. Gay bars. Very much fun. Try it, you'll like it.

4. Not a bad lounge thread. Oh man, you can say that again.

First up, we don't discriminate here on AF. Everyone is welcome regardless of age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, hair colour etc etc. Nothing in this thread gets anywhere near overstepping the site rules..... except the fact that it's drifted way off the forum topic. That's certainly no grounds for closing it. If you don't like the content then move onto the next thread - simple.

As suggested, I'll move this to the Lounge so that the discussion can continue. The thread will be monitored though, and if there's any hint of innuendo, discrimination or disrespect it will be shut down and the big stick wielded. I'm trusting everyone to behave like grown-ups.... please don't disappoint me.

Thanks, mod. Now where were we?.... Hey one thing. OTD, I looked at the cell signal thing and mine said 0%. Is that good or bad? My battery life is sick. Some nights I hate plugging it in just to see what happens. Spare parts says 89% left and I've been on this baby all day. I'd easily be on battery #2 by now.

Wow, that is really good. 0% is were you want it. I would say that you don't need to worry aboit it.

Kinda figured that after reading through the original thread. Really the only thing that drains my phone now is actually talking on it. This thread was more fun in the main forum. Oh well, at least they didn't lock it.

Then stop opening the thread jackass.

Sorry princess...

Take note please, and keep any banter on friendly terms.

 

[bjanow]

Hey funny thing happened tonight. I turned off my phone, actually a reboot. It was getting laggy. I said, wtf, can't hurt. When I turned it back on the battery was showing a greater charge. Stayed that way all night. Just plugged it in. Pandora on. Goodnight.
