Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

–noun, plural -nies. 1. the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!†when I said I had to work all weekend.
I'm not posting it for people who have read a psych book.
But their new one is so awesome. I never make it past the first song, since I just put it on loop, but goddamn that's a good one.
You can socialize, but only in groups of more than 5 people. Be approachable, but don't get too close. It will drive you crazy with expectation.
...
I'm well aware of the irony. I've just been there before, and I don't want anyone to have to go through it if they don't have to.
I know it's totally unreasonable -- see, guys, my problem is not ignorance. I already know everything you're telling me.
It just doesn't matter. I'm going to end up doing the dumb, irrational thing, and then six months later I'll look back on it and wonder what the hell I was thinking.
Good advice, but it does not help me when I'm leaving my apartment particularly early and run into her throwing out the trash in her loose PJ's.
Then its a matter of self control, which is just another learnable skill.
edit: Also so you know you were an ass to Yal just then. His age has nothing to do with it.
I'm. So. Fucked.
Go talk to one. Who cares about motivation. Do it because an internet guy told you too.
Awwwwwwww, I didn't mean nothin' by it. Yal's a good guy, and he knows I'd never reveal our IM chatlogs.
Aw man, that sucks.
I had feelings for this girl in first year, and I was pretty sure the feelings were not mutual. I very nearly expressed these feelings, but when I got there her friend was over. I just went back to my room. Oh man, how I was saved.
I stopped hanging out with her when I got back from Christmas vacation. When I saw her again this year, I found her kind of irritating. She also informed me that I was the last person earth that she would have sleep with.
Yeah, but I can tell by the way they dress/etc that probably none of them have what I'm looking for in a girl except for huge jubblies.
See, this is not my problem. If I get rejected, I can move on. Actually, that's not really true, so never mind.
My aunt went and switched my swag bag with my cousin's.
I had my Warhammer Beta thing in there. D:
Do it because TWO internet guys told you two.
Ask if they want to go fly some kites.
The advice of XKCD can never be wrong!!!
@Fireguy -- Your despair nourishes me.
So? Give it a shot anyways! Worst case scenario, you were right. Best case scenario, you end up with <prematurely deleted so as to not enrage The Cat>.
You're making excuses. You'll never find out for sure unless you go talk to them.
I got rejected once.
I slept with her a week later.
They're in a goddam library. What do you want, Einsteins grand daughter.
Thhbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbth.
In recent years, I've found that to be a very bad indicator of personality. Even interesting, smart, engaging girls can dress in stuff from Express or the Gap.
If that's what you're meaning to indicate, at least. I once met a girl that had the classic valley girl accent, but we talked about Carl Rogers and Albert Ellis for hours.
I had like these card codes for that freebie game and all these little bits of info I had collected and ARGH DAMN YOU AUNTIE.
It's the school library. Plenty of people use school (and public) libraries who aren't smart/don't have nerdy interests.
That's it. Keep going.
Yum yum yum.
Does she have huge jubblies?
Seriously. I mean, if clothing was such a strong indicator of personality, nobody would be talking to Incenjucar right now.
Let's just say Newtown can't accurately predict their gravity.
Then yes.
Besides what the romantic comedies and teen soap operas tell you, sometimes you can doom a relationship by expressing your feelings.
In general, you should never seem too interested - and it should never look like you're trying too hard (you can try hard, just don't look like you're trying hard). It's better to wait until you've at least slept together a few times before you start talking about 'feelings'.
