Neckbeards, MRA, TERFs, SJW, bronies?

Have you ever run into any of the above in person? I ask because I have never seen one, but I don't often go to places where the above groups are said to typically gather like conventions or college campuses.

If you have run into any of the above or know someone like that in person, what were they like? I'm not doubting any of the above are internet phenomena, I see them on the internet all the time. But do they live up to the stereotypes in person like they do on the internet?

News stories/events you always wondered about

You know what they say - you never find out how they ended. What are some you've always wondered about?

Things that make you happy/hopeful

[(Anonymous)]

I posted 4 secrets for this week, and so far one a day has run. If this trend continues into tomorrow I'll be able to be here all day for the secret I like most.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm a 22 cis female, and I got really sexual with a 35 year old man last night. It was in his truck. It was manual sex, and he was totally focused on pleasing me, and didn't mind that he didn't get to finish at all (he didn't want to make a mess in the truck).

It was pretty hot.

But he has a girlfriend (ugh, I hate myself right now). And he asked me what I expected from this whole thing, and I wanted to say "nothing, I want to have fun, I don't care. I'm bitter from my abusive, cheating ex boyfriend." but instead told him it was reckless and we're horrible for it and should stop. He respected that and agreed.

He's being very sweet about it and we still talk. He likes asking me about my day and stuff, he tells me about his. We joke around, etc. We've been friends for a few months now, we used to work together.

I feel like shit. I feel hurt that I would even ENTERTAIN the mere thought of hooking up with a man who's involved, let alone actually doing it. I also feel hurt that I've developed feelings for him. As if anything would happen though, I wouldn't be with someone who was cheating on his woman for me.

I keep convincing myself that he's done this before, but I don't know. It's fucked up, but it comforts me feeling like I'm not the only one. I don't want to be the only one.

Anyways. I've only ever been sexual with one man before him, and he was an asshole to me and was not sexually satisfying at all in any way. That relationship lasted 3 and a half years. Not using this as an excuse, just throwing this out there. I don't even know where my behaviour is coming from.

I just thought I'd share. I hope no one shits on me, but it is what it is.

Do you read fic for fandoms you aren't part of?

[(Anonymous)]

And, by "part of," I mean never really seen or read the media on which it's based and you don't interact with the fandom at large. Like, you've only seen fanart for Harry Potter, but you read HP fic anyway. Or, you've only read one Hunger Games book, but you still read fic with spoilers for all three books.

What fandoms and why?

Bright Eyes

[(Anonymous)]

A better song than last night's random song comment.

Favorite Crack Fics

[(Anonymous)]

What are yours?

Phone anxiety?

[(Anonymous)]

Baah... I had an interview a couple weeks back. Thought it went well... or at least okay. Decided to go for the follow-up call.

Well... gah... let's just say curse my phone anxiety. If they were thinking of hiring me before, they sure as hell aren't now.

That thirty seconds was harder than the whole interview and I hate that.

So, what I'm getting at is... anyone else generally fine talking with people, but suddenly feel anxiety when talking on the phone? Like... is that normal? I await the day texts are more acceptable to hiring managers...

Do you disagree with any popular fandom headcanons/interpretations?

Have you accepted Crossfit Jesus as your lord and saviour?

[(Anonymous)]

Just wanted to say how fantastic that match with Cena was last night. Both guys were in fine form. And the new ring gear was just the perfect touch.

Telemarketing Woes

[(Anonymous)]

I had to get nasty (i cussed them out) with a telemarketer today, because they called my house looking for a person who I don't know and that doesn't live at this address and as far as I know never has, but they called LITERALLY A HALF DOZEN TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF ABOUT FIVE HOURS. I had told them every time they had the wrong number, no such person lives here,and they still continued to call. I hated to be nasty but goddammit wtf, does anyone know if there is anything I can do to get these shitbag fuckfaces to stop fucking calling me?????? This has been going on, off and on, for months and I am sick of it!

Getting used to anime's stylistic elements

[(Anonymous)]

To all people who didn't grow up watching anime and had to accustom themselves to all the very different narrative and animation conventions -- do you remember becoming first acclimated to it? Want to share memories of the things that jarred you the most, or the things you got used to much faster than you expected?

Characters whose clothes don't match their personalities

[(Anonymous)]

Just list (and describe of course) any characters that come to mind who, in your opinion, have personalities that don't stereotypically "fit" their way of dressing (or their hair, makeup, whatever) at all.

Keep in mind, this is NOT necessarily a bad thing! In fact it can be really good and a neat bit of adding layers to characterization.

Cutest or Sexiest eyes

[(Anonymous)]

Which fictional character(s) has the cutest or sexiest eyes, in your opinion?

This includes animated characters.

Hottest smutfic ever

[(Anonymous)]

If you have an opinion on this -- and I'm sure most people don't because they can't remember/choose -- here's an opportunity to give it!

Weird tiny things that bug you about adaptations

[(Anonymous)]

Not the big "omg they changed this huge thing!" complaints, I mean the teeny-tiny complaints that just niggle at you but are too small to really be a serious complaint

Fuck his ass or fuck his asshole?

[(Anonymous)]

Which sounds hotter?
