'Thanks. Vernacular from other countries always gets stick in my head once I start thinking about it.
Thank you! This has been bugging me for weeks. if you don't mind, I've got another--shit or shite?
I know there are a few of you floating around here and I simply have to know if you guys say ass or arse? And if you use both, where would I hear which?
I really should've done more drugs when I was younger.

I hate most women in independent publishing. They are such fucking stereotypes that they're actually pushing women into this very vapid and insulting box that they don't even realize it. And they...
It is so rare that I type out an LOL while actually laughing, that I quoted you just to say that it made me laugh. I'm not reading the pages--and they're pages I'm sure--of back and forth here, but...
From what I've seen? HA!. You're very even keeled from what I have gleamed. But then again, this is the internet and empathy works best in a face-to-face setting. But I would caution you. Some of us...
It still makes women look sexy. Is it because we can read your mind? -------------------------------------------------------------------- People's sensitivities and the need to protect...
Most score pieces for film fall into the realm of generic and cheap-to-produce composition. This obviously falls into that category. There are only a few composers who score for film that really...
Disclaimer: I know the example I'm using in this post is pedestrian at best, but it is what pushed this thought forth so that's why it's being included. End of the year and I've found myself with...
I used to vehemently say that I didn't have a type and was open to pretty much everything. And for a long time that was true. However, even going back to my childhood, I've always had a physical...
Said a potential rapist.
It used to be pumpkin, but it got burnt so the chef threw it away without another thought. The pie slowly died at the bottom of the trashcan, weighed down by more interesting garbage that once served...
This is a very detached position. Not only would the removal of money do nothing to change the selling of sex, but you fail to see how sex is used as social currency without the aid of any industry....
Take any form of media, books, film, music, games, and tell me what people like. Do people want to play a text adventure like Depression Quest where you explore the psychological nature of...
So in essence it's like managing several relationships at the same time? With varying degrees of importance or connection to you? That seems a bit complicated, like it would require a great deal of...
Knowing too much. There is virtue in pain and growth in the suffering that comes with knowing more than one should. Ignorance breeds solipsism which is unhealthy and breeds contempt in people. It'll...
I'd advise against shoehorning in on his time with his friends and family. It's important for people to have space between them. As an INFP, you should be able to appreciate the sacred nature of...
^^Polyamory, to me, seems like such a headache in the making. Perhaps it's my stubbornness, but when I'm in a fixed relationship I'm pretty stern on the monogamous part. Sleeping around and/or fuck...
But it exists. There is porn directed towards an emotional and realistic experience of sex. The entire point of the industry is that it caters to everyone. Keep in mind that if you're not looking for...
I was mostly referencing the tone in the OP. If I would've taken issue with you I would've quoted you and pointed it out directly. I've got nothing against preference, as I have my own and I...
Yeah, I'm not sure where the acting like a child thing comes into being an INFP. I've always been told that I came off as too serious or mature for my age, aging me quite a bit in context to my...
If you shield your children from violence as a means of making them better you'll effectively rip out the heaviest chunk of good fiction in any medium. The fetishization of violence and its...
I love how people take the high road on promiscuity like it's a badge of honor, something to be praised and patted on the head for. A woman or a man is no less a person if they've only fucked one...
It's pretty selfish to claim that anyone has the right to someone's body other than the body itself. Anything anyone wants to do to themselves concerns themselves primarily. This is true for everyone.
He turned and saw her sitting crosslegged on the bed, sleepily scratching her stomach with burgundy nails. Neuromancer by William Gibson Hmm... that says something about me.

Moby Dick is actually about capitalism and the destructive ends one (Ahab and his financial backers) will go in the pursuit of a goal (greed and control, the extinction of the 'other,' of...
You don't. You just have to make yourself available and hope we feel the need to reach out, because our type doesn't like to burden others with our damage.

Less of an opinion, more of an observation--after a certain age, people care significantly less for sufferers of depression and those who commit suicide. IT seems the sting is removed once the signs...
I would say it is less about inability and more about practicality. I need tech to communicate, perform work, stay informed--it would make things much more difficult if I didn't have tools at my...
In time, breaks from technology will involve a plane ticket to Zambia. I really don't see how I could go a day with a break from some kind of tech, and I live as a minimalist.
I was like you too... then I got a kindle. It makes my bookshelf feel kind of wasteful. Not only do I have my entire library in my hand, I've got another 300+ books on there waiting for me to chop...
I'd be surprised if the printed book lasts the end of the century. Paper simply cannot match up to the convenience of a screen, digital delivery, and instantaneous satisfaction and availability.
Women who write and/or read romance novels should really be ashamed of themselves for perpetuating a bad stereotype. Authors need to cool it with the BDSM theme already. I get that in any branch...
There's nothing to save, let's get that right first. The world is alive--an organism all its own. She is indifferent to your existence, mine, and that of humanity as a whole. The world is the...

That was about it, I'd had it. Put down my glass, time to fold her tent. But she stood, came to me, said, 'Fuck me rough.' Before I could reply, she put her hand on my crotch, pulled the zip...
I'm not going to, but I desperately want to know what other people will say in response to you. The internet hasn't given me a treat like this in a long time.
That's actually how all my writing goes. It's a symptom of not outlining. I've researched this pretty well, and none of my favorite writers outline their work. They merely get an idea and type away...
I never been able to write kids, and I started writing seriously at twelve. It's like I can't relate tot he character. Stayed in, got work done, and I'm finally past the 10G mark. It's like the...
Don't you find it difficult to write children? I do. I find ti restrictive and can't seem to find a place to put them, so they wind up in the background or not at all. But you're making a...
*Shrugs* Thats fair.
Never read it. I preferred Marlowe and Spade. They were smarter, more introspective, and were more influential to the modern detective than Holmes has been. As a speculative fiction author, I...
I get that, it's just that I don't think it's compelling to read about that kind of protagonist. The need for mass interaction to function reads kind of cheap and woks better in a visual medium than...
It's not so much that they can't be compelling, but rather that the character would get on my nerves so it would be me half-assing him and producing something poor or abandoning the project...
Yeah, I had to learn a lot about temperance in my 10+ years in writing. I think the foundation of a paragraph has to be considered just good enough before moving on to the next, and editing should be...'
