hello, fellow kids!
I've found that using up valuable time and energy being upset about the inevitable is not a good use of my resources.
You should in fact be upset that you look your age.
I get told I look younger than my age all the time. Not sure what you're on about.
Aren't four day stag dos a bit 1990s?
People go on yoga retreats now.

the last one i went on was 3 days in Vegas. Some people don't get out much for whatever reason, so a bach party (or stag do, apparently) is a good excuse to get them out.
I think i have one coming up soon. Probs be a weekend bender. It's pretty common. Don't be a hater just because you guys don't have friends or are too old to have friends getting married.

people go on four-day stag dos and then go to yoga retreats.
funnily enough the hen do was something like a holistic retreat in surrey. my friend, for better or for worse, is from essex, god's country, and there's a lot of unreconstructed people from essex. come to think of it, it probably was done in the spirit of the 1990s.
my last stag do before that, also from my university cohort, was a weekend trip down to margate to recreate an only fool's and horses episode from before any of us were born. i think this whole weekend boozing trip thing is possibly ironic and filtered through three generations of hipster appropriation. i can't even tell what's real anymore.
and yes, ken's right, it's one of those rare occasions in busy career-chasing middle age when huge groups of people get together. some are already shacked up in couples and don't come to regular drinks or events. others are living far away for work/studies. others are just embracing living alone or generally being a little less social and outgoing. there are no other occasions like weddings for getting 20-30 people together.

Male to male bonding and relationships are awful experiences to go through without drugs and alcohol or strippers/prostitutes like the ones on CNN.
Sit together and play Magic the Gathering? Why the hell would I want to do that while sober?

I used to go for mountain-biking weekends with my school/university-friends, no need for drugs or strippers or alcohol - just chocolate hob-nobs.

The idea of drinking for 3-4 days straight terrifies me.
yes, i’m not incapable of socialising with my friends or going away for weekends without drugs and alcohol. but stag do’s are always a bit performative, a bit ironic, a bit of a jape, aren’t they? my friend’s a political consultant with two degrees but we led him around on his own personal costa del sol trip. purposefully tasteless.
i’m very glad you once had a social hobby. just a shame you never bonded over finer pleasures and points of conversation, like culture, which is something that has evidently been missing from vast swathes of your experience.
Glad you're concerned for my welfare.
Fuck Israel
Speaking of culture this is impressive
Fuck Israel
you are such a fucking creep.
Someone made an art what are you talking about.

now i can’t check this thread at work when i’m bored, all because an un-sexed cubicle loser spends his spare time perving on weird cosplay and tattoo forums.
Once some poor idiot puts a baby into that low self esteem whore all of her tattoos are going to look like shit.
All "thick" girls are going to be blimps some day if you aren't careful with them.

Is there really a difference between cosplay and larping? I'm not sure.

I think the context is the activity.
i bought a nice coat as an over layer for a very rainy wedding this weekend. cost about 800 € from paris.
the top button has popped off on the way to the wedding. first time wearing it.
frankly thank god for brexit. shocking quality.

i got back from the wedding weekend and they'd already sent me some replacement buttons and a form to invoice them for the repair work.
OK, first world problem with first world solution.
