BF2S Forums Good things that have happened in your life lately

Have you given any thought to the possibility that some force, be it whatever you want to call it, it pushing you and the Asian girl together? I am not talking about just the Tinder algorithm. Like, where did you get the idea that Korea was where you wanted to go? What gave you the idea that you needed to leave the U.K.?

We all know the one true deity is named chuyskywalker.

strictly, no. i’ve wanted to live in a foreign country for most of my 20s but have had to keep a tight orbit around my family and friends. my best friend moved to korea straight after university and spent his 20s moving from place to place: he said korea was his favourite by quite a margin (and he’s not a ‘korea boo’ anything like that).

i mean, if you’re going to move away as an experiment or experience or whatever, the list of viable countries is not that long if you want to maintain modern-city living. japan and korea are going to appear on every list.

korean girls are stunning. it has like the highest beauty standards (and biggest cosmetics industry) of like anywhere. it’s hard to find a korean who isn’t well-dressed and concerned with their appearance to some degree. no surprises a red-blooded male will get tangled with a few.

the likelihood of the above story is incredibly rare and does make me laugh. it’s quite astonishing. but i’m not being guided to another country by god for the sake of one girl. it’s a plan i’ve had on the back burner for the better part of a decade.

why do i want to leave the U.K. or live in another country? i don’t know, i think this is quite a strange question for a european, where perhaps most americans are incurious by contrast. the desire to escape my known environment and culture? to get outside the box for a while? to experience a totally different life for a bit before i choose where, and in what fashion, to settle down? to challenge myself? or, from another angle: the fact the U.K. has been a depressing place to be these last few years? feelings of decline? no-deal brexit and poor prospects? stagnant wages? looming recession? generational apathy? or, more personally: the fact i’ve had to sacrifice and suspend so many of my own ambitions in my 20s, the fact i’ve lived in suspended grief over my brother, etc?

i mean, just on a basic level, it seems crazy to me that someone wouldn’t want to move away for at least a phase of their life. it’s a story and trajectory as old as the homeric epic. wanderlust, man!

besides, everyone knows that conatus is the principle
of the universe.

bristol is extremely sunny, dipshit! the south-west of the UK, cornwall especially, is pretty warm and temperate in the summer. it's right there in the gulf stream baby! azure blue waters and wide open skies. bristol is a very 'outdoors', european-style city. people just congregate around the water and eat and drink alfresco through summers.

my apartment is all of 4 minutes' walk from here.

you're trying way too hard in that last paragraph. it's not good writing. feather the pedals, man, feather them!

Maybe you can arrange for androo to have his dick commented on free of charge

anyway. this is now a developing news story. she got in contact today and sent me a picture from a -10 freezing itaewon.









yes, bf2s, i will keep you posted. dilbert, want to be my best man? you could do with getting out the house.

Are you the green text or the white text.

dilbert tries to figure out whatsapp, a popular messaging service from 2009.

i couldn’t care less if it is or not. you probably think people are doing drug deals over popular messaging apps. very quaint.

whatsapp became popular literally over a decade ago in an era when free messaging via data was novel. i mean, i remember having to top-up my phone with credit in my undergrad days because each text - and most people uses texts - cost money. where have you been for 10 years?! other than not messaging people.

I learned from an expat Youtuber that apparently Whatsapp and similar messaging services are much more common outside the US as the main modality for communicating. SMS text messages became way less popular for the average person. I do use Snapchat and FB Messenger with my friends much more regularly than previously, but texting still seems the norm. Maybe it's associated with drug dealers and burner phones here because there's not a market share among hoi polloi idk.

Snow

Snow while work from home is pretty legit. I felt like a kid again playing with the snow in my backyard today. Don't have to shovel out a car because I don't have anywhere I need to go.

Salt corrodes underside of cars in our area regardless of what you do.

Anyway more good news. Starting Wednesday I will be on break until Jan. 4th. I got a new vape pen in my life too. Going to play video games and get high. Thank you taxpayers.

Another unfun fact: NFL cheerleaders had to use legal means to get NFL teams to stop treating them like slaves.

The Washington Football Team owner was also treating them like party favors for wealthy donors.

Of course it's antiquated, and as a result, beloved by people with antiquated social sensibilities.

An NFL player kneeled for the national anthem and it resulted in snowflakes destroying their Nike gear. You think they will just roll over and let you take their eye candy?
