Astrella and Helio's link: that's so, so cool. Great father/son bonding experience, and equally great message. We need more dads like him in the world. :smallsmile:
@Pair'o'Dice: many of the stories you tell about yourself in this forum amuse me so much. This is one of them. :smallbiggrin:
@Lilac: :smallfrown:
*also offers hugs, plus cookies*

If it's the terminology you're talking about then - something happened to Lilac Shade, probably something related to transphobia and that caused a lot of very dark and scary thoughts. Which is why I brought very dark and comforting chocolate.

Ah, thank you. Just more than a month ago, I had no idea what any of this all meant. I'm still a bit fuzzy on a couple of terms.
Also, if that's the case, Lilac needs a lot mroe *hugs*

But I haven't had good chocolate in weeks! I left some there for her.

I have still no answer from my friend, and now she's away for three weeks, visiting her grandma and going on vacation with her mum. And I miss her already. :smallfrown:

Of course, that made coming out to them amusing as well:
Friend: Man, [Dice], you have
no idea how annoying it can be to be mistaken as gay when you're
actually straight, especially when no one will come out and say why. :smallsigh:
Me: Tell me about it. I know how annoying it can be to be mistaken as straight when you're
actually gay, especially when you come out and say so.
Other Friend: Wow, happened to you too? Isn't that a coinci--waaaait a minute.... :smallconfused:

Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
PairO'Dice has all the best coming out stories.
Is it just me, or do kobolds seem to fill a "whatever" slot? Ogres are big, tough, unintelligent; goblins are small, green, and some type of crafty; kobolds are... whatever the world needs. Stupid mining ratpeople, brilliant trapbuilding mini-dragons, multiheaded dogpeople...?
Hugs to those who want/need them :smallsmile:

Wikipedia says Kobolds used to just be small humanoid German sprites.
It also has an article on Kobolds in gaming.

Not actually multi-headed, in the 1st picture I provided, there were just 5 kobolds behind each other with their heads sticking out. They're no hydra. :smallwink:
But yeah, kobolds have very few universal properties. They tend to be somewhat mentally-challenged, on the short side, and fond of outnumbering their enemies (whether that strategy works is another story), but other than that, no one can agree on their general physical appearance. *shrugs*
Few other generic fantasy creatures have vague descriptions like that. There are dragons (so, SO many kinds, of all the colors of the rainbow, and more!), and the fae (which can readily be explained by their capricious and chaotic nature) that I know of, in supplement to kobolds. And trolls, too, who are territorial and are often (but not always) quite good at regeneration.
... I suppose that my conclusion is "even fantasy creatures label themselves the way they want". If kobolds want to be bipedal dogs or related to dragons, let them be. Except those invicible vampires who try to sparkle in sunlight, that is just plain wrong. Don't hog the sparkles, give them back to the fae, man. :smallyuk:

There should be fewer romantic comedies in general, because TV with real actors is lame. Animation all the way. Or seriously, because they're like 70% drama and 30% tasteless jokes.

I see hugs are needed. Thus hugs are given. *hugs to those that need them*

Aside from Chasing Amy, I have yet to see a single romantic comedy that doesn't cause me use the DVD as a frisbee.

Oh, come on, there's not that bad. There are a couple that I like. Used to be embarrassed about that, but now...well, I guess I'm still embarrassed :smallredface: . I guess I still haven't gotten over all of my hangups yet.

Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
That m'dear is because I'm a bitter and grumpy old man whose crushed heart long ago gave up hope of ever finding love. Romantic comedies remind me of the aching loneliness that dwells within. :smallfrown:

Well, maybe not quite all that. :smallwink:

Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
I will admit to loving good romantic comedies. They can be good fun, and are one of the genres where I'll keep an eye out for real gems. Many of them are bad, but Sturgeon's Law always holds true across genre.
I favor a gay romantic comedy with a wacky straight friend.

Lots of hugs!
We should get Golly and Musashi to help out in tandem. Hugs are best defined by their arm to torso ratio. *nod*

Re: LGBTAitP 26: No Time For Snappy Titles
Things like this manhwa say a lot about our society. A bunch of guys hit on some girls and they're creeps and jerks. A horde of women attempt to forcibly romance a guy and it's sexy? What? I can't imagine that even a straight guy could be into that. People are hard to understand.
Edit: For context maybe go back a few pages.
