For any Prep users on here who have the oft-self diagnosed "latex allergies" (that seemed to have sweep through the collective of bottoms after 2018 for some reason), do you actually sit out hookups when you acquire an STI? Even like ones not often mentioned like jock itch & public lice? Do gays actually do this? What's your experience been? And while I'm aware you can acquire some STIs through oral or skin-to-skin contact, I'd go on a wager to conclude it might just very well be less of a chance of acquiring an STI if you just wrap that junk/banana/tootsie roll or whatever up . This thread been brought you by a f-buddy (we'll call him a former f-buddy)'s crash out after simply being asked if he's visited the Hassle-Free clinic in a while or not.

What is the first melody of a song (the pre-chorus, chorus, verse etc.) that comes to mind from each year of the past 10 years (sans 2026 of course)? Here's my list: 2016: WFH chorus (no brainer) 2017: Feels (Calvin Harris, Pharrell & Katy collab) chorus for some reason 2018: Boo'd Up's chorus 2019: Lizzo Juice's pre-chorus. 2020: Rain on Me's pre-chorus. 2021: Sza's Good Days' 1st verse 2022: Unholy's chorus 2023: Boy's A Liar's chorus 2024: Yes And?'s chorus 2025: For some reason the pre-chorus of Tate Mcrae's Revolving Door despite me not playing it as often.

What song(s) you LEAST expected to keep growing & growing on you, have done JUST that in the past year for you? OMG y, I'm not a Britney fan, but y'all HELP ME TF OUT HERE . Break The Ice is currently tugging at my wig HARD 20 years later. I'm like kinda scared anymore to count songs out like I did this one. This WAS supposed to be a random on-trend Britney single in sophomore high school! WTF happened It's been a while.... (Hauaahaahaaa Whooaa )... I know I shouldn't have kept you waiting....but I'm HERE NOW !

You weren't on wishful thinking mode. You weren't a leering/ogling mess. You didn't constantly try to hound him with gay sex jokes. You tried your best but in the end he caught the vibe, even if subtlety and started distancing himself. SnHas this ever happened to you?

When was the last time you were ghosted on any platform? And do you think it was deserved or not? Were you too cringy or too cold in your last response? Did you use one word that maybe threw your whole reply off? Did you ask if they were into safe fun? Discuss!

To your point. I get that people in general need to try their best in life, including the likes of empaths, neurodivergent people etc. We live in a very much extroverted, capitialistic, fast-paced world that can be merciless and unforgiving & can't afford to have one sitting around and not engaging to a degree; we gotta put on the brave face & face the lions, the drivel & all that jazz. But to say that there is any wonder that socially awkward people tap out & don't want anything to do with this social politics is kinda missing the point. I mean you have my last thread as an example where you'd think I would have said some off-the-cuff pro Isreali thing. But no Chris rocks voice It was an NPC joke! And this happens in real life too. Co-workers thinking you're stuck up just because you can't be bothered to be their energetic battery and entertain their contrived small-talk & disclose your life story & all that mess. So while it is commendable that we try & press on amidst all the mess, let's please not penalize the ones who have understandably have tapped out. Sometimes just showing up in the bare minimum & not playing the game is a protective measure in itself, for your sanity & soul (to those who believe people possess that.)

Okay...? So then don't ask what the point is if you're not going to read the entire thing then...? I dunno. That's just me though.

But I don't necessarily think that it's a bad thing. Sometimes social awkwardness can be an asset, a secret weapon if you will. And like some users on here like @Relampago. have graciously highlighted, socially awkward people can very much have fresh takes on life that perhaps shed light on certain aspects of life that people often overlook and don't realize is a point of contention and something where boundaries & sensitivities should be called to question.

No, you're not getting it. Don't skim through it. Like READ everything from the previous thread. From OP to the final post.

No. Read the thread over. And the previous thread that I made.

@ATRL Administration and while you're at it, since we're doing the whole schoolyard "I'm telling on you!" mess, please reprimand all users here who throw rocks & hide their hands regarding other people's mental health & capabilities. No reason for me to be called sociopathic over a harmless joke.

I studied in Psychology for a bit some years back. But I untimely decided to take a different path & embark on other programs & endeavors let's just say.

The reaction was to people suggesting that I'm either a sociopath, narcissist or autistic, unprovoked. With some even suggesting that I go seek professional help immediately. Kinda like on what this fella in this gif below was on if you ask me (as far as all of the collective reaction to my NPC bit) & I made a G.I Joe joke

So....for the millionth time....that NPC bit was......say it with me together, class.....A JOKE. Why does your spirit feel so convincted though is the question? Do you really feel offended by that "slight?" Did I make you feel inhuman?
