I don't think those types go to nightclubs... Unless you're going to the wrong nightclubs.
What one says to a complete stranger on a social occasion, especially when in "partner-seeking mode", is of utmost importance, not even necessarily on the conscious level.
Personally, I'm more put off by people who automatically assume that everyone in a nightclub is in partner-seeking mode, but I'm Goth and further I'm female, so I probably have a far different perspective on this than you.
The stars are an ocean. Your breasts, are also an ocean.

Oh my. I think I'll just say our philosophies and senses of perspective rather differ, and leave it at that.

I did have a bizarrely similar (to the original poster's) accident about four years ago, in which I slipped over a cookie and somehow twisted my ankle so far that it broke
What kind of cookie?

Oh man, did I link to this bizarre story of anti-emo riots in Mexico? One of those stories that sounds like it should come from The Onion, but as always, many times less funny in real-life, where emo-hatred seems to have become a useful cover for gaybashing.
Oh THAT'S why I was on hiatus. Right. Hiatus Mode re-engaged.

The emo-haters should go to Japan. They'd be shocked by the sight
And the kind of link that makes people either bored or automatically defensive because it's about the Bush Administration and fascism. Don't kid yourself and don't avoid it: Naomi Wolf shows convincingly how little of America's erstwhile open society is left teetering on the brink. No matter where you live, this has consequences for everyone, and as the financial crisis progresses those consequences are only going to get more relevant.

Never can tell. I once knew a dealer who was a Seventh Day Adventist, and I actually ran into an old fundie friend at a hip-hop show the other day, the kind of girl I used to mentally categorize as "Jesus bait." Far as I know she's still with the church.
Tonight we drink, tomorrow Allah forgives.

........................................... I'm bi and I hate emos (Well, most of them). Sure isn't because they're "gay"...

I don't think all the people involved are homophobes, more like homophobia is an ugly undercurrent in the thing as a whole. Kinda like how all glam rockers and their fans weren't necessarily sexist jerks, but nevertheless their particular movement was a pretty good thing for sexist jerk-ism.

The text is one year old, but it definitely looks like it's right. Even the financial crisis happens at the right moment...
I'm not absolutely sure what side of the evolutionary theory debate Beware the Believers is on, although the unfavorable portrayal of Dawkins is quite suggestive, but it regardless has a certain entrancing quality that compels me to post it. I don't consider it to be good, per se, but I find it disconcertingly hypnotic and endowed with an infectious refrain.
"Great men are almost always bad men."
