The New Gay

No, this rant does not refer to 'Metros'; however, such a label somewhat relates to the topic at hand. To all those men out there who love other men, physically as well as emotionally, I ask you this, 'Why is there no politically correct term for being male gay'? I mean there exists the Gay & Lesbian parade, but if I were to say 'There goes a lesbian' people would know I'm referring to a woman. Conversely, if I were to say, 'That person is gay' I'm not specifying a gender. Now I realize I could say more crude things to give people a clearer idea of the gender, but I prefer not being bitch-slapped, by either sex. Besides, thats not the point of this rant, since for every slanderous male term there is an equally slanderous female term.

I believe its time the 'flamboyant ones' stand tall a declare a word to distinctify their sexual preference. The women-gays can say, 'I am a lesbian', whereas the men-gays can't finish the sentence, 'I am a ___' without the word 'man' to qualify the used term, whether they say gay or homosexual.

Now those men that like the ladies, yet enjoy the lifestyles of women, i.e. spa treatments and tight clothing, have already taken the term Metros. So you see its not that hard to come up with such a label.

One day instead of seeing the Gay & Lesbian Parades/Days/Festivals/Carnivales, maybe we'll see a Masculord & Lesbian Parade/Day/Festival/Carnivale all under the universal banner of gay pride. I realize Masculord is lame, but I'm sure a more flamboyantly appeasing name can be thought up by someone who actually partakes in homo-activities. Masculord may actually be too strong a name considering a lot of gay men tend to act quite femininely.

The other alternative is to make a stronger push to make gay more male specific, like was done back in the day. You know how the definition stopped meaning 'To be happy' and became 'Man-on-man lovin'. Side note here: does anyone think the accepted definition change had anything to do with the cancelation of the Flintstones? Maybe, just maybe, the conservative parents no longer wanted their children to have a gay old time with a bunch of cavemen. Umm I guess that wasn't as much of a sidenote as it was an endnote since I ran out of stuff to say. So to all those Masculords out there, I say, unite, flamboy and take a name that those thieving lesbians can't mooch off of.

Rough day

I guess this could be more appropriately titled rough week. As I managed to complete 5 exams in the past 7 days. During this time I've developed a schedule of sleep that I can't seem to shake. Basically I sleep anytime after 6 am and wake up at around 1pm, lately its been more of a 9am to noon do to a more compact schedule. The all-nighter doesn't seem nearly as impressive to me as the all-dayer. Its been awhile since I've had one of those. But I digress.

Recently, I was walking home after a particularly bad exam. Don't worry, it seems everyone did poorly. However, at the time I was in the best of moods and it didn't help that there was a cold drizzle happening for my walk home. Then something happened that completely changed my mood. I was about half way home when up ahead I saw an elderly woman getting of the bus. She started walking me and as we passed on the sidewalk I was engulfed by her scent. Now to look at her you would expect the smell of a wet wool coat, but no, she had the overpowering smell of Froot Loops. Maybe it was the rain that accentuated it, but man it was strong. As I continued walking I started to smile. Such a strange event was just the pick me up I needed.

You may notice the time of my post. So I guess I'm gonna fall asleep soon. Good day.

Credit Clam man (Reverse Beer Goggles)

The idea for this rant is to be credited to Clam man. I will also put in some of Clam man's thoughts on other issues.
Now on to the main topic at hand, Reverse Beer Goggles. The phenomenon of RBG is not as mysterious as the phenomenon known as the piss shiver (refer to blog titled Piss Shiver for further discussion), however many a young adult can suffer from this affliction. The cause of RBG is simple. After numerous keggers and bar hopping,
one develops a certain familiarity with the well known opposite of RBG, Beer Goggles. Now we all know how beer goggles impair ones judgement when sizing up the opposite sex, hence the term "Ugly Lights" was coined to describe the end of the night when the barlights go on to reveal the true identity of your dance partner. It is only a matter of time and 'ugly lights" scenarios for one to develop RBG. RBG is simply a form of paranoia where you believe that any girl you find attractive during the party is actually ugly due to beer goggles. One proceeds to avoid actual 'hotties' if you will, thus leading to a different kind of regret the next morning.
You may be asking yourself, 'Rombus, is there a cure of RBG?'. Well, in fact, there is a solution. Some have postulated that decreasing the frequency of getting drunk will reduce the paranoia and look for girls in more wholesome and daytime environments. To them I say 'Good one'. All one needs is a trusty wingman or wingwoman if the case may be. However, instead of the usual duties of wingman being to tear you away from "uggies' also known as 'uggos', this wingman is required to give you a greenlight with whomever you may be chatting up. The more wingmen one can bring out only proves to decrease the occurence of RBG.

Now I give you some quotes or paraphrases from Clam man. I warn you that his comments may seem bitter but you'll see why.

1. " People should be allowed to go to ex/current girlfriends houses and be like "OI, YOU OWE ME 24 BLOWJOBS! excel spreadsheet attached." i was talking to my buddy about that the other day, girls are definitely getting greedier. we know they keep score, just as we do. You just keep working and working thinking "ok man, after this one is my turn... no? ok maybe after this time" but it never comes."
2. "There is nothing good on the Food Channel".
3. " I hate when fat, ugly people are talking and they say shit like ' I hate when I'm in a 5-some and and none of the girls suck my dick.' Its a valid complaint, its just obvious they haven't even come close to such a situation."

My comments: I don't really watch Food Channel so maybe he has something there I dunno.
In regards to #3: I've actually heard people making similar comments. The people making them have always been those hairy, unkept people that never seem to leave their academic related building. In which case, their hair-filled stinkfests of an orgy are something I want no part of nor hear about. Especially since everybody involved is not getting their dues.
