So, I've been thinking a lot about common tropes and was thinking how our board would benefit from some sort of will-they-or-won't-they style couple. I think it'd really keep people coming back and reading regularly.
Any ideas who we can couple up? Do we want to try a traditional heterosexual couple are we open to some sort of LGBT couple. Also would it be even more appealing if the more feminine one is able to tell a joke?

I think you are out of luck on the heterosexual couple as that would require a female board member.

We have several females here. And we only need one. Or at most, two.

A post labelled meta is self-referential. Instead of being about music or child rearing or some outside topic, it's about the board itself or posts about how we post.

It's Julian's shorthand for "ME Thirst for Attention"

I like funny acronyms.

I will have to say, I do like the name change to "Community Organizer".

I don't think there are any single women on this board. Though I didn't think too hard about it. And I think every guy i know from this board is partnered in some way.
My wife once set up one of her male friends with an ex of mine on a blind date. They ended up getting married and having three kids. That's one way to get your boyfriend's ex out of the picture.

have you never seen a sitcom with UST? The number one reason it's unresolved is usually because one or more of the participants are already in a relationship with someone they're ultimately ill-suited for. Ask not who is single; ask who is in a potentially crappy relationship.

I would guess that stands for "Unresolved Sexual Tension" as it is the title of this thread.

She was just someone I dated briefly and it morphed into a friendship. Maybe I use the word "ex" too liberally. But calling her an "ex" makes for a better story, doesn't it?

-
I love it when gay people think that all straight people do is have sex! :)
-
no . . . all that gay people do, is have sex. all that straight people do, is be, jealous of that fact. bazinga.
-
And by straight people you mean straight MEN
no . . . all that gay people do, is have sex. all that straight people do, is be, jealous of that fact. bazinga.

Gay guys talking about being gay vs. Jews talking about being Jewish.
Who talks about what more?
-
What do your gay Jewish friends talk about more? There you have the answer.

gays usually only talk about being gay, around other gays. they tend to hide it in the company of straight people. putting up with years of discrimination and getting beat up or killed . . . will do that that, to a people.
i personally, say . . . fuck other people.

So lumping all non-gays into one big pool of 'other people' is OK? Come on Walky I know you better than that.
-
you missed the point about 'fuck other people'. i meant it in the context of that i dont hide talking about being gay or gay issues/topics around other people. gay people do usually hide openly, freely talking about their lifestyle around straight people because most straight people dont want to hear about it and feel uncomfortable around such topics. that was my point. i was even given a c+ regarding me even bringing it up, thus even more so proving my point. if you were gay, you would understand, but you are not, so you dont.

The C+ was given to your written response, I expected a better retort...the response above deserves a solid B.

The 2640 show cant be touched... This one is at DAR.
As for NMH, I listened to them for the first time last year, after I bought my ticket to 2640. I had heard their name before in magazines, but for some reason I never pursued listening to them. Now after getting their albums and seeing them live, I am definitely a fan.
That's too funny! I listened to them for the first time last year, after I missed out on getting tickets to Mangum solo and the 2640 show. I had heard their name before in magazines, but for some reason I never pursued listening to them. Now after getting their albums and looking forward to seeing them live, I am definitely a fan.
I smell a coupling a-comin'!
-
Moved.

If this thread is about sex, I think you definitely posted in the wrong thread.
I think the Jeff Magnum show at Lincoln was better than the 2640 space show. Maybe hearing him do the songs a second time lost some of the excitment, maybe it was the lack of alcohol at the venue.

Wait, so it's not fresh and exciting then?

He jumped off the Pizza Underground band wagon real quick too... He has a hard time focusing and keeping his thoughts straight. Early onset Alzheimers?

I said it lost some of the excitment. I didn't say dreadfully boring and dull like Pavement reunion show.

Songs about Pizza are only amusing the first couples of times.
-
i think most people at the pizza show will be too busy wearing sunglasses and texting and attempting to figure out which ipa to choose next the whole time to even notice that they dont care anymore.

Hexenjagd seems vaguely aware ShowListDC is a female. Potential flirtatious period followed by romantic relationship?? I would tune in for that.

Atomic and Hegajnxd.
Those two need to dress up and have some really angry sex already.

That would explain some of the masturbatory posts
