real confessions

[beatifk]

I definitely can't roll a joint.

It's a surprisingly useful skill to have... I don't want to toot my own horn but my mom used to ask me to roll her joints when she would go hang out with her girlfriends... And my mom had been rolling joints since the 60s, she just liked mine better.

[beatifk]

Thought I was good at making new homies but shit has honestly been hard making new skate friends. Making friends at work is easy compared to this but really wish I knew how to approach dudes and find people to skate with in a new area.

If you figure it out I'd love to hear any tips. The last time I made some new skate friends I just saw some people skating in the park (not a skatepark, but just the local city park) and went up to them and we exchanged numbers. But after Covid lockdowns and being away from people for almost 2 years, I need to get my groove back in that regard.

In the past I've spotted people with caps from skate brands or worn out sneakers out at bars or parties and asked if they skate and then tried to plan to skate together.

The tough part for me as an old man is making friends with people 15-20 years younger than me makes me feel like a creep, but really I just want some people to skate with.

dylan was so fucking cool .. been looking at google images of him for a while now and it’s borderline creepy .. a true style icon that went far beyond skateboarding

More often when I think, "I miss Dylan" I'm thinking about Dylan Reider and not my only brother who I haven't seen in like 4 years

[Easy Slider]

I watch Downton Abbey with my wife.

I never understood the hype around him. His gravis part is good but besides that… Maybe it’s because I don’t care much about what skaters look like, maybe it’s because I was too young and started to skate when his style and influence were already widespread, but I really don’t feel this connection you guys have towards him at all.

I admire your honesty. Hell…I like you. You can come over to my house and fuck my sister.

You say you were too young and that makes sense. And I was too old to really be into him. However, when his Transworld part came out he was far and away better than anyone else his age. He won Am of the year I think. Do yourself a favor and watch it. His Dylan part was great too but the Transworld part was so next level at the time it was scary.

He was a handsome man and he skated in a handsome way. Also probably one of the best impossibles ever

 

I watch Downton Abbey with my wife.

How great is it? Even though it's about aristos and i wanted Branson to go full IRA, it's still very compelling and well acted television

Extremely cheesy at times but it has its moments. I am interested in history so it‘s a nice way to see how things were done back then. I particularly like that time around the turn of the 20 century. My wife and I even took the Orient Express on our honeymoon.

Don’t know why but I do too. Love Island has been my shit recently, like I really wish I didn’t give a shit but I watch til the end every time.

What honestly has worked for me is showing up with some beer, usually an offer to a couple people is what starts conversation pretty easily.

As for spotting someone with skate stuff on, I usually just brush it off cause it’s usually “ah I used to skate” and I’m kinda over it by then cause most people who have told me that won’t get off their high horse when I tell them I still skate.

It was great but quite costly. We started in London (where we had spent a few days) with a British Pullman train that took us to Dover. From there passing the Chunnel, which was the least amusing bit, on to Calais where we boarded the Orient Express proper, which took us to Paris where we spent a few days. Then back on the Orient Express which took us to Venice where we stayed for a few more days.

The nice thing about the Orient Express is that it is really authentic, including the cabins. No electronic gadgets and such. The personnel is dressed like back in the day and most passengers make an effort to look the part as well. The food is first class and there‘s even a bar wagon with a baby piano for nightcaps. It‘s a time capsule really.

That literally sounds like my gf's dream. She would totally freak if we did that

Trains are mad I wanna do the Ghan one time
Went on the Kuranda one and the nordland and the Chiang Mai one and a couple I forget the name of
Train travel is sick

The Ghan is crazy expensive isn't it?

I'd love to jump on the trans siberian railway one day though.

Yeah 100%, I fully can’t afford it, it looks unreal though

It would be mad to get on that trans Siberian and get munted and blast that kraftwerk album

I'm 47. My wife isn't in the mood most times so I try to jack it once a day for prostate health. I feel like if I keep the spice flowing I can continue traveling without moving. Otherwise, all those advances in porn technology and those women are getting plowed during their short porn careers in vain.

I was just fucking around. At 34 I'm all time high horny... Maby because I was a dope fiend for a long time. Now, I'm always ready.

[layzieyez]

Seriously though, the shit I used to jerk it to like scrambled Spice channel, Heavy Metal magazine, or gnarly 70's porn is hilarious to think about now.

The quality, quantity, and convenience of the porn coming out now is ridiculous. Me with a 56k modem waiting to jerk it in the past would be mad at me with high speed streaming handheld viewing convenience if I didn't take advantage of it.

Real confession: I have on multiple occasions in the past couple of years attempted to find recordings of the scrambled porn channels. Nostalgia and also the mystique. I can see anything I want now at the click of a button. What I truly want is to have to work for it.

I didn’t start pulling it until 19, 2 years after I started getting laid. Pretty weird, in retrospect; no clue what took me so long!
