    I just used the word “eschewing” in a sentence- correctly I think- without knowing how to pronounce it. Is it like eschatology? I used to say that one wrong.

    A true Chrono-Synclastic Infundibulum place.

    I always thought of it as a sneeze...like "Esschew!"...God bless you.

    Said like...

    I’ve never read Vonnegut. Should I?

    The answer is always yes.
    And always no? They’re the same?

    Yes/no

    I feel like having conversations with postmodernists is frustrating and fruitless. Like sexting.

    Sexting is hit or miss. Either someone enjoys it or they don't. But the thing is that neither person really knows whether the other actually does or not or whether they are just playing along and rolling their eyes the whole time.

    Just because I’m cheerful and sweet and gentle and patient and smiling doesn’t mean I’m not bleeding inside. I will usually answer with the positive answer, because I am, except that being a positive person doesn’t always eradicate actual pain.

    Or one of them could be scrubbing the toilet as they are saying they are doing what they said they are doing.

    *or so I've heard.

    That's a good way for their phone to end up in deep *kitten*.

    Also, YOU *kitten* SWORE!

    Then what is the point?

    So strange to me because I appreciate that the mind is the sexiest organ but if on top of not being able to bump uglies one or both people are faking...

    It's like religion...or George Michael: ya gotta have faith.

    I don't want to put...words in @RunHardBeStrong's mouth, but I would guess that if one party enjoys it more than the other that the party who enjoys it less simply goes through the motions to appease the party of the first part.

    Ok.. my original comment was a joke but I suppose @SwannySez 's comment is true. There are people out there that don't enjoy it as much as the other or I suppose one of the participating parties just has a lot to do that day but doesn't want to let the other person down.

    Women can’t even get a man to talk on the phone, you think he’ll Skype? 🤣

    If he thinks he's going to see her naked? Yes.

    No clue honestly, I just use snap chat for the silly filters :joy:

    Being kind to yourself is a really under taught and underrepresented skill.
