I’d like to take a minute and talk about the rare event where a man loves a man unconditionally.
Wait, that sounds gay. Let me try again.
When a man and a man really love each other…
Crap, that’s no better.
It’s hard to talk about male heterosexuals who love each other in today’s society. Somehow the formula has been unfairly mutated into Man + Man + Love + ∞ = Gay. There’s very little wiggle room leftover and that’s quite a sad state of affairs to me.
The mere idea of male emotional intimacy is one of the few remaining nuts that our society has yet to even crack. The term Bromance tries its best to soothe people and let them know it’s just two guys who feel so friendly with each other that they don’t mind opening up about anything. But it doesn’t work. If anything, it comes across as a comical, even clownish, term that’s used to pair two goofballs together who don’t quite fit in with the rest of us. It’s one step above Outcasts and synonymous with Weirdos.
I like the hope of one day having a best friend who knows everything about me and vice versa. I also like boobs (on women). Both are equally awesome and one day I hope people come to accept that.
I was going to paste my favorite of these Top 50 stop motion videos, but it was clearly impossibly to choose just a few from among the many awesome.
Not to be an alarmist, but you may want to save anything here on Shyzer that you absolutely love (like there’s anybody out there who thinks anything I’ve written is beyond awesome…) because this site may be going dark soon.
Just sayin’
Oh, and Happy New Year! I’m pretty fucking excited about things to come – hopefully you are as well!
I closed the laptop for a few days last week and it was the best move I’d made all year.
I have a ton of work to catch up on for HIF over the next few days. Doesn’t matter, because it was still worth it.
Having Tommy up here for Christmas made for quite the entertaining week.
I’ve finally got some plans and longer posts I’m working on for Shyzer.
I’ve also found a new hobby.
And finally, I’m in the beginning stages of planning another trip abroad.
That’s all for now.
So this is what inflation looks like. I especially like the $100 billion dollars it takes to purchase three eggs.
God forbid something like this happen here in America less we want to be stuck with the penny for decades to come.
United begins flying to Zihuatanejo on January 6. I think I might go for a weekend just because of Shawshank Redemption. Anybody want to join me?
It’s crazy how fast-paced life is right now. In the past two months alone, I’ve done more work on Hey, It’s Free than I did in the 10 months prior combined. My daily routine now consists of waking up, hunting for freebies, answering e-mails, trying to squeeze in a quick lunch, more e-mails, an interview here or there, manage the forums, work on a featured post, holy crap how is it bed time already? And yet I’m loving it.
As if that wasn’t enough, in the next month I plan on launching a new charity website, doubling up HIF, and re-launching an old website that I never fully developed. Plus there’s that whole social and family life that has to be fit in somewhere!
Thanksgiving was quite fun. I got to catch up with a few friends, find out that my little brother is far superior in shooting a gun, and relax a little bit. I’m excited about Christmas as well. This is always one of my favorite times of the year, cold weather be damned. Sitting down to a Thanksgiving dinner with a table full of friends and family and sitting around Christmas morning laughing and joking with everybody are by far two events that I look forward to the most every year. I certainly start to appreciate them more with each passing year as well.
I’ve started to try and be a good friend as well. I sat down back in August during some random Olympic match and made a list of every person I hoped to still be friends with in 10 years. Then I circled the names of anybody whom I’d talked to in the prior two months. I think my list was something like 40 people with only three or four circles. It was a harsh reminder of how hard you have to work at actually maintaining friendships! There are still a few people I need to get back in touch with, especially certain family members, but I’m already pleased with the progress I’ve made. It’s one thing just to call somebody up and say “hey, long time no talk!” but it’s a whole other to actually keep the contacts going from that point onward.
Let that be a lesson, little Gooblings.
The author of one of my favorite websites is up for a $10,000 scholarship and seeing as how he’s in 2nd place, I wanted to ask if you’d please click this link and vote for David Cameron. It takes like 10 seconds and a vote for Cameron is a proxy way of saying you love me as well. Because let’s face it: if you’re still a daily reader here, you must certainly either be a loving friend / family member or a stalker and I’m sure he’ll take your vote no matter what.
