Gays, its summer 2010 so... EVERYBODY TAKE OFF YOUR SHIRTS

^that looks great. I really wish I didn't have plans.

Hi gays, btw. I'm a friend of Morbs's through baseball. I would introduce myself via shirtless pic, but that seems presumptuous.

hi billy!

i dont think anybody would have a problem with that btw

Oh, what the hell. Be kind, please?

Also elmo, I got back from California too (though this was a few weeks ago). I had a similar thing happen while at Pt Dume on my birthday, this incredible feeling came over me and I thought, "What is this strange sensation?" I realized it was happiness and lack of stress and anxiety. And then of course I got back to NYC and immediately I get tension in my shoulders and neck. Hope your Cali grooviness lasts longer than mine did.

^i like this guy already

hey there bud! wanna go to the game Thursday?

GODDAMMIT. I can't :(, have dumb obligations w/ some friends.

well, somewhere soon then. Cyclones, Newark Bears...

I'd be down for Newark bears.

Billy, welcome!! I hope you like it here.

Thanks! I have actually lurked on this board for a bit (also hi j03, didn't realize you were here too)

Morbs I really do want to go to Citi at some point this summer. Preferably to see Pelf.

hey Billy! I'm at the mets v marlins game AS WE SPEAK

a typical Mets home romp

F'reals

hope everyone is having a fine Saturday evening. my team won our kickball game, just had a nice sirloin salad for dinner, and taking a few NYC friends out on the town tonight. The air is dense and swampy and I plan on drinking to capacity. summer!

also billy, i am def still feeling groovy. i've been dealing with a lot of family shit this past year and taking some time away was v helpful for me getting some perspective on and *emotional* distance from all that. feeling like a new elmo tbh.

was just driving along, stopped at traffic lights and who do i see go zooming past with a shock of white blonde hair?? our very own teddy! so when we were driving past him, i yelled out the window TEDDDDDDDDDDD and i think he had no idea who the fuck i was.

hi teddy!

only non-shirt pic of me I have:

btw, welcome billy! such good looking

i approve of these pictures. the thread title makes me hope for new ones every time i click on it. i was going to post one last night but fell asleep and probably need to be slightly drunker than i am now to do it.

fukkit.

'm at the mets v marlins game AS WE SPEAK

I was there, too!

Lex, you always have such poise!

oh hey, that was you justin3??? i was like, that could have been anyone. i was so zonked from work, too, that i was just like "let me across san pablo so i can go to the store to buy beer to drink it in the parking lot that is the yard of my house." haha, well, let's actually hang out sometime soon? i am sitting at mama buzz as i type, btw.

okay, i'll do the shirtless thing later tonight....and woh, so i've been hanging out with this guy a lot. it's starting to get really...uh... awesome? yeah!!

that said, this band was up here from san diego, and their drummer was this boy:
http://c1.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/39/l_8d2ac5fbdc09404283984759ac832004.jpg

swoon swoon swoon. he was like 21, really nice and spacy, just the sort of thing that i adore. hung out with him a bunch as he was staying at my friend's spot.

as in the one on the right...they were pretty good, too, kinda sounded like Bikini Kill.

i know i started this thread but i meant it as more a life philosophy as opposed to a photo album theme. i kinda think self-portraits should be reserved for our haircuts tbh.

drummer is A++

as in, no way am i posting topless pics itt

as if we wouldn't take the excuse, plax

i guess i'm not complaining tho!

i think photos pretty much fall under the life philosophy

^bcz I have neither

i may be totally off here but i think i may have recently seen a shirtless picture of daruton on tumblr?! please confirm / deny

attn. Eric H: http://friskyhands.com/welcome

Welcome, indeed. Right now it seems like there are two people on there, but hopefully it grows.

i may be totally off here but i think i may have recently seen a shirtless picture of daruton on tumblr?! please confirm / deny

That would be really weird. I don't THINK I have any photos of me floating out in the interwebs.

ok -- it was a picture of a dude somewhat resembling you with hair exactly like yours (same haircut and very recently bleached) and the face was hidden so I couldn't tell.

hey tabes, it's BROOKLYN PRIDE this weekend. Bring the shame! I've never heard of a Greenpoint reading before.

can i just

I need to stop crushing on straight friends. I used to know better than this. Back when I knew gay people.

Ugh, that's the worst. Thankfully I've gotten over that period of my life. Maybe I'm getting older? Or I know worse straight people now.

Belated welcome to you, Billy.

My latest sad and pre-obstructed* crush objects seem to be monogamous gay couples.

(*this part being key, I think)

you would think that I'd be able to meet some gay men to crush on in the 7th-gayest city in the country but apparently not

well, being in bar packed with gay guys laughing hysterically at all those lousy SNL Betty White sketches made me hate homos all over again

You ever stopped?

for a few hours at a time now and then! what about you?

I like them when they are not catty/judgemental, or stupid. The worst is a prissy, condescending bitch that lacks any semblance of wit or intelligence (apart from than the ability to program their DVR to record Glee)

More and more, I'm finding I like them quite a bit ... as friends.

for a brief moment in time i started to get snooty or judgmental about other gays but then i just realized that makes me no better than anyone else

also there are a lot of different types of gay people out there. i can even talk to people who watch glee with a straight face now
