    It's not an entirely horrible thing. It's almost more awkward when a friend becomes a client.

    My job does not do that. Actually the opposite.

    I have made friends at work, but it took a while for them to realize i wasn't a complete boob.

    100% of my local friends are my co-workers because meeting people as an adult is DIFFICULT.

    I am still good friends with a former co-worker and we phone regularly.

    And making new friends in a new city isn't that difficult when there are local gaming groups.

    Most of the local gaming groups are people 10+ years younger than me.

    Straining my suspension of disbelief, but well-written.

    So what's the problem with hanging out with younger people, Michael R​?

    Nothing inherently wrong with it. Just not the crowd I want to hang out with all the time, y'know?

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Hit Me with your Horror

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
