One time on here I got into an embarrassingly protracted argument about something stupid and one of the person's friends jumped in to say "How come all the incels identity with Boris from Goldeneye?" First of all no they don't, but if they did the reasons would be very obvious.

Talking to my doctor to see if my nosebleeds are caused by dry mucous membranes, or if it's the kind that tells me I'm ignoring a higher calling in my life, that I have some great albeit personally destructive potential that I'm repressing in order to try and live a "normal" life. I'm so nervous!

(Man who you're trying to walk away from at a party, said with an uncanny energy clearly supplied by cocaine and a surprisingly dead eyed expression, not blinking while his head tilts subtly closer) Seriously, I'd do anything for music.
