Junk Drawer -- May 29, 2k9 (Love Edition)

Terryporter_tiny by prezofdeath on Comment 700 comments

I love weddings, drinks all around!

Today's junk drawer is for...well....junk. Just like always. But to kick us off, got any love advice?

What's the first thing to remember in a lovey dovey relationship?

Should you play hard to get or be the one who shows unconditional love?

Should you be up front about your relationship when you start and define it or just let it evolve over time (i.e. off the bat "we're just friends/we are in this for the long haul/whatever" or just let it happen)?

Proposal stories might also be interesting.

Keep it fun, keep it clean, and try to keep your junk where it belongs.

Ready, set...go. Now.

Never get involved with a woman who tries to control your facial hair.

A man’s mustache is part of his face. If she doesn’t love it, then she doesn’t love you.

You're wrong.

mustaches are gross. If you don’t believe me google Adam Morrison.

Nope. They are beautiful.

You’ve been brainwashed by the mainstream media which is obsessed with youth. A mustache is the anchor of the face.

Baah

Mustaches hide mouths and smiles and that’s what I look at first.

Or if they’re pencil thin like Mike Conley’s I always think of the villains in every movie I saw growing up. I guess that’s why I don’t want Conley on my team – shifty sneaky con-man is all I think of when I see him.

Like sunglasses hide the eyes.

I hate sunglasses. I hate talking to somebody wearing sunglasses because I’m looking at some dark, semi reflective surface in the general vicinity of their eyeballs. For the same reason, I don’t wear sunglasses. Yeah, I gotta squint sometimes, but there’s still a sliver of eyeball to be seen there.

The eyes are the windows to the duodenum…or something.

On the other hand, think twice about a girl who trashes beautiful long hair with a perm.

I don't know

Last night there was a lady at a restaurant that had hair past her butt and she was holding the end in her fist and pulling split ends off something off. It was really gross. I think long hair that goes past the belt is disgusting. It’s probably filled with feces and gets covered in toilet water.

I prefer my romances to be romances, and my comedies to be comedies. The only movie genre less cool than romantic comedies are romantic drama-dies.

That said, I’ve taken multiple female companions (including the wife, many moons ago) to these insipid flicks for the sake of getting someshowing that I shared their interests. So you only get a -0.5 for saying lame to her when she has already left. :P

There was a thing on TV about him.

At least I’m pretty sure it was the same guy. He never had big enough shoes growing up, so his toes curled up, almost folding back on themselves. The bones continued to go straight, essentially poking out the bottoms of his toes. It showed the visit to the foot doctor and the X-rays and all that. Yeeeeeesh.

He definitely did not look like somebody that would make it in the NBA. Sure, you can’t teach height, but you also can’t teach glued-to-the-floor-slow-like-molasses-stone-hands-no-reflexes.

Other than basic don't be jerk advice

I think love is too individual and personal for general advice to be effective. I, for one, hate playing games, but that might work for some people.

How about I just give you my favorite (or one of my favorites) love quotes. I’m sure you’ve all heard it before.

Alfred Lord Tennyson
“’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”

and a slightly different version

“To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.”

William Makepeace Thackeray

that approach has only worked well for me

when my goal was to have only a friendship with a girl. I cannot think of a single time in my life that a pure friendship turned into anything else. It’s always felt like someone needed to establish the intention towards romance early and, even if there was no immediate fruition of it, both of us knew the direction. My wife and I were friends as teens, but friends who both knew that they were hoping to be more. The mutual understanding of intentions was really important.

Whenever ya talk to someone ya wanna romanticize with

Just wink a lot, nod suggestively after declarative sentences, etc.

She’ll get the hint, and respond with quivering lips, fanning herself with a frilly fan, etc.

I can’t stress this enough. A roguish wink does more to get across your intentions than all the words in the universe.

that the west is going to be insanely good next year. With the l*kers still themselves, denver looking strong, a healthy spurs team plus maybe splitter, houston was really good in the playoffs and with a healthy yao and maybe mcgrady(for at least part of the season), the blazers(of course). stuff is going to be tight at the top. plus a couple of those mid level teams and the young crummy teams getting older

1)love is defined bifferantly by everyone so fined out what love means to your partner
2)just play yourself if you express love openly do that if it is harder for you make sure your lover knows how hard it is for you
3)you can’t define something that is always changing

And lastly I give you some advise that has been handed down father to son on for over a hundred years in my family. “In life god grants you 1 good dog,1 good horse, and 1 good women. I have had a lot of good dogs own more then my fair share of good horses but I have only meet one person like your mother and I would mot be worth a soft pinch of poo with out her.” Those words came from my dad when he was in his 60’s and raised 6 kids and had been married over 40 years. they were advise that he was told on his wedding day from his pa.

Is that the theory was the Greek phalanxes would be a more effective fighing force if the men were fighting alongside their lovers.

Just kind of a step away from “Don’t ask, don’t tell”, huh?

Greek thought on this was even crazier than that

Prevailing Greek thought during much of the classical era was that women were so vast inferior to men that the love between men was considered the building blocks of society while love for a woman is less interesting than love for your house or your pets.

Of course, ignoring the potential value in understanding love through their language, because they were a disturbed society is like making an appeal to motive, which is a logical fallacy directly related to ad hominem.

it is not particular popular in classical literature

Not a lot of philosophical treatise or love poems directed towards careers and accomplishments. Religiously, it was used when referring to the a specific order dedicated to the cultivation of human virtues.

It really became popularized by Aleister Crowley in the 20th century for his Wiccan-type occult and the motto “Do what thou wilt”.

General relationship advice

DATE A LOT OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE. Really figure out what you like in a person and what you want. It will likely be different than what you expected, so don’t think you already know until you have dated different types of people.

Even if one is waiting for marriage to do different “date stuff”, it don’t matter— you need to figure out what sort of personality you best mesh with. The rest can be figured out.

I also think it is important to live together before marriage, but psuedo-living together is likely enough. You just don’t really know a person till you live with them, and you don’t know if you actually hate them until you live with them. For something you ideally only wanna do once like marriage, it’s an important thing to know whether you can stand living with the person.

I got friends who married too young, too quickly, to people they didn’t realize they actually can’t stand. If you’re gonna be with this person forever, does it hurt to not get married so fast and make sure you even LIKE this person? Don’t be in a rush for nuthin’.

Plus, who you are changes drastically from 18-25, and then onwards.

So go on now, get out there, and good luck!

definitely not easy

as some who got married at 20 to a 18 year old, I wouldn’t recommend for every reason that they say.

On the one hand, I’m still married twelve years later. On the other hand, we needed about a year long separation about six years ago or else we would have killed each other. Young marriages are like arranged marriages; a million reasons not to do them but people find ways to make them work and when they do, they are special.

great for you idol. that's awesome.

yeah, looking back at my 18-24 days…if i had married any one of my gfs, it would have ended already.

something weird happens to people past 25 i think…maturity and growing into what you want? maybe? it’s a generality but good rule of thumb

25 was a magic number for me

because that is how old I was when Mrs. Whats-her-name got pregnant, forcing me to change my plans and grow up quickly.

yes that is true

It is probably no surprise that we had to separate right around that time and, essentially, re-fall in love with each other after figuring ourselves out. Trying synthesize the lives of two people is hard enough when you are dealing with each person still developing.

Yeah, and everyone is different

Some people DO find a great match that young. It’s just less likely is all, and most people change so much in these young n’ stupid years.

My parents got married at 19, and started having kids right away. They’re still together, but almost broke up a billion times growing up and actually did break up for one year when I was older. We had a ton of money problems growing up, always had to move, and it was probably tougher than it had to be if they waited.

So to me, I wanted to make sure I waited, and try to be able to afford kids before I get some.

There is no perfect way of course, and one shouldn’t make strict rules about things like this. Just do your best to be aware of what ya want and what you’re looking for.

While I don't agree 100%

I do think you need to experience a whole lot of things before you can be married. Dating a lot of people is one of them. all of my family have been married before their 25th Birthday (The average is around 22) and my parents are celebrating their 40th after marrying at age 20. However they had lived some of their lives and experience a lot of things before meeting each other.

I don’t think living together needs to proceed marriage, because I feel that this gives a false sense of security. Meaning the thought “I am only living with this person so I can leave whenever I want” kind of attitude and sometimes this carries over to the marriage.

But I understand to each their own. I will never trade the years I have spent with my wife going to college together and basically enjoying those “younger” years as we learned about each other and basically had care free fun days before my son came along.

Yeah, that's the main point

Everyone is ready at different ages, and 25 is a mostly arbitrary number but a decent cut off date for when people kinda become who they become— just a still dumb, young version of their eventual person. It doesn’t mean they’re a mature and responsible adult, but prolly more of one than when they were 20.

So many people think they gotta do this and that by certain ages, and I don’t agree with that. It’s whenever you’re ready.

And if you’re young, you’re usually not ready, even if it feels like it. Just gotta do your best to be cognizant if your situation and remember there is no rush for marriage, kids, all that crap. So many people I know rush into it like they had a time limit and had to TRAP the other person, or do it while ya still had the courage. I dunno.

My motto: if in doubt, wait. That person will still be there if you were supposed to get married.

Yeah

And it’s not even as severe as “letting them go”, breakin’ up or whatever… just spending more time with them as a couple, and not a married couple, just to make sure.

Another tip from Uncle Morty: if you’re with someone, even if you’ve been together a long time, and you have no intention on marrying them or making a life with them, and things aren’t going all that great, just end it. You’ll be happy you did. Overstretched relationships, where you’re just together because you’ve been together a long time, do no one any good.

It ain’t worth the hassle for both people, so be the strong one and end it.

Yeah x2

I got a friend in that situation, where I am advising he fight for his loved one to ensure that they know he wants to be together. They have a child, haven’t been married long, going through a tough patch.

Since I worry that he might just kinda ‘go along with it’ and not stand up for what he wants, I’m just reminding him to fight for what he wants, if he doesn’t want the relationship to end.

It all depends, and there is no concrete rule.

Just gotta do what makes ya happy… in non-evil, selfish sorts of ways… MOST of the time.

Anyone have any opinions on this?
“Most teams we’ve spoken to in Chicago are indicating that they believe Oklahoma City is indeed leaning towards picking Harden. They also believe the Thunder are not enamored with Rubio at all, as they are committed to developing Russell Westbrook at his natural position—point guard.” -draftexpress

Is it wrong that I want OKC to succeed? I think picking Thabeet or Rubio would be a mistake. I also thought this was interesting.

-Larry Brown is reportedly extremely high on Stephen Curry, and may be willing to trade up in order to get him. Apparently he views him as being able to play either guard position, even alongside Charlotte’s current group of point guards, Raymond Felton and D.J. Augustin.

Curry is getting love from teams as high up as Washington and also has a chance to be drafted 6th (Minnesota) or 7th (Golden State). While the Knicks clearly like him, he isn’t the only player they will consider—the other top candidates on their board currently appear to be Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday.

Is Curry the anti-Rubio?

Roy is the best player in the world with the exception of Incarcerated Mike from Queensbridge .

by Nick Van Excellent on May 29, 2009 6:01 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

If Memphis and Oklahoma pass on Rubio he would drop to Sacramento at 4 who would love him

But that could be too low for him on the rookie scale to be willing to pay his buyout. So there still might be some trading up and around going on.

I’m looking to finish the final installment of the Color Coded Season.

But I haven’t been able to pull in pics for about 3 days. I currently use flickr. I see pics in the threads, but I’ve always had to pull in pics while in a post (create fanpost area), and then copy the html formatting to get it into a thread.
Thread advice and "create fanpost" advice will be greatly appreciated. Anyone else having trouble? is this a flickr issue? updating site issue? Seems like if you’re able to post pics in the thread you could also do it a draft? I can’t do either since I use a conversion of the drafts to post thread pics.
Maybe roybot could sell some shoes and donate to Ben & Dave.

Love.....

avoid any inkling to desiring it. Avoid anyone who is too involved in it. Make every effort to stay out of it. Love is trouble Love makes wise men break their banks, Stupid women get pregnate when they don’t think they should be, and splits up more marriages in present day than STD’s, or maybe that’d be the lack of it….. but in anycase it’s wayyyyyyyy overrated….. I believe that it’s nothing more than some terrible definition of a few emotional outbursts, and maybe some gland releasage……. other than that… what is so diffrent between love and deeply caring about something…..

Love is just …. silly really a waste of time to make people happy that don’t really appriciate it. imo…

but I’m a grouch too so…. ;)

My wife is reading a book called "Why Men Love Bitches."

I don’t know if that says more about her, or me. The author thinks that if woman go around acting superior and hard to get it will keep the men challenged, and therefore not bored. The ultimate no-no is to let him have you right away, cuz then he gets bored and won’t find you interesting ever again. I think it’s a stupid book.

For me, I was engaged to a girl in college, and it ended badly. I was WAY too emotionally involved, and couldn’t see all the negatives until I was so angry that I couldn’t see any of the positives. I promised myself I wouldn’t date for a year, and literally wrote a list of the must-haves, and can’t-haves of a potential spouse. This list has to be short, obviously, but I was able to avoid some people based on it, and it was the right move. My list looked like this:

Must Have/Be
-Responsible with money
-Decent relationship with her parents
-Direct communicator

Can’t Have/Be
-Bad Driver
-So insecure I have to constantly provide validation
-too much of a right winger

The next person I dated, I married, so I think it worked pretty well. Hope that helps.

HI!!!!!

okay, let me clear up the rumors. I am not in NYC yet. I’m still in Portland. The reason I haven’t been on BEdge in so long is that the weather has been beautiful and I have been trying to break my addiction to the internet. But I will be leaving Bedge soon because I have a summer ballet program in Boston June 27th – August 2nd. I don’t think I’ll have much internet access there so I probably won’t be on Bedge at all during that time. I go to NY at the end of August for school but (here’s the tricky part) I MIGHT be ending up in Boston next year depending on whether I get into Boston Ballet pre-professional division which I’m auditioning for this summer. So in a very confusing wrap up, I’ll be on the east coast some way or another.

When I go to Fenway I'm wearing my Ortiz shirt.

In the high hopes that that will get him out of his mighty slump. But I’m taking a picture wearing my blazer gear in front of the ted williams statue or maybe the citgo sign and sending it in for the “where in the world” thing.

i remember being part of this arguement with you before..

baseball has nostalgic value for me (I lived in all blue for a couple of years around 1988), but the only time i didn’t change the channel/leave within a couple minutes of a game going on in the last 17 or so years was around four years ago when I happened to catch Clemens involved in an amazing duel that extended into the 13-14th inning or something. Then other things happened and any thought that Clemens was such an amazing force were replaced by just more disdain for “America’s Past Time”.

But I definitely respect how you keep defending it, even if I cannot get it.

I find the pastoral elements of baseball

much more appealing than the violence, mayhem, and militarism of the NFL. Basketball, of course, is only not beautiful when the officials decide to clog up the game. It’s not hard to see why baseball is no longer America’s passtime but it really is a great great game, especially live.

If your friends (the really good ones)

have reservations about your choice : listen to them. Love is totally, completely, uncontrollably blind and it’s nearly impossible to hear something negative about your beloved without slaying the messenger. But I know 2 (over 25) men who each got infatuated with a lovely younger blonde (different ones) who was “good in bed” and married them. Both men ended the marriages in under two years. I told one later that all our friends just shook their heads when it was obvious he was falling for her. “Why didn’t you TELL me?”, he said. “Because you wouldn’t have listened.” “Yeah, you’re right, I wouldn’t have.” The other guy was my ex husband and both of our kids (who were over 18) advised against it. He didn’t listen and they we’re right – she really took advantage of him before he kicked her out.

Half kidding. Wilt was in a dream of mine though.

I had a dream last night with Magic Johnson and Bill Simmons. Magic and some other people were looking and possibly buying some of my paintings. Bill Simmons announced that he was going to dedicate a year to following Kobe.

Magic told me Jordan, Lebron…. and Charles Barkley would make the best big 3 in NBA history. At least they make sense position wise I guess.

MY ADVICE:

marriage will expand on the existing traits of your relationship. from there, kids will expand it 10x that.

so if you squabble about sex, money, sports…the squabbling continues exponentially…

if you don’t, and have a great time, it will be 10x better when you are married then have kids…

bottom line: marriage/kids will expand on your existing traits…negatively or positively…so make sure you have one that is going in the positive…don’t go into a marriage/kids thinking it will make your sketchy relationship improve or “strengthen our love”

love grows easier when it’s rolling in the right direction

Marriage is the first step in divorce

Love is for chumps. You gotta treat your lady like a commodity. Don’t think of her as a person or a teammate, only think about what she can give you and what her value is to other men in case you want to trade up to a younger model.

She might be okay now

But what in 3, 4 years, when she’s 32? Her career as a good looking lady is about over, and you got a franchise of manhood to run.

Tom is right, there is no room for sentimentality in marriage. Trade high, and know when to rebuild.

I think there's a secret.

Remember how Dave said he picked some moderators and would be selecting others? The catch is that on Monday morning, everybody will be a moderator with the power to ban instantly. At first there will be this long standoff, like at the end of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, with everybody looking around nervously. Then somebody will flinch and ban someone else. Then it will all snowball out of control. Everyone will be banned. The mushroom cloud will rise. Fare thee well, Blazers Edge.

I honestly think Hinrich pushes us to sixty wins next year.

What were we missing on the team this year? A defensive leader and perimeter defense. Hinrich could shore up our perimeter defense and hold guys accountable. His contract comes off the books just as Rudy, Batum, and Bayless come up for extension.

Win. Win… Win.

Short of an A-level PG who we can't get

I dunno a better fit for what we do than Hinrich.

More athletic, TONS better defense, can shoot, play off the ball, good age, etc.

A Hinrich/Blake PG rotation would be as solid as solid can be, and while I’d like Bayless to get some minutes for development, if it ain’t in the cards it ain’t in the cards.

I dunno, maybe. Wendy from BaB said that the lack of a set system in Chicago (they played a lot of 1 v 1) really hurt Hinrich. He thrives in a McMillan-type offense.

I'm more upset it was taken down because

no one got a chance to answer my question. I guess I’ll have to ask it here.

How odd is it that Shav has more street cred anyone else on the Blazers?

It's one of the most bizarre developments

You think Pritchard checked into that before signing it?

Give the previous dealings with “street cred”

Nearly a decade ago, former Trezevant High football coach Lynn Lang paid a former Trezevant player “about $30” to take the ACT for former defensive line standout Albert Means.

That’s it? 30 bucks? You would have pay me a lot more than that to take a test for someone.

absolutely. It’s a four or five hour commitment. I’d demand at least $200, probably.

it should be based on what you score

1400-1600 = $100
1200-1400= $150
1000-1200 = $500

since the 1000-1200 is the range you “wont get caught,” it’s tougher to manage hence worth more

that’s true… but I’m pretty sure I could choose to get a 1200 by intentionally missing some. That wouldn’t be difficult.

eh… I took it pretty recently, and there is generally one or two answers that are obviously wrong. If you’re confident in your ability to get most of the ones that you attempt correct, you could pick ones to get wrong.

you have to do the essay, but they only count it if the school takes the 2400 SAT instead of just counting the 1600 SAT.

Just got back from the theater

We went to see Pixar’s “Up” this afternoon.

Anyone else see it yet? Or want to hear about it? I can be spoiler-heavy or spoiler free. I’d rather not go into details if someone wants to avoid hearing about it…

My scale may be a little different. My Pixar 10's are Wall-E and Monsters Inc.

It’s around 8.5 to 9.0.

It’s a really, really well done movie. It’s clear they put an amazing amount of thought into it, and made a very unique movie. We both thought it was near the top of Pixar’s work… It’s a very memorable movie.

But… It’s heart-wrenching at times, and honestly it’s a movie for adults, not kids. The kids in the theater were often confused… the animals and the action sequences saved it for them. But it’s really for adults. My wife was emotionally exhausted by the end. (My wife just spoke up: “You know how Pixar always has a heartbreaking, emotionally charged moment in each movie? Combine them all and multiply by 10.”)

It’s very limited on rewatchability, IMO. No matter how good it is, it’s probably not a movie we’ll say “Let’s watch that again!”. But we’ll rave about how good it was nonetheless. Just completely different from a movie like Toy Story.

Oh, and the featurette before the movie starts is fun and creative. We liked it more than the rabbit/magician one before Wall-E.

Overall, a strong recommendation to go see it. Just be prepped for something a little different. The first 5 minutes are compelling and unlike anything Pixar has done previously.

I hadn't seen that in a while, thanks for the link

While they both have the same kind of style, ie. Pixar has their own style, the movie isn’t similar to that short IMO. The inventiveness and insight into human nature is definitely there, but the movie is not as playful and light-hearted. There’s definitely playful and light moments (primarily involving the animals), but it’s got a more serious undertone. The lead character, while also being older, is very different from the character in Geri’s Game.

I didn’t mention it above, but it’s worth noting that I could completely understand why someone would give Up a 10. It leaves an imprint on you by the time it’s over.

Thanks Timmay...i'm hoping to take the fam this weekend...

i like monsters inc quite a bit. my kids hit eject after 10 minutes of Wall E so i haven’t had the luxury of watching the whole movie.

you made me more curious about this movie…definitely gonna see it now.

Let me know what you guys think. It’s really different from Monsters Inc btw. I’m amazed at the level of writing Pixar pulls off, while contained to the animation genre.

Kinda curious if your kids eject after the first 10 mins of this one too… much like Wall-E, it’s about setting up the story. So heads up, they may get restless.

I didn't know it was out already

Me and the make believe Misses are seeing DRAG ME TO HELL, because I always liked Sam Raimi growing up and she wants to see a horror movie.

I’d rather see UP though. Is it good? DON’T TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS LALALALALALALA.

Monsters Inc is Pixar's best so far.

Going to see Up tomorrow…hoping to be amazed.

Haven’t seen Wall-E yet.

The Incredibles is maybe second fave Pixar.

All you guys who are headed to see it

Check in over the weekend in the JD’s and let me know. I’m curious what others think, and I’m also wondering if your kids end up enjoying it.

BTW, Wall-E is at least worth a rental. Much like Up, you’re never quite sure if Wall-E was even made for kids, because it’s simply a fantastic movie, regardless of age… and arguably, it’s more effective when you’re an adult. Unlike what I mentioned about “Up,” I enjoy Wall-E in repeat viewings. I don’t think I can explain why I think only one of the two is a movie I can watch repeatedly, without getting into spoilers.

Who knows though? By the time the DVD comes out, maybe I’ll reconsider on “Up”. It’s such an impressive movie.
