It's Summer and Taylor Meade is Freezing His Ass Off: GAYLXORs Summer 2013

Warned ya!

nb to tabes: Tonight I tried to pick up a guy wearing a David Wojnarowicz t shirt.

I was wearing my Flipper t shirt, which is better for picking up straight guys.

and I'm reposting this so it's convenient

I may have a date tonight. Because I decided 2013 should be about leaving my comfort zone.

This is him:

went to a gay party yesterday, everyone was dressed exactly the same

Eric, you should definitely leave your comfort zone.

I know. I don't usually date supermodels, but I figured if not now, when?

J0rd, get ready for more of the same! ... also you should come to my friend's DJ night sometime, cuz all the music is older than you and I somehow was enticed to dance.

Eric wau, are you playing a prank on yourself?

I just wanted that pic at the top of the thread for the rest of the summer, is all.

Tho the guy I'm supposedly meeting tonight is plenty cuet (and incredibly too young, so I'm secretly hoping it isn't a date).

did that fellow inject a deflated volleyball into his left hip?

more to the point, when is Eric getting a hiptoo?

When I get my waist back down to 19 inches.

oh, Miss Scarlett!

EH & I just have screwball fun, Stevie.

how appropriate: his favorite genre.

he should be getting that Claudette Cobert box set for his birthday.

I'm sending you my wedding pics for yours.

who's the lucky tattoo artist?

I'd like the next Big Gay Issue to be ENDA, for the love of God.

The one who did this:

Yah, ENDA is obv next in line.

So, leaving my comfort zone is paying off, btw. I get to wrestle with all sorts of fun questions now.

hi

Who is Edna and why is her being gay an issue?

um hey

sup

Basically it's two things...

1) This age difference goes above-and-beyond when it comes to "outside my comfort zone," and
2) I already know it basically it all comes to an end in a month and a half

2 is probably what's letting me feel better about 1

Like, you know you only have a finite amount of time with this person (cause they're moving or whatever), or because you are just that pessimistic?

The former (for a change).

we only have a finite amount of time, full stop

Man, do I love The Sundays.

sl4nt is doing text-free listicles, eh? at least no Mommie Dearest...

http://www.slantmagazine.com/house/comments/50-essential-lgbt-films

Presumably the list only covers movies that feature at least implicit gay relationships. Unless you read something into Crawford's personal assistant and her doting over Joan, I presume it wasn't eligible. It made his top 10 for 1981:

1. Possession (Andrzej Zulawski)
2. Ms. 45 (Abel Ferrara)
3. Pixote (Hector Babenco)
4. Blow Out (Brian De Palma)
5. Polyester (John Waters)
6. Evil Dead (Sam Raimi)
7. Mommie Dearest (Frank Perry)
8. Man of Iron (Andrzej Wajda)
9. The Aviator's Wife (Eric Rohmer)
10. Circle of Deceit (Volker Schlondorff)

Very confusing b/c he looks a LOT like my first not-quite-boyfriend, who is far too much of a Southern diva to ever do something like that.

BTW, I forgot to mention, I hung out w/ former Gaylxor, Causistry last weekend! Along with his brand new husband on their honeymoon. Very nice.

I'm celebrating Pride by going to a straight wedding today! Two of my best friends. Pretty fabulous as straight couples go

I'm celebrating by teching a country show 30 miles from the festivities

Might catch some of the Toronto festivities this weekend, though if we do, it'll be by accident. Need to just gtfo for the weekend and will be passing through.

what can Brown do for you?

hi

i might go to pride tomorrow

what's your plan?

i think we're gonna have brunch somewhere, wander around boystown for a bit, check the parade. if it gets to be too much we plan on escaping to the beach.

My apartment overlooks the parade route, about 4 blocks from the end. My idea was to leave town, but now I'm thinking of having a couple friends over to watch it from my quasi-balcony. IDK man. Is it a big deal to cross the street through a parade? 4 years ago a woman was run over (literally) by a float when she crossed the street during the parade. Which....how??

http://www.transitchicago.com/prideparade/default.aspx?mbp=y

This map has designated parade crossings marked. (Sorry for intruding. I saw you'd posted last and I was pretty sure it was about the parade and I wanted to see what you were doing.)

Oh! Thanks! I had looked at the route on my phone, but it was small and I didn't notice such things. And don't worry, no one thinks you're spying.

Alcohol consumption should NOT take place along the parade route. Open containers containing alcoholic beverages are illegal on the streets and sidewalks. You will be subject to receiving a costly ticket from the Chicago Police Department. The ordinance was updated this year with higher fines and penalties! Instead, bring plenty of bottled water and sun screen and dress lightly.

the one I attended Sunday played in succession "Roam," "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," "Hey Ya," "Rhythm Nation."

Me and bf thought about getting married, we tried to get it together before his mom died but we couldn't swing it. Lots of reasons to get skeptical about people's motivations for tying the knot but ultimately anyhomo who voices their own reasons/baggage for avoiding gay marriage wrt other people's gay marriages should maybe reconsider

The last one I attended opened up the dance floor with "I Got a Feeling," so yeah, my experience much closer to Eric's.

my friend made his own tape for his wedding (c. 1991) which began w/ the Twin Peaks theme.

(they are still married and have the only 16-year-old whose fave movie is The Long Goodbye)

:( wrt my bf's mom dying, it was pretty sad, we'd been "engaged" for so long but had been too busy to set a date, and then by the time it became clear that we had to get cracking on making wedding plans if we were gonna do it while she was still alive, the whole act felt selfish and strange, like, "racing to beat the cancer clock so I can make your son an honest woman" or whatever, diverting the attention to ourselves instead of upon her, so we left it and threw parties for her instead :)

One of my best friends did his first dance to another friend singing "When You Know Why You're Happy" and it was so beautiful I legit started crying and had to take a walk.

Other than that I never remember anything about wedding music

the one I attended Sunday played in succession "Roam"

OK, "Roam" over "Love Shack" is admittedly a victory in itself.

O__O there is such a thing as a wedding without an open bar?

Jurlfriend you haven't spent much time in the South have you? Most wedding receptions I attended or worked at were dry. No dancing either.

Huh, guess gays really DO threaten to ruin marriage down there!

One of my best friends did his first dance to another friend singing "When You Know Why You're Happy"

canadians!

i'm going to a gay wedding reception next month at an antiques store

The "best man" at Sunday's wedding was a lesbian friend of ours. She wore a suit!

Did she also claim "I'm the REAL best man"?

in the voice of Ann Ramsey

You guys, just go to black weddings. The music's good, I promise.

Evidence supporting this point:

How is it that no one has busted out the Percolator at any wedding I've attended yet?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEMyz0-6EFc

I guess the fall thread should mention either Pope Francis or the ex-twerker movement.

I thought mention of sweaters was mandatory.

My gayest moment this week: listening enthralled to Angela Lansbury's commentary on the Picture of Dorian Grey dvd.

also, everyone: Stevie is hungover. Bear with him.

i wonder if my friend is going w/ Angie to the Oscars

I couldn't tell if it was naivete or good acting when she quizzically said (I'm paraphrasing): "I think Mr Lewin was aware of the so-called homosexual undertones in the material, right?"

I just got broken up with over Facebook Messenger!

lame

I mean it was a guy that I was sort of "seeing" but not rly dating I think maybe and it was not rly working and I was planning on calling it off myself, but I mean lol at being in a movie and getting a push notification of a message that simply reads "hey, it looks like this isn't going anywhere, i had fun. your a great guy so i guess i'll see you around."

I am more relieved than anything and also fairly amused. I think this is prob at the top of the list of like "most painless and also kind of amusing break ups"

Boys
Boys
Boys keep texting
Boys always work it out

ha stevie i told you it'd be a swish didn't i tell you

p sure you told me; I mean I knew it was doomed from day 1 and enjoyed it while it lasted

I just got broken up with over Facebook Messenger!

Welcome to my July. (Specifically, welcome to my birthday this year.)

I am more relieved than anything and also fairly amused. I think this is prob at the top of the list of like "most painless and also kind of amusing break ups"

In my case, it was the most painful interaction I've had in years and I won't allow myself to feel anything for years to come because of it.

I'm happy for porn.

Also, what's with people rejecting you and then telling you how awesome a person you are and how you'll totally meet someone someday who will appreciate X, Y, Z and all the other things that make you so great?

It's like, either no, that's a lie ... or yeah, no shit I'm totally awesome, and I don't need you to tell me that asshole. In fact, I'd rather kill you to remind myself of how awesome I am.

When I broke it off with this guy recently, I at least spared him that condescending pablum. Hopefully he savored that.

I think I'm done with this whole dating ride tbh. There's a lot of books I need to read still.

My friends tonight very earnestly told me I need to hire the services of a hustler. I'm pretty sure I know endgame when I see it.

Fuck all of you.

That was the gin.

The gin hates you all.

I need to buy some gin.

:(

Even under these circumstances, converts to gin please me.

Someone start a new thread. The disparity between my first and last posts on this one is too distressing.

Then again, it's going to me mid 80s today, so.

tell it to the earth and sun

"FALL Into Someone's Butt (itt a gaggle of gays make sass in Q4 2013); is what happens when no one else makes a new thread
