So yeah, I fucked up.
This is probably late, but Google advises mixing a tablespoon of white vinegar to a 2/3 cup of rubbing alcohol for a suitable cleaning solution.

This is why I do not plan to drink, ever.
I think I've mentioned before why I intend to avoid the consumption of alcoholic drinks
Have fun leading a bland and unfulfilling existence missing out on the best things in life* with only the thought that you're somehow arbitrarily "better" than people who prefer to enjoy life as consolation, I guess.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Although this i will say: A bit of booze coursing in your bloodstream does make it easier to socialize, and that's pretty cool. In my case though, it doesn't outweigh the acid reflux and cranky bowels that inevitably follow, so at least i have a good reason to not drink. :v
...Well, that is certainly worthy of the Sad Thread. I hope you discover the cause of your affliction and a way to cure it.
Poor Shook. :(

*Barring psychedelic substances or the destruction of one's enemies, of course. Both are rather more difficult to obtain than alcohol, however, so I feel their relevance to the discussion is rather limited.   

Don't project so much, man. You only look like an asshole.

thanks yoink <3

But, most alcoholic drinks are too bitter for me anyways (as i may have mentioned before, there are indications of me possibly being more sensitive to bitterness than normal and i hate that taste), and the ones that aren't are mostly just soda pop or juice (well, besides some liquors, but i wouldn't want to get smashed on Bailey's), so it hasn't left any noticable void in my life. Besides, my brain's plenty loopy even without alcohol. :v

It's not that I make people uneasy, it's that people have a hard time being aware of my existence to begin with.
Well, people don't pay much attention to those that they don't know. I mean, if you just come across one single person on a long hike, you're much more likely to say "hi" than when passing by 800 people per second in a busy street. It's all relative, and if people in the street aren't doing anything unusual (note how much more you notice the street musician than all your fellow pedestrians), you probably won't think much of their presence. Same goes for you; if you want people to notice you, walk on your hands while blasting out Tchaikovsky from a boombox you're balancing on your feet, dress in vividly coloured steampunk gear, engage in lightsaber duels with your father or whatever. Walking around normally while dressed normally is one sure way to NOT be noticed (unless you're physically unusual, such as very tall or very short), due to how effective the human brain is at filtering out irrelevant stimuli. :I

Gonna be honest with you here: While you do look very good, that alone very unlikely to be the thing that makes people do double takes, because it requires more than a quick glance to notice (unlike, say, being super tall, which will be noticed INSTANTLY). If you want people to admire your looks, busy streets are a TERRIBLE choice of location due to the amount of background noise (the only worse places being completely depopulated wastelands), since that automatically makes your brain pay less attention to each individual. Instead, either pursue photo modelling (and/or modelling for artists if that's your thing, but i can confirm that good looks stop being distracting for the artists once they gets going) so you can mosey your way on to every magazine ever (and make money at the same time??!??!), sit around in picturesque parks, or hang out in (gay) bars where people might be checking each other out. :v

Muh girlfriend apparently only noticed and kept my image in her mind for months before we actualy talked because apparently I'm the only long-ish haired lawyer person she saw at the time :v

I also only noticed her among a multitude of pretty looking girls because she was the only one with really long poffy-ish black hair, pale skin and makeup that made her look like a tiny cute female version of edward scissorhands :v

Substitute poffy-ish with long and flowing, and I'm game too.

I looked at Youtube comments.
Not only that, I looked at comments on the featured video Youtube is hosting on LGBT people, presumably because of the shooting.

But, that's pretty small considering how many people saw it, right?

Okay, great.

Hell what makes it even worse is, some of that's probably gay people wanting to exclude the trans.
Either way, this made me pretty sad.

And I don't even consider myself "trans", barely even "fluid", I just don't fully subscribe to male stereotypes.  But this is a great reminder that the general public *hates* that.
And it would be a lot worse in certain religious areas which apparently get precedence when it comes to American liberal inclusiveness.

Honestly I've never met any male gay people who dislike transpeople. Not attracted sure, but no actual hate involved. I have, however, met feminists that REALLY hate transpeople, specially transwomen, and some of these were lesbians.

Marginally better. But change is change, I guess. No reason not to try to improve things.
