honesty I'd much rather people just be honest about not wanting to hang then be surrounded by flakes

I've done this once or twice myself, and at the moment of accepting the invite I'm absolutely down to do it, but when it gets to the day itself sometimes it's way too hard or I didn't anticipate how it fits in with other events.

And if you get older, you sometimes are simply too tired. A party on Friday sounds great on Monday, but on Friday at around 5 it starts to sound really really tiring and you'd really appreciate going to bed early.

Getting old sucks.

For sure, I just give them the honest reason if I have to cancel.

Better than pooping out your penis.

This is technically possible, unfortunately. With an abnormal connection of tissue known as a colovesical fistula, it is possible.

I've been seeing this guy a lot. Don't really know who he is or what he represents.

Can someone fill me in?

It's a meme that's been everywhere lately. I don't know where this originated, but it's a promo shot from that old King of Queens show.

I never watched the show, but I guess it's old enough now to be a meme.

[–] scottywh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It was a pretty great show as far as sitcoms go.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's Doug Heffernan. He's the unofficial "king" of Queens in NYC.

Fuck, I thought it was Paul Blaurt this whole time.
