Broke my pen and inked my pants. What can I draw to make the stain look like a design or something more interesting than these splotches?

Put splotches everywhere on the pants now
So I keep getting a text once or twice a month from a woman claiming to give "naked massages in Tahiti" and it's addressed to like 50 men. I used to ignore it and delete the messages cause I don't care that much but this morning I was bored and said "you suck dick for extra?" Which I believe my last time she sent a text out I asked if she did handies and she replied with yes. Then she sent me a message saying "THIS IS SOLICITATION I AM TURNING THIS TEXT INTO ____ POLICE SEX CRIME DEVISION."
Then I questioned her on how "you suck dick for extra" implies solicitation considering I didn't state that I would pay money. And she replied with "I am an undercover cop and prostitution is illegal and solicitation is the act of asking for a service, doesn't mean money is involved"
Which brings me to 2 questions.
1. What do
2. Doesn't that mean me asking my wife to suck my dick is technically solicitation?
>>17118860
"you suck dick too" wouldn't be solicitation.
"for extra" implies money is involved.
You'll be fine, but you're an idiot. How you made it this far in life is a mystery.
>>17118887
I sucked dick and solicited prostitutes to get this far.
>>17118887
On a serious note, I'm pretty sure (not a lawyer so don't lay it out on me if I'm wrong) if "implication" we're chargeable we would all be fucked in any sort of scenario ever. I could have been implying for extra gas in her car, hell I could of been implying for extra guys to come with me!
While holding something up the girl im crushing on was resting her hand on mine, she moved it away for a second then put it right back on my hand. She couldve easily moved it somewhere else but who knows im probably overthinking it.
Ps yes im retarded when it comes to girl stuff like 99% of 4chan
congrats, bro. there's a decent chance she's into you.
>>17118814
:^)
She's probably into you. There is a chance it's a misunderstanding, but I doubt it.
This actually reminds me of a silly story. Last semester I was enrolled in the honours thesis research project for my wacko interdisciplinary programme. The prof was always weirdly doe eyed with me, floaty, and both stand-offish and coming back to me, repeatedly, to talk. I just figured she was weird. At the end of the semester I was helping to put away some tech shit, like mics and projectors, we used to deliver our theses. She and I were walking back to the lecture hall, and she reached out and half-grasped my hand before recoiling. She hasn't said a word to me since, but she gave me a 90 on the thesis kek
Is majoring in CS a good idea? I plan on doing it as well as learning a few languages while I'm in college. The thing is that I hear people get outsources like crazy, and that job security blows.
>>17118755
4chan might not be the best place to ask. I've been to /biz/ who will call CS an oversaturated meme degree, and /r9k/ and /b/ who worships the ground CS walks on.
I think the best thing to do would be to research the job situation in areas you'd like to live and see how much is there.

Hey /adv/,
Yesterday I drunkenly told this girl that I have been talking to that I have hooked up with her good friend in the past and that I had feelings for her at one point. Since then she has been acting really weird towards me (not talking to me as much) and seems to be "subtweeting" about me. Do you think I should ask her what's wrong and try to fix things or just let it be/hope it resolves?
Final bump
>>17118697
Yep she's done with you... for now at least. Imagine if a girl told you that she fucked your bro and that she loved him at one point. You don't care? OK. If you do care, then she probably feels 10x worse because that's how women are.
Don't bring it up again unless you can unfuck that girl. Which you can't. Oh and for future reference, don't disclose meaningless information like taht ever again. Honestly, what were you hoping to achieve by telling her that?
Oh by the way I fucked your friend and used to like her in the past.
How does that help your relationship? It doesn't you fucked yourself so just move on for now and maybe down the road something will happen.
>>17118697
Its cool guy!
Is there a way to grow chest hair or is that a testosterone thing?
If it's the latter, would lifting be sufficient to get acceptable test levels?
Genetics and testosterone. Lifting helps but you need a decent diet and sleep too.
>>17118594
Does your father have cheft hair? If so jerk off as many times as you can and you'll get some hair in the summer
>>17118616
If jerking off is all I needed my chest would be the Amazon Jungle right now
Need help /adv/,
>got permit,went to driving school,took the driving test and got my license years ago
>since I didn't have my own car at the time I didn't need to drive barely
>recently just bought a used car two months ago and just got it insured
>really excited to drive but as soon as I got in, iI became anxious of driving
>have never really driven by myself, only once and it was a five minute trip
>I know all the rules if driving but I'm scared to death of driving in traffic, I did it before but it was with someone else sitting in the car with me
>now I have to do it all by myself
>was thinking of doing a refresher at the same driver school but don't have enough money
So far I've been only to drive in the back roads by myself, thankfully where I work is close by but I need to regain confidence to drive in traffic again if I need to do a longer trip, anything I could do by myself to get my driving mojo back?
Just be confident, man.
And take solace in the fact that 50% of drivers are even worse than you. Old people, people with bad eyesight, people who multitask terribly, etc...
>>17118496
True, I'm probably over thinking this, my only other thing would be the highway which I only did once but thankfully I don't see a scenario in which I would have to, only rode it once with my driving instructor
Fuck yeah, I've been waiting for a thread like this since forever. I'm a driving instructor who's had experience working with licensed drivers who need that confidence boost to get back out there again.
Have confidence in the fact that at one point in your life you were able to pass that driving test which may have been quite daunting at the time.
First of all, the fact that you have the inclination to drive again is a great sign. You have acknowledged you have an issue and are actively taking steps to address it.
You honestly seem to be on track with it by slowly immersing yourself into quiet conditions and focusing on the basics. Eventually you will have built up your skills considerably so that you will be able to depend on your ability to control the car, and respond to changing traffic conditions accordingly.
Trust in your ability to drive the car well, so that once you're in a heavy traffic environment you will be able to handle the pressures of driving amongst other road users.
Keep slowly building up the intensity in terms of traffic and reflect on what you're doing well, and what you can improve on. Eventually this will be second nature for you to handle the rigours of heavy traffic and you will take pride in your ability to drive well in all conditions.
I'd also recommend working with a friend or family member who's an experienced driver and getting yourself into difficult situations where they can provide guidance if needed. That way you can increase the tempo of your driving. Also, adopt an assertive mentality on the roads where you embody confidence and knowing your rights, and also responsibilities on the road. Acting beforehand instead of reacting to your environment too.
What bothers you most about traffic?
Until about a year ago, I never knew "fuckboys" existed. My beautiful mind was unsullied by these vile creatures. But then… you know the drill.
Here's a definition I found on Urban Dictionary:
"Asshole boy who is into strictly sexual relationships; he will lead a girl on and let her down, then apologize only to ask for "pics" once the girl has welcomed him back into her trust. Boys like this will pretend to genuinely care about the girl but always fail to prove the supposed affection. He almost never makes plans because he has to hangout on his terms which could be the most whimsical of times, and if the girl rejects those plans because she has a legitimate reason for not being able to hang out, he will get pissed. However, if plans are made he will bail on them without a second thought. If a girl tries to stand up to this asshole he will most likely deny everything and turn it all around on the girl making it seem as though the conflict at stake is her fault and he has done nothing wrong and hates when girls bitch at him for "no reason." He will always come crawling back because he is a horny prick and can not withstand the dispossession of one of his baes, because he has more than one that's for sure. Texting such a boy will consist of the girl carrying the conversation and the guy responding with short answers 10 or more minutes after the girl's response, but when she asks why he takes so long to answer it will be because he is "busy" but he promises he likes her. Boys like this are egotistical assholes who can not be trusted and are hard to get rid of because they say all the right things to get the girl back."
Jeez. So how do we irradicate these cold-hearted snakes?
Dont give them sex and they will ignore you
>>17118472
You can't get rid of us. We are the monster you created. If you women were worth more than the gaping hole between your legs, maybe just maybe us guys might be interested in more than just sex.
I could care less about being called a fuckboy. I play the game to win, not lose. Ive tried being a good guy and treating women like human beings. It has a 10% chance of working and a 90% chance of blowing up in my face.
If you are a girl of some value, fix the women around you and the guys you attract. Then you might find a non-fuckboy to be happy with.
fuckboys are easy to spot, just don't gravitate towards them

For ages I've wanted to leave the UK. We already have 65 million on this small island, and quality of life seems to keep going down. We graduate university with tens of thousands of debt, secure a low-paid graduate job (if we're lucky) and seem to earn only enough to live on. If we are ever able to afford a mortgage or pay off student debts then it probably won't be until mid-30s at least. Most people seem happy to just spend their time in these jobs they don't care about, cramped up in shit accommodation, and living for the football/partying on the weekends. There are still lots of things I like about the UK, but I can't see myself having anything other than a very average future here.
I've always wanted to move to Canada. The country is 41 times the size of the UK, and still has almost half our population. Last summer I spent 2-3 months out there, and loved it. Landscapes were beautiful, people were friendly, and the future actually seemed hopeful. I think I'd like to move there, but I'm not sure if I'm ready. I've had depression for the last few years, but my family have been one of the things that I can still take comfort from and I don't know if it's a good idea to put an ocean between us. Plus I'm working towards qualifications in the UK, but would pretty much have to start from scratch in a low-paid job over there. I'm worried that I've just got 'grass is greener' syndrome and I'd be just as unhappy over there when I see the reality.
So what does anyone think? Move now while I have no commitments, or wait to see what the future holds? Was anyone here in a similar position and has some advice? Thanks
Fuck - title should read 'Want to leave the UK....'
irc you either have to marry a canadian woman or have some sort of skill they are in short supply of to immigrate to canada.
>>17118478
I currently have a psychology degree and am in the process of getting a Master's, so I think I could get to Canada on a PhD scholarship at least, although that would only be useful for a career in academia and I don't really want that.
This is a photo of my dog Duddley.
I got him when I was 11 and I grew up with him. He had his quirks, with his underbite and he only had one nut. He hated walking on wet grass and loved ice cubes. He was a cat-dog, a princess boy as we'd call him.
I came home on Monday to him laying on tummy on the floor. At first nothing seemed wrong because he was laying how he usually does, however he usually greets anyone who comes down our drive away at the door 'singing'/howling which he didnt do this time.
After giving him a pat, I noticed he wasnt moving his legs and he didnt try to sit up when I came to him. I tried to prop him into a sitting position and he just flopped onto the ground. Panicking I call my mother over and she tries to get him to sit/stand and he flops onto this belly once more. We call the vet (this was around 7pm monday night) to which she tells us that we could bring him in now, but they wouldnt do anything for him until the next morning and from what we've described it sounds like hes been bitten by a whip snake which the symptoms will pass in time, or possibly has a tick.
We get him on his bed, hes happily looking around and eating his ice cubes. He loved icecubes and prawns. Frozen prawns were his absolute favourite. We go over him looking for a tick which we didnt find, so we watch him and my mother takes him to the vet the next morning which is my birthday.
After waiting 6 hours for a call the vet finally calls and tells us there is something wrong with his spine, a disk has slipped out of place and he cant walk. He feels no pain, he can feel his feet being touched he just cant move them. There 2 options, the first is paying 7k+ on a operation where the chances are roughly 50/50 of him recovering. The second is putting him on medication which would hopefully help get him back on his feet. Our family isnt wealthy and we couldnt afford the 7k for an operation so mum opts for the meds. We go get him, put him on his bed and his breathing is a little labored which the vet said can be a side affect to the medication. He seems happy otherwise, we give him his ice cubes and some love.
We wake up the next morning and he's passed on. I feel like he held on until my birthday had passed.
I'm writing this so every animal owner doesnt take their pets for granted. It only took 2 days for my friend to be here, then not. It still feels surreal that he's gone, every time I come home I except to see him through the screen door waiting for me. How do I deal with this? I keep crying.
Please, go hug your pets. I wish I could.
>>17118434
Sleep tight, pupper.
You gave him a good life OP. Take solace in that.
How do I become confident even if I know I am less than average in the looks department?
>>17118360
Attitude! Try to focus on positive things about yourself and not try to second-guess what anyone else might be thinking or feeling about you. Remind yourself every day about something good that you are capable of and maybe even use that to your advantage i.e. what social aspects exist or can be explored! GL out there!
You earn confidence when you find out what you're capable of.
>>17118360
are you a guy? This is important
Are women who do yoga loose by default? Like what I'm getting at is are they all whores just trying to tighten up their vaginas to fool men into thinking they are virgins?
You don't know much about yoga, do you?
No, my girlfriend does yoga and she lost her virginity to me. She does it because she likes to be supple and to relax.
>>17118018
Then tell me o autistic one
I'm going to hang myself when I get home from work today
I advise you not to do that.
Don't.
I'll take that into consideration
I've been seeing a girl for around 3 months, we're both early 20s
she is extremely shy and has self esteem/depression/anxiety issues
we were traveling on a vacation together for a few days that went really well and was fun
when we got back things got really weird
she told me about how she didn't understand why a guy like me would love her for more than sex and that she felt she didn't deserve somebody as good as me and that she was confused why I even liked her
then she opened up about her past, which included having sex with much older men in their 30s and 40s without any kind of relationship attached. she talked about how she fell hard in love with some of these men even though she knew they would never love her back
she started crying and talked about how nobody had ever understood her before me and that people only wanted her for sex, then thanking me for finally understanding her and making her feel like she wasnt alone for the first time ever
we started having sex, and then halfway through she started crying uncontrollably, we didn't finish
I spent an hour calming her down and she went back to her place
the next day she told me that she was feeling terrible
for some reason I feel terrible too. I can barely eat food
this morning, 2 days later I just texted her that the fact that she was having one night stands with older men really bothered me and that I couldnt not tell her that it bothered me then turned off my phone because I dont think I can talk to her right now
what is going on and what should I be doing
Don't be hard on her. Probably her self esteem issues are eating her up and she may need some time to find herself. You could help her.
If you like her, let her know it, be there for her
She had a terrible emotional past so maybe it isnt easy for her too see it all good and with rainbows now
She needs time
It's a shit situation. Your girl is obviously a mess and needs help, but I don't think she can really change or heal. Maybe when she's 50+ she'll calm down but it's not even sure.
I'm quite an old fag and have this obsession with hearing people's troubles and have talked with many many women from 15 to 50+ and those issues are life long.
You can be here for her for a while, she'll trust you that you love her but there'll be many crisis like this one and it'll eventually be too much for you.
Also maybe you just want to hear that but at 20 I wouldn't have wanted to stay with a girl that slept with a ton of guys especially older men, it feels disgusting.
>>17117872
So much this. I know that sort of girl well OP. You can try to help, you can mean well, but the harsh reality is that some people can't be fixed how we wish they could.
She might eventually leave you at the drop of the hat as well. I'm assuming bipolar from the sounds of it. All the words in the world you reassure her with won't stick
how do you deal with depression/phobia based around time?
time is moving so fast for me and i know it will only get faster. I'm going to be 30/40/50 before i know it it feels like.
so fast that i can't even enjoy my life
i'm not even enjoying being in my 20's because I"m just dreading going past my prime. it's all down hill from here. my physical ability, my sexual drive, my looks, it all goes down the toilet.
the worst of it is having to watch my gf age. She has a 10/10 body imo, but I'm worried that I'll stop finding her attractive as I age.
everyone keeps telling me to live in the moment but i just feel so stressed about wasting my life.
shame bump
>>17117648
Oldfag here. Idk why I experience time moving so quickly but I do, like I always have. And to make matters worse, I have lifelong depression, anxiety, ADD, bipolar disorder and Im autistic.
There's literally nothing you can do about it bro.
