Removing the feeding tube from our aging hipster plaid pants

In my HS the theater girls were shit out of luck on all fronts, because our two gentleman drama teachers (they were so refined) had been living in a state of unsanctioned connubial bliss for about thirty years. Of course, this opened the field up somewhat for those of us willing to take bit parts in "Our Town" and hang around late painting scenery.

So, you're admitting to a MMM too?

True, but the numbers/odds were still better. Looking back, i realized that although the teacher got the hottest chicks, and Lance and Crispin had their acolytes, there were a few reasonably hot and cool chicks available for a young Not Rob to attempt to woo.

Hindsight, etc.

How was the talent in Metal Shop, anyway? I've always wondered.

REALLY????

Yep. Really. Because I did, after all, completely miss the entire subtext of your post and wanted to make sure that I let you down as gently as possible. That's because I know how much it still hurts, after these countless decades since you were there.

Not that I'm saying you're old. Or bitter. Because I'm sure you're neither.

No, he is definitely someone else's SP. I don't have the patience to write those long posts anymore.

Is it a craving if you always feel that way?

Yes, I should have been clearer (billing today, ugh). The rationale for not being gay seems to run along the lines of mmm's logic: If it's only once or occassional, maybe (the married man getting the blowjob from another man hopes) it's just a one-off (heh) event.

ETA: A post to bolster my point: http://boston.craigslist.org/rnr/70293532.html

The men on LA Craigslist don't seem overly concerned over labels. Clearly they aren't gay.

They just want another straight guy (jocks preferred) to get together with them to jack off. No Gays.

Dear, if it had actually happened to me, I wouldn't be able to joke about it. The pain would be too great. It's much easier to know that my unrequited crushes were unrequited not because the guys were not attracted to girls at all , but that they simply were not attracted to me!*

It must be sort of like how you feel around here.

*Because mommy always told me it was because I intimidated them with my intelligence.

I don't think so. It's a craving if tomorrow the very thought of guacamole will make you go MMMMMMMMMF.

I was in theatre and apparently so was Ironhead- and we're about as Macho as any poster here (at least the males). I'm 6'11 and he smokes.

You have a very big bed.

I only smoke on the internet.

Those theatre boys tend to be petite, Hank's protests notwithstanding.

Cut him some slack. They did Our Town. All us hot theater types did Skin Of Our Teeth. He's still sensitive about that.
