I've been dating my boyfriend for years, and he's always had dreams of becoming famous with his garage band from high school. I feel like it's time for him to give up and make music a side project. How can I approach this topic?
It's hard. You want someone to follow their passion and their dreams. If he's not ready to give that stuff up, I think you have to let him go. He's just going to feel like an unfulfilled broken person with crushed dreams. If you have starving twins in your fourth floor walk-up studio apartment, maybe there are some discussions you need to have, but if you're just two hipsters and he's doing that, you've got to let it roll.
My girlfriend and I have a generally good relationship, but I have a bit of a wandering eye. I want to focus on her and try to be monogamous. Any tips for a happy sex life with just one woman?
It doesn't sound like you're ready for that. You need to look into yourself and decide. You could talk to her about it, but that's probably not going to happen. I think everyone has a wandering eye to an extent — it's in our DNA to look at other people and think they're hot. But whether you act on it is another story.
Why are musicians better in bed?
If you're a guitar player, you have strong hands, so I suppose for massages or stimulation that would be nice. But it could potentially be worse, unless you're into dating narcissists.
Are you a narcissist?
I don't think so, but I have some tendencies. I don't know if it's being a narcissist or being a first-born male from 1966.
So you were pampered and given blowjobs your whole life?
Metaphorical blowjobs.
The guy I'm dating has a weird fetish. He likes to wear my clothes, like skirts and heels. Do I have to indulge this strange behavior?
It doesn't seem particularly out there to me. I wouldn't call it vanilla, but I'd call it vanilla with a little bit of chocolate syrup. So yeah, indulge him. Women's underwear seems like it would be comfortable. I'd wear it if I had no other clean laundry.
I'm obsessed with the lead guitarist in a local band. What can I do to get him to notice me, besides being in the front row of all his shows? Is that too obvious?
Yeah, that's probably not going to work. It's going to put you down a few notches in his psychological hierarchy. The best way is to hang around where they sell their merch and try to talk to him.
What should I say?
Just wear something hot and look really sexy, and then it doesn't really matter what you say.
So if my boobs are out I don't have to be witty or interesting?
I don't think any three words you say are going to be the answer. The way to open the door to meet someone is to hope that he thinks you're cute first.

the beginning of this interview was crazy good
"There is no castration fear"
"So you were pampered and given blowjobs your whole life?" Love it
Two funny things in this article. First, the interviewer actually used the word abstruse. He couldn't just say "your lyrics are sometimes hard to understand." No. He had to use a word like abstruse to make it sound like he is ultra-hip and intellectual.
Second funny point, the interviewer says to this guy "You lived in Williamsburg before the hipsters." Hilarious. Just WTF does he think he is talking to? Take a look at the guy's picture. He is very clearly a hipster. I bet he is wearing skinny girl jeans in that picture.
You sound more like a regular douche than an anti-douche. Also, I think the interviewer's a girl.
Where the hell is Williamsburg?

mmm NW Corner I meant....
Women's underwear seems comfortable???
I had the great pleasure of interacting with Stephen Malkmus in the flesh last year while they were on the Pavement reunion tour and I can honestly say he is the sexiest man I've ever met in my entire life. He, like, OOZES cool and calm and intelligence and... bangability! His hotness rendered me totally stupid, though, and I couldn't talk to him without making those weird baby noises that people sometimes make in the movies—I always thought that was fake, but that's literally what started coming out of my mouth because I was so stunned. When I got a picture with him and he touched his head to my head, I almost fainted.
talk to him
i had a one night stand with him...wasn't very memorable. he wore boxers.
j2aYBT Pleased to read intelligent thoughts in Russian. I`ve been living in England for already 5 years...
This just in:
My goat just ate next doors geranium.
Man, he's married? My heart is broken. Although, he would be to old for me anyways considering I'm like half his age. Sigh.
