    Indeed, lol. And, man, they really bully the hell out of him but he takes it like a champ. Did you see the one of him explaining the plot to Double Down? It's Rem Lezar level funny. (btw if you haven't seen that one, definitely look that one up, too, ha ha)

    Post your favourite music

    A bit late to the party with this band. Not a huge fan of them but I love this song so much. One of those pretty, takes-you-back songs.

    The OA season two

    FIVE seasons?!? I can't imagine where they would even take it from the second season finale but good to know they have a plan, at least. Love just about everything Brit Marling does. And yeah, I loved The Leftovers! I'm a huge Damon Lindelöf fan (Lost is one of my all time faves) so I...

    What Platforms You Use to Meet People

    Thought I'd start a thread asking people what platforms they use to talk with friends or meet new people, be they forums like this, facebook, twitter, various apps, gaming sites, etc, to give everyone a better idea of the options out there. This place is great for learning about issues and...

    Lacking of friends

    Close friends are hard to find. Most people grow up around kids their age and become close based solely on geographical convenience. It's hard to imagine really that someone you truly connect with is gonna live next to you or happen into your life serendipitously. But don't give up. Though...

    Sociopaths

    I feel where you're coming from about people. Here's the thing though, personally I've been cursed with an innate optimism. Having grown up in not the best circumstances, once a series of unfortunate things starts happening, one either rages to the point of taking it out on others or throwing...

    Hello again!

    Hello, fellow Phobies! Er, social phobia warriors? Soshie Fobs? What do we call ourselves these days? That's the crux of it, eh. Anyhow, I've been absent from this site for a long, long while and I thought I'd pop my head up out of my hobbit hole and try reconnecting again. This place has...

    The OA season two

    Curious to see if anyone here is a fan of The OA and watched season two yet? It dropped about a week go and once I finally got access to Netflix again I binged that shiz (8 hours worth) in one day. Won't spoil anything other than to say I thoroughly enjoyed it but it's quite different in tone...

    Obscure 60's Psychedelia

    So I tried making an obscure 60's music thread awhile back but it became hijacked by other (well-meaning) individuals spamming their own favorites into it and I lost interest. However, a productive void spurned on by insomnia has reinvigorated my motivation to once again post. This may be a...

    How Are You at Solving Mysteries?

    A few years ago I posted an appeal to the peeps at SPW asking who was interested in playing a mystery game on ChatBox or Google chat. It's a board game called Crack the Case that can be played online in which I give you a brief description of a murder/crime and you ask me questions based on the...

    60's Pop/Folk/Psychedelia

    I'm a huge nerd for obscure 60's bands, in genres spanning garage rock to pop to psychedelia to folk to country to bubblegum and so on. The time I didn't spend with friends or socializing I used to research countless websites and forums looking for any unheralded sonic nugget I could find...

    The Tricky Task of Explaining Yourself to New People

    One of the things that makes meeting new people so damned difficult is having to explain social phobias to those who don't understand it or would belittle it. It's been a few years since I've made any new friends. And these are online friends only. I have no offline ones. But even with...

    Tell us who you REALLY are!?

    I'm bored, so I made up this list. Be as deep or silly as you want! If you were in a band, what would your band name be? What would your last meal be? If reincarnation is real, what kind of animal/insect would you come back as? Which celebrity would you like to switch places with for a month...

    Bruce Jenner and SA

    I watched the interview last night. I felt sorry for him. I know he and his reality show family are ripe for ridicule, but then I thought about my own social phobia. Knowing what I feel/think/go through just with that. Then I imagined having to deal with that AND paparazzi/press/late night...

    The Walking Dead

    Who else thought that last week's episode "Them" was one of their best? I'm sure a lot of people will complain about how slow it was, or that nothing happened. What I love about the show are the times when they focus on the small details of survival, which are quite realistic in said scenario...

    Animals, shmanimals!

    The aardvark doesn't bark. The beaver wields no cleaver. A cow doesn't meow, But my dog can saw a log! An elephant's intelligence Is as high as the fox is sly. Giraffes are good for laughs But hyenas don't rhyme with anything! Iguanas are no primadonnas. They don't cackle like a jackal Should...

    The Walking Dead season finale (spoilers)

    What did you all think?!? First off, I love the show, but am objective enough to admit I don't love everything. While this season had some highs and lows, I thought each episode offered something good, even if some scenes or characters worked and others didn't. Having said all that, I really...
