The awkward moment when you just realised that one of your favourite bands changed their name from 'the morning benders' to 'POP ETC' and totally changed the genre/type of music they're playing.

The morning benders,

and
POP ETC

confusion and havoc follows.

------------------------------
I sometimes secretly envy others who live in a lap of luxury;
buy things mindlessly with no care for or concept of money;
date guys just for the sake of going on dates that are paid-for-
being driven around in luxury cars and eating at high end restaurants.




Yes these are not me, this is not me.
These are not the important things in life;
these are not the things that are meaningful or matter.

but sometimes, for split seconds,
just sometimes,

I envy that kind of life/living.
of being taken cared of financially-

In that way, i suppose we all (myself included) have our imperfections.

----------------------------
was talking to a friend and we broached the subject of footing the bill on a date- who pays?

There's the conventional thinking that the guy should always foot the bill as it is only becoming of a gentleman who does so, but i beg to differ.


In fact, I don't believe in these things-
Living in the 21st century, I believe men and women are on equal footing-
there is no logical reason why a man should be responsible for a woman's meals,
and no way a woman should expect a man to pay for her expenses.
In fact, such expectation would even border on being unreasonable.

Yet still, on the other hand,
I can't quite explain the incredibly nice feeling of having your date very generously pay for the bill without flinching or even hesitating to wait  for you to try to snatch the bill over.
It's the feeling of being taken cared of (even if financially) that is so assuring.



It's ironic i know.
