Have you seen these divs

Is it sexist if it works the other way? I've definitely friendzoned several women in my time.

It's a bit of a catch all term IMO. Though the events that article describes are obviously deplorable.

Took me ages to read that.

 

Human Traffic is a great film.

Never heard the term friendzoned before - although I am old now, but that article is fucking lazy implying it's always the male. The article is pretty sexist really. I've been on both sides of the friendzone coin and to be honest, although neither were pleasant, the most awkward was when a female friend wanted to take it further. I'm still very close mates with the woman I made an absolute fool of myself over my misreading of signals many years ago.

Although if she ever changes her mind...............

That last sentence is a joke in case anyone takes it the wrong way. I'm happily might-as-well-be-married now.

Until my friend realises what she missed out on........

Yeah, why not.

Big day for me tomorrow; I'm going to tell all my family they're gay.

Blimey, Bamber, didn't know you had it in you. I'm impressed.

Indeed. Get on the house thread for some serious Bamber tunage. And anyone who likes Hot Chip can't be all bad.

He's an enigma alright. All that Jessie J bollox I'm sure is just a drunken ruse when you look at some of the other stuff he posts. 

I'm still not sure if the Jessie J thing is sincere, if it is a joke or if Bamber is her manager.

A bloke at work with an occasionally bad nervous stutter met Jessie J backstage recently, where he was doing a fire risk assessment.

She apparently was acting a complete fucking arse to someone else working and disturbing her.

She went up to Jim to complain and the stutter kicked in bigtime.

Jesse took this as due to Jim being so nervous and flattered to meet her he couldn't speak when really he was gonna tell her to fuck right off and stop being twat so they could do their job so the venue was deemed fit for a gig.

I have based my opinion on her solely on this anecdote.

I.e. Jesse J has a flippant attitude to fire safety.

Bamber is the Martin Ashford of the Jessie J world. Pure devotion to the cause.
