Bah. Crying at 4:45 in the morning sucks....

I should never have watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nFGRaw-XSE

Stupid Youtube.

1. I'm not sure I want to start my Monday off in tears. Would you

like to discribe what you saw? Happy tears I hope.

[Smarmie Doofus]

4. Brokeback Mountain... urban cop-style.

No happy tears... one of them gets killed off as usual.

Pretty well done. Don't know the series. Looks like cable.

[Hissyspit]

2. I saw that when it originally aired. Good episode.

I tend to like the ones set in the 1960s.

[moez]

3. Yeah....

seeing people betraying their spouses and families will do that to you...

[Smarmie Doofus]

5. Nice simple world you live in. Congrats. nt

[moez]

6. Simple?!

making a life-long commitment is anything but simple. The easiest thing in the world is to jump ship and leave your (newborn baby, wife, whatever) for the first opportunity that comes along. The fact that these guys are abandoning their families for people of the same sex does not alter anything.

[WillParkinson]

8. So in your opinion...

They should continue living a lie for the sake of others who, in turn, are also hurt by the lie...?

[moez]

9. I'm saying that they should honor their commitments.

The fact that they are gay is not germaine to the conversation. In the video, the one guy has a brand new baby (maybe months old), the other guy is the father of three - both guys are currently married.

I would say (and have said) the same about any scumbag that cheats on his pregnant wife; or, as in this case, a wife at home with a new infant. They're behaving in an in incredibly selfish manner and guided by their own "needs" - to hell with their families...

[WillParkinson]

10. Honor their commitments....

What about their commitment to themselves?

And if you were the wife would you want to live the rest of your life with a man who might love you, but doesn't really "love" you?

I understand what you're trying to say, but I think you're mistaken. Growing up and trying to repress who you are will not work. It always finds a way to come out.

26. Get lost. You took a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

[sui generis]

12. maybe if the pressure to commit for the wrong reasons didn't exist

then people wouldn't make the wrong commitments.

I don't advocate giving up responsibility if one gives up the relationship, but it's also responsible to give the person you claim to love a chance at love with someone who can really be completely into them. And that goes for all the players in that play.

11. Woo-hoo, trolling in the LGBT forum is such fun! Welcome!

Mondays are "trans-trolling" day here in LGBT. "Gay-trolling" doesn't start until Wednesday (thought you knew, gurrrlllfren).

The "hot lesbian chicks-trolling" starts on Thursday night and ends early Sunday morning. It's always a crowd pleaser.

Tuesday, Friday and Sunday are "LGBT people are racists-trolling" days.

Now that you know the schedule, feel free to drop in anytime. :hi:

[Chovexani]

16. I lol'd!

7. didn't take long for this to turn into moralistic lecturing. nt

[Duncan Grant]

13. Do you mean there's a broader social context at work in the clip?

We mustn't speak of it.

(lifts back of left hand to forehead)

10,000 years of civilization can't be wrong!

14. marrieds are SO oppressed -- protect the marrieds!!!

35. Oh heck no...

I cried when Snoopy Came Home.
I cried when they shot Old Yeller.
I cried when Tasha Yar died.
Years ago I cried when Ash and Pikachu got together.

I know how the movie ends and there's no way I'll ever watch it. The song is pretty, though.
