"You remind me of my favorite porn star"

Either everyone was drinking last night, or random people just decided to April Foolz me. I really think it was a bit of both. I happened to be up particularly late last night, awaiting the arrival of some friends who will be staying the weekend for my birthday, and all of a sudden, I get a strange Facebook chat message.

Facebook chat is pretty shitty in general. It's really glitchy, and it's easy to message the wrong person. I never reconcile Facebook friends, so many of my friends are people I've met once or hardly even know; I know most of them, but there are always a few stragglers. One, in particular, was this guy I became FB friends with in college. I happen to remember my roommate encouraging me to add him because he was a child star in one of her favorite kids movies. Pretty weird, I know.

So, this guy sends me a message saying "hi." I responded, but assumed a. he meant to message someone else, or b. he was going to ask me for a donation or something. Anyway, the conversation continues, mostly out of boredom. He asks if we can switch to AIM, and at that point I mentioned it to my roommate (the same one who was there when I added him in the first place), and she tells me to talk to him.

Then, it gets weird. He starts asking me inappropriate questions. This is probably where the conversation should have ended, but it didn't. As incentive for me to answer, he tells me that I remind him of his favorite porn star. WTF. Do I really look like a PORN STAR?!?!?? Nope. I tell him that I'm pretty sure that's not a compliment. The conversation ends pretty quickly after that.

My stepbro was also being weird on Facebook chat. Nothing inapprops at all, but just very chatty. Why was I the only one who didn't drink a fifth of whiskey?! Anyway, here are my takeaways from this:

1. I thought cybersex ended like 15 years ago
2. Drinking on Thursday is the way to go, post college as well
3. This could have been my chance to have a sexting friend, but I think I'd need to know the person more than having watched their movie as a kid

That's my story of the week. My birthday party rager is coming up this weekend. It's a scavenger hunt pub crawl and should be good times. Maybe I'll make some memories to share.
