Sex. I never have been comfortable around people that feel the need to discuss their sexual lives in public. I kind of feel as though that should stay in the bedroom, or at least around your OTHER (if you know what I mean) group of "friends", if you're into that. Not with me.
If you mean subjects I'm not willing to discuss intellectually, nothing. I find political correctness and the idea of offending someone or being offended myself silly.

I feel you, man. This comes up all the time at my 4.0 GPA Club's biweekly orgies and I'm just like, "Seriously ladies? Stop bragging so much."Kukulski said:
Discussing religion makes me uncomfortable. This is especially true in conversations with practicing Christians. I'd just rather not get into that. The best case scenario is them subtly filling me in on their relationship with God. More likely they'll either proselytize or tell me I'm going to hell. In any case, it makes concealing my intense disdain for the worldwide influence of their religion fairly difficult. Definitely not good times.
I'm a great listener and willing to be devil's advocate and debate for any side for anything (doesn't matter how evil or good is set topic) however I do have fears that when I get into the topic of race, by the time I'm finish. you will call me a racist and feel like I'm the next Hitler.
Politics and religion. You can't win, stop it.
If any conversation involving any of those start up, I will pull myself out and just become a spectator.
Especially when it's my more opinionated friends going at each other.
World War Three would be more tame.

Me doing things, I.E., Hey Brian, are you going to...?
Honestly, does it really matter to you? If it does then when i answer with the inevitable no make a more convincing argument than "you should".
Does this happen to other people? Or am i just super easily irritated by dumb things...

My social life - I don't have one. I don't have any problem hearing about what other people do or what they're up to, but when it comes around to me, I never have anything interesting to add. "Well, I watched TV, read a book, played a game..." The other day someone at work was telling me about Skype and I asked him what the big deal was (forgetting people actually do talk to each other for fun) and he told me I should get one because it's a great way to talk to friends. I jokingly said, "Ehh, I don't have any friends. Psst." He seemed really taken aback by it. I just hate to come off as emotionally vulnerable or needy, since both types of people annoy the hell out of me. Seems like talking about barely ever leaving the house might make people think I'm starved for attention, when most of the time I really don't care that I'm alone. Shit, it's hard to even bring it up now.
I also get uncomfortable when sex rolls around in conversation. Again, not about other people having sex or even the person talking having sex, but me not having sex. Not so much around people who already know, but people who don't know about my never having had a girlfriend. The worst is when they think that they can personally do something about it or "help."

Nothing comes to mind besides sex, considering that's nobody's business other than my own, and, frankly, I have zero interest in knowing about anyone's sex life.
Don't you dare say this. I consider myself to look like a down-syndrome turtle but I've found the most amazing girl in the world who's beautiful and smart. It isn't always about external appearance and maybe one day a girl will praise you for your features. Oh man, I apologize for changing the subject but I couldn't let that go.RAKtheUndead said:
You have a point but man did I find this one sentence funny.Gralian said:
OT: As mentioned, religion and politics. I have a differing opinion from the common consensus and would rather not talk about it since a lot of people can't keep arguments civil.
Sex and masturbation I also find kind awkward subjects, especially the latter one.
The thought is nice, but you're forgetting luck and circumstance. In the great poker hand of life, you can get dealt a crap hand each and every time. Not everyone can get a straight diamond flush. I agree with RAKtheUndead. It can get a bit frustrating when people talk about love and sex when you're single and not exactly confidant. You may have just been extremely lucky. I'm not saying you personally are ugly or undesirable in any way, but think of it like this: Someone has to win the lottery, right? They've got a 1 in 21374 chance of winning all that big money, just like someone like you, or me or RAKtheUndead over there has a 1 in 21374 chance of meeting our dream girl. You were just damn lucky enough to be that one.BigEvilTurtle said:

I guess this is the unfortunate truth. I just believe that one has their entire life to find a true love so giving up shouldn't happen until you're quite old.Gralian said:
Drugs,
I'm tired of people trying to force it down my throat. "Dude, it's like, totally awesome. Come on."
No, just no. Stop it, and go away with that stuff and that topic.
Same with politics and religion.

Fight Club, cause that would be breaking the first two rules.
OT: I wont touch a topic involving religion (just a can of worms not worth opening).
