Never been a fan of school dances such as homecoming and prom.

Why did I read that as "porn", why?

I guess in Sweden prom is when you are much older- as you mentioned having champagne? I entered University when I was 17-18 years old and so prom happened when I was 17- the legal drinking age in most of Canada is 19. Just something curious I noted just now.

Yeah, it's mainly for the ones graduating from "high school" or gymnasium as the somewhat same thing is called here. You're most often 19 when you graduate, or at least turning 19 that year. And the legal drinking age is 18. Then, some people take younger friends to be their dancing partners, but I guess they have to be sober at the sitting in the evening. Nobody really looks in the park with the champagne though, despite parents swarming 8) Or so I hope, hrrm.

Skimming through everything quickly I read any "prom" as "porn"; my subconsciousness is a lewd thing...

 

[Somniac]

Why is it whenever someone types "prom" I read it as "porn?"

It seems a lot of people have this issue. Perhaps it says something about us as a community.

I went to my graduation-ball alone, stood awkwardly in the corner for most of it and then went and crashed a house-party down the street.

Ball-gowns are the worst. From now on I'm wearing a full-suit instead of a gown at all opportunities.
Suits are bad-ass.

Proms are lame. Then again I'm rather antisocial pfbbbffft. Only prom I attended was my 5th grade one, every other one was just "forget it" in my head. xD;

The main driver in me going to both the homecoming dance my senior year and my senior prom was my girlfriend, and we both wanted to go to have a good time. I'm sure though that it would have been different about prom if I was single then, but maybe not so much homecoming.

 

[Alexander Nicholi]

There's more than a few girls right now that would die to go to prom or the military ball with me, being the single stud I am. Unfortunately there's only one girl I feel it'd be right to go with, and she's moved away, soooo... wait a tick. That means I'm going single! Oh behave!~ >:D

Probably the most misused word in the Pokecommunity.

Meanwhile I saw something pretty awesome
"Oscar for DiCaprio"

But everyone still knows what people mean when they say it, so eh.

That was awesome! But in all seriousness, he should win an Oscar for "The Wolf of Wall Street." That movie was amazing and he did an excellent job as his character.

Probably the most misused word in the Pokecommunity.

And of course it's probably improperly defined on urban dictionary as well. Of course the correct term is asocial.

 

[Sir Codin]

Aren't urban dictionary definitions idiotic, biased opinions on anything anyway?

 

[Treecko]

Most of the time yes, but UD's definition of Antisocial is very accurate.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=antisocial&defid=2162021
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/antisocial
Antisocial doesn't mean you're shy or don't talk to people much guys. That's what's called "Asocial".

 

[Ponyta]

90% of the time, yes. It's just stuff for people to troll with essentially

 

[Taemin]

I realized how much ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Urban Dictionary was when I successfully found the throwing sparkles emote on it.

[Alexander Nicholi]

I kind of find that kind of stuff to be funny, actually. Breaking the social norm has an element of comedy to it when applied properly, for example the GNAA. :3

It's kind of like a magic spell where all curses are turned into love lol. It's very PC.

 

[Khilia]

It's kind of like a magic spell where all curses are turned into love lol. It's very PC.

So if I get this correctly there is some sort of black マジック going on here that automatically turns every curse word (e.g. the f-word) into ♥'s?

 

[Aeroblast]

It's just what this forum is programmed to do.

 

[Shining Raichu]

If those Japanese letters spell out "dude" then that's hilarious
