CORY.

An informal straw poll has indicated that three people understand the reference. I am okay with that.

But Brian, you said before you met your first boyfriend through D&D?
Brian: Yeah, he was a wrestler and into Dungeons and Dragons too. Good times. Good times. He put the moves on me during a game and the other guys didn’t notice.
I just…have no words.
How did he do that?
Brian: He passed me a note across the table, which isn’t that unusual in D&D, and the note said “Look under the table.” I was totally clueless, and so I look under the table, and he’s wearing sweatpants and they’re pulled down and his dick was out. So I shot back up from under the table, I’m turning beet red, but I’m also very turned on. I had no idea he was attracted to other men, so then I shot him a note back across the table that said you know, “Now you look under the table.” And so I reciprocated. And then he was like “Oh you’re really hard.” And I was like “Yeah…” So then we went to my room because we were playing in my house and we were going to “look for more pencils.” That’s where it all started. From there it was kind of a real high school, hush-hush kind of thing. [BUTT Magazine via The Awl]

It’s based on a book by Evelyn Waugh which I just picked up from the library. Stop When You Are Engulfed in Flames, and start Brideshead Revisited.
I could not agree more. And when you’re done with the book, watch the ITV miniseries with Jeremy Irons and Anthony Andrews, which is by far one of the most perfect and faithful adaptations of any book ever.

“And when we reached the top of the pass,” said Mr. Samgrass, “we heard the galloping horses behind, and two soldiers rode up to the head of the caravan and turned us back. The General had sent them, and they reached us only just in time. There was a band, not a mile ahead.”
He paused and his small audience sat silent, conscious that he had sought to impress them but in doubt as to how they could politely show their interest.
“A band?” said Julia. ”Goodness!”
Still, he seemd to expect more. At last Lady Marchmain said, “I suppose the sort of folk-music you get in those parts is very monotonous.”

I feel that Brideshead Revisited may now be one of my absolute favorite movies.
