Fuck Buddies!!!
As my good friend xrysopsaraki@ said,these are the "fuck buddy" rules:
1.No holding hands.
2.No spending the night. (i would say : Maybe,if you are dead-tired after a looong sex night...).
3.Fifteen minutes of cuddling max. But affection is generally discouraged beyond “Aww, you’re such a great fuck!”
4.Do not enter upon a fuck buddy arrangement or situation while drunk. There’s a difference between a one-night stand and a fuck buddy. Although entering either drunk is not wise.
5.You don’t want to go to bed with Will Smith and wake up with Steve Urkel, do you? Besides, don’t you want to be sober enough to remember all the marvelous sex you had the night before?
6.No toothbrushes. Refer to #2. There should be no ties at all, even if they cost only $2.49 and secretly you let your other fuck buddy use the same one.
7.Don’t discuss anything real. No family history, no favorite colors, no goals, no personal triumphs or tragedies. If you want to keep it real, you have to stay light: movies, bands, and favorite brands of booze. (i don't agree with this one..)
8.He is not obligated to have sex with you while you’re having your period. Most nice boyfriends will, but fuck buddies have the option to pass. If he doesn’t mind, then cool.
9.No sweetie, honey, schmoopie allowed. The only pillow-talk is fuck me harder, ride me bitch, or suck this big cock.
10.No dinners, no movies, no''quality time'' at all. (FOR SURE!!!)
11.Two guys/girls in twenty-four hours is fine, just be discreet. (This reminds me of something...;) )
12.You still need to dress to impress. Just because you know sex is a sure thing doesn’t mean you should answer the door in your pajamas unless they’re really tight and see-thru. Shower, shave, lotion up, smell good, and have some fun with that tight mini-skirt you would never wear on a real date. (The same counts for us,guys!Don't be dirty,smelly,unshaved-unless she wants you to- just because she is your fuck buddy!!!)
13.Break out the sex toys. Play up the freak factor and see how much you can get away with. Part of the fun of a fuck buddy is you don’t care if he respects you or not and so you can let loose and reveal that sadist tendency of yours. (This is not arule ho have to follow...do so,only if you are in to SM...)
14.Hide evidence. Throw out all condom wrappers (although you should no matter what, ew!), put the lube back in your goodie drawer, and for fuckssake don’t get any hickeys, bruises, bites, or scratches if you expect to date/fuck anyone else any time soon. And if you have a collared-shirt job, keep all that shit below the neck line so you don’t give your boss a heart attack. Or any ideas.
15.Pee with the door closed. Just because you’re using each other for sex doesn’t mean you can’t keep some decency.
I had to add that i'm sick and tired of all of you who have never felt the true HEAT of a FUCK BUDDY and you just seat and "decorate" your sexless thoughts with philosophy and mpla,mpla,mpla...Even for this,theories and words?That is:words in the AIR?No,it's better to hve acts even if they are acts for the D**K!!!
I can only agree with my good friend demy_online (whos blog is the cause of all of this) and those who agree with her,that anyone can get off as he likess and wishes!!!
If i want to be honest,i have to say that i have 2 girlfriends-FUCK THEIR BRAINS OUT BUDDIES for several years now and we talk about everything,we share enerything and we feel everything,those hours that we spend together...and then,NOTHING!!!
I mean that we aren't animals,senseless,"bricks","meat",we are just "mature",conscious,if i may say!"I know what i want and this is what i get these hours i spend with you",answered to me one of my FUCK BUDDIES when i asked her if "this" was enough for her!That moment,i'm going to remember it for ever as one of the best moments of my life!And i don't care if you want to call me"DRY",PROSE,EMPTY,SENSELESS...The only thing i know is that...i like and enjoy my way!!!
(To avoid misunderstandings...FUCK BUDDIES get in the..."refrigerator",everytime someone of the "group" has a relation...)...Stay cool,be good,go crazy,enjoy life...FUCK!!!

Am i the only one who hates capital cities?
Being one of the millions people who have lived their whole life in the second biggest city of a country (as Thessaloniki in Greece and Nis in Serbia),capital cities seem to me as something...outrageous,meaningless,ugly...(i can go on like this for the next three pages...).Many of you will not agree with me,but this is my thoughts,my opinion and i have to tell it,otherwise it will explode in my brain!!!
Unfortunatelly,the past six months,the Greek goverment decided that the exams for the recognition of the medical diplomas have to take place in Athens and only in Athens!The exams are hard as they are,even if someone lives near the exams center.Imagine how difficult it is for us who have to travel 500 or more kilometres to Athens,have to stay in hotels (and pay much money) or in relatives (the lucky ones) and find the way to the exams center,not knowing Athens at all!It is the exams difficulty x 100 times!!!This is why i had to spend the last 4 days in Athens...and i thank God that it was only FOUR DAYS!!!(even though it seemed like an eternity!!!).
While i was in Athens i had to travel through the city by train,subway and bus,met some young people,talked to some old people,ate some junk food...Well,i am almost sure now that my worst week in Thessaloniki (or in Nis),is way better than a normal week in Athens!People are more friendly in "second" cities,even if they are young or old,they will talk to you for fun or they just won't pay any attention to you,while in Athens people are coming close to you,only for their benefit,young or old ones..
One of my biggest disappointments about big cities is that they are much more organized and comfortable than any other city,although the whole country is paying the same taxes!As an example:in the bus station in Athens you can hear classic music and a soft female voice which says : "music journeys by bus through Athens",the same time that in Thessaloniki there is no bus station and people have to get wet when it is raining and they are waiting for the bus(oh,yes,in Thessaloniki we wait for the bus twice as long as they do in Athens).
Maybe i am just furious because i had to spend a large ammount of money and i didn't pass my exams,but i beleive that there is a huge injustice going on and it has to stop!!!So,come on,everybody,stop going in Athens or in other capital cities for shopping or for concerts,stop behaving as if people who come from capital cities are all coultural,clever amd nice and see what is really going on : they are enjoying their lives on our expence!We are working for their pleasure!Enough!Stay in your city,enjoy with what you are having there and soon enough,things will get almost equal...We just have to be patient...Oh,patience is something that people in Athens ignore...So,am i the only one who hates Athens?...
P.S.:If you come from Athens,excuse me,but this is how i really feel about most of you...Hey,cousin,i am not referring to you...

Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)-Baz Luhrmann
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99 If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience…I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked….You’re not as fat as you imagine.
Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you.
Sing
Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Floss
Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind…the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch
Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.
Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children,maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary…what ever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either – your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can…don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own..
Dance
…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.
Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen…

“WHAT IF GOD WAS ONE OF US?”
Saturday noon,after a very tiring week that except of the work,included "like the cherry on the cake" the unjust loss,the funeral of an old schoolmate and good friend,only 28 years old man (goodbye,Vasili,have a nice "journey" and i hope you will be good where you are going...I am sorry that i don't write anything more about you,but i don't know if you would like something like that…or if your family would like it)...
So,on a noon like this one,you think about going for a walk and a coffee in the amazing Thessaloniki and enjoy the shining sunny day or about staying at home,drink a coffee "with" yourself and think about what life is and what is its true meaning…And then,when you accept that you can't answer these so common yet so "absolute" questions,you can read some old medical magazines (i am a little bit "late" in reading about new stuff) and/or watch some repetitions of old episodes of some Greek series shows,the kind of "Papakaliati",SINGLES 2 and others that i don't recall now(forgive me)...
This post is about these series,these tv shows,although if i want to be honest,it is about what they represent and the people who are watching them.Don't get me wrong,i don't want to judge anyone.It's not on me to decide and judge who is "good" and who is not.I just want to understand a couple of thinks and express one of my questions.
So,i prepare an ice coffee,a frappe,with a little bit sugar and a little bit milk(ups,when did this expire,man?),i analyze the very heavy "life" question for 3,5 minutes and i repeat to my self for the thousand time that i won't find an answer(at least not today) and by taking in my hand the remote control,i go on having some "zapping" and activate the brain wash that pleases so many people every day in our world..
News,light boring movies,family series where the little daughter of the seven membered family is starting to have her first love disappointments and the mother (a restaurant worker-psychologist–best mom ever) is trying to prevent the "bad" thing (the sex),or teenager series where the five friends meet in the same old coffee shop and start another one funny-realistic "adventure",always with a happy ending.Sometime later,comes the BOOM,the repetition of a well known Greek show-serial…
After twenty minutes of brain washing with the particular "single" 2 series,i call a very good friend of mine that had suggested this show to me.My nerves are ready to explode because of the stupidity of the script writer which can be heard in every word that the actors say,who are trying to do something but don't succeed(total luck of acting ability),the director is trying to show off so that everyone will be talking about him in the huge academic classes of the director's academies,but i believe that the biggest "class" where his name will be heard is going to be my father's grill shop-and i suppose it won't be heard for "good"…
My friend listens to me while he is sleepy(i interrupted his Saturday noon sleep and by talking continuously i end up yelling about the bad quality of Greek television) and when finally i stop,i hear him say this:"You are addicted to the standardised American models of the imported serials and you can't recognize the true Greek television quality…”…Whaattaa?What did you say,MAN?I ask him :"Where did you read this?".No answer.I am sure that the answer is hiding somewhere between the pages of one of those magazines kind of FREE,MAXIM,DENIM,FOR HIM or something else that ends in –ΙΜ,-ΒΟΥ or -HOUSE,magazines with various content,with "heavy" thinking questions and answers as in "what does the successful man in modern Greece eat" and interviews from ten men of this kind (as if we care,since according to the same magazine we are losers or on the way to become one) or "what is this year's best GADGET for the Greek man"(with a price as 1800 payments of an un-GADGET-ed Greek man).You see,my friend is the typical Greek man:worker in a small clothing industry(or,if you like,a successful P.R. of a fashion house...yeah right...),a "dog"(listener-fan of Greek ethnic music,as one of my cousins says),buzukia-frequenter mostly or fake-high society-kits-bar lover(only those nights that he is not in the mood or doesn't have much money).Nice guy,interesting person,but with "Greek" taste...This isn't necessary a bad thing,it just doesn't match with my taste.
We hang up and i am still watching the disgusting(for me)series...I didn't have to wait for my justification to come:one of the actors "throws" a specific phrase that i remember to have heard in one American series.That was it.I am now sure that there is no quality,that the "recipe" for a good GREEK serial is only one and that is copying! I have to ask for forgiveness now from mister Papakaliatis for revealing his big secret and i hope that i didn't ruin his plans for his next book: "THE BIG GUIDE ABOUT GOOD COPYING FOR AMBITIOUS GREEK SCRIPT WRITERS"...
My question (have i kept you in suspense or did i make you get bored with what i have been saying?) is this:is it my idea or some things out there "go" together?I mean the characteristics of my friend and so many others who are "out there":amusement in buzukia,taste and listening to Greek music exclusively,low level of education,in some occasions low I.Q. and finally…addiction to one of the Greek series-shows-serials with pride about the Greeks success,worshiping imported stolen ideas!I mean,does someone have to be in this category of people to be able to actually enjoy one (if not all) Greek serial?(Honestly,i want to know what you think about it,even if you agree or not...If you disagree,it will probably be more interesting!!!)
The episode ends with the old,well known song “What if God was one of us?” (i think its original title is "One of us",by Joan Osborne)and the actress(a successful Greek actress,single mother,with all the Greek magazines congratulating her for her good work this year and her good acting ability that can be seen in these episodes...please,have mercy!!!)on a monologue,having some thoughts,that my 15 years old neighbor will hear and will make her think that she is a "completed woman",because it was only yesterday when she was thinking the same "chick stuff",as she calls it...
I don't want to tire you any more(and some friends are waiting me for coffee) i have only one think to say:if God was one of us,if He was living in our country,He probably wouldn't listen to Greek buzukia,probably wouldn't watch these series,probably wouldn't stand our Greek wisdom(that characterizes us,since ever,just because...well,"just like that,we are Greek,so we are wise" is the answer you will get by the ABSOLUTE-GREEK men...???),probably wouldn't stand the "Greek European sub-culture" and probably would leave for somewhere else...That's what i say and i am waiting to see if you agree or not...Either way,listen to the song,it's not bad even if you are a "dog",a patriot,an ABSOLUTE GREEK MAN,or "one of us"...
So,on a noon like this one,you think about going for a walk and a coffee in the amazing Thessaloniki and enjoy the shining sunny day or about staying at home,drink a coffee "with" yourself and think about what life is and what is its true meaning…And then,when you accept that you can't answer these so common yet so "absolute" questions,you can read some old medical magazines (i am a little bit "late" in reading about new stuff) and/or watch some repetitions of old episodes of some Greek series shows,the kind of "Papakaliati",SINGLES 2 and others that i don't recall now(forgive me)...

I don't want to tire you any more(and some friends are waiting me for coffee) i have only one think to say:if God was one of us,if He was living in our country,He probably wouldn't listen to Greek buzukia,probably wouldn't watch these series,probably wouldn't stand our Greek wisdom(that characterizes us,since ever,just because...well,"just like that,we are Greek,so we are wise" is the answer you will get by the ABSOLUTE-GREEK men...???),probably wouldn't stand the "Greek European sub-culture" and probably would leave for somewhere else...That's what i say and i am waiting to see if you agree or not...Either way,listen to the song,it's not bad even if you are a "dog",a patriot,an ABSOLUTE GREEK MAN,or "one of us"...
