What is your favorite year and why?

Thursday, July 15, 2021 6:29 PM

It doesn't have to be a calendar year, just the favorite 12 months of your life. For me it is August 1, 1977 - July 31, 1978. in 1977 I was working a summer job driving a bakery delivery truck and selling weed. I met my dealer at work and for those of you old enough to remember, weed drought in the summer always occurred because back then weed came from south america and summer here is winter there so no crops. For some reason he always had pounds and I bought 2 every other week and sold them through my two younger brothers, who each went to a different high school. I returned for my Junior year of college earning $100 a week cash and a free ounce. Every week. Minimum wage was $2.30 an hour. So my take home was the equivalent of a 50+ hour a week job, plus the ounce. My girlfriend was pretty hot and attended a school nearby, with no nightlife. She and her friends came to the frat every weekend and for those of you who remember college, how popular was the guy who produced 3 -10 women to party with every weekend? At 25 cents a beer $100 cash goes a long way. Living in an after hours bar with weed and a bedroom upstairs was nice too. Our spring bash set a 6 hour beer sales record as we managed to sell 365 full kegs of beer in 6 hours. Mass grass, our reward for the party was an amazing party where we rented a field; damned the cold stream to fill it with beers; had generators for the band and food and then back to the house for sex with your girl before dinner that night. Every Thursday a sorority of girls dorm came over for a party, all free. Bar opened after bars closed and we served alcohol from 1-5 am both weekend nights. Wednesday night was 25 cent beers if you brought your own pub mug to the pub and every Tuesday was 10 cent beer night at barselottis. Made high honors both semesters and scored 648 on the LSAT. Took the following summer off to tan and screw, sell weed and ride my motorcycle. Funny thing is my weed dealer is now an Opthamologist, my ex-girlfriend a medical doctor and one of my frat buddies a District Attorney. Go figger. Tell me about your favorite year.

1998—> a time period where I was really a carefree child without other nonsense. Lots of fun outings I remember with family and Girl Scouts. 2011–> last semester of high school/summer in between/beginning of college, my social life ramped way up and moved in with a friend and her family, did a whole bunch of silly stuff, and a whole new way of life as I knew it at the time began 2019–> finally finished school, personal development stuff, and was the year I was traveling around the country. Don’t feel quite “done” yet but it’s alright there’s other stuff to focus on at the moment.

June 2006 - May 2007. Got out of my miserable shit job, every day felt like a godsend. August 2008 - July 2011 (any 12-month interval). Business school, great friends, endless partying, world travel, and scads of pussy (civvie and strip club). 2021 has been pretty kickass, too, though.

"Funny thing is my weed dealer is now an Opthamologist, my ex-girlfriend a medical doctor and one of my frat buddies a District Attorney." Not really. Some people choose to grow up. Good for those who can find success and contentment in life. I might be living my best year now, but I'll have to see how it turns out. If it wins I'll bump the thread. Otherwise it's probably something around 2000 or 2001.

1984, the year I met my wife. Best year ever. 2011, the year I met my ATF.

1980. The year I spent 99 days on rivers whitewater rafting throughout Oregon and northern Cal. (I boated the American River in Sacramento on Dec 31st thinking that would make 100, but I had miscounted in my boating diary.) Including 4 trips of 5 day duration, maybe half a dozen 3-day trips. Hundreds of fun rapids, gliding though some of the prettiest country in the West. I was good, too. Could get the biggest splash out of a little wave, or find the one safe way though scary, powerful, whitewater. Didn’t hurt that I was getting the best, regular and frequent, loving while sharing these adventures with my future wife. And getting paid for having such fun. 2nd choice would be 1995, the year we discovered Contra Dancing.

1992 - Newly married. My wife back then was gorgeous and slim. No kids but trying to get pregnant. We had sex constantly since my wife's lifetime ambition was to become a mother. Lucky for me it took several months for it to happen. I had been with the bank for a while then, so even though I was in my 20's, I still had a low six figure income. Very little obligations so we traveled a lot. And I don't think I stepped into a strip club once during that year. Had no reason to.

2001. Last year of grad school, had no Friday classes and a friend who also had no Friday classes headed up to New Hampshire to ski every Friday. I think I went skiing something like 35 days that winter. Was a heckuva last winter before the real world finally began.

1984 - was 23 yo, just started a great job that I loved, paid pretty good a was a job that doubled as a pussy magnet, but was also going out with the hot chick who would later be my wife. Only stress was not getting caught juggling women. Plus I was physically invincible (so I thought), could drink all night, and still do a great job. I was so horny I would go to “go go bars” to pass time before dates. Crazy.

@skibum609 I will play along and answer your question: Q: What is your favorite year and why? A: My favorite year in the context of TUSCL was 2016-2017 Because, in 2016 I still enjoyed OTC with my ATF stripper, turned into Sugar Baby type of relationship, were we would meet once a week, on Sunday afternoon, we would get an hotel room and would massage each other, make love and sometimes we would go to dinner to a fancy place. She would spend the night in a few occasions, because, exhausted, she would fall asleep with her head on my chest, like the little angel she was. I have thousands of pictures I took of her modeling the sexy outfits and lingerie I got for her. She texted me one last time to thank me for the relationship and informed me she was moving on. Worth every penny and every second I spent with her. Then in 2017 I meet my ATF woman a high end escort from Russia in Beverly Hills. I wrote an article about my experience: “How I found my All Time Favorite woman.” https://tuscl.net/article.php?id=50809 In 2017 also a former ATF came back into the picture and we were considering a mistress/Sugar Baby type of arrangement and we tried for a few months. I remember what was once said by the Greek statesman and orator of ancient Athens Demosthenes (384 – 12 October 322 BC) “We have courtesans for the sake of pleasure, Concubines for the daily health of our bodies, And wives to bear us lawful offspring and be the faithful guardians of our homes" His orations constitute a significant expression of contemporary Athenian intellectual prowess and provide an insight into the politics and culture of ancient Greece during the 4th century BC. In this one startling sentence is the Greek view of woman in the classic age, and in any age, as long as the man can afford it...

Maybe 2021 I just thought y to always top the previous year. Hard question to answer there’s so much that goes into it. But the mongering side of thing has been good. I actually make money now and I’ve certianly been using it

I've had a lot of good years but if I had to pick just one it would be 2002, the year I got divorced after 27 unhappy years of marriage.

I've strived to live my life on an even keel, other than a multitude of various indiscretions, Lol I've had good years and bad years, rough moments in good years and great moments in bad years so nothing really sticks out.

You guys are admitting you've peaked. Not me. As Ray Kroc said, "When you're green, you're growing. When you're ripe, you start to rot. So, I want to be forever green, always growing."

No one year stands out as my favorite year so I'll do my least favorite year instead: 1995. In the late eighties I lived in an apartment complex by a army base. Most of the tenants were soldiers or civilian employees from the base. Several years later they closed the base. This left a lot of empty apartments in the complex so the owner dropped the rent. The bad part of town was nearby and slowly spreading in the direction of the complex and this hastened the process of lots of ghetto types moving into the neighborhood. I would walk to a nearby convenience store and have people beg for money, want to buy drugs from me or offer me food stamps if I would go into the store and buy liquor or cigarettes for them. Cars started driving through my complex late at night playing loud car stereos and my neighbor below me would come home at two in the morning and start to play his stereo. People, instead of taking their dogs out for a walk, would just let them out so you also had barking dogs late at night roaming around the neighborhood. One day I came home and my next door neighbor saw me and invited herself into my apartment. She then tried to talk me into having sex with her in exchange for me buying her crack. Finally, my apartment was broken into while I was gone. A number of items were stolen, the thief sat on my couch and burned holes in it with his or her cigarette butt, and he or she took a cake mix out of the cupboard and set it on fire on the counter. I then moved out. I had grown up in the suburbs and this was my first close contact with inner city slum dwellers. The lesson I learned from this was that many of them are very bad people and if they start moving into your neighborhood you need to get out quickly, even if it means paying more for your rent.
