Friday

Unfortunately I'm on the "out" group, as they're fairly extremist it seems and saw me as an outsider. They're of the mind that a bisexual man with a wife is just straight. I'm not, but... I don't know. So I don't have access to that particular crew any more and they don't show up at our bowling meetups. (As an aside, even if I had an in with them, I wouldn't offer it online. Nothing said about you, but I try to keep my online footprint fairly small. Nothing personal, friend!)

As you said though, those of us remaining in our crew don't look too fondly on that particular group. I can only imagine what they think of us.
