I forget if I shared this one - "Saving the iGays"
Yeah........... I remember my one and only Grindr experience real well. June 2009 when Jay came to visit and said, "lookie at this new gay app! Let's set up a profile together!" It was sort of fun for 48 hours.... or seemed to be fun. Grindr people spilled over to our facebook pages ... and then to all our facebook friends, gay and straight and family... and we got out of grindr but some of the guys from there still were lurking in facebook.... and things got real bad... I mean BAD!!!!!!! We killed off the facebook accounts and it still went on... A total nightmare.
But we can joke about it.... NOW. We learned a big lesson.
