> I told the absolute truth about all of that. I explained it in the other thread. I chatted with a stranger online, we shared a few things in common. Later I went to a baseball game for users of that system. A woman there was getting harassed by some people, I went to her defense, it turned out to be the woman I was chatting with online, and the rest is history.

There’s a small problem with that story, Sammy.

> Ballsy move! But hang on a second. You were chatting online with a bunch of friends so loudly that your future wife overheard the conversation because she was in earshot? You’re doing the internet wrong; you’re not supposed to actually talk to your computer when you type things on it, much less loudly enough to be overheard by your future wife. Also, you’re lying.
