Speaking of “getting lucky”…
never mind
Wait – Wait – Wait
the {“10-level-hot” (such as bitterSweet babes next door} thing was Meant to be an example of “Good Stuff” happening to folks who are making an effort of “doing good” in their lives! (as in: ‘reward’ for me … well, And for them :D)
it was NOT meant as {having to live next door to Wyatt} being an example of Nasty bad-crap befalling some wayward living babes!
Here’s a Karma thread from a couple days ago:

My post ended the thread, as usual :dubious:
I used to believe in karma. Even the Bible says that you get what you give three times over. But if you had to deal with my piece of s**t coworker who always comes out smelling like roses, you’d doubt too.
What goes around, comes around? Oh, sure! Just remember, though, what comes around the mountain, will be drivin’ six white horses!
I’m going to set up a “Hot or Not” account just to see if Bittersweet will reply to me if I put that I want to meet her 
If Karma works, then if I click on “yes” to the question “Do I want to meet Bittersweet?” I would suppose that she would do the same for me.
Although I am still open to the idea of reincarnation and I do believe in “what goes around comes around,” I have seen what you are talking about at work.
Two or three very “spiritual” people that I know refuse to do anything to help those in need because “it might interfere with their karma.” Yet they don’t seem to mind interfering with another’s karma by doing hateful and mean-spirited things.
It seems to me that if you do something helpful for them, then that must be part of their karma too. Sounds reasonable to me…
I think they use the idea as an excuse not to do anything.
Lemme put that through the Karma Calculator here …
Ah, there we are:
If You, verbigerate are:
a) somehow amazingly hoter, than Bittersweet, you’d get replys from a bevy of amazingly hot Bittersweet-quality women, undoubtedly including Mz. B.
b) Equally hot as the 10-hot Bittersweet, you’d get replys from a few Bittersweet-hot women, possibly including Bittersweet
c) If, however, you’re say a “7” — 3 hotness-points® below Mz. B’s well agreed upon “10-ness” … then Karma would dictate that a Whole Bunch of very lust-driven “4’s” would manage to hack into your account, discover your address, pop the lock on your door, and gather you in as their Love Slave Whoooooooo’s yer Mommy?!?!?
d) If, on the other hand, you were say, actually a “4” (for a comparitive hotness-points® rating of <minus 6>) … Now, Karma dictates that you get busted for some felony you didn’t commit and end up getting introduced to your new ‘best friend … Very Close Best Friend’ who’s been in this cell for 11 years already, has spent his days doing nothing but working out … and Believes, very strongly, that you, Should believe in “love” at first “lights-out.”
So… ya rolls yer Karmic dice and ya takes yer ‘not allowed to lie to yourself’ chances …
repeating spell check is my friend, I WILL use spell check … spell check is my friend, I Will use spell check …
“replies” “replies” and “comparative”:smack:
I think that thinking too much about karma sort of ruins its effects. I mean, if you help an old lady cross the street and then stand there thinking, “OK, Karma, you owe me something good–that old broad kept stepping on my left foot!” then your karma’s ruined.
Similarly, relishing the idea that some bastard who done you wrong is going to meet with some horrible fate one day as payback for his transgressions against you sullies YOUR karma, too.
In short, what j66 said.
On another note, however, your karma seems to be improving already, bittersweet–you seem to have garnered quite a few potential dates for this weekend by posting this thread!
