**Would you date me if I were the last person on Earth?  
How would you feel about a public database for sexually transgressive behavior?**

First of all, “last person” pretty much rules out dating at all. And assuming that it means “last person plus another” then maintaining a database seems hardly necessary.

If he’s trying to kill any of you, you might want to call the party off.

> I’m going to Aberystwyth! Thoughts on food & drink?**

Yes, I have. You can’t go wrong with any of the local Aberystwythian bwydydd or fwydydd. I suggest a frosty mug of cwrw to go with it.

Aberystwyth, incidentally, is situated right on the beautiful Ystwyth river. It’s all very pretty and idyllic if you don’t mind the desperate shortage of vowels which has plagued them for hundreds of years. Travel advisors recommend that visitors bring their own vowels.
