:eek:
Well, I, for one, must say you’ve pretty much summed up me and my preferences in women. And, as far as stepping on feelings, sometimes even us guys didn’t know those feelings were underfoot until they get stepped on. Then we’re like “What the hell was that?”
We’re oblivious to those sorts of things until forced to pay attention.
Well, I am anyway. I don’t pay a lot of attention to my feelings most times, so they strike me in an all-or-nothing manner.
And, ShotgunZen, dude, you flat rock! Very eloquent response there to Optihut.
Hmm… I’m not sure what I’m qualified to advise on: school, women, world domination or ADD.
Failing a class isn’t the end of the world. Parallax and I failed quite a few but for far different reasons like: not studying, mudding and inattendance. Yup when I was in college I liked to stay up all night playing games and then skipped classes in the morning. What a shock eh? But Parallax graduated and someday when the kids are a little older so will I - I had a 3.85 gpa the second time around before I withdrew to have the munchkin girl!
Women are not the enigmas we make ourselves out to be. Find one who shares your interests and you will go far! Just remember to look for clues that the girl likes you (or doesn’t) and respond appropriately! Parallax was dense as a brick when it came to figuring out I was trying like hell to flirt with him! Eventually we got it all sorted though. Don’t waste time with girls who are sending mixed/no signals! Life is too short to sit in the corner and watch everyone else dance.
World domination is a worthwhile if lofty goal. Unfortunately I too have ADD and thusly have not made many inroads towards this goal. That and my underlings have trouble following my memos due to my dyslexia. I guess I will have to muddle through as a suburban housewife for the time being
Also FTR since we’re dishing on guyzngalz (btw, thanks fer the welcome home Maureen)
Let me just say that one of my criteria for a BF has always been whether or not he had chick friends that were not just females he wanted to bone. A guy without good female friends signals to me that he doesn’t really relate well to women as people, and that indicates that he probably won’t relate well to me.
so, while (((hugs))) to MisterOpty, let me be the first to really encourage you to have as many female friends as you have room for in your life.
Quite honestly, I would probably either be wearing a matching bra and thong, or just matching bra…
Think so? Put your money where your mouth is.
Bwahahahahahaahaahaaa…
Serves you right.
I didn’t have to. ~grins~ Never even crossed my mind…~swings the spotlight back around to the proper position~
Don’t look this way…
'Specially when you are doing the work of two people while the second person walks around like a zombie all day.
There’s not much difference, right?
I feel slightly vindicated. ~grins~
:eek:
My best friend, who lives in Hotlanta.
Laughing and shuddering at the same time is a weird sensation…
Froggie?
Hey darlin’! Thanks for the warm welcome. It’s great to see you too!!
Were they nekkid pictures? No? Hmm…wasn’t me then.
~hugs Mama Mo~
Can you feel the love? (not that kind of love you pervs)
Optihut, I’m sorry to hear about your test. On the bight side, you will probably do much better when you retake the class, having already learned most of it.
Regarding girls: If the girl from ICQ blew you off, don’t worry about it. Maybe she was trying to keep from hurting your feelings, but she should have been a bit more mature about it. You probably did the right thing by just saying “hi” to your neighbor in your present state of mind. Advise about women in general? Well, that’s nearly impossible to give. ~grins~ Just take things one day at a time, and I’d be willing to bet that one day you will wake up with a woman that adores you by your side.
Yes, honey. As in “kiss my…” which is now and forever in the OMFG lexicon. Quit with the innocent look, lady, it doesn’t go with the breasts.
Relationships. You’re waaaay better at them than me.
Rocky. Please. I’m not falling for it. Women crowd you like a 40% off sale at Nordstrom’s, and that’s just at Christmas parties. You just need to be a little more communicative.
Ya know I think my relationship success is more luck than anything else… that and watching my parents slowly self destruct and then seeing myself wander down that same pathway with a string of good for nothing boyfriends and waking up one day and deciding I was not going to spend the rest of my life in hell… the first 23 years was bad enough! (I think I managed to have more shit tossed at me in those 23 years than most people manage in a lifetime! Remind me to pit my parents one day.)
There was a little overlap between finding Mr Right and getting to the point where we could begin our ‘real lives’ together. It’s harder than it looks to completely extricate yourself from abusive and dysfunctional parents. sigh They really shouldn’t have had kids!
So somehow I met this incredible guy who was too shy to realize how awesome a catch he was so he was still available when I stumbled along and amazingly enough he genuinely likes me faults and all! That was the lucky part. The rest is just some honest communication and the fact that while we love eachother… we like eachother as friends too. So many of my friends who have horrible relationships with their spouses married in the infatuation phase and have learned that when you factor out sex and kids there is nothing else there. Quite sad. (And I’m not saying sex and kids are bad things but you need more than that to sustain a happy and healthy marriage in the long haul)
Pass it along. Maybe one of us will recognize her.
Uh huh. Must be, to invite you to come to bed.
Don’t forget Evil Dave’s. Oh, wait. On second thought, yes, go ahead and forget about us…errr…them.
Well, don’t feel bad. No one’s perfect.
LOL! Love the new 'tude.
Really? You have talents? What are they? Do I get to audition the Babes?
Hehe. A few jobs ago, the company hired a new manager for our group, apparently because he was a good bullshitter. He never accomplished any of the things he said were his goals, and never even made any serious attempts to do so. He’d start in on something, all enthusiastic, then suddenly something else would catch his attention, and he’d totally forget the last project. We dubbed him “Shiny Thing”, as in “…so, if we’re going to meet our goal…OOH! Look! Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny!”
Sorry to hear that, dude. But, I think you’ve gotten some good advice on those topics, already, so I won’t beat that horse.
'Kay. She wins.
I’d agree with that, up to a point. But, it can get problematic when both parties are extremely competitive.
Aint’cha proud of me for not touching the “ballbuster” line?
'Zactly! That’s cuz some women make a habit of searching for previously undiscovered “buttons”, and pushing them to see what happens.
ShotgunZen is a flat rock, now? First, Wyatt, now ShotgunZen. What’s going on, around here? Oh, well. Can I try to skip him across the hot tub?
The only problem with an outfit like that is it’s so hard to decide which way to have you face; toward or away from the audience.
Yeah, me too. Of course, it will probably be in a dark alley, under some old newspapers, and she’ll only adore you until the bottle of Ripple is empty but, hey, it’s better than nothing, right?
Heh! Like I said.
Personally, I think the trick is finding one you want to stick around, long term. But, that could just be me.
Yes, they did! WooHoo! On to game 7, with the big bats finally awake, for the Sox. And, another Pedro vs Clemens matchup.
But, the Cubbies lost, dammit. I wanted a Cubs vs Sox World Series. Talk about history!
