Oh, and the rest of you have mail (I think).
pout No mail for me…
ha ha ha ha… yeah, now that you mention it, those lil toes are … well … lil … really lil!
Yay you! … of course, you Have caught the pun between your board nick and the fact that gettin’ dream time isn’t turnin’ out to be so … well … easy …
Wow!!! eye flutter she figured out spoilers already … sigh… She really IS propeller-headed … near swoon
[beavis] hu huu hu huu she said head hu huu hu huu and she said keep commin’ hu huu hu huu hu huu[/beavis]
By the way, Iva did anyone mention that as a right of passage into the thread, you need to tell us both your hair color and your bra size … it’s just so we can color coordinate towels and accessories at the hot tub, and compute displacement …
raises hand … then double checks spelling, notes it is “il” … puts hand back down and sorta trys to look like he was just scratching his head … way high …
So, ladies, jumping Waaaaaaaaay back in the thread …
Y’all have discovered that us guys in OMFG are lovely delightful and innerly-attractive … but, but, but, but, you hadda get ta know us …
so, here’s the question: suppose I see a woman in a store, and for what ever reasons, she Really Rings my chimes … or even the other day in the little Greek kinda-fast-food place … a woman came in, and just in her chatting with the guys behind the counter, I thought … ummmmmm …
So, HOW do I invite her to read 7000 pages of OMFG and get references from y’all … so that she might be exposed to my very inner attractiveness? No, really, I saw great suggestions in another thread, about just starting up a "natural’ conversation in a club or bar … but, out in the real world … just heave a sigh and saunter away?
Didn’t mean to be mean! You go take a nap, dear. I’ll watch the boys for you! 
Eye contact, a nice, smile, and “Hi” are a good way to start, I’d think.
6, Did I mention I love afternoon naptime.
BTW… Eww! Ick! Mice. 
For more info, read my LJ.
6 is Such a nice guy …
What he asked! My “therapist” has been working with me on this, but y’all know about leading horses to water… and stuff…
Suggestions?
I really must be chopped liver today.
tap tap Is this thing on?
Funny. That’s what my “therapist” said…
Well, then, there you have it. Magic formula. Eye contact + smile + and speaking= oportunity to meet female.
eye contact smile "hi … I’d like you to sign up for the SDMB’s and read 8701 pages of OMFG so you’d get to know how
cool and everything I am …
then lets get back together and you can already be likin’ me…
and, Hey, chopped liver … I responded to you and your ‘no male for me’ comment … Whaaaaaa don’t I count?
Morning, everyone. Wanted to drop in for a bit before I leave and say hello, goodbye, I’ll miss you. 6, no more falling on swords, your own or otherwise.
[littlerosannarosannadanna]ThankYOU[/lrrd]
Yes. That’s probably why we’re all in the same place. And, as 6 said, why we like each other so much. When this thread gets in full swing I am reminded of nothing so much as my old crew at the ER. Of course, when we weren’t working, we were in various stages of drunkenness, but still.
Uh-oh. He’s got it bad Quick, Dreamer, get the dried frog pills. (Incidentally, I was amazed to find that some of you don’t read Terry Pratchett)
Why do they not get this???
Okay, everyone. I’ll check back in tonight when I get back from my drive. I cannot stay in this house one more minute. Have a great Saturday.
Anything for you, dear!
Wyatt, you have a winning smile and great sense of humor. Just be yourself! Sincere smile, eye contact (to her eyes, dear) and a simple hi, like everyone said, and you’ll be able to tell if there’s a returned interest. Then you can stumble over some silly comment about the weather and laugh that cute little self-deprecating laugh [sub]making sure you clean up after yourself quickly[/sub] that I would imagine you have and you’ll be in like flint. [sub]Who the hell is flint, anyway and how come he can always get in?[/sub] And if she’s still not convinced, you can give her my (or any other female here I’m sure) email for a reference. Don’t worry, I won’t actually tell her the truth.
Mo! Good luck on your trip! Sounds like a dandy fine time.
We’ll miss you.
dreamer, I’m with you all the way on the sleep deprivation issue. I’m figuring in about ten years, I’m going to just sleep for two months straight. It’s bad when a coma doesn’t sound like a bad thing.
I don’t know if you really know this or not but…
Flint was a 1967 version of Austin Powers… James Bond takeoff… Two FABULOUS movies!
So I have been dealing with chirality centers for the last few hours and I am fighting the urge to type backwards, but my spelling is bad enough left to right.
My mom is very into the high thread count sheets, personally I can not tell much difference above 250 (although always 100% cotton, I have a few standards after all). We have a really cool discount linnen store a few blocks away. It is owned by a man from Senegal. He and my mom get into these lenghty conversations in french. Makes me wish I had paid more attention in french class back in the day.
Dave ya got mail. I am not too worried about e-mail abuse
The preserve sounds beautiful. Here in New york we have no cars, and so getting out of the city is way to hard (and expensive)Yes beavis I know, I said hard again, leave it alone
Dreamer, no no not chopped liver at all. Perhaps a fine caviar. . .
Yeah for you who got extra hour(s?) of sleep! You should spank 6 for rubbing it in like that. See 6, I got your back.
Salem I realized I never acknowledged your sh***y week. Sorry. The stars have been out of alignment or something for the last few weeks as far as I can tell (combine that with the death like economy and were all bound to be moping). I hope it turns around though.
As to advise for the boys’ love lives, I will acknowledge that it is a bit harder then a smile and “Hi”. But that is a really good place to start. If it is someone you are probably never going to see again (ie chance encounter in a store or something) you will probably have to go out on a limb a bit. Now while that is risky, and there is a decent chance you will get shot down, it may not be because she does not like you, but rather because we all have to be warry. I do not know if that makes the chance of being shot down less prohibitive.
If you see her regularly, then by all means, and I can not stress this enough TALK TO HER!! If she takes you up in casual conversation more then once, try the dreaded asking her out on a date. I am amazed at how that practice seems to have fallen out of play. All the couples I know sort of just morphed into coupledom, and the boys were without fail really bad at the whole “asking her out” thing. Really go watch some cornball 1950’s love story, and plagerize if you need an idea.
I would actually say, do not send them to read OMFG. You want them to think that they are the only person you flirt with. But we can all send reccomendations, and say how we have never seen (read) you so taken with someone.
All of this being said, keep in mind you are taking advice from a woman who has been single for over 2 years. What the hell do I know?
Gee, I always thought it was Flynn(not Flint), as in Erol Flynn, and his reputation with the ladies(or men depending on where you look)
Dreamer, So Sorry You are not sleepign well. I’ve had a few bad nights lately too. but I get to bed real late(2am or later), and always seem to wake up by 9am.
mo, the future bro-in-law lives in san fran. gotta meet him at some point, so might be headed out there some time this year for a vaca. have to let you know if we are doign that, so we can meet up.
Taz
Just in case y’all hadn’t noticed, there seems to be a Spider in the house. But don’t be alarmed! I’m pretty sure it doesn’t bite unless provoked (or requested?).
Are you SURE you wanna know?
