True Pisces
We’re going to need a lot of help with Crunchy. Why do I have the feeling he’s going to spending a lot of time in the corner? Alone? Talking about the glories of his testicles?
[sub]Like I said before, the sig line of his proves I have ESP. I say it, he posts about 'em[/sub]
I was out to lunch with some coworkers. I needed the bathroom. We were in a dinky restaurant, so there was no bathroom inside. So I walked out side and wandered around a neighbourhood that I was not familiar with.
Will looking for the bathroom a pretty woman approached me to ask for directions. She was holding a map so I pointed her in the right direction. When I was walking back to the restaurant I realised that she had been flirting with me. I also noticed that she was still lost. So I went with her and found the place she was looking for.
She gave me her phone number (50% of it was me, 50% of it was help from you guys). But my question is …… Now what do I do? Please help!
Oh, a natural flirt, sure. I was just referencing what, ah, ELSE about you might be natural [sub](blonde, brunteet, redhead…)[/sub], and implying how that might be verified.
Okay, students? What I have just performed is a flirt that is TOO damn oblique. What we are attempting to instill here is a sense of balance, a way to locate the ideal middle-ground between what I just did and “Can I touch yer boobies?”. The lesson is, if the object of your flirt has a big “whooshhh” expression on his/her face, you’re being a tad too subtle.
[sub]BTW, Instructor Pisces? My saying that to Miss Mermaid was actually a test to see if she was one of those female types I referrenced in my first post. With your permission, I’ll offer to take any female students who appear to be that, ah, zealous and provide them with personal instruction.[/sub]

Now then… It appears TP has viewed your work in the field and has a high opinion of it. I’ve already shown that I can still make the occasional mis-step, so perhaps we might hone our skills mutually. You know, I’ll hone yours if you hone mine.
I forgot my weaknesses. Hmmm…I don’t know. Maybe I don’t pick up on signals that men throw out. Maybe there are no signals. I usually am an observant person, but where flirting is concerned I have no clue. Oh, and then if someone talks to me I have a way of making the conversation turn useful. “Oh, yeah, that lecture made me bored. What did you think of blah, blah, blah.” I am way too serious. And I don’t talk much. Making conversation doesn’t come natural. But when I get to know someone I can be very laid back. To get to the point, I need major help!
Ahaaa! I see. A “natural”. I get it.
::Looking around to be sure no one else saw the “whoosh” expression on her face just moments earlier::
Yeah, TP and I spent a lovely evening entertaining a couple of male dopers a few months ago. Frankly, I thought I needed work. But if True Pisces thinks I’m not embarrassing myself, then perhaps I’m better than I thought I was.
So, Tygr, what’s this about you being the sexiest man on the planet? Cite please.
Ok, Miss Cleo. You mention this every other thread I see you in. Time to set the record straight.
You said that line as a joke during a conversation where I was joking about starting a goofy thread about my testicles. It is no great leap of logic then (or mystical powers) that I would actually start a goofy thread about my testicles.
BTW - these posts you’re making talking about how brilliant your powers of ESP are will look pretty silly when I change my sig line.
Now then. Anyone else need tutoring? For some reason, TP and the Psychic Friend over there think I’m here as a student. I am here as a guest instructor and offer my services.
DL, let me assure you you have ** NOT** killed this thread. The Professor asked me to post that she is feeling poorly tonight, and may not be around. Apparently something she caught from an apple she was given. I won’t name names, but it ALSO gave her a WART…
