What Does a Person Have to do to get his "friends" to quit trying to get him laid?

not bad. first time i’ve seen this thread.

we could have always talked through this via email, but we want to start a thread.
i’ve got no problem with that…have at it.

i do believe i might have said that what i wanted, for my neighbor, was to help him a bit out of his shell. i wouldn’t expect him to come up and say “hey, help me out of my shell”, which is fine and dandy.

anyways, long story short, it’s not that i wanted necessarily to get him laid. sure, i may have said that in the original post, but i thought the post would also probably sprout off into different areas as well.

anyways, if you want to get rid of the confusion, feel free to email me. or you could just keep on going with the fun (and inaccurate) typecasting that some of the people replying to this thread seem to like to engage in.

i’d have emailed you with this reply, but you’ve got your email responses turned off. mine should be in my profile.

Okay then, let’s get two things out of the way first: 1. Did you or did you not advise your friend to pick up a drunk girl in order to get laid? B. Do you know where the shift button is on your keyboard? And fourthly, do you smell like turnips?

Ah, I wouldn’t worry, LOUNE. For one thing it’s an MPSPit, and beyond that, I’m pretty sure he’s just joking around with your concept. Can’t speak for Stranger but I just can’t see the OP being intended as a knock on you personally.

oh, i’m not taking it personally at all. i’d just like to clear up confusion.

four things is more than two, but still less than three, but they’ll get answered.
no, i did not advise anyone to go bag a drunk girl just to get laid. actually, if you read my original thread, it might have been the second reply i posted, but the goal wasn’t necessarily to get this kid laid, despite what the original title was. i came up with that title to incite some sort of talk and keep it open for some sex talk, although i didn’t know it’d get that skeevy. posts 8 and 9 on the original thread should help you out.

yes, i most certainly know where the shift button is on my keyboard. i’m an english major, and grammar is one of my strong points. when i type responses on the message board, my fingers delete the shift key from their muscle memory. (by the way, if anyone wants to sit me down and go through this entire “coding” nonsense, i’ll happily stop double and triple posting)

and turnips, no. i shower about twice a day.
…more like “rudabagas”. perhaps “fetid limberger” might be more apt during the summer.

Come again? You know, a lot of us managed to obtain English degrees without this horrible affliction striking our muscular systems. Or perhaps you didn’t mean to imply that there’s a causal relationship…if so, you probably shouldn’t brag about grammar skills in that case.

Dear LL,

Your problem is that you’re putting the pussy up on a pedastal. What you have to do is go through a bunch of hood rats to get your confidence up.

no, it’s definitely not a causal relationship.

i talk good…'nuff said.

As an English major, I would hope that you realize how important communication is, and how you are impairing your ability to communicate in this medium by neglecting one of its guidelines.

Dear Abby,

I’m 19 years old and still a virgin. I’m not to worried about it, but my neighbor keeps nagging at me to “get laid”… How do I convince my neighbor to let me be?

Dear LL,

Fuck somebody.

If you’re not going to bother shifting, why bother with the punctuation? Why bother using English words? Why not just sit at your keyboard and flail away, if you aren’t interested in having other people understand what you are trying to communicate?
