The chances of me coming _on_ Mars are even worse. But here on Earth, 100 percent, barring any sudden demise, knock on wood.

This seems like a binary poll. I am on the positive side.

Fuck if I know; 23 year old male virgin here.

The people who say it’s impossible to get through college without finding willing sex partners are lying.

67 here, smoker but otherwise in good health, no health issues. I didn’t have sex yesterday, not sure about tonight but if I miss tonight tomorrow will be certain. My doctor says I have a 1 in 5 chance in having a heart attack before I am 77.

Moi aussi.

Like, my wife could be banging a dude who doesn’t say “Moi aussi.”

In college alcohol usually plays a part in the process.

It’s probably 95 percent likely I’ll have sex tomorrow. Engaged, and we have a very healthy sex life.

Before my death? The odds are pretty high, I hope.

Is ‘doing tons’ a weightlifting activity or something? Whatever it is, with enough practice, I’m sure you can also get better at it.

Not sure if you were serious, but maybe you should start a new thread. I’m interested.

Nil. Unless I get put in a nursing home with dementia, and then all bets are off. Cynical - who, me?
