Hey, look, I was just curious. A. because I’m not getting any, B. because someone’s GOTTA be getting some, and C. because damnit, I wanna hear about it! You think being 1. single, 2. young and thus stereotypically immature, and 3. in a computer lab instead of a bar is/are easy? Now, I know there are those on here who have been alive twice as long as I and have no sex to show for it. I pity y’all, really. Or not, depending. Now, let’s get someone in here who HAS danced dirty and get them good and drunk, so as to . . . no, not that! I just wanna HEAR about it, damnit! ---

Nobody’s getting laid here. Because none of us are who we say we are. For example, Coldfire is really a sorghum farmer in Valdosta, Georgia. ChiefScott is actually a spinster librarian in Moose Jaw, Alberta. Shayna is a Secret Service agent and part time stripper. Milo is a serial killer. Cecil Adams is a homemaker and grandmother of 5. UncleBeer’s a Mod, so he dresses in 60’s clothes and affects a British accent. And I’m a precocious 6 year old who has hacked my Dad’s password. Who wants to play cars?! ---

WallyM7 said: “Nobody’s getting laid here.” Well, of course if you’re going to be on the computer you won’t be getting laid. Unless you’ve discovered the way to get laid and post to the SDMB (again, perilously close to saying SMBD) at the same time. In which case, you have an obligation to tell EVERYONE here. Esp. Billy, as he’s giving it up (the chance, not the cherry [ed. note: he don’t HAVE a cherry to give up]) to give it to us (the post, not the cherry [see prev. ed. note]). Handy: the point of this question is that it’s supposed to be humorous. I’m not actually expecting to get people in here giving us lurid descriptions of The Act . . . well, actually I was hoping for it, but not exactly expecting a blow-by-blow account (PI). techchick: Happy hunting (or humping) in Vegas. I won’t be there, but there will be at least one straight un-attached guy there, so there you are. Your first \*\*\*\*. Do tell after it’s done. Keep a diary. ---

Nobody’s getting laid because nobody can rip themselves from the clutches of their keyboard as they pound out post after post after post. Sometimes there’s not anything to post to/about, and the dopers just stare blankly at the screen, waiting for somebody, anybody, to post SOMETHING, into the wee hours of the night. Or is that just me? ---

They tell me that I, too, stare blankly into space with no awareness of my surroundi Huh? What’s that you say? Oh, well yeah – I guess it could be the drugs… Getting laid is one thing, but are dopers allowed to reproduce? With _each other_??? SouthernStyle ---

From [http://www.dictionary.com](http://www.dictionary.com) gen·tle·man (jntl-mn) n. 1. A man of gentle or noble birth or superior social position: “He’s too much a gentleman to be a scholar” (Aphra Behn). 2. A well-mannered and considerate man with high standards of proper behavior. See Usage Note at lady. 3. A man of independent means who does not need to have a wage-paying job. 4. A man: Do you know this gentleman? 5. gentlemen. Used as a form of address for a group of men. 6. A manservant; a valet. Well any man can use #4. And I guess the Dark Lord is a superior social position. Shucks, foiled again. ---

ChiefScott is actually a spinster librarian in Moose Jaw, Alberta, wondering why **Wally** hasn’t returned _Our Bodies, Ourselves_ for six and a half weeks. The fine keep growin’, buddy. ---

Pepper: I do stare blanky into the screen (among other places) frequently. That’s why I look so glazed over at any given point in the day. And no, it’s not because of drugs. Or sex. I just get bored. Dopers are allowed to reproduce. And, SFAIK, none of us has yet been eligible for a Darwin award, though WallyM7 has made some hampsters or whatever the hell they were eligible. How is it that the same name can be taken by two posters? funky html code, or is it just that it can be done? IOW, could I go and make another “Uncle Beer” character? Not that I want to . . . I’m having enough of a time being one person. Two would drive me batty. ---
