[Harlequin]

God help me, I do. I'd move into one if I could.

The next poster's first reaction when the phone rings is annoyance.

[OneCentStamp]

True 95% of the time. The other 5% of the time I'm actively expecting a call from someone I actually want to talk to.




TNP likes playing golf.

[Rube E. Tewesday]

Nope, not interested one bit, and it has nothing to do with the girl who dumped me and married a damn golfer like two minutes after she told me she was never getting married, nothing at damn all....

Anyway, TNP won't go to movies alone.

[Sleeps w/Butterflies]

True. I can't help but think I'll feel odd doing it. I know it makes no sense.

[ivan astikov]

True - boxing and football. I was a bit better than average at both, but lacked the competitiveness to take it too seriously.

TNP has never stood a date up.

[Rabid Renaissance]

True. Even that one time when it was just a friendly lunch amongst vague internet acquaintances (we were both friends with the same person who lived elsewhere but knew we lived in the same city and thought we'd get along), even after I realized as I approached our designated meeting spot that I would be lunching not with a geeky gamer lesbian, but with a geeky gamer man-in-a-flowing-purple-hippy-dress-who-needed-to-shave-and-had-a-big-adam's-apple-who-was-actually-a-lesbian-born-into-a-man's-body...I kept the date.

Certainly not. I might be able to take someone's eye out with those long pointy things that I don't even know the name of.

The next poster has entertained serious thoughts of trying a self-sufficient lifestyle.

[Butterscotch]

I have! But couldn't afford not to work so wouldn't have time to do the work required to be successfully and trul self-sufficient. Got boooks about it and everything...

TNP always starts the day with a substantial breakfast.

[Rube E. Tewesday]

[Rube E. Tewesday]

False, she grosses me out. Plus all my family here knows her (she used to belong to their Buddhist temple) and they'd never forgive me.



TNP has a game on their cell phone that they play compulsively.

TNP has tried fitting 2 people on a hammock.

[Rube E. Tewesday]

Fantasized about it, never managed it.
