    I don’t really understand it all as I have the IT skills of a small Tibetan hill tribe, but if this really is the shape of things to come I can only remain unimpressed. In my eyes dating is all about meeting the weird, the wonderfull, the unobtainable and the down right unsuitable. Nothing brightens my evenings more than sharing a meal with a beautiful lady and then suddenly finding she has the social etiquette of a barnyard animal. Messy eaters are fun too. There’s nothing more enjoyable than watching someone manage the impossible by getting ketchup in their hair! I always find that asking them if they would like fries with that, always works as an icebreaker. But if unlike myself you lack the ability to expect the unexpected. This validator is for you. ;)

    Speaking of dates……..Never cross that thin white line.

    A friend of mine one went on a date with a beautiful blonde woman he had been chasing for ages. Much to my suprise she actually turned up, which was nice.
    He explained that she was wearing a tight black top and hot pants but as she went to the bar,, he couldn’t help but notice an annoying white thread hanging from the leg of the hot pants.
    That was it and before he knew it the gentleman inside had taken over…..
    As she was at the bar he walked up behind her and grabbed the offending thread and gave it a hefty tug in order to remove it from sight and save the poor girl the unwanted embarassment.

    Imagine his surprise when she let out a scream and fell onto the floor in agony!

    It turned out that the white thread was connected to her Tampax……and he never saw her again. ;)

    The Power Of Positive Thinkin Rev, I Sure Hope Your Right

    It’s okay Paul I have it all under control. The Portuguese government wouldn’t dare to
    oppose my will.

    Not if they value their souls I mean………

    :evil:

    Valid schmalid, all that is necessary is to do a couple of browsing tests,
    look at some jewellery just for fun, see how she looks in standards compliant lingerie and
    BANG, you’re validating a little more than just some ML. With some luck, you might
    be able to link to her ARSS

     
  19. ReV.JeLLyBaBY, 23, June 2004, 10:00 |  

    Sorry Rust,

    But when do you introduce her to your hard drive?

     
  20. rust, 23, June 2004, 10:03 |  

    Is it me, or is this comment box just a little too freaky… uh hey D00D, where’s my TEXT gone. How can anyone possibly write anything … oh look, there it is. Man, I hate technology. When the aliens land finally and see our civilization in ruins, they’ll do their analysis and come to the conclusion that we all succumbed to radiation poisoning due to the fact that all our software had CD ROT and no-one had a diskette that would format…

     
  21. Esther, 23, June 2004, 12:47 |  

    What a strange mix of techie, tampon and soccer (er, football) talk.

    Oh, and b>rust, the aliens will be too busy at the Krispy Kremes to do any analysis of our civilization.

    But will it let you know whether your date will degrade gracefully?

     
  24. rust, 23, June 2004, 15:53 |  

    My dates have degraded me quite successfully, I assure you.
