The Big Relationship Thread

[the amativeness]

See, France has Sir Captain Picard but England has Sir Patrick Stewart, so I'm not sure how to judge.

Also, when the hell did this become a discussion of geography?

Patrick Stewart beats Picard any day, for without Stewart, there is no Picard.

and yet again the Midlands gets sadly neglected.

we have the goddamn Bull Ring people!

Also York is the only place worth visiting in the north, because of a certain special person who is attending York University (hint: not brad, although he certainly does help York's cause)

[WBAGNR]

'fish, for the whole of the Midlands, you choose the Bull Ring to represent us?

Not the fact we have more miles of canals than Venice, or the first Cadbury's chocolate factory, no. It's because we have a shopping centre with giant metal discs on it!

[iamafish]

the point kinda was that the midlands has very little of note...

[Gordon Fearman]

So are you in the Midlands or Australia or what?

[Lord Chrusher]

I believe iamafish is a native of the Midlands but he is doing his gap year in some small town in the middle of New South Wales.

[iamafish]

what Chrusher said

[TomBrend]

So... I have a girlfriend now. I'm pretty happy about this.

[WBAGNR]

Woooooooo! Well done TomBrend!

I'm still no-where to be seen on that scene.

[Gordon Fearman]

You're still closer than me, little buddy.

[iamafish]

i wouldn't be so sure about that

[Gordon Fearman]

Uhhhh...are you coming on to me?

And also coming out that you're secretly a chick?

At the same time?

For me?

I'm honoured.

[iamafish]

actually I was defending Mark's proximity to getting a girlfriend in relation to yours. I mean it's still bad...

[Gordon Fearman]

I don't get it. Were you saying that WBAGNR was further to having a girlfriend than me?

[TomBrend]

Yes, that was the implication, Gordon.

[Gordon Fearman]

But why would you make that implication and then call it a defence?

[iamafish]

he was being self detrimental. I was defending him from himself

[WBAGNR]

Still true though.

[iamafish]

no! Stop putting yourself down.

[Gordon Fearman]

Okay. So you were responding to him which is really confusing because you posted after me.

Right.

[Digital Dolphin]

It seems I have just asked a girl out to join me for an evening at a craft fair.

Hrm, I didn't expect that to happen when I woke up this morning!
I'll report back when I find out if she will join me or not (she's a very busy person, she's taking a ton of classes at school right now).

[The Jester]

I think I'm falling for someone who's very shy, but I don't want to try anything overt in case I destroy any chance that she might be interested back by scaring her off.

It's entiarly possible she's interested back, or is almost there, but 'cos she's so shy I can't tell.


[Edit] Awesome, DigitalDolphin! Let's hope things go well, if indeed that is what you desire.

[2stepz]

Congrats to Tom, Dolphin and Jester...

Myself: Still Single... but becoming increasingly okay with that fact. Graduation is ~8 months out, and I can survive until the next leg of this trip begins.

Turned three job offers and one interview offer down today. This led to me feeling wicked stressed. However, my girlfriend is awesome, and brought me pork buns. Then we watched Castle and played Rock Band.

Also, this past weekend I turned 22, and my girlfriend and one of our other friends went and got me a cake in the shape of a naked woman. It was generally hilarious, and also an awesome birthday.

Fix'd for you, man.
