How to meet the girl of your dreams

[StarPhoenix]

I think that you are either gifted or not. No amount of extra homework made me any more adept at factorising equations.
I...don't think that punctuation had anything to do with it.

[Tribble]

Punctuation has everything to do with it

Difference between: "Shall we eat, Grandpa?" and "Shall we eat Grandpa?"

And no - I got cleverer when I left school. Well not actually cleverer - things just started to make sense.

[StarPhoenix]

Dear, silly Kitty! What i mean is that punctuation had nothing to do with my misunderstanding.

[Tribble]

lol I still disagree. It may have had nothing to do with your confusion but everything to do with finally seeing what I meant.

[StarPhoenix]

Heehee...now you are just trying to use your feminin wiles to confuse a poor male...

[Tribble]

Can you blame me?

[StarPhoenix]

Can i blame you for what?
While i don't hold anybody's gender against them, i think that in using your 1337 5killz0rZ against easy targets you do yourself an injustice.

What do "normal" people talk about? As someone who is described as weird, where does one find common ground between one's self and these conventional people?

[D3PART3D]

They talk about boobs, beer and television because its a safe bet. Or… well, that's the most common strategy it seems.

[StarPhoenix]

Ladies talk about this too?

Well I'll pass on discussing the beer and mammaries.

Arts and crafts, and certain books, on the other hand, hold promise. And if a smart [and patient woman wanted to teach me science, I wouldn't run a mile.]

start by commenting something about the weather... always a good conversation starter...
unless you are at conference surrounded by meteorologists... then you are in for a looooooong discussion...

You make it sound like a bad thing.

So tell me, Kitten: what will the weather be like in Hogsback this weekend? ['cos that is where I'll be.]

[KatrynKat]

The closest I can get is Fort Beaufort...
Sat: 8/20°C (Cloudy)
Sun: 4/14°C (Partly cloudy)

this to me says that the cold front is passing through during saterday night...

Hope Birdie isn't freezing there.

Birdie - find someone weirder and then it should be easy to converse. Not that I am calling you weird - just find someone not normal.

Birdie ignited his flames.
While i was on the 39 steps trail, a lady acknowledged my presence as we passed each other on a bridge. Fortunately her partner did not consider me enough of a threat to squish me. I spotted her again in the bar/tv lounge area that evening.

[Tribble]

Wow - she did this in front of her mate. You should take that as a compliment.

[CapNemo]

Probably a typical woman trying to start a fight

[SykomantiS]

[Tribble]

Women don't start fights - we finish them

[CapNemo]

Oh contraire you just love to start fights why else would there be mythology like Helen of Troy

[Tribble]

Because men like strong women. Also they don't want to carry the title of warmonger alone

[StarPhoenix]

She-hulk ftw?

Paris was a numbskull for breaking up a marriage. Priam should have sent his recalcitrant son back to Menelaus in a small cage. And returned Helen in his best ship with pots of cash.
