It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Go, Jen! Smoochies are good.

I'm glad to hear vw is resting, Emily. It's probably the best thing for her at this point. Give her my love, please?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Awww. That's sweet Jen! It's awesome when people connect like that, no matter how they meet.

Also, personal ads- when they actually match the person- are kinda cool. People just putting themselves out there like that. It's not like going out and meeting people where you can be whoever each night. What you wrote in that ad is just there for whoever to see.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

YAY JEN!

It may snow on Wednesday. I love laughing at the Californians who keep staring at the sky and saying, "But it's nearly May!"

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you

Yeah, that's what I like about OKCupid. They ask you a whole bunch of questions about potential deal-breakers (politics, religion, wanting children, etc.) and you can specify that your search only include people who feel similarly about issues that are most important to you. That way you know you aren't going to end up on a date with Person Who Holds Noxious-To-You Political Belief X.

There's a danger to specifying too much lest you end up with a boring carbon copy, but if there's things you just can't abide, you don't have to deal with them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Great news, Jen. That's very exciting!

Heh. I almost put something in my original post saying, "Don't worry, David, I'm being cautious and not giving up my heart too easily."

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Jen!!!

Emily, thanks for the vw update. Give her lots of hugs for us.

Always Anti-fascist!

Hope vw feels good soon. Hec, does it ever get tiring, shepherding Bitch foibles? Some of them are much more fun than others. Jen, good for you.
