If a guy flusters me, I can't look him in the eye for fear of turning beat red and him reading my lascivious thoughts.
Particularly if he's a married guy, then you feel bad about it.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
It's irritating that it's so simple to see when it's not about you.
Yes, this. I can totally tell when someone is into one of my friends. Me? Not so much.
Funninest instance of this was about a year ago when I was out with my brother as well as some friends. A girl who knew one of my friends ended up sitting down at our table and was shamelessly hitting on my brother. At one point, my brother mentions only recently (at the time) turning 21 and the girl was mortified. "Oh my God, I thought you were way older than that." She talked to us a little more and left. Afterwards, I mentioned it to my brother and he was "Wait? So that's why she was so surprised at my age?" He said he'd momentarily considered she was hitting on him, but decided he was just imagining it, while for me it had been clear as day and the shock over him being so much younger than her was just a flashing neon sign on top of it.

YES. I give excellent relationship advice to other people. When it's my life, it's a freaking train wreck.

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?

Yep. A guy hit on me at the grocery store and I didn't notice. My MOTHER had to point it out to me.

Part of it is, I think of me as Not Someone To Hit On in some pivotal way. So if a guy looks at me intensely, I've got something in my teeth. If a woman gives me the eye, it's cause I've got stupid hair. I don't do that to other people so sometimes I notice.

I never know when someone's hitting on me. When I was single it always took getting to the grab-kiss-what? moment before the light bulb went off.
On the other hand, I'm great at pointing out to my clueless friends when someone's into them.

Depressingly, this is also me.
