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.

On the flipside of that, girl I pined for in highschool that I ended up having a relationship with much later, was like-wise oblivious at the time. When we finally got together years later, we were talking about our highschool days and I confessed to my crush on her back then and she was taken aback. She then went and asked everyone that had known us both back then that she was still in contact with and they all said "Yeah, I knew that. How did you not know?" Including her mother. Which we both found kind of funny.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What's the difference between flirting and hitting on?

Also, has this been answered this before?

Because, um, I'm leaving, I'm so very, very tempted to tell one of our AEs that I am not a graphic designer, and her requests are inappropriate.

I think I even can phrase this diplomatically.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I feel validated in the knowledge that, not only do I never know when somebody is hitting on me, I never know when somebody is hitting on anybody else.

Equal cluelessness for everybody!

I need big poster-cards with capital-letters and pointy arrows on them, and possibly a cheering section (face-painting, costumes, and pregame tailgating optional).

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?

Thinking you're Neuter Girl, not so FG.

No. Really not.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

What's the difference between flirting and hitting on?

IMO, a sexual harassment lawsuit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What's the difference between flirting and hitting on?

I flirt, but I never hit on. Flirting is the playful badinage that acknowledges sexual possibility. Doesn't have to have a whit of intent. I flirt with guys at the krav centre all the time. Hitting on means you actually want to do something about that, and ita don't play that. Well, hasn't. I don't think.

I do, in general, consider myself quite Neuter Girl. I don't even get flirted with much, much less hit on by people who aren't random strangers.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Dooooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiit.

What's the difference between flirting and hitting on?

For me - and this is Only Me - flirting is not always with intent. I can comfortably flirt with a wide range of people, and it's rarely serious. Hitting on is much like (verbalizing) ita's "You. Let's." with a "Now" often added in.
