She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

So I need some advice. Theres this girl I work with that I am kinda in to. I work with her prety regularly awnd i sometimes get a vibe that she may be in to me despite her being a bit taller than me. How would yall approach anything with a coworker assuming you would.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Fay! Oh dear.

I once threw up on my crush object. It kinda ended my crush right there. Actually, now that my memory is chugging, I also flashed my crush object once--he wandered backstage while I was changing. This was in high school. Mor. Ti. Fied.

so subtly they would probably never notice I was into them.

I threw up on a bunch of people after a Presidents of the United States concert. good times.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm in NJ right now. Our neighbors had a party tonight. People have gone home now, and now the neighbor, completely drunk, is putting all the bottles in the recycling bin while singing "Free Fallin'." It's hysterical to listen to.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Hi there, Victor! I don't believe we've met?

I am arguably the last person in this or any other universe to hand out dating advice, but I say: Seize the day! Ask her out for a coffee! God, somebody out there needs to be having some of the dating luck I'm so markedly failing to experience right now.

'Til we dance away...

My husband and I met at work, so it does actually work out sometimes. My roommate was friends with him and invited him to my birthday party, and the rest is history. Not exactly, since he had a girlfriend at the time, but that's not the point of my story. If you have a mutual friend who could get you in the same place that's not work it would be a good start.

Count me in also among those who had a great puking on a first date experience. It was my college boyfriend and we stayed together over 2 years. I have not touched vodka and Red Bull since, however.

ugh, how many times do you let someone make the same mistake? Last time this happened Help Desk was very cross with us and it took them hours to fix. Tonight they can't even fix it, they have to call the company that makes the software in the morning. It's the second time we've done this and it was the same person both times. Is it wrong for me to tell her she can't touch the computer anymore?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Victor, I'm seconding Fay's "ask her out for coffee". Alternatively, if you get lunch breaks at the same time, ask her if she wants to grab some lunch. The advantage of these is, if she is completely uninterested, it's not hard to turn down without causing your ego to crash and burn. And you can always play it off as a friendly invitation to avoid awkwardness.
