So what's the formula for determining at some point if you + person = cougar hunting?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Deena and mieskye had the same ISP, if I recall, which added to the confusion.
I'll never get tired of Gus talk until I work up the energy to drive up and knock on the door of his trailer and ask him if it was all worth it.

Yep. Roadrunner!

He now has internet fame and an XKCD out of it, so I'm going to assume the answer'd be probably.
We, on the otherhand, have the MORAL HIGH GROUND.
MORAL, d'ya hear me?

Am I the only one who finds "cougar" to be a real turn off as a term? It's the predatory part of it I hate. Specifically, hunting for prey. I don't like the implication of "prey" to be anywhere near the implication of sex.
ETA: But now that I am 40, I am feeling sensitive about shit like this.
I'm no cougar; I've never, ever, dated anyone younger. Closest to my age I've come is 5 years older, in fact.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Am I the only one who finds "cougar" to be a real turn off as a term?
No. Though I'm resigned to it.
Edit: Its existence, not any application to me. Which there isn't. I can't speak for Jesse.

I thought it referred to the tendency of those women to dress in leopard print.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I got to be in Entertainment Weekly without being a sock and committing pseudicide.
This means I am BETTER THAN YOU, FASTEDDIEGUS.

Woot! Two 22-inch monitors are coming to my desk! More room for movies on Sundays when things are slow!
Oh, and Windows 7, which shouldn't be too bad, but I will miss XP.

Connie, Win 7 is awesome. I think you'll like the switch.

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

Which I read as fasted die Gus.
I think my biggest age gaps have been 12 years, in either direction. I could be a textbook cougar again. I got nothing against it. The word doesn't bother me--I understand that the strict application of the term is supposed to apply to hunters. But I'm more of a gatherer.
