In today's edition of "Get Scola a Life", do I want to go to this or this tonight?
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

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

Um... OK then.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'd go to the second, Tom.
Ah, zeitgeist: OK Cupid makes the case for men to date older women, with data.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I vote the second. Although they both sound cool.

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
Most of the messages I get on OK Cupid are from twentysomethings. And I say, "you know I'm a fat old lady, right?"
Heh.

You need to turn your irony-o-meter way, way up when you read that, tommyrot.

See, if I went to that I'd be afraid there'd be audience participation, and they'd make me hold a monkey.
DO NOT WANT.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That OK Cupid blog is nothing like my experience. Which was not win. But I was mostly instant-messaged, like Allyson, by young guys--guys 15 years younger than me, it seemed. Few of the guys that sent me email-type messages were older than me. But perhaps I'm just old for the site.
