Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

If a guy friend offered to help me paint my apartment or something like that, it would never occur to me to interpret it as him wanting to date me.
This. For fuck's sake, this. In general, the action women are most likely to interpret as wanting to date them is asking them if they want to go on a date.
The problem is all the buffistas are trying to sell their houses, not buy!! We need more house hungry b.orgers!
Me, too.
RIGHT! I knew I missed an obvious one. Man, I wish I could have hooked you up with my friend Joey who is just buying a place in Austin. I think your place is probably a bit out of his league though.
people will understand and respond in kind if I am respectful and clear.
That's like an Internet comment thread in reverse.
HECK NO IT'S NOT!!
Excellent! I will go do that before I forget again.
THANK YOU, PERKINS!!
Also, guys who are really obvious about "I'm trying to be your friend because I really want to date you" are just creepy. Dude. Ask me out, or don't. But doing something nice for me and then getting pissy because I didn't reciprocate in the way you wanted, which I never agreed to do, isn't being a "nice guy," it's being a manipulative brat.
So we have to wait 20 years just to send humans to orbit Mars? Bah.
On Countdown last night, Derek Pitts pointed out that NASA ditched the Saturn V rocket after the Apollo mission completed, which would have been a great stepping off point for further developments on long-distance rockets for asteroid and Mars launches. So, I guess now they're having to start from scratch on the next generation of long-distance mission rockets.
