CAN THEY SEE ME?
Yes, they can. I wouldn't eat those nachos.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Have you even tried Nerd Speed Dating yet?
I don't know anything about it. They have it here?
I just tweeted that the WiFi at the bar I'm at sucks, and they tweeted me back that they're working on it, while I'm still here! I am simultaneously appreciative of the customer service, and feeling exposed, though the place is packed. CAN THEY SEE ME?
Ha!

My boss just brought me pie.
I need your boss.
Although after spending the last half hour trying to identify a doctor in my area that takes my insurance plan, I think I'd settle for a neti pot.

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
Maybe don't use an online service like OKNeanderthal?
Have you met Match.com? It's so much worse AND they charge you for it.

Scola did it in New York. Surely we have enough nerds out here to do such a thing. If not, you should organize it. Preferably at Borderlands or 826 with an added spelling contest.
Simply by virtue of you being straight, solvent, employed, hygenic and capable of grasping heliocentric theory gives you a leg up in the Bay Area where straight, employed young men are in shorter supply.

Have you met Match.com?
Nope. I found my wife the old fashioned way: going to a Buffy season finale party.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Thanks, Hil! That's awesome! She is very interested in Judaism because her BFF is Jewish and I want her to have good info.

ARGH. My head is explodey and I blame bureaucracy and Grace.
EVERYTHING to do with Grace works 2/3rds of the way. Like I need her to have a swallow study, so it gets approved, but they won't do it without OT which won't be approved. Or, she gets approved to receive government diapers, but we can't get them because Anthem won't write me a letter saying they won't cover them so Medi-Cal has to and the fucking DME provider will NOT just bill my insurance and get a denial. Or, she gets her placement at a new school and it's mornings which is the only way it will work for Grace, but they just today submitted a transportation request so she won't have transportation at all the first week of her school (and mine).
I am fucking tired of dealing with the hoops to get the other third to fall in line.

Allyson, I think LA is just a particularly grim place to date.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Of course, I should probably leave the house more often and meet people.
This is the same problem I have.
