If that's so, it still doesn't mean it wasn't you. It would only mean you were not conscious of making the decision yet. A consciousness time-lag, as it were.
Sounds more likely to me, and would avoid the cost of a tin-foil hat too.
There's a scene in the film Pulp Fiction in which John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson discuss Travolta's trip to France. In the course of describing a french McDonald's, Travolta observes, "It's the little things you notice."
Just so. When I first went to Europe I discovered the cigarette-vending machines had different prices for each brand. (Nowadays, of course, such machines are virtually extinct here in the USA anyway. But back then they were common, and prices were universal regardless of brand.) Now, nonsmokers will shrug and say, so what. But it made me think: Well, why not? Here's a different way of doing things, and it actually seems more fair and reasonable.
I knew before I arrived, too, that I could expect to see beer served in the McDonald's, as indeed it was. What I didn't expect to see in the McD's was a spoon-shaped coffee stirrer that had been "banned" in the US some years earlier because of its reputation as a convenient "coke" spoon. And that made me think too: are we, the US populace, sacrificing our own convenience because of some people's paranoia? People want to stir their coffee, and discontinuing this shape of coffee-stirring spoon ain't gonna have any effect on cocaine usage. Only a politician or a McDonald's legal representative would think otherwise.
Hey, relax, man. I kinda feel what you mean. Yeah it does make sense. Sometimes us guys get tired and worn down from all the expectations, and we just feel like throwing up our hands and saying Screw it then! You gals find me instead!
And hey, sometimes that works, too.
You gave no details about the "weird requests" you've heard, and I don't know what you think is "weird," so I can't help you there.
You mean 'coherent.' Best not chide others on their use of the english language unless yours is flawless.
I did so plan, at least twice. But illness and its attendant medical bills has impacted those plans. I'll still go visit my brother in San Diego, but may not get away otherwise.
Next: Have you moved often, or lived mostly in the same area?
Ooh that takes me back Moose. They're credited with creating the term 'psychedelia' from their album The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators. Great stuff too. Thanks!
Sleater-Kinney is another really cool band I love that never got much airplay:
Not sure what you mean by 'fired.' In US professional team sports, players are independent contractors who can't be 'fired.' Most often the stiffest penalty is ejection from the game, with the possibility of a fine imposed by the league later on. The team could of course void their contract, but they can do that anytime for any reason.
Unhappy fact is, it's almost never the guy who throws the first punch who gets penalized, ejected, or fined. It's the guy on the opposing team who responds.
Well, since I got banned from Tomcatwarne's ill-documented thread, "Feminism is Dead" (presumably, by Tomcatwarne), I just wanted to add that feminism is solid, and women rock!
Lukeon, plaudits, because this is the most intelligent, interesting, and relevant question I've seen in a long time.
Most everyone knows the wisdom, "you only get one chance to make a first impression." Here on CS, that means, name, pic, and everything else is part of a package.
Most folk signing up for CS -- remember, they know nothing about it, they are just now signing up -- go one of two ways: some version of their real name or email, or something fanciful and (they hope) attractive.
You can't fault JohnQUser or JaneSmith123 for their choice of names. But, they are signing up for a singles site, where they might hope to meet the match of their dreams. Did they display much imagination? Did they sound interesting?
On the other hand, you've got BigManWithBigPenis or SweetCuddlyKitten. Might sound enticing, but the devil's in the details. You're gonna have to check their profiles. BigMan might stand 5'4" and be married. CuddlyKitten might weigh 340 lb. and have 8 kids who live with her.
I think (I hope) the best names are the fanciful sort, but those that, while memorable, don't radiate details. I took mine from the coincidence of my favorite film (in Italian) and my former stage name.
