Yeah, they're lovely. In my Ongoing "X is the new Y" campaign, I declare the Magic Numbers to be the new Belle and Sebastian

I'm not sure of anything. I'm many thousands of miles away from where you are (and farnkly, it sounds like that's the safest place to be), but it's dark. I'm frightened. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die.

Uh-huh. And then he hypnotized you again and you thought you were waking up, and it was all just a dream Check yr neck NOW!

Nah... this one'll go forever. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at?

Which is your problem, right there. If you would at least pretend to be reluctant, maybe they wouldn't keep bailing on your dream. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

The Hell with Jeeves... his assorted parts in Blackadder I-IV would be even more of a shock if you've only seen House -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I still get PMs about mine. But only from people who get it, so I guess it's OK... the sad part is, it was my .Sig line before DZ.com -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I think the specifier of StealGadgets is dropping the ball on return values. You should be able to call mygadget_count += StealGadgets(skydiving_dutch, gadget_count); (Unless this isn't Java or Python or some other everything-is-a-reference language, and you need to call StealGadgets(&skydiving_dutch, gadget_count), because you don't really want to copy a whole skydiver into your stack frame [edit: and if you did, you'd only be stealing copies of his stuff - the original skydiving_dutch would still have the same amount of stuff as you.) -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

Stylish! -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at?

Ja. Sweden vs Switzerland the other day while we were all in the pub... every guy in the place suddenly got a new appreciation for winter shuffleboard, and was glued to the screen. *sigh* -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

Dude! Don't do that! At least, don't tell people you do it. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at?

Or do I want you for your want of bacon? Oh hey, it just started raining. Today isn't a total loss then. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at?

Respect. I think cured pork products are the only sane response to today. Actually, with what you said about the cheeseburger and stuff afterwards... uh, I think I love you. Or maybe I just love bacon. Hmm, I love something. Valentine's Day strike again! [edit: "bacon was my chocolate"? Why don't you live in my town?] -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

/me sets tulips on fire... cheers up immediately. Go gloat with the other happy Hallmarkers, Honu! (Hey, how hellishly h-sounding.) -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I'm sorry, losing her what now? -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at?

No, it's not just you. Even for February 14th, that was one for the record books. Hey, at least we now get 364 Valentine's-free more days now... -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I just tried making one with Ardbeg. It's really helping with the whole girlfriend-moving-out-two-days-before-Valentine's-day thing. Not that we were that into Hallmark holidays, but all the happy couple romance in the office was driving me up the wall today. Anyway, back to the drink. I think someone just started projecting pretty colours into the periphery of my visual field, and my tongue has gone numb... it's that good.

Haha, yeah. One of my mates from the old rave scene saw my shiny new RW suit and said, "Dude, hotness! You have to wear that out to a warehouse." -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

Only marginally on-topic, but: I would hire the A-Team And I'd crash the General Lee I'd make cocktails like Tom Cruise And I'd rollerblade with Corey Feldman for you So there. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I can't beat that for total travel time (though one time when I got trapped in LAX for 14 hours mid-journey I came close). But on Friday I will get on a plane from London to Melbourne for a wedding... 24.5 hours total flight time. Arse! -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

I think you've answered it yourself with the "I'm pretty young" part of your post. After a while it will go away, and it will stop making everything Just Work, and it will eventually stop happening with new people. Treasure it while you still got it

Good stories! I think my girlfriend and I should go out to one of these and pretend not to know each other, just for kicks. Speed Dating seems like an awesome source of humorous anecdotes, if nothing else. That and she can circle "no" next to my name just to annoy me. Or maybe not... Also: consider learning to smoke, even if you don't intend taking it up. It will widen your target audience. More also: Tucker Max Tries 3-minute dating, hilarity ensues. Probably not what you're looking for, but pretty funny - the guy probably has the ideal approach to the exercise -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

Ya know what? I think there aren't really good kissers and bad kissers. Just pairs of people who kiss well. Since I only kiss people more than once if the two of us fit into that bracket... I choose "Hell yeah". Mmm. Kissing. Lips really are all that. -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

We have a winner. But yeah, only the Brits (who still watch old Neighbours episodes) and Aussies of a certain age (who remember the eighties) will really find it hysterical. Everyone else will just go, "ha, cool name!" -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .
