What can I say, Stoner -- hospital work at a young age, and being around nurses warps one....
"Fleet" as in fast, too.

Have you told Jim how you feel, Stones?
Rumour has it, he's into empty experiences with fleet enemas....

Hey, Hey, just ask them if they have any spare change, in that case.
Ask enough, and you'll have enough for some cheap Chinese cooking wine to drown your sorrows in!

That was a good one. I stil don't understand his problem, I strike up conversations with anyone, although I often do have better luck with girls after a few driinks, more courage and I can stand boring conversations.

i wholeheartedly disagree with almost everything said here, but heres my input:
Ever watch Bambi? Anyways, dont get twiterpated...which is getting infautuated basically. Love is a very mysterious thing, and it is used almost entirely to discuss sexual themes when this is entirely incorrect.
I am currently in love with many, many ideas and themes.
A woman entering my life as a "love" is a very distant and confusing idea to me. I have a brother, a sister, two parents and a pretty big family. I know my aunt and uncle don't love eachother, and my very own two parents are having crisis problems which they overshadow through other things.
I have never met a "happy" couple in my life, only two people that made a decision based on societal influence.
This happens all the time and it is happening right here, right now.
If you feel you have found "love" with another person, than that is great and i would love to study the situation and see how it unfolds. Im not saying its impossible, but to me its almost 100% unlikely to happen.
TRUE happiness is aquired through one self, and the interaction with others, not the MERGING with other which is what marraige will do to someone. I LOVE my brother and my sister, but if i ever tied it so close that everything i did was under surveilance or decisions i made were based on other terms....i would not be happy.
Just putting my input in

Very, very wrong in the case of this particular woman. I do enjoy my own company very, very much (to the extent that I always travel on my own), and I'd rather be alone than in the company of people I dislike. But, of course, I'm an adult, and a very independent one at that, and very picky when it comes to people.
|
But are you as picky when it comes to noses?
Every roamin' Roman knows!

All people of the female sex seem to avoid me for some reason or another, but I'm just trying to learn to ignore any feelings I have for anyone...and that's my opinion for now

Oh I know that Raffaella and Debby, but I was referring to other girls who I know from where I live. I think it's where I live, it's dull and boring.
