Haha, well consider this your tryout. I'm still on the fence after ASW. You did call me a "7."


I'm surprised you remembered that. It must have done exactly what it was intended to do... Make you feel attractive, but just a little bit, so you still need to get my approval. And we all know the preferred method of that...

You can't beat me at my own game, Chris. Haha.

This, though replace bourbon with gin. I'm super competitive so my favorite bar (life?) activities involves drinking+pool/darts/etc. Anyone here play poker? I've been wanting to get a game going forever (my girlfriends are not too fond of cards.)



Bleck, gin is NOT delicious. I can drink it on occasion, but would never choose it over anything else.

At this point, you were dead to me. Until...

We should definitely get a poker game started. Finding girls that like to play poker is a hard thing to do, but they always make the game more enjoyable (if they don't suck.) I'll host at my house, since I have the space for a big game.

Yes! Let's do this, and if you're cool having it at your place, all the better. My apartment is small and has noise restrictions (which is problematic since I tend to get very loud when I win..and I win a lot.)

When do you move down, by the way? I think I remember you saying July-ish?

We'll see who wins this one... We have three years together my friend, and you only have the "Chris has a gf" protection card for (what I'm sure will be) a little bit longer. I'm not historically good at making distance relationships last.

We can definitely have this (and many other evenings of debauchery) at my place. I close on my house July 15th, so I'll be up there as much as my (currently non-existent) job schedule for the summer allows from that point forward!

Excellent. Well, we'll have to make sure that month before law school if filled with epics amount of debauchery...Let's see just how many brain cells we can kill! We don't want to make this curve too difficult for everybody else...ha.

Well, on that note, I'm off to get a head start on the braincell-icide. Margaritas!

Happy Cinco de Mayo, folks! Adios.

Now now... Let's not out ourselves as cocky assholes THIS early.

Have fun! I'm off to a Cinco de Mayo block party soon as well.

Anyone else doing anything fun for the number 4 drinking holiday?

So the GF isn't moving back to Iowa? I thought she was?

[chrisbru]

So the GF isn't moving back to Iowa? I thought she was?

Iowa, yes, temporarily. But not Iowa City. She didn't get into school, so she needs to find a degree-related job... And IC probably isn't the easiest place for that. She'll be in Des Moines, Minneapolis, or Chicago, hopefully.

This video is hilarious. Anti-gunner theme set to Cee Lo Green.

Denied today via status checker. Gonna miss Iowa City in the fall - good luck to all of the Hawkeyes.

Edit: It appears that they're now working through the waitlist, for those of you still awaiting a response.

Indeed. This cycle has been quite the ride and has ended better than I had feared though not quite as well as I had hoped.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that. Well, in that case I guess you better settle for Sam. I feel sorry that you'll have to take such a large step down in female companion.

[JOThompson]

If anyone would like a free set of the orientation books/supplements (current?), I should be back in IC by the middle of August.

This made me

However, it will probably make Sam

Well, I am a "7"...so if you're gf is a 8,9, or 10, then this is a step down indeed, Chris. Very disappointing. I expected more from you.

You know I don't date lower than 8s...

[smiller1]

You know I don't date lower than 8s...

Neither do I. I guess we're both out of our own leagues.

This was not a well thought out statement... It doesn't quite convey the point you are trying to make.

However, I readily admitted that I'm probably more of a 6. It's my charm and wit that make up for it.

On the contrary. The point I was making was a backhanded way of saying you're not an 8 either...that we couldn't date each other because neither of us are in the other's league.

...man, I sure sound like a bitch reading that back. You're a 10 to me Chris, haha. There. Fixed.

Hm... I guess I interpret "out of my league" as meaning above what we can get. I guess it makes sense, I just would have prefered:

"Neither do I. I guess neither of us would settle for ourselves."

ETA:

Don't get sappy on me, Sam. We can express ourselves through sarcasm without hurting the others feelings. Unlike you, I don't need validation

But, just to make sure everyone knows I'm not a bitch either, you're a 10 to me too. Well, a 9, at least.

[smiller1]

I concede. That sounds better (my soul is crying). But if we're playing this game, then do I get to go through the last 46 pages of TLS posts and rewrite every instance where something could have been put better?

Oh good, this verifies that we got to know each other well enough in March that you realize I just jest. I was only slightly concerned.

Unlike you, I don't need validation

Oh, well I don't NEED validation. I just constantly recieve it (a consequence of awesomeness.)

Yes, please do. That would make for very interesting reading.

Get OVER yourself, nerd.

[smiller1]

Hate, hate, hate. Why so cranky?
