Just wanted to throw in some encouragement for this thread!

I personally know one couple here in FL that recently married after meeting in the verse. Know another couple out in TX who've been living in sin for several years after meeting in the verse.

I met my SO on line. At first I thought I had got a Mal/Jayne type but turns out he's more of a Mal/Simon type (Simon's mind with Mal's fashion sense - but still has Jayne's enthusiasm for weaponry.) He liked Firefly/Serenity but doesn't do the fan thing.

Anyway, good luck to y'all.

SWM, 28 years old from Central Florida. Wash personality with a little Mal mixed in. We're all special in our own way, but I tend to be special in the head... lol. I'm looking for a River/Kaylee mix. A beautiful mind and fun personality. A hot woman wouldn't hurt either, but I like to be able to carry on a conversation when I have something to say. Must be a Firefly fan and a total geek. Glasses are sexy and big eyes are a must.

And here I was trying not to limit myself... lol.

Stay Shiny...

"So little Albatross, you gonna sit shotgun, help me fly?"

All the single men are down south and the single women are up north, what's up with that?

Penguinlord, I'm a little old for you, but if I was about 20 degrees latitude further south I'd take you out for a beer anyway! I got the big eyes and the geeky Riverness. I'm not totally hot, but I ain't bad neither!

Ha - who's afraid of a little cradle robbing? Especially since the only man my age who's posted is our oversexed friend bitterbierce? (No offence BB, but I gotta insist on 50/50, in bed and out!)

SWM (Single White MAL), 23, looking for woman with Rivers kookiness and Kaylee's zest for life. I live in South Wales, I'm a student, and I'm a writer. I love rock music and Firefly. Favourite FF quote is: "I'll be in my bunk". But who'll be in there with me?

Hehe I'm a female in Sarasota, FL.

I'm a 23 yr old Zoe type, but I'm more Kaylee...I'd also be Riverisque if it wasn't for my Wash-like ways (I'd say Xander from Buffy but I think that would go off topic).

Surprisingly I do wear glasses (glasses are fuaing awesome) and have big eyes (judging from what others say about me).

I love the Joss as everyone might now, but I also love the Radiohead, the H.I.M., Kevin Smith, and little obscure cheesy or stuff too. That's just the tip of the ice berg folks b/c there's loads of stuff I like to the point it's sickening.

I'm currently majoring in Illustration.

I also think I'm a bit late seeing as how it's the 17th

Alright, I'll give it a go.

Single white female, 19, from the Toledo, Ohio area. Currently a college student, secretary, and aspiring teacher. Digs reading,hard rock, movies, firefly and various other fandoms, laughing whole lots, and fun in general. Vaguely Kaylee-ish in looks and behavior, but only vaguely. Useless with any thing that has wires, cords, batteries, or runs any way but with a big green button that says, 'GO.' Intelligent in other, more useless areas like history, lit, philosophy, semi-coherent conversation. Good with people up to and not exceeding the age of twelve. Open-minded vegatarian with other hippie tendencies. Writes way too much most of the time.

Looking for anyone in the area really, though I prefer geeky types with good senses of humor and far-flung interests. I don't care much about the physical aspect, but I must admit skinny long-haired boys turn my head faster than most others.

Not all at once, fellas.

There are so few terribly clever ads, D, that I sometimes forget they even exist! Now I love football commercials. Those "It must be football season" ones? Bwahahah!

Like the poor guy in the movie line who drops his keys and bends over to pick them up? The lady behind him drops her purse, thrusts her hands between his legs from behind, and starts howling, "Hut-hut...HUUUUUUUT!"

*cracks up* The look on that poor guy's face is PRICELESS!

Aw that's ok sweetie, it's a special fun breaking in girlies with initially mistaken apprehensions that they run things, or even have a say in them. There are no women so happy and tamed as ones who began needing taming. Call me Petruchio.

Please, let's do this in an orderly fashion, people- feminist lynchers to the right, outraged SNAG slapfighters line up on the left, and we have an area for "scared" people to mill about making clucking noises in the hall. If you would please sign the guestbook on the way in.

Ha! There's the BB we all know and love!

So, where's the laughing, head-shaking, "Can I start gettin sexed already?" line? And...why does it seem to be so much shorter?

And D? Yeah, the monster commercials usually are pretty amusing. However, I already feel like I work in an office full of chimps, so...not so much.

Their initial "I wanna be a yes-man!" commercial slayed me, though! Bwahah!

Well Bitter, Can I call you Bitter?

I must say you really don't know me. While I frequently decrie that the republican party is much better at stealing elections than the democrats of late (an area in which the dems used to have quite an edge) I don't make a habit of criticising other peoples personal lives. While I perhaps don't approach relationships in the same way you do as long as nobody is being coerced (and I see no evidence of coercion here) I got no problems. In the future you may wish to avoid ascribing motives to other people based on your personal biases.

And just so you know, I don't particularly like being called Davey. I'm cool with Dave or David or in more formal situations Mr. Shayne otherwise I would apreciate you not calling me anything at all.

"Personal lives"? Lord Jesus as a mutual fund, spare us from the ironically deficient. They were jokes, Davey...er, Jean Luc Goddard. Come on, just lighten up.

"While I perhaps don't approach relationships in the same way you do as long as nobody is being coerced (and I see no evidence of coercion here) I got no problems."

That is so nice of you that you "see no evidence of coercion" in a POSTING THREAD. Would I threaten with particularly menacing kilobytes? And what is it with this "I don't make a habit of criticising other peoples personal lives/got no problems" stuff? Now, if I was the non-genteel sort, I would call you friggin' hypocrite and demand you show me where I actually "criticized your personal life", which is apparently a whole new level of hidden meaning in my posts that only the great Jean Luc Goddard can actually discern. But I am a genteel sort, so I have to ask instead: puppies or kittens? Me, I prefer kittens. They're so cute. We had two when I was with my great love: Pooter and SS GrupenFuhrer Steiner.

You mistook my meaning. I was taking issue with you expecting me to criticize your behavior based on an unflatering assumption regarding my character; the contents of which you obviously have no actual knowledge.

Now since this conversation is off topic for this thread I suggest that if you wish to continue this conversation you begin a seperate thread for that purpose. Bear in mind however that unless you are willing to adopt a minimal ammount of curtesy I am unlikely to join that conversation.

Dunno, you could be right. I haven't seen that movie in a coon's age, so the details may well have left me.

Heh, I'm just happy that it was close enough for someone to peg!

I will say that the first few weeks/months alone after a lengthy sexual relationship play havoc on the ol' hormones. When I left my fella of oh, five years, I had sort of a hard time adjusting to sexlessness.

I'm not built for this, it's cruel. It's like whipping a puppy for no reason- he's all happy and jumping about and then wham! cowering in a corner with sad confused eyes wondering why this is so cruel. I'm a puppy here. Why is someone kicking the puppy when I could be hitting the kitty? It's just not fair.

Pah, doesn't mean a goddamn thing. I'll never go this long without again, it just means extending what I used to get occasionally on the side into as many times a day as I can manage. You didn't think I'd only have one infidelity, do you?

But since you spent five years with him, he's probably analagous for you to the more than four year's I spent with a girl back in my early twenties and in love. So in that case, screw that effer and the horse he rode in on.

I was the faithful type once, you know. Although neither of us cheated, I learned from her fidelity is for the birds. Get laid all you can, and get laid some you can't, too. Despite your slutty talk it was immediately apparent to me you weren't the type. You really should go out and try it, it's fun. When you crawl into bed you should be assured of someone crawling in on top of you.

You know, as a related thought without any joking content at all, I have a thought about your situation. You’d better make your mind to get up and back in the game soon. In ten seconds you’ll be ten years older and ten years less attractive as a woman and facing loneliness a hugely different way than a young woman like you faces it. I almost withdrew, allllmost went your way when She Disaster happened. Something snapped and I just went wholly the other way, I don’t know what it was, it was like a choice between good and evil, so I chose to give it good. And it was a lot easier for me because I’m a man and for some unfair cosmic reason women will still fuck us as we get older. Inasmuch as I’m catholic in my tastes for women, I have a couple awesome women friends who pain me to watch now, and these are fantastic women who aren’t too much older than you are. You’re 29 as of a few days ago, so I give you about two years, three on the outside to get out of that funk before biology makes that permenant decision for you. If you look like Carmen Elektra, I give you six years at the outside, but not a day over. The only other woman on earth who had options past that was Sophia fucking Loren. I’m at the doubly painful stage of looking at women my age who have lost options while I haven’t. By the way? That’s the same time your need to fuck as a woman goes through the roof. It’s your body’s way of trying to get one more baby out of you for the species. What a cruel joke that you want to fuck in direct opposition to your ability to get it.

Oh fuck. When did the laughs turn off? I promise, I will never again write a serious sentence. Move along, nothing to see here!

You know, that’s the part many women seem to want. The One used to request that I just get on top, limb on limb. Since I easily outweighed her by 100 pounds and unlike her my limbs are HEAVY I wondered why, but it made her very happy. She wanted me to sleep on top of her, which slightly scared me. You know, it doesn’t sound it, but laying on top of a woman after sex is a good time to ask her to marry you. I think she (at 6’1”!) just liked that I was taller than she was and tall women especially like to feel small and feminine.

Quote:

“Amusingly enough, none of my friends can get me to admit that I miss sex, and here I don't know you from Adam. Funny ol' world, ain't it?”

That is funny. When a woman says she doesn’t miss sex to me, I laugh at her and call her a bad liar. It never takes sixty seconds to get her shamefacedly to admit it really is a lie. The only truly odd sex is no sex.

You know, you’re pretty smart and witty to talk to. You know, for a girl.

You ain't lyin'. As of this moment, I'm nowhere near lonely. I'm not that type. But I am undersexed, due to the peculiar mix of morality and practicality that makes up my sexual code, as it were. I've been thinking lately that I need to...stretch that code a bit before what you describe comes to pass.

No fair that my sex drive -- which was already pretty jumpin' for a woman, unless all other women are lying -- will kick in just as I'm getting old enough to truly stay single without anyone else bitching about it.

I really am a no-maintenance kind of girl. It weirds guys out because it's exactly what they think they want. Half of the reason I don't date -- the other half being that I'm entirely too independent for my own good -- is because I know I'm exactly NOT what any man in his right mind wants. I don't cling.

But for the first year and a half and the last year and a half, it creeps in.

My, we think well of ourselves, don't we? Would we like a mint julep with that ego? You know, I really didn't take any of the sex talk seriously, but I do suddenly have an urge to put you in your place.

Quote:

I really am a no-maintenance kind of girl. It weirds guys out because it's exactly what they think they want. Half of the reason I don't date -- the other half being that I'm entirely too independent for my own good -- is because I know I'm exactly NOT what any man in his right mind wants. I don't cling. I don't want anything -- except the sex, of course. I don't cry. I don't pander. Just can't do the Little Missus thing.

Yeah yeah yeah I heard it all before, toots. They say that, then ten weeks later its "why haven't you called, Jiiimmmyyy?" on the answer machine. Which, I do have to admit, is one of the more satisfying pleasures of my life. I LOVE upending women's little pretentions.

You want to know the truth? There is no person so indepenedent or strong or smart they can't be floored by the opposite sex out of NOWHERE. I used to say the same thing -Hell, I still do after being PROVEN wrong, idiot that I am!- and a woman laid waste to me, crushing me totally. And I can't think of anything more funny in this entire universe than having a girl put me that low, as she surely did. How. Fucking. Funny.

You're saying that BECAUSE it's never happened to you, not that you're not vulnerable. With a bit o' luck, you'll be able to keep up that lie throughout your entire life. But ohhhhhhhhh the joys of watching our Too Cool For School type fall flat on our asses.

Quote:

Well, then I've been having truly odd sex for goin' on five years now.

I meant sexlessness, no masturbation or desire. That's frickin' odd. Not "I want sex but I'm not looking for it because I have a comfortable little life and I'm a little afraid of men", which is how I immediately interpreted your bravado. But hey, you may genuinely believe it, too- in which case it really will be funny.

You know, I taught an entirely metaphysics free kind of martial arts, but as I got better at it I did one learn one cosmic and universal truth: human beings are just one big pile of vulnerabilities. Flesh is weak, even when it's strong. Independence doesn't truly exist- which is a HUGE problem for someone like me who builds his identity around being independant. And you.

See? I love the attack so much I can't even stop attacking when it's ME. Christ, I do so love the attack. Out-thinking, out-fighting, I do love a good brawl. Best compliment of my life? Someone called me a "predator of the intellect".

Heh, there ya go makin' with the pretty again. If it were anyone but you, it would start to weird me out.

Sadly, I know I'm a lot more vulnerable than I think I am, if that makes sense. But in a way, what I believe about myself defines my reality. For the most part, I'm busy enough and have enough friends that I don't notice the lack of a warm body in bed. It doesn't really strike me until I get to talking to someone else about how lonely THEY are.

Then, I have to go back to my "Hey, I'm not like that!" rigamarole because I begin to wonder what's wrong with me that I DON'T want a commitment, a husband, another person around more often than not.

See, I truly see myself as not lonely. So long as I know I'm not lonely, I'll just not be.

Until, of course, it slaps me across the face and says, "Pay attention, dammit!" As it does every now and then.

You mean like, "Why haven't you answered my post yet, Jiiiiimmmm??? (Can't quite manage "Jimmy". You just don't seem like a Jimmy.) Here I waited a whole..." God, I don't even know and am too lazy to go back and look. Can't carry through the farce.

See, I'm usually the one who is chastised for "forgetting" to call, for missing a date, for not remembering birthdays/anniversaries. My ex can still remember when we first kissed, for God's sake. I can't even remember the exact day I left him.

Heh, I do remember that he bought me a rose and some perfume for our first Christmas as a couple. *snerk* I laughed at him and told him that I really hadn't gotten him anything because I thought I remembered saying that I didn't want anything. You shoulda seen his face.

Not getting your new boyfriend anything for Christmas: $0.
The look on his face when he realizes you're serious: priceless.

Quote:

Now THAT is my one true fear. I honestly dread the day that God sees fit to punish me for my refusal to contribute to the species by getting married and crankin' out the young'uns by sending me The Perfect Guy to shatter all my delusions about independence.

It will happen. I have no doubt. I will be forced to eat every single one of my brave words with some wasabi to make them go down harder still. Dammit.

Except for that last bit, you're spot-on. You might even be right about the last, though I'm usually far more comfortable around men than I ever am around women.

God, the mine fields abundant in even a simple conversation with my gender!

But if you mean afraid of a real relationship with a man, then you're by-God right on the money. I will run screaming into the

Quick note-

"Can't quite manage "Jimmy". You just don't seem like a Jimmy."

I'm not. Under any circumstances. It's one of those things women start doing that gets them kicked out of my bed and called a cab.

In fact, I have a rigid system for how familiar people can be for me: if you don't know me, my name is "sir" or "Mr. V__________". If you're familiar with me and we've known each other a while you may call me "James". But anyone below my age, you must keep calling me "sir" or "mr" no matter how familiar we are. The exception to this rule are women I'm doing, who may call me "James" or, if they're good and have demonstrated longtime proper obediance, "Jim". People familiar with me and over my age may call me "James". Longtime friends may call me "Jim". Permission to use the term "Jimmy" has been given to precisely two people in the entire Universe, my mother and father, who earned that right. If Jesus comes back from the dead tomorrow, He must call me "sir".

Online it's different. You can use my made up name or whatever comes up. You may NOT call me Jimmy, but it's not something I get upset about online if someone wants to insult me. I mean it's not like it's exactly genius provocation or anything
(people are real fucking brave when they're outside of the range of my mitts. Inside range, not so much). Here's an irony- people never speak to me in real life the way they talk to me online, but I speak pre-fucking-cisely like this to them.

Well, shucks, it looks like I arrived late and everybody's gone home.

But just in case anybody's still listening...

I'm a 20-year-old SWF (21 on March 2nd!), going to school in Pittsburgh, PA, but originally from central New Jersey. Aside from FF, I love photography and the written word. I think I'm an easy-going, low maintenance chick - maybe a Kaylee/Zoe, with a bit of River's goofiness thrown into the mix.

Guy-wise, I adore Washies - goofy and smart and sweet and not all hard and muscley. I look for someone who can be a good friend first, and a good boyfriend second. I also love committment (OK, anyone reading just tuned out right there), so one-night-stands don't interest me at all.

Just got out of four years' worth of CRAZY, and I'm not looking to dive into anything, but it's never a bad thing to just have a friend.

This thread is fantastic.

Gutterball, Bitterbierce, we always hoped you kids would get together. Mayhaps you could continue your chat in a more private locale, so the rest of us lonely types can find each other's posts? Just asking, I don't mean to offend, and I'm certainly not sorry to have you around. You both make me laugh, except for Bitterbierce.

Citizen, DaveShayne, in case you pop in again, just want to say that this thread was vastly more clever with you two around.

Oh, right, me.

I'm an intelligent, intellectual 23 year-old SWM from Champaign-Urbana, IL (Hi, Arcadia!), with Simon's politeness (and sometimes awkwardness), Wash's sense of humor (and usually courage), and occasional bouts of Mal-like moodiness. I'm tallish, slender, bespectacled, and not too blond. I've got a decent picture I can link, but not right at the moment.

They say I'm very good at writing, and I believe them; my only other talent is to appear talented at things I'm not. More useful than you'd think, but it gets me into trouble.

I'm big into science fiction (who'd have guessed?), writing, games, movies, and the full spectrum of human expression, generally. College drop-out, in case that bugs you, working as a copyeditor and eventually planning to go back to school.

I've banned myself from relationships for six months at least, but I'm very interested in meeting new people. Especially, you know, girlish people. I like those. Somebody said something about friends first, then the rest? Yeah, I'm with you there.

Arcadia, I'm floored to meet somebody from C-U, even if you are moving away soon. When I go back to school, it'll probably be in film; I've already wrote and/or produced three little independent flicks. Drop me a line, if I don't get to you first.

Zamiam, you sound like my type, and Toledo's not SO far. Feel free to get in touch with me.

Copilot, you had me up to "California." I did hike up Mt. Shasta once, though. Good times.

Seryn, I also absorb accents. It's a wonderful thing to be able to do, but sometimes a very unfortunate thing not to be able to NOT do. English rose type, eh? Bah, too bad you're in freakin' England.

All others, feel free to send me a wave.

Arrogant, depraved and self-aware. Cool. Now I have a question for you.

Which firefly character do you like better, Mal or Jayne?

Reason I ask is that you are uncannily similar to a character in a novel that I'm writing (even in some superficial details, curiously) and I couldn't let this thread die without taking the chance to work out aspects of your psyche to the finest detail.

Eh, I'm still around. Looking in from time to time to see if there are any takers on my add or any adds to respond to. Threads usually are the most clever at the begining and my generaly not being around here I think isn't necesarilly the cause of any dip in quality so much as just coincidental.

Okay, here goes. I'm not really looking for any face to face meets, call me paranoid, but it would be nice to have a new im buddy. Also, I don't see a lot of people from the Pacific Northwest around here. Are any of you? Anyway, I'm very much a Kaylee, in personality not engine skills, but I have a little bit more of an edge. Hey, the world's not always a happy, shiny place and I can be a "bitch" when the situation calls for it. So I guess I'm kind of like Inara and Zoe in that aspect. I also adore Zoe's gun *drool* I like most any kind of person, but I don't tolerate blatant stupidity well. If anybody's interested in chatting drop me a line.

About me and what I'm looking for
I'm a no frills kind of girl. I don't mind getting my hands dirty or breaking a sweat doing physical labor. I love to work on my yard and landscape projects. I’m a T-shirt & jeans type who usually only dresses up for special occasions & RARELY wears a dress and makeup. It wasn't given as an option on the questionnaire, but my ex has a daughter that will always be a part of my life so in a sense, I do have a kid. I recently was introduced to riding on the back of a motorcycle and loved it, so if you have a Harley, that is a definite plus. I don’t drink much, just a beer or margarita once in a while. Love to just sit & shoot the breeze or just cuddle & watch some TV. I'm not really looking for "instant" love but I wouldn't say I'm ruling out the idea of it either. I'm mainly looking for someone to go out & do things & have some fun with now & then. You are probably asking yourself "Why don't she just hang out with her girl friends if that is all she's looking for?” Well it's like this, other than my best friend I have always preferred the company of guys. I'd much rather listen to a guy's hunting story than listen to a woman talk about where she had her nails done last. I hope to find someone who hopefully shares the same interests or is looking to expand their horizons. I want a man who isn't afraid of being affectionate. I girl likes to know that she is wanted and cared about by the man she is with. And I hope this doesn't sound bad, but I don't respond to winks/emails from profiles without pictures posted. No fair you getting to see me and me not getting to see you.

Aye, don't I just know that one!

Its when you find your self in a nightclub clutching a $35 cocktail, bought for you by some honest-to-god-cockney mob member (of course your savvier friend has neglected to share this information until about five minutes after you realise you are copying his accent) and can you stop? oh god no... you carry on and on and despite your best efforts it gets worse, soon your copying his mannerisms and inflections and oh my god why wont it stop?!

Fortunetly, he was either pissed enough or I was cute enough to get away with an arm around the neck hug and a kiss on the forehead - I suppose the girls version of the 'ain't he just the cutest' hair ruffle.

Ha, see this is why I've been single for goin on three years - not cause i'm snobbish and too high in my standards, not cause i'm determined to stop kissing toads, not even 'cause i'm commitment phobic, socially standoffish, and aggressively protective of my person and space.

But because I'm s**t scared of having to hold a conversation!

Gutterball - everything hurts from laughing, it is so refreshing to see you two. Oh god my sides hurt.

I think i'm kinda like you about five years late, you keep saying things that I agree with, its uncanny.
But you kinda made me realise one little thing - i'm not afraid of that perfect guy coming along, infact, I think I eagerly await the glowyness and the pythonesque 'he's the one' finger pointing from the sky.

I reckon its about time someone came along to make me revise my opinions of people (never as vital as they are on the net or in the movies)sex (um, icky, sweaty, ultimetly pointless) and relationships (restrictive and um, ultimetly pointless)

I can see BB rolling his eyes, but you know what, I don't give a flying f***

So cheers

Unfortunetly, scanning the posts, lots of fine men here, not a damn one of them anywhere near me. crap.

Ah well, back to normal.

I'm off to join Dave with that popcorn.

Dave: you may like this - a few years back there was a report in the Fortean Times, a troup of monkeys would regularly break into some big office in Japan and go around stealing cigarettes, then the alpha male would sit in the CEO's chair and smoke them. Got to the point where the monkeys were so common peoples just ignored them and carried on - real monkeys in your office!

Oo, Gutterball, as a co-habitor with a Neo mastiff/Old English Mastiff/Great Dane cross, and a pure O E Mastiff, and being a woman apparently beloved of cat kind, be careful what you wish for! Acidic drool, eye-melting gas and all-invasive hair - it's often a comfort to have my cat glare at me.

But seeing as little dogs are so gorram insecure and yappy, go with Irish Wolfhounds or pure Danes - less hair, no drool (not the viscous carpet eroding stuff anyway)

Unfortunetly, the gas is ever present.

Hopefully, it only applies to you. Heh.

Oo, Gutterball, as a co-habitor with a Neo mastiff/Old English Mastiff/Great Dane cross, and a pure O E Mastiff, and being a woman apparently beloved of cat kind, be careful what you wish for! Acidic drool, eye-melting gas and all-invasive hair - it's often a comfort to have my cat glare at me.

But seeing as little dogs are so gorram insecure and yappy, go with Irish Wolfhounds or pure Danes - less hair, no drool (not the viscous carpet eroding stuff anyway)

Unfortunetly, the gas is ever present.

Yes, sadly I know. But I'd rather have the Bog of Eternal Stench and Alien-acid drool than all that yapping. There is nothing less useful on this planet than a small dog. That includes the Slinky.

At least the Slinky is fun to watch tumble down the stairs. Kinda like some people I know.

Aw that's ok sweetie, it's a special fun breaking in girlies with initially mistaken apprehensions that they run things, or even have a say in them. There are no women so happy and tamed as ones who began needing taming. Call me Petruchio.

Please, let's do this in an orderly fashion, people- feminist lynchers to the right, outraged SNAG slapfighters line up on the left, and we have an area for "scared" people to mill about making clucking noises in the hall. If you would please sign the guestbook on the way in.

Hey BB, sorry I didn't reply sooner. I was home all weekend swinging a sledge hammer at a wall that was in my way. It is no longer.

So, in all seriousness and without mocking (really!) I do have to wonder if you've ever had a woman hold you down and ravish you until you forget who and where you are. No? Bummer.

But good job on that body count you've got going! I bow before your obvious studliness (just don't mistake the bow for something else, I still have my sledgehammer...)

Really, all meant in humor, it takes all kinds and I do find you entertaining. Especially since you're half a continent away.

Got to the point where the monkeys were so common peoples just ignored them and carried on - real monkeys in your office!

I'll have to track down the name of that company. I wonder how hard it is to learn Japanese?

Wow, I can't believe I didn't see this thread until now... funny. I've always thought there should be a dating service for sci-fi geeks/dorks/nerds/whatever name you prefer to call yourself. Of course, the numbers would be completely whacked - 100 guys to every 1 girl...

Neat idea, though - any single ladies in the Milwaukee area, by chance? I doubt it, but worth a shot.

The sad thing is.. this is almost true... of ANY dating site. Go to ANY dating site/service/etc.. and look to see if you can find actual numbers. In most populated geographic areas.. there typically seems to be about a 10 to 1 ratio of men seeking women to women seeking men. Then when you start to look at less populated areas... yes.. there are places where the ratio can be 100 to 1.. or MORE!!!

I have known women who have posted the most basic information (virtually none) at a dating/special interest site.. with no photo.. no real information at all.. other than age and being a woman.. and will get several emails a day. Post a semi attractive photo.. and they get more emails than they can possibly even read. Some guys I know who have posted profiles have never been contacted... not even once. They have to do all the contacting.. while trying to break through an entire ocean of white noise.. just to get a "hello". Is it a wonder why so many guys are frustrated?

This is the really sad thing... all you guys out there that think the whole "lesbian" thing is hot (I don't get it).. you better be careful what you wish for. If you go to many dating sites.. if you can find the numbers.. you will notice that the number of women seeking other women.. is APPROACHING the same number of women who are seeking men. I wouldn't doubt in a few years if there becomes MORE women seeking women than women seeking men..

Sigh... not that any of this matters anymore to me... but it still makes me depressed..

Ahhh, now I'm in a much better general mood, no prize for guessing why. Why, I'm veritably bright eyed and bushy tailed. So! Where was I.

Which firefly character do you like better, Mal or Jayne?

I would caution against using that question to determine another person's psychology. I don't have a personality like either, nor do I have an analogue in the entire FF 'verse.

Reason I ask is that you are uncannily similar to a character in a novel that I'm writing (even in some superficial details, curiously) and I couldn't let this thread die without taking the chance to work out aspects of your psyche to the finest detail.

Hahaha, good luck with that.
