They said they had chocolate, right?

Go eat the chocolate and STFU.

bunnee, i don’t know how much else there is to say lol. everyone’s like “no, the writer was being a smartass and has a good sense of humor! i’d want to be friends with them!” and all of this is just not true. she just didn’t want to make the effort of actually trying to make friends and put it on us to take the next step…..through this note….which made it awkward.

Actually, now we know he’s a she, maybe she really does have balls, like this. Bet a lot of the guys and gals on the floor would be clamouring and clambering to get a taste…

If one train leaves the station at 8:00 AM at 50 MPH,
45 minutes before a second train leaves at 62.5 MPH,
then why are they partying in the computer room?

The regulars here all know that she knows (along with all of us) that pop culture references are pretty much par for this course, and that if that sort of thing isn’t your cup of tea (see, even though that’s a common idiom, I picked it especially for anglophile even though I could have chosen a more obscure phrase…we do that for/to each other from time to time), then you’re certainly welcome to book out of here (nod to park rose) and patronize your local regular links, driving range, or PuttPutt course.

If you’re still reading, can you confirm my take on your opening lines @#9 or tell us what you meant if my reading is off base? Please ?

no comments? I see 9 comments on the main page.
are you mocking me? I’ll mock you intraweb.

My guess is that the new note showed up with a number (9) of comments already displayed, but in the spot between the bold headline and the explanatory blurb, somehow it was saying that there were zero comments.

BTW, I’m a retired teacher who got an 800 on the optional SAT Level 2 Algebra ‘achievement test’ back in the spring of 1968, so although I may be rusty on some aspects, if you want to work some problems into your comments as added challenges, I’d be happy to have a go at solving them.

I get almost all of the references here, but when I can’t figure it out even after a dose of Google, sometimes, especially if it seems like it’s something I should recognize, I just ask the poster to explain it.

P.S. But to answer your question: Yes, she knows lots of things that the others don’t, but I can’t tell you what they are for a fairly obvious reason.

TSBE: rose, I never saw the film, so I just dealt with the surface mention of linear algebra, which I just delved into a little with a junior college course in matrix algebra. Wasn’t trying to prompt a description or assessment of your digits and after looking up my new cool scrabble word, gormless, I’m left with two primary options for what you might have meant. I think I’ll just leave it indeterminate for now…y’know, keep up the mystery and all.

and yes i’m “quoting” a pop reference.

Way to say boo’ya rents! Want me to be friends with assholes??! How about now, huh?

Which I thought was pretty clever and funny. It seemed feh did not get your original ‘first!’ joke. You said you would not explain it. If you had done so, you might have become friends with an ‘asshole’. Your parents would be happy as per what you originally wrote.

I thought you would get my reference to your original post. But it’s still in the grey, so it probably is a mixture of being too cryptic and not that funny.

Regarding linear algebra, sorry, reference to Good Will Hunting which you also seem to refer to in your first post, or allude to. So as pop culture as they come. Contained and restrained myself, because it probably really would have been even more cryptic and not worth it. But, if you wanna be friends with assholes, or not, there are plenty of us here.

ty, I meant what I originally said at 9.7. Nails at present, rather blunt and gormless.

Anyway, dave, join in the fun. I’ve got no fight with you. You’re green on your two comments. Just enjoy it.

There’s a pop reference for you.
