[REDACTED]: you know what I just realized?
[info]tithonium: hm?
[REDACTED]: there are all these people using the Internet to get laid.
[REDACTED]: And those people owe us. You and me, especially.
[REDACTED]: But do they thank us?
[REDACTED]: No they do not.
[info]tithonium: they don't.
[REDACTED]: I think we should demand... what should we demand, Marty?
[info]tithonium: hm
[info]tithonium: enough money that women would throw themselves at us.
[REDACTED]: that's way better than my idea, which was just to demand that women throw themselves at us.
[REDACTED]: because that gives us flexibility.
[info]tithonium: exactly.
[REDACTED]: okay. so I expect I'll see this demand on your LJ or twitter stream soon.
[REDACTED]: because I'm too much of a wuss to write it up myself.
[info]tithonium: I'll see what I can do.


So, if you would, please send checks, cash, or paypal. Make checks payable to "Adam Smyth"; use my primary email address for paypal.

Especially since your idea would only make any kind of sense if at least half of the people using the internet to get laid were women.

And I don't know if that's true. Complicated, considering the social dimorphism...

(I of course, take this not at all personally, as I got my first net account about... well, gee, it looks like just after you were born.)

I'm still not clear on why you and [REDACTED] are the ones that are [REPONSIBLE] for the internets powers on [COUPLING]. Elaborate.

I felt it was better not to investigate the assumptions behind the assertion, as long as the assertion was to my benefit.
Tom[info]tommusic on June 29th, 2009 12:31 am (UTC)
I felt it was better not to send checks, cash, or paypal, since it wasn't clear that the assumptions behind the assertion were sound. Neener!

Damnit! My clever plans are foiled again.

So throwing ourselves at you is right out?

You had your chance.





You can have it again, of course, if you want it.

Sure, not a problem. So, first to determine how much your work on the inter-webi-tubes has improved my chances of getting laid:

I took the number of times I was able to get laid with the Internet (attributing all those times to application of superior technology) and subtracted the number of times I have gotten laid without the Internet (attributing those to personal seductive skill or plain luck).

I will happily send you a check for that large negative number, but I think that they tend to call those "bills". What is your mailing address again?

I actually do owe one of my relationships to you. I don't think I have enough money to result in women throwing themselves at you, though. (Would you want the sort of women (or men) who would throw themselves at you because you had money and nothing else?)
Loree: look down[info]loree on June 29th, 2009 01:50 am (UTC)
Perhaps [REDACTED] would have better success in getting laid if he didn't [REDACTED] the women who actually [REDACTED] themselves at him... I'm just sayin'.
Maura the Art Nun: oh yeah[info]sistawendy on June 29th, 2009 02:29 am (UTC)
Good friends so far, but no sex from the Internet just yet. You'll just have to wait for your check.
