I dont think it matters what you are. Chicks biggest turn on from a guy is self confidence.

I have my doubts about a self-confident shaggy gamer type being a big hit on the dating market man. First impressions are everything, and when it comes to that being a poser (of any kind - yuppie, goth, metro...) usually works a lot better. Because a lot of people mistake their thin layer of borrowed identity for personal confidence.

Most people suck.

Yea but then you are setting yourself up for a chick that is only looking for the surface. Those types of chicks don't know what they want so will not stick around for long. But if all you want is a skank to tap and let go by all means.

lol, rest assured, I try to stay clear from skanks. It's not just skanks who fall for that kind of person, though...just like it's not just boneheads who fall for sluts/bitches. Even good people can make themselves believe someone is a good match because he/she is hot/succesful/famous/rich.

It's just that I get so tired of having to go through the whole 'finding out what kind of person they are' process again and again. Jaded, I suppose.

Funny how those things go. But hey, as long as I stay this awesome it'll work out fine in the long run!

I dunno.. it sucks looking for a new person, but there's a definite thrill when you start tapping something for the first time. That whole discovery process of what makes her scream. There's just something nice about that.

Anyway, back on topic, check this out. It's an email indicator for your desk (USB powered of course).

Lets have some classics. It's just an animation:

LOL, I just got this one:

No hard feelings.

Btw, Sat, when you (finally) cross to phpBB3, you will be able to embed youtube vids on the forum.

The funny thing is that in politics, the children may be openly brainwashed by the adults think they are making their own decisions. It actually works a lot better like that.

Another classic on animal behavior

new google app... mail goggles. It's supposed to keep you from sending embarrassing emails when you've been drunk.

btw, it's nothing impressive. It times you to answer a series of simple math questions. By default it's only active on weekend nights (and it's only active at all if you enable the service).

lol. That's pretty awesome. But unless they're a semi-alcoholic, I doubt most people would have the foresight of activiting the service.

That app sure could have samed some pretty ugly situations for me, in the past. It's not that I get more candid when i'm drunk, I just become...creative. Lyrical if you will. Before I pass on into the slurred speech/can't type haze, that is.

There is a problem... I was solving advanced linear algebra stuff although I was drunk like an ass. I bet I am not the only one.

On the other side, I never have sent an embarrassing email because I was drunk. It was because I was testing my own e-mail client.

heh...I like sending embarrassing emails from other peoples' email clients when they forget to lock their computers. Always great fun.

btw, check out this restaurant. I guess it's not funny, per se, but it's cool. Their tables are touch-sensitive surfaces and you can use them as a menu to order your food. It'll also display your meal before you (in a 2d fashion, I'm sure) before you order so you can see what you're getting. Cool! No more freakin' waiters needed!

Oh that sounds nice. I hate when the bad waiters come up and always try to talk to you while you are mid conversation or your mouth is full. Then you are left to disconnect from the point you were about to make or to swallow your food half whole to answer. If the drink is low just refill it. /smack.

What? Not even holographic? Suckers.

Heh, I do the same thing with people's pc's. Either send out wacked emails or do some silly shit like take a picture of them, set it (in a mosaic) as desktop background and call them an egomaniac when they boot up their pc again. Lame, I know.

Restaurant is HAWT! Well, the place itself looks pretty bad, but the touch screen thing is an awesome idea. I'm gonna have to steal that if I ever go into the restaurant business. Which is, never.
