 :rollin yea, sounds like an airhead then which is definitely a fair reason to back away.  That's also significantly worse than the state flags.

Yeah, good move. The last thing you need is to come home one day and the laundry is in the crib and the baby in the drier.  :P

I called it off with flag girl. At trivia the other night she thought "4" was an odd number. Not odd as in strange, but odd as in the opposite of even. 

Holy shit.

Yeaaaa... that's when you excuse yourself to go take a piss, and then climb out the window and run.

I was going to say jump off a balcony but... could be bad taste :P
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Where do you hang out that this is considered "trivia"?

And yeah, she's dumber than dirt.

I think the question was "How many Star Wars movies did George Lucas direct?". Neither of us knew the answer, and her reply was "I'd go with 4. It's one of my favorite odd numbers".

Also... I think she was right... He directed A New Hope, and then the prequel trilogy.

Maybe... maybe she actually is a genius!

I mean...how many people heard this? No one said anything? Even if you or others thought it was a joke, surely someone would have just been like "haha...4, an odd number...haha... <.<   >.> "

Just me. It was just the two of us on the team. I kind of paused and then didn't say anything. I didn't want to be a dick if she legit thought it was an odd number.   

I will also add that she thought back to the future was overrated and that it's not even worth her time to watch the sequels.

I watched my first Star Wars movie (ep.4) maybe two years ago now... Didn't care for it.

So I have a date or meetup or whatever with an OK Cupid girl on Wednesday.

She has a 9 year old daughter and is 3'11. I am not sure how well this will go. First first-date in like 20 months.

Make sure she brings her daughter's booster seat. Hope you're not going to an amusement park.

I haven't had a first date in 7 years. You'll do fine.  :lol
