  1. So I matched with an Asian girl on tinder; I started off with a name pun and it's carried on from there... after I found out she was in accounting, I ask, "So hey, if you're good with regular numbers, how are you feel about phone numbers?"

     

    Of course I manage to screw up my English when it matters, and talking to an ESL student no less :picard::lol:

      Beware..she might steal your heart, & continue looking 20's, right into her 50's.. I've seen crazier things happen.

      that's okay, i don't look while i'm texting either.

  3. Have you ever been set up with someone who really reminded you of someone you definitely weren't attracted to? How'd you deal with it?

      I don't understand why people under 30 now are seemingly always looking for reasons not to date someone. Social media makes things weird maybe.

       

      How about judging her on her own merits? try it out, maybe you'll actually have fun. Oh no a full figured blonde wants to get to know me :picard: I don't get it.

      @Jimmy McGill I have nothing against her personally, and if something works, it works. But it's a similar principle (not the exact same, obviously) to why you wouldn't want to give your kid the same name as the person that bullied you in high school.

      I guess its just the number of threads I've seen over the last couple of years from younger posters on CDC, there seems to be a lot of anxiety and discussion around just having a simple night out.

      @Rubik will do! and yeah hahaha, she knows. She was kinda happy-surprised, and she's talked to me since, so I'd say I'm doing decent so far :P

      @Green Building they're not as far as they should be lol. I still have a couple weeks before the next one is due, but I should probably be a little more diligent in my homework.

       

      I just feel a bit burnt out (more fatigued than normal) so I just want to avoid it all and end up going on CDC and reddit and checking emails and whatnot so I don't have to dive into it.

      I hear that, tomorrow is the start of mid-terms week for me - 9 in 5 days. I've been doing so much work I think I'm going nuts, however, I find when I get out and go for a run or a hike, especially in this kickass weather, I return to the books with a different kind of re-charge that a good meal, sleep, or coffee provides. All 4 though and now we're talking.  

       

      Take the time away to browse Reddit, but also go for a hike and hit the books; you'll thank yourself in 2 weeks.

    4. thejazz97

      thejazz97

      Thanks! Yeah, I probably should get out more.

  9. Where's Ryan Miller when you need him?

  10. The word "eligibilities" should be outlawed. Too many i's. :P

      Alf should be outlawed.  One Melmacian is one too many on Earth.  Even PETA agrees with me.

  11. KHABIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIB!!!!!!!

     

    Sucks that his championship had to be marred by controversy and dumb decisions, though.

      The fight was real, but the aftermath was scripted.  This is WWE style hype for the soon to be announced rematch.  Ali took this wrestling method to hype his boxing matches in the sixties.  Now, though, it’s gotten crazy.  Didn’t McGregor through a chair at a bus one time?  Now there are several other MMA guys climbing into the ring to cause mayhem.  This is wrestling hype gone bad.

    3. thejazz97

      Conor's teammate or fellow fighter or something was apparently taunting him after the match and IIRC Conor's attacked Khabib's team bus a while back.

       

      It's still dumb, but not completely unjustified.

      I half expected Alf to come down from the rafters with a baseball broom to clean the mats...

  12. I've got a sneaking suspicion that Pekka Rinne will be a Blue Jacket come this time next year.

  13. Canucks will be in the playoffs come next Sailor Moon, book it.

      You can crush your papers, bud, and I'm going to crush my midterms. 

  16. French speakers of CDC, do you use “donc” or “alors” to mean “so”?

    1. Cramarossa

      Cramarossa

      I am not a native francophone (took French for years in school here in the US) but I've always used "donc". I would see "alors" in textbooks but no one I knew ever used it. Except if they were saying "zut alors" lol.

    2. Art Vandelay

      Art Vandelay

      As someone bilingual, it depends on the sentence. “Donc” is what you would hear from a native speaker 99% of the time; It can mean “and then”. Think dude where’s my car at the Chinese restaurant. “Alors” is used similarly to therefore; the previous remark relates to the next. It would be first in translations because it directly translates.

      Didn't even know alors could be used in that way, but I'm not too much of a French speaker.

  18. I'm absolutely livid with impark. Anyone else had a bad experience with them?

     

    I've got a spot reserved for my job, and someone was parked there when I got to work. I parked in an unreserved spot in the same lot. I had my pass displayed and everything.

     

    Guess who got a ticket and who didn't? :wacko:

      They told me to bring back my pass when/if I no longer needed them. When I did, I found out they moved their office, without giving any notice. What a fantastic company...

      @thejazz97 yeah that happens, just don't be a jerk about it and you just never know down the line what can happen. Sometimes people need to go through a series of bad relationships to realize what a nice guy you were :P

      One of the servers I’m friends with at work called me buddy the other day soooooo ya. That happened. I feel like I have options but every time it goes nowhere or they just stop talking to me.

      @Jaku you are one of the lucky few :P girls often are the ones taking the guys out of the friend zone, when guys rarely friend zone as it is (unless you're downright not interested in them).

       

      Quote

      I wish I could take a shot and not lose the friendship hahaha

      @thejazz97 not saying it's not doable.  I've stayed friends with girls with whom it did not work out, just do know that it takes a lot of strength to know that someone you're interested in does not feel the same way, and it's probably best to let the physical attraction die off a bit before trying to reinvest in a friendship with them.  In these cases I've had to see that they will be friends and nothing more, but once you can see the value in them as a person beyond their beauty then it can work.  That or point out their negatives after things don't work out so you can see them clearly and move on, not living behind rose-colored glasses.  (You want a slow healing process?  Or essentially point out all their crap and make yourself not interested in the same way ever again?  Your choice :P)

      @Brad Marchand As a Bombers fan, even I can agree with that lol. I had Saskatchewan winning both games against us. I feel bad for Harris, because he has to single-handedly carry this offense right now.

      @c00kies They have too much talent to be struggling this much. Wonder if making the switch to Streveler would help things a bit.

      Our receivers are kind of meh, and our defense has issues. I'm not sure if it's a scheme thing or personnel situation. I also notice that we haven't tried many trick plays this year, so I'm thinking there's a lack of trust by the coaches too.

  23. I too appreciate a little Orca Boy in life.
