A day late, but it still counts for the Valentine's Day theme! Login to your pup's journal and list the other people on the island that they are attracted to
( Read more... )
Okay, let me begin by saying I've been here all of... oh, eighteen days, so my familiarity with the male population of Tabula Rasa is very, very low. Second of all, I'm not really that kind of girl, so, uh, a few categories here:
I. Men* Who Could Get It in the Future When I Feel Ready For That Particular Step In My Life and Once I Get to Know Them A Little Better Eduardo Saverin: Please don't read this, Eduardo. I feel really awkward about this, stop reading. Do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars, do not advance token, it's not a, a thing, it's just… he's… smart and sweet and hot and, and I know it was just an accident of timing, but he's been there for me for all of those eighteen occasionally-traumatic days and… I think he's amazing.
Columbus Ohio: I mean, not - not like I have a crush or anything, I don't, I think, but there's, um, something endearing about all that awkwardness. He's cute. He is. I don't know. So, um… maybe? Although probably not, since I look like his friend, which just makes things weird. So
( ... )
...believe it or not, I'm more disturbed by the second article on that list than the first.
But really? I mean - really? That's, that's. Wow. Okay. Not passing Go, not collecting two hundred - that's not supposed to be a thing about going to jail because of your age, is it? Shit, Olive.
Which isn't to say that I would, not that I wouldn't, but, okay, you know, whatever, moving on, pretending that wasn't a thing.
Dude, I was really hoping that disturbed wouldn't be a word that even entered into this conversation, let alone with reference to yourself. Actually, I was just hoping for no conversation, I said don't read, why did you read, turn around, ugh, I have to go do something vague somewhere that isn't here now.
IT WAS A REFERENCE TO MONOPOLY AND NOT READING THIS, AS IN YOU DON'T GO BEYOND THAT SQUARE TO THE SQUARES WHERE THERE'S STUFF ABOUT HOW YOU'RE HOT, OH GOD
It sounded like you were expecting disturbed! It was the first word to come to mind! And when you're talking about a guy who looks like my former best friend being able to get it, yeah, I think disturbing is pretty accurate! Jesus Christ.
Just - just - no, okay, it doesn't matter, none of this is real, you started it with the list of who could get it and the Monopoly reference.
It's the vocabulary of the related activities I am not actually in any way, shape or form actively pursuing with anyone at this point in time because, like I said, not ready! And hypothetical! All hypothetical! I was just following the instructions for this thing, how can I do that if I don't have a list? And I didn't know he looked like your best friend, maybe if you told me this I would find him less attractive and maybe the sheer volume of exclamation points your reaction is causing me to use is bumping him up the list!
It never came up, I didn't even know that you knew him! But yes, now you know, he looks like Mark, so it would be really bizarre for me to have to see you with him - not that that matters, really, but it should be said, I don't. You look like his friend and he looks like my friend, it's weird, is all. And I never said you had to use exclamation points, you can stick to other punctuation if you want!
I didn't say you said I had to, I use whatever punctuation I want, and I am using exclamation points! And you don't have to look at my hypothetical future relationship with a guy I'm only sort of vaguely interested in and don't actually plan on going out with anyway if it bothers you so much! No one's making you watch! That is weird, Eduardo, on so many levels! I told you this is awkward.
You two are totally making me feel better about my weird-ass conflicted issues preventing me from even thinking about who could, uh, get it. Is that what we're saying now? 'Can get it'? Anyway, thanks!
...that's also a little disturbing. But believe me, weird-ass conflicted issues might suck, but they are so better than this, god, so yeah, uh, you're welcome, I guess.
It's not a trap if it's just listening to reason! I said don't look! He looked! And commented and called it disturbing, that's, that is definitely grounds for being on my side.
I need to go back to that earlier plan of just. not being here.
Yeah, it was pretty bad. There were various kinds of bad in there.
I can't even make normal sentences work right now, god, entirely list canceled. Maybe I'll just become a nun. Or a lesbian. Or a hermit. Or a lesbian hermit nun.
Hermit nun just makes me think of a nun that has this portable convent on her back. That'd get heavy, that's not the answer. And girls are just as complicated -- no, I think girls are more complicated -- so that's an option probably not a solution.
This is why I don't have a list. Well, no, mostly that's other reasons, that's... a mess of a thing. But it is also a valid reason for the non-having of a list.

You said don't look, it's true. But! Saying don't look makes it hard to resist looking, let's face it. Everyone's wrong! Or... everyone's right!

Inclined to award you the point on boys sucking, though. I've been there. You would not believe the ways in which I have been there.
...no, wait, that one, that one was the worst sentence ever.
