Man, he so cheated to get those girls

Aug 19, 2006 23:13

I was at a jewish networking event tonight. Was talking to this early twenty-something guy who just moved in with his parents. Entertaining guy. We're chatting up a couple of girls and I'm in a good mood since he's a great wingman: outgoing and unsuccessful. The two girls ask what we do. I make a snide comment about working at MS. They laugh at it; I figure this one's in the bag. They ask what he does. I wait for, "In between jobs living with my parents."

I know I'm in trouble when he says, "Well, my hobby is experimental superconductors, but..."

To draw attention to myself, I make a joke that if that's his hobby, his job better be pretty damned good. He pulls out his business card. I had no idea: "But... I'm the CEO of a corporation that will colonize mars by 2036."

I'm photocopying his business card and using it as my own. (he gave me permission)
