Questions, Questions, Who's Got Questions?

I'm bored. That makes it an excellent time for Random Question Day. Got random questions? I've got random answers. (Possibly also carefully-constructed nonrandom answers. Depends how interesting the question is.)

Why is my romantic life nonexistent? And if prunes are dried plums, what the hell is prune juice?

Can't help you with the first one.

As for the second one: a warrior's drink.

1. Probably you are just an unlucky introvert. Have you tried asking your friends to introduce you to eligible persons of your general preferences? It's old-fashioned but reasonably likely to result in a pleasant evening. Or you could move out to the Bay Area; that seems to work for a lot of people.

2. Ooh! I know this! Prune juice isn't really juice in the same way that, say, orange juice is. It's made by taking the prunes (dried already) and stewing them in water, so it's more like an extract or sort of fruit tea.

So you take the water out of the plum and then soak the resulting dried plum in different water? What the hell kind of farcical exercise is that?

I don't know, man, I didn't do it!

That actually has more relevance to my romantic life than I initially imagined it would.

Heh. :)
