I was told to post this here as well:

So true, So true.

Oh good. I'm in the right place. Except for the getting laid part.

[lrc]

I certainly don't seem to be in the right place for getting laid either.
:-)

[marie13]

I'm not on facebook. Nor any of the others. I don't need more homework.

[blacksheep_lj]

*snort* yeah. Pretty much. And I haven't been staying up late very much lately.

[blacksheep_lj]

I have a hard time convincing friends to use LJ.

So, it's like a place where you ~could~ stay up late talking, but only if you can convince people to come over to visit, first.

Sorry, I wasn't logged in

[oubliet]

That was me.

I've got to admit that I haven't been spending much time here either.
I had a few things that I wanted to process, and that started the train of thought that led to the fb vs. lj post.

[satyrlovesong]

Perhaps if all the people complaining about not getting laid got together, there would be some actual sex happening. They could pleasure eachother, knowing in advance that this is what they are looking for. Maybe one of LJ's fuctions is a mating call?

[lrc]

What's really happening is probably a lot closer to: "I can't get laid by the people I want to".
For me, it's more like "I can't seem to get laid by anyone within an hour of my house, or who has their own transportation and lives within two hours".

[lrc]

And, yes I know that in theory Zab lives with me, but she's been in New York since May.

I couldn't get laid when I was using another "social site" either.

I was beginning to think it was me.

I feel much better now.

Still un-laid, though...
