Definition: Dating flocculation

The process by which two crazy people* get together and start a relationship, thereby causing them to sink to the bottom of the dating pool, where they are easily filtered out. This is akin to the same process in water treatment or swimming pool management. Sometimes water is contaminated by dirt or other pollutants which are too fine to settle out ( Read more... )

Aww you have to leave at least one!

Damn you! Now I have fantasies of Crazy Mrs. Dr. Boyfriend being flocculated very, very hard, and I didn't want my fantasies about her to go beyond defenestration! :D

I'm sure you will resist the urge to tell her to go floc herself.

Or better yet, "Get flocced!" Curse you, esprit d'escalier!

Thankfully, this woman has no kids of her own, or I would be tempted to describe this magic male Dom she's looking for (having already rejected a number of excellent candidates) as a "bad mother floccer."

"I'll flocculator when you stop dating that other Crazy Person."

I still think you ought to use floccuastic.

While my first thought was "gee, the world totally needs more crazy people so they can all pair off and I shall have a clear, beautiful dating pool to choose from", THIS IS A FALLACY. When crazy people's bits clump together we are left with MORE CRAZY PEOPLE. Eventually, even flocculants, like the Black Plague or the spontaneous combustion of ovaries that is caused at WalMart won't help.

The jury is still out on the username, but I tend to go with things that are easy to communicate in a noisy and non-writing-things-down environment. Well, when I think about it anyway.

In act 2 we will see the evil genius of the dating flocculant: It causes sterility, and is slightly radioactive, so your standard-issue watch with Geiger counter will let you spot one if they should approach. Oops, did I just give away the Master Plan? Hmm, time for the "We're not so different, join me or die" speech...
