Oh the ramen that I could have bought with the money spent that THAT

^ yes but ramen isn't nearly so pretty.

Is it strange when one doesn't have any frivolous possessions?? :confused: (only in the meaning 'frivol' has got in German... :o)

Well, but it can be I got an excellent denial-mechanism in this field: whether it's the 157th keyring pendant, handbags never worn cos they turn out to have a stupid colour/material after all, pervertly expensive scientific books which do not exactly contain a lot and/or that which interests me really, ... they ain't frivolous for me. Really! ;)

A suit that cost so much that i dare not wear it for fear of getting it even slightly dirty :o

I'm sure the excitement will wear off once i begin my life in corporate america but for the moment that suit is by far my most frivolous belonging.

I once had a diamond and platinum ring that cost as much as two mortgage repayments. Old-cuts, twenty-seven of them. It was frivolous so I sold it for four mortgage repayments. That was six years ago and I still regret it.

new question:
have you ever used an online dating site?
if so, what happened?
if not, why not?

;)

nope.

i don't know why not. i met my husband in 2001 and knew he was the one, so i never really had a reason to try one out. and in general i guess i'm just more comfortable meeting people casually on my own or through friends.

i'm not even really comfortable with social networking sites that are there "for friendships" so i definitely wouldn't have adapted well to an online dating service. and as an aside, i don't consider this kind of interaction to fall into that category. this falls into the "meeting people casually on my own or through friends" category. so i guess it's the intent of meeting someone romantically or otherwise that makes me feel kind of skeevy.

^that's three ¿ question of the day ?s.


i know nothing of such matters

skeevy

No, the internet was just a gleam in Al Gore's eye when last I ventured into The Meat Market.

Looks like your "yes" answerers are going to plead the fifth, Ceej. :)

I don't often have too many dates, so I doubt I'd go for internet dates.
Usually I just find my dates at the grocery store.

Altho my mom, makes the best walnut date cookies...ya' know, its been a long time. Think I'll call ma. I always get my dates from ma.;)

i think those are actually cockroaches in heavy syrup.
