My WTF is that I just read Frumple's sig.

[Jopax]

My problem with asking her out when she's with friends is that these are mutual friends and I find it kinda rude to ask someone a question like that in front of people like that. The whole, I just wanna hang out with this person not any of you deal kinda breaks it :S

Also, completely unrelated: Excel is a viable art program it seems :S

[MaximumZero]

So pull her aside for a moment. Just say, "Hey, can I talk to you for a second?" And lead her away from the group. This is not only not rude, it's not terribly difficult, either.

[Jopax]

Yeah, that was kinda the plan, won't see her until next week tho so there's about eight days of writhing in ignorance :C

It's actually pretty good for pixel-style work. Spent a bit of time in one of the classes on it I had to meander through coloring cells into turtles and elephants and whatnot.

... not even remotely anything like that, though. That's kinda' ridiculous. Watched the whole thing through and I'm still not entirely sure how they did it.

Watching Yahtzee and Gabriel Let's Playing Curse of Enchantia. That game... I just... Don't... Know...

If it's any consolation, I'm in roughly the same situation as you, Jopax

[IronTomato]

Me three.

She's like me and doesn't really seem to hang around people, but the only opportunities I get to say anything are when there's tons of other people around, and I don't want it to become a big thing that people are going to be asking me about.

[pisskop]

But . . . but so what if they say things?  You do like these womens/mens.  People will know if they say yes, and if they say no.

:/  hunh.

So. . .It becomes a thing when you talk to em or...isn't this an assumption rather than a... prophecy? o_O
I mean, I don't see anything (to make huge matters about) if you talk to her. At all. Unless...its a thing to make matters out of it there?

[Sergarr]

Apparently dwarves now are clever enough to know when they can't break through a helmet.

It's scary.

Apparently if a dwarf is only armored by helmet, the enemies won't target the head even on unconscious target. What.

I'm assuming its cause people want to keep 'private' interactions like that... out of the gossip circles.

[Frumple]

There's... also a fairly significantly different social effect between asking someone out alone (or, maybe, with a friend or two of theirs) and asking them out in front of, y'know, a crowd, large group of friends, whatever. The lines of telephone able to be played in the latter scenario are much more numerous and widespread, and there's a significant difference in gossip manifestation as well. I mean, either's going to get out there but what the gossipmongering spreads about one is very different from what's probably going to happen with the other. The latter also puts all sorts of different pressures on the person you're asking, to boot.

It's definitely understandable why someone would much rather ask something like that person-to-person, y'know? It's a significantly different scenario.

[pisskop]

I now picture all my old exes and their friends playing the game telephone after I asked them out, whatever that meant at the time.

I should feel honored to take up such a large part of their time.

Realized that Asimov's world-spanning Multivac is present in some form in the complexity of our software :V
