I wouldn't mind looking older. Not that much older, but a couple years (upwards of 5) would be fine. Maybe later that will change, but for now I'm alright.

Ever so humble. Seeing as you have such a preference for the process of understanding technical jargon, what's your bitch?

I unno maybe your thinking too much. Being attracted to someone or having someone attracted to you really isn't a matter of specifics. Its usually a pretty simple natural flow of things.

Worked for my last anthro mid term. Had to know all of the anthro theories (evolutionism functionalism etc) but I didn't know crap about linguistics. That was the other half of the test. So I practised using the whole buzzwords thing and ended up with a suave 96%. Its nice because if you know atleast a little bit about the topics the buzzwords can guide you immensly.
That's a good idea. I know a few people who work like that, in addition to straightforward reading.

O(ld ladies know nothing about sound. Yesterday, I was working with the tech crew setting up a rehearsal show for a choir made up of old hags and creepy old men and the director was a huge wrinkled bitch to us. First off, I was up on stage setting up the mics and they started telling me to get out of the way even though they specifically asked me to set up the mics and put them on stage. I then managed to drop all eight of the mic stands on my foot, and I ended up tangling the XLR cable after attempting to pick the mic stands back up.

when I finally dealt with the mics, the old lady solo singers started getting mad at me because they couldn't hear themselves sing. I then told them that I didn't set up the stage monitors and they didn't listen and they just told me to turn the speakers up. I told them that increasing the gain would start giving us feedback and out of spite I cranked the gain anyways. after they got annoyed with the feedback, they told me to turn it down again and then bitched again because it was too quiet. From the audiences perspective, it was the perfect volume but they didn't seem to get that.

then they started bitching at the lighting guy and we all agreed that the director was a bitch and didn't understand the limitations of our system. I have to deal with these stupid hags again tomorrow on sunday. they better be less bitchy or I'm gonna flip.
