    I know. There was one time I was invited to a party, but I didn't wanna go for this reason. I couldn't drink since I was on a diet at the time, and they said you don't have to drink to have fun. Well guess what happened...

    You're going about this the wrong way. I need a body at the desk. The computer doesn't even really need to be on, though having visual studio up and running would help the illusion.
    Buy a mannequin. Actually I'd recommend a sex doll, since that way you can use it for other things.
    At that point I think I would be worried if the illusion were successful.

    This strikes me as a fantastic website - anonymous questions are us. A group of people who agree to exchange their problems with supervisors anonymously and supply an email address. I guess you could automate this sort of thing, but I think the appeal would be in writing the email by the other person and feeling like you're sticking it to the man.

    Make it a named service that's a glorified webmail server. You type in the e-mail address of the person and a message. The site handles the sending and whatever so it's truly anonymous and doesn't keep any records or saves any addresses (Yours or the recipients).

    Of course, this is just asking for abuse, but it could be done without violating privacy.

    Last time I was sober at a party full of drunks my roommate's inebriated younger sister wouldn't stop flirting with me even though her brother was sitting right next to me.

    It was a little uncomfortable.

    Alcohol and partying.

    I had a dream last night that I was supposed to go clubbing with my aunt. Who is middle-aged. And overweight. And has Chrohn's and had part of her intestine removed at one point. And so now always has one of those ... bags taped to her.

    If I really went clubbing with her I'd be too afraid of bumping into it. D:

    Also the fact she's middle-aged, married, and related to me.

    I've spent the last 15 years being The Sober Guy. I've gotten pretty used to it.

    It does help to have at least one other at-least-partly-sober person, though. Someone to both point and laugh at the really really drunk, and someone to help you pull that really really drunk person out of the coffee table after they fall through it.
