I also love how taking the clothes off a slave actually gives them clothes.
The slave outfit is a loincloth and a harness, but the placeholder clothes when you take a person's actual clothes (to keep people from being nekkid) is a t-shirt and boxer shorts.
So when you take their clothes away they're wearing more than they were when they were wearing clothes.
Okay, that makes 6/9 days that I've known this girl that we've hung out. Also super fun.
Go for it, Jim!
That is something I am debating in my mind!
well the only reason it's a debate and not a decision is because you have some doubts, concerns, or negative thoughts on the idea
so, let's here them, man
what's keeping you
I think basically I'm afraid I could be confusing interest with friendliness. She keeps inviting me to do things, but what if I ask, she's not interested and is kind of weirded out by it, and we stop hanging out? I'm having a lot of fun so I don't want to ruin that. On the other hand we don't have a lot of history yet so any awkwardness might pass quicker?
I wouldn't do anything cheesy or weird, I'd just ask her on a date plain and simple, which could also make it less weird if things go sour.
my suggestion is if you've got romantic intentions for this girl, move on it really soon
seriously
you want to do it now rather than after you've been friends for a while.
this isn't some kind ladder theory bullshit, i'm saying this because the longer you let it be that you're just friends, the cooler any initial romantic interest she may have for you right now is going to get, and the more attached both of you are going to get to the idea of being friends and how much you value your friendship.
if you try to make your move then, not only it will have a higher chance of being unsuccessful, it also risks ruining your friendship just for trying
you do it now, she could decline you early on, and you can move past it and still be friends after

EDIT: Which, by the way, has MegaRace and its sequel fuck yes
:shock: That's awesome. Man, I ran MegaRace back in the day on an old 386 with 2 megs of RAM and a 4x CD-ROM drive. It was...stuttery. Specifically I remember the opening movie would be jerky and go "Welcome to M-m-m-m-m-m-m-egaRace!" Which my friends thought was so hilarious that it is still a meme with us.
EDIT: I bet no one here knew that LA Law actually had a variant theme song that they would use for especially dramatic or sad episodes, where some of the horn riffs were replaced by violins.
Then I guess I need to figure out how and when to do it.
We're hanging out with friends tomorrow. If I do it then would it be best to wait until I leave?
She'll also be going on vacation for two weeks soon, so I figure I should do it before that, which gives me about three days to work with. Also recovery time if she says no.

Possibly some kind of live TV panel show.

The competition would be stiffer than you realise.
Snowball is probably the world’s most famous living parrot, with a Wikipedia entry to prove it. One clip of him on YouTube, a video-sharing website, has had over 2m hits. The sulphur-crested cockatoo’s claim to stardom is his ability to perform what looks decidedly like dancing (to the Backstreet Boys’ hit, “Everybodyâ€). It is an intriguing display but an aberrant one, as parrots have never been seen to dance in the wild. Nevertheless it may, according to Aniruddh Patel of the Neurosciences Institute in San Diego, shed light on the evolutionary origins of song and dance in people, too.
There are three main theories of the origins of singing and dancing. Two suggest they are functional—either serving to attract mates or fostering social cohesion and thus collaboration. The third, put forward recently by Dr Patel, says the whole thing is a glorious accident—the by-product of an evolved capacity for mimicking vocal cues, which humans have because that is how they learn to speak. This is a plausible explanation of singing, but how it might then lead to dancing (ie, a rhythmic movement of various parts of the body in time to the music) is obscure. Nevertheless, one possible test of Dr Patel’s hypothesis is to see if anything resembling dancing emerges in animals known to be vocal mimics, who are exposed to the rhythms of human music. (emphasis mine)
Dr Patel and his team have thus taken a close interest in Snowball, who has been residing at the Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service in Schererville, Indiana, since he was left there by his previous owners in 2007, along with a CD of his favourite music. The results of their research have just been published in Current Biology.
Their conclusion, after sophisticated statistical analysis to exclude the possibility of coincidence, is that Snowball really is dancing. If a song’s tempo is changed without changing its pitch, his head-bobbing and leg-lifting change time to match. And they are not alone in this conclusion. Adena Schachner of Harvard University and her colleagues have also been studying this psittacine prodigy and they, too, have just published their findings in Current Biology. (emphasis mine)
Broadly, they endorse Dr Patel’s conclusion that Snowball is jiving to the beat. They have also found a similarly talented African grey parrot, and conducted the same experiments on that. But they went further than Dr Patel by trying to persuade cotton-top tamarins, a species of monkey, to learn to dance as well. They failed, as Dr Patel’s theory predicted they would, because tamarins—although very vocal—are not mimics.
Further investigation on YouTube, by Dr Schachner, has turned up 33 video clips of animals with Snowball-like talents. All told, there are 14 types of parrot in these video clips, all species well-known for vocal mimicry, and one elephant. That elephants are vocal mimics is less widely known, but it has recently been established scientifically.
Whether any of this truly endorses Dr Patel’s hypothesis is moot. Since none of the species looked at is known to dance in the wild, and all are known vocal mimics, it does suggest that vocal mimicry somehow provokes dance-like behaviour when an individual is exposed to a rhythmic sound. But, though there is no disputing Snowball’s talent, that is not proof.

You see where I'm going with this.
I missed breakfast at home today, so I was hoping of grabbing something on the way in. Grabbing on the way in became an epic hunt.
