But sure, there's very little chance you'll actually get in trouble for it
    Yeah. Just, really, not at all a deterrent even in the slightest. At all. And I'm in CA. But I think the three-year buffer extends past 18, anyway.
    The "three year buffer" does not make it legal; it just makes it less of a crime.

    I know. I am going on ten consecutive rejections at the moment. I don't mind getting rejected. Not a big deal.

    My problems involve (1) interpreting signals/body language (2) reading people in an environment that is not a date (3) making any kind of phsyical move.

    Also, I don't want to taint a potential friendship/debate partnership with awkwardness thanks to my unwanted advances. That would be lame as hell.
    So your problem is that you have Aspergers and you're a huge pussy? Gotcha.

    That is a very concise and accurate way to sum up my problems, yes.

    He's from Turkey. Probably they slice "Arab" much thinner over there.

    Yeah, I'm 100% positive that my parents would not press charges and neither would I, so I really don't see the problem. I mean, my dad has all but flat-out told me to go get laid.

    Do you have noise-cancelling headphones you can put on? Or ear-plugs? Or a friend in a room farther away where you can sleep?

    P.S. Beer-pong is the most retarded, sophomoric pastime ever.

    Yeah. Irene has persuaded me to stop obsessing and just go and have a good time. If she expresses interest explicitly, I will not decline, to be sure, but I highly doubt that such a thing would happen. I'll probably just continue with the whole friend thing, and maybe ask her out sometime in the near future to go get food/see a movie or something similarly low-pressure and fun.

    My favourite game would have to be Circle of Death, Northern Ontario rules.

    Its hard to make it through even one game of that. Seriously towards the end its like "alright... and now you have to chug two beers. SUCKER"
