Competition
3.11.02 – Yeti to enter contest? Joe: Yeti just had a
great idea for your contest: he wants to enter Nate
Shupe. But
he doesn't wanna talk to him, ‘cause
he hates Shupe.
So I guess that’s an invalid entry. Another date set up: Joe: Phil said, “Okay,
I'm intrigued,” but it would have to be next week, over break. This is horribly amusing. Erika: I’m coming home
next Friday. Joe: Phil said pick a
day for the date. Phil will be home Friday
or Monday; he’s not sure yet. Phil
[To Joe]: She's actually
kind of cute, and what she has to say in the disclaimer gains a thumbs up. You're
not setting me up with someone who's on crack, right? [Later] Phil: Ah, so she can
be fun and she can be reserved. I like
that. Joe: I feel like I
struck gold with Phil. I shoulda thought of him first. Erika: What’s the fun
and reserved thing? Joe: He was like, “What’s
she like?” And I’m like, “Um, crazy
and fun to be around, but she’s also civil, depends on who she’s around.” And he’s like, “Nice.” What do you talk about? I don't have all the answers for him! Erika: You can give him
my SN if you want. Joe: Ok. He'll IM you, I think. Erika: Does he know
about the contest and that the date will be reviewed online? Joe: Yeah, I sent him
a link to the site; he’s stoked! Phil: Well, I
certainly hope I can give you a half decent date. I don't do a whole lot of it, on account of
I hate the silly games people play. And
I think we can relate on an intellectual level, which definitely gleans a
thumbs up. Erika: Yes, games do
suck Phil: But, from your
website, I gather you feel in a similar way. Erika: How do you mean? Phil: Well, the two of
us both enjoy reading and writing. And
we can communicate, which is hard to do, given the abundance of stupid people
that populate the internet. Erika: …and the world. Phil: To a larger
extent, yes. Erika: Now, your break
is next week? Phil: Yes. Yours, too? Erika: Hmm, no. I’ll be coming home that Friday. Phil: Want to do the
date that Friday then? Which would be
my birthday, which could be kinda weird, but I'm
all for it. Erika: Ok, I should be
home by 6. Phil: Well, I can give
you my cell phone number and my home number, and we can talk. Erika: Ok. People going crazy: Erik: Is it possible
to enter Steve twice? Erika: Yes. Erik: Sweet. Course this means I gotta
plan somethin’, unless I partner with Paula. It will be diabolical. Erika: Paula doesn’t
know Erik: She can give me
ideas though. It’s just a matter of
who can plan better in the most probable case: Erica and Nathan or Paula and
me, a little. Erika: Well, it's also
up to Steve, if he wants to be entered twice. Erik: That could be a
problem, I have a feeling he's going to win.
So if he enters only once, then I lose. Erika: You people are
going crazy! Erik: Going? Hey, I took this seriously since day
1. Bah, you know you enjoy watching us
go crazy. More Joe madness: Joe: Ok, I think I
know this 1 other guy from Erika: Ok. Is that a problem? Joe: No, that’s not a
problem. Erika: Ok, Phil. Joe: I'll have to
talk to him. He’s sleeping now. |
