OT-How Long To Call?

Thought about the first one already--I don't know if I have enough spite for it. But the brown eyes thing would be like a dagger http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/smile.gif

That is classic, especially after the last one became so much work at the end.
I just am not that evil. I wish I were that evil however, it would feel pretty damn good!

Grind her nose in it. She will see both of her "castoffs" (no offense C-Town) getting hot and heavy with new loves. She will ponder her faults, and maybe change for the better. Then again, maybe not but at least you are helping her in a sick, twisted sort of way. And tell her to stop calling you, as it could wreck your new relationship. They hate that!

Exercise your right to spite!

Fritz, have you ever considered writing a book? Better yet, maybe a late night cable call in show. This stuff is priceless.



I like the call in cable show, I could be the anti-[insert sensitve woman tv-personality here].

A nugget just for you: My college room mate had this line he would pull out whenever an ex would argue with him in public. He would say "How can you argue with me when my [Male Member] has been in your mouth."

The shock from that would always cause the ex to turn beet-red just before she slunk off.

[Fritz]

dola.

Asa favor to one of your friends you should tell her "this is hard, but at least your are not sleeping with [friend]. I don't know if I could take that." See how long it takes for [friend] toget a hookup.

Now if [friend] has herpes it gets even better...

[Da Bears Fan]

CTown-Fan-

I know exactly what you mean. My ex and I still talk more than I wish we did, but I recently told her I was dating again too. Pissed her off something horrible and she was very concerned that we might have slept together...and that was that. I was like, "geez, I am not a priest." and "even if I do sleep with her, I am not going to tell you."

I don't think it is spiteful...more of like closure.

[ctmason]

I agree with some of the above.

My ex and I didn't speak to one another for two months. Not because she didn't call, but because I didn't return calls, and had no interest in speaking to her.

I've been perfectly nice to her but she continues to call about once a week. My mom actually had a good insight into it.

1) Realizes she was wrong (highly unlikely)

OR

2) Has a new boyfriend and wants to keep me on the line figuring she can reel me in if it doesn't work out.

Either way, I'm sick of girl games, have no interest in it. I know I'm repeating myself but the three months we've been broken up have been tons better than the two years we were together.

That's really sad now that I read that. Oh well.

[sachmo71]

Hindsight is 20/20 brotha. Believe me, I've stuck it out at times and later wondered WTF I was doing. Relationships take work, this is true, but you shouldn't feel like you are constantly in pain. No one is worth that.

No, but I promise you I will rent it after I get back from my trip to Boston. I will also rent Bronx Tale (which was also recommended).

You all have to the rent The Myth of Fingerprints. An excellent movie . . . Um, have you ever like noticed, that when you get too much mustard on a sandwich, it becomes a mustard sandwich?

Is Ellethree a man?

You have called always refered to Ellethree as a her. Is she a he/her? A she-male? A 1/2 Tranny?

Since you asked.........

Ok, so I got there a few minutes early, she asked me to wait while she finished getting ready. Then she said the words that will make you all quite jealous.
[dramatic pause]
"Do you want to go play softball for an hour" Evidently she was on her dorm team and they asked her to play. So for the first hour of the date I played IM softball for a dorm team at Case. It was most excellent, except for the ball, which was oversized and was actually soft. It was really different from the medium pitch serious UMaine softball.

Anyway, after the game we went to a local bar and watched the second half of the basketball game while drinking Guinness (to answer ohmslaw's question). So there http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/tongue.gif

Anyhow, I had an amazing time. I won't bore you all with the details of the rest of the date, other than to say it was wonderful. I really like this woman.

Likes softball? Wants to drink the dark stuff and watch roundball?

She is a he, or a half he.

For the love of God, man. Does she like powdered doughnuts!!!! Why are we made to wait???

[Fritz]

If we assume Ctown went home to post his report after the date, we know he was home by 1:35AM Eastern. The Game was over by 11:30PM the night before.

We can guess that it takes him 30 min to get home.

Ctown - how do you account for those 1.5 hours?

[Ctown-Fan]

Originally posted by Fritz:

Simple. We left the bar at about 11:45 (15 minutes)
Drove back to her place (5 minutes)
Chatted in the car, making plans for this weekend and stuff (20 minutes) http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/smile.gif
I left, made a wrong turn ended up by the Jake (15 minutes)
Completed the drive home (40 minutes)

There you go. Fritz, after watching her play softball, I can gaurentee she is a she. CTM, I don't know about the powdered donughts...sorry, maybe I'll ask her this weekend.

Hope that satisfies your curiosity......

I guess C-Town is a love-making machine. 1.5 hours?? Holy macarel.

OR...

The game ends at approximately 11:30 EST, but C-Town decides to hang around for another Guinness. Why? Because he wants to show his sensitive side by watching "One Shining Moment" and getting teary-eyed.

[Dr. Seuss moment]11:50 EST - C-Town and ThreeElle leave the bar and head for the car. It wasn't too far...Look!!...a shooting star![/Dr. Seuss Moment]

12:00 EST - They've been on the road for 10 minutes now and C-Town is thinking about how perfect the night has been. They saw a shooting star for crying out loud!! It has been completely perfect.

12:10 EST - Minutes before arriving at 3-L's dorm, she asks C-Town if he will want to come in. He accepts. [C-town's thoughts] Haha...screw Wilzone and the rest of those idiots. 100-1 odds my ass. 3-L is getting a good time tonight. Oh yeah!!! [/C-town's thoughts]

12:12 EST - Suddenly a cop car pulls C-Town over. He gets a breathalyzer, registers a BAC of .2 and is immediately arrested.

12:48 EST - 3-L is forced to gather all of her money and gets C-Town out of jail. She tells him that she knows some good lawyers that will help him if he would like.

12:55 EST - They catch a cab to her dorm. C-town asks: "Am I still allowed to come in?" 3-L replies: "Uh, I think I'll pass...it's been a long night. Goodbye."

1:00 EST - C-town gets home and is left to blame the Guinness for his horrible night.

1:15 EST - He logs onto the computer to pretend as though everything was perfect.

Better luck next time C-town.

[sachmo71]

Bah. Good going C-Town. DONT SCREW IT UP! http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/smile.gif

[Fritz]

Or (Borrowing from heavily from Wilzone)

The game ends at approximately 11:30 EST, but C-Town decides to hang around for another Guinness and a shot of Jaeger. Why? Because he wants to show his sensitive side by watching "One Shining Moment" and getting teary-eyed, not to mention Sh*t-Faced.

11:50 EST - C-Town goes to take a piss for the 15th time this evening. ThreeElle's thinking "what a dork, he even missed the white kid from Duke making all those buckets." While "tucking in" Ctown zips the frank and one bean. Now he knows why his mom made him have a velcro fly on his parchute pants.

12:00 EST - Ctown comes out of the can dripping with sweat. ThreeElle has been talking with a burn victim with a serious speech impediment in the corner and has hardly missed Ctown. Ctown says "grab yer stuff sweet cheeks, its time to get you home.

12:10 EST - Minutes before arriving at 3-L's dorm, she asks C-Town if he will want to come in. He accepts. [C-town's thinks out loud] Haha...screw Wilzone and the rest of those idiots. 100-1 odds my ass. 3-L is getting a good a$$ pounding tonight. Oh yeah!!! [/C-town's thinks out loud]

12:11 EST - Ctown realizes he just said that out loud.

12:12 EST - ThreeElle sprays him with mace and runs into the dorm, hitting the campus police "panic button" as she runs.

12:29 EST - As ThreeElle watches from behind safety glass, the campus police run up on Ctown and beat him billy clubs.

12:45 EST - The campus police stop beating Ctown and vanish as quickly as they arrived.

12:50 EST - Ctown hobbles up to the dorm door, where ThreeElle is frozen in fright. Ctown says, "I had a great time tonight, do you want to get together this weekend? ThreeElle shrieks and runs upstairs.

1:05 EST - C-town gets home and is left to blame the Guinness for his horrible night. Looking down he notices the "bean" is still poking out.

1:15 EST - He logs onto the computer to pretend as though everything was perfect.

Better luck next time C-town.

I like your piece better Fritz.

At least I provided the "Mad Libs" foundation for your masterpiece. You just filled in the blanks with hilarious additions. I have to admit that the "pulled over by police" bit wasn't great...I think that that the "thinking out loud, being sprayed with mace and being beaten by campus police for 16 minutes" was much more exciting. It sounds like C-town had some bad luck.

Wilzone - I cracked up when read your version. It inspired me, but I am too lazy to be original.

Don't feel bad for Ctown, either version would be "getting lucky" for him.

Zoiks, that is great news.

OK, a couple of things and I will promise to stop bragging. We got onto the topic of British television. Turns out she is a hugh Benny Hill fan, and has the script to The Holy Grail, with all the edited stuff.

Her tennis shoes reek like they are actually used for sports based activities. Which while not pleasing to the nose, is good for the soul.

The only negative so far, she enjoys shopping for clothes.

Her tennis shoes reek like they are actually used for sports based activities. Which while not pleasing to the nose, is good for the soul.

Only two minor points about this. First, why the hell was Ctown smelling her shoes? Secondly, was she wearing them while he smelt them or was he just sneaking a whiff when she wasn't looking?

The only negative so far, she enjoys shopping for clothes.

I don't see this as a negative at all - you need some reassurances that she's normal. With so many cool habits (like the pointing and giggling and the Softball), you want to <em>know</em> for sure that there's dainty femininity in the mix. I mean, you need to know that she's not all action and might turn out to be some kind of dominatrix or something. That would be bad.

Wilzone (See Above) has the same angle as me on this one (I think).

Well, I guess no one is perfect.

Is it just me, or does this feel like when Egon Spengler "confessed" he got a 99 on an exam once in school but didn't tell his folks about it?

USNY: It goes from my love life to me? Harrumph! Anyhow, you must think it is worth 295 (because that is where you put it with that reply).

Morgado, I have yet to check to see if she likes the movie Spaceballs or Major League for that matter . . .
I didn't try to smell the shoes! She warned me before we drove over to the game, and yes they were rather stinky (I guess they are five years old).
I guess you are right. However, I am still a buy a book and sit on a bench in the mall kind of shopper.
Yes, I definatly think she is worth 295 posts. We will find out more this weekend as we have a pair of dates. Friday I am going to a "lawyer party" with her. And then on saturday she is meeting up with my laywer friends after we go to the Indians game, for a night in the Flats. Should be a fun weekend.

Petro, bring it on little man. I'll just make sure my guys drag bunt down the first base line and nail your pitchers as they try to field the ball.

I say Excalibur because Excalibur was the perfect sword. It was believed unattainable by most but desired by all because whoever could make Excalibur his would be King.

C'mon, she plays softball, watches hoops, giggles at nudie pictures, drink Guiness, and loves the Simpsons. The only way she could be more Excalibur-like is if after their next date Ctown were to write something like this:

I go to pick her up, but when she opens the door, she is wearing nothing but a smile. In one hand she has a plate holding 2 fresh-baked, home-made calzones; in the other hand she is holding an advanced copy of TCY.

hmmmm...foot-ball, cal-zones, boo-bies... (drool)

I can see it now. The stereo's playing the Perry Mason theme, you have to sign a waiver before you get a beer, and the party activities include dancing exactly 1.5 feet apart, playing "Shepardize the Obscure Case," and competing for the "Best Johnnie Cochrane Impression" prize.

[Upstate_New_York]

The good stuff happens around post 516, Wilzone.

The sappy stuff generally begins at 532 (and doesn't it always?).

Then, the near breakup and heartfelt Tom Hanksish-Meg Ryanish makeup happens between posts 634-648.

The overly presumptuous first marriage conversation flares it's ugly head around 689, unless the good natured do-you-want-kids question predates it by ten or twenty posts, in which case, hold off on the marriage conversation until 693.

Somewhere in the 800s Petrochile submits to the fact that this OT far surpasses his wildest OT dreams... that he is unworthy... and that the Lord has mocked him again.

The actual marriage invitations are sent between posts 1,289 to 1,301.

Wilzone, you take the calzone order for the wedding reception around the 1400s.

But then again,I really should stop here. Don't want to get too far ahead of myself...

Ctown-Fan:

I only read your initial post, not any of the replies, so if what I have to say has been said or is out of line, I apologize.

You wrote that she is a law student. If that is the case, here is my timeframe for you to call her:

NEVER!!!!!!

As a lawyer who married (& divorced) a fellow law student, I can tell you that female lawyers are not ideal marriage material. For that matter, neither are male ones.

I know it's too early to be thinking about marriage, but you gotta consider the future. The divorce rate among lawyers is astronomical. I did my part to help.

Even just for dating, 1L's are quite possibly the most annoying creatures on the planet. I know: I was one. Everything is a "tort," they constantly spout legal theory, and they claim they have to study and read all the time, which is a crock.

I'm really sorry to piss in yo' cornflakes like this. I'm just trying to keep others from suffering like I did. Feel free to ignore/flame me.

I will do neither, everyone gets their fair response. Yes, I was dating an L1 "she was an english grad student when we met" soon after she moved to Iowa for law school we split and I do know what you are talking about.

L3 on the other hand is a 3rd year law student (obviously) and is going into the MBA program in the fall.

I also have several other ex girlfriends that are lawyers/law students . . . I do know what I am getting myself into. http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/frown.gif

I do thank you for your advice even it I am repeating mistakes of the my past, your past and the past of everyone else who has dated/married a lawyer.

[WebEwbank]

Well, I just read the entire goldarn thread, and one thing is ab-so-lutely clear to me. Ctown is sandbagging by asking for help from you guys; he is actually a gold-plated gigolo with multiple merkins hanging from his rearview mirror. His pace throughout has been perfect, professional, and I expect him to attain his goal within the next 10 days. I am a bit troubled by the meatless angle, as protein and stamina are closely linked. However, enough tofu can bridge this gap.

One word :Broccoli!

Well that and peanut butter!

Anyhow, web I just got back from your town. One question . . . can you get anywhere without having to make a u-turn?

[Fritz]

Ctown,

If you cover her with Peanut Butter doesn't the Broccoli get stuck? Or is that the idea?

How does this improve your stamina?

If the broccoli proves to be too large and bruises her I suggest switching to LeSuer Peas. They are small and soft.

[This message has been edited by Fritz (edited 04-06-2001).]

I don't think anything should be small and soft when you are talking about sex. Just an opinion, of course...but you may be into that sort of thing.

Ctown, scratch Peas and use Garbonzo and Pinto Beans. They have protien as well!

Those Le Seur (sp ?) peas are frozen, baby.

I have visions of the progeny of CT and 3L (charming, happy, attractive, well-adjusted little people) reading this some day, tracking us all down and beating us with broccoli and coating us with peanut butter.

Happy visions.

[Ctown-Fan]

Yeah, Web I thought about that . . .

I was in town for a wedding. Drove from Cleveland to Natick overnight. Was up for the wedding some 36 straight hours and then slept and drove back. I would have, however, made time to visit while I was there.

by the way, beware of tofu (and other soja based products). Testing has "shown" (nothing definitive, but why take chances) that excessive consumption of tofu leads to brain dammage/alzheimer etc. They have some scientific theory on why, I will try to dig up an article.

Life gets a lot less "interesting" when you get married. Im my case, the spouse has hard time seeing the moment for what it is worth. [this should not be read as a complaint, just reality]

When you're single, kitchen utensils may be great fun, but after marriage they're just for cooking. [imagine a sad smiley here]

But I can still egg the single guys on!

We will find out more this weekend as we have a pair of dates. Friday I am going to a "lawyer party" with her. And then on saturday she is meeting up with my laywer friends after we go to the Indians game, for a night in the Flats. Should be a fun weekend.

I was actually Stateside (CHI 2001 conference in Seattle, WA) last week and missed out on the latest development. But now I've read through this entire thread. Way to go! But what happened?

I will definitely let you know about the calzones.

I just stumbled across this website: www.calzone.com (http://www.calzone.com)

Here's the funny thing. They are an advertising company....they claim to have no connection to calzones. I think this calzone thing is catching on all over the place.

I even heard that Cinemax is coming out with a mafia drama to compete with the critically-acclaimed "Sopranos." "The Calzone Clan" will be premiering next month on Cinemax. Danny Devito stars as Franco Calzone while Roseanne gets the nod as his wife. Some other "large" celebrities are said to be on the cast as well. Entertainment Weekly says it is a "delicious new drama." The Washington Post says that it will "leave every viewer drooling over the Calzone family."

In school (before we had caller ID) I would tell girls my name was Julio Hernandez. I was even listed in the phonebook as Julio.

The point it, never give 'em your real name number or address. Never EVER.

Was she looking to love and leave you? Or did she like you? This is the important question to ask. I say promptly forget about her . . . If she calls then you will be pleasently surprised http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/smile.gif

If she doesn't call, then you have already forgotten about her and you won't remember to be disappointed that she didn't call.

Or maybe she was laughing at my incredibly bony butt. Or maybe she found out my abnormal obsession with Charlotte Church... uh, I think I'm saying too much.

Upstate 21:69

"The Psalm of THE Post"

Lo, then morning came on March the 3rd, 2001 and the Lord spoketh to the world that there would be written a posting in the land of such perportions so as to give men pause and to maketh the girls weak in the knees. To ease the troubles of lost souls and hopeless libidos, from fingers of the prophet Ctown-Fan came a message to make men's minds wonder: "How Long To Call?".

From afar the responses came and went and filled the afore mentioned post with hope and joy, ever drawing more attention in the hope that through heavenly means the prophet Ctown would win the heart of a young lass and woo her to such an extent as to make the sheep as docile as lambs - and muster the shepherds not to thinketh any longer of nasty thoughts.

But the time extended futher and further and the post refused to die. Yea, longer than the patience of many of the FOF faithful. But Ctown did quell their anger with good thoughts, and he did give them fruitful updates on his noble quest, and he entertained the downtrodden with festive dances of joy - not unlike those of Sammy Davis Jr.

Soon miracles were reported by newcomers to the post: Broken bones healed themselves in the post's holy presence and impotant men were blessed with potency anew. Evil mens' minds were unbent. Water was made to be wine. The lame were pronounced hip and all your base did belongeth to us. And although they did not understand, the newcomers did readeth and smile with delight.

The joy continued until May of 2003, when the ten-thousandth poster did crash the system and the world erupted into flame. So sayeth the Lord.

I know why you really posted that last post! <IMG SRC="wink.gif" border="0">

[Mota]

I'm one of the lucky ones to read this from the beginning this past week.
Ctown made a remark on the 2nd page about how this thread deserves 500 posts.

I think we owe it to him, don't we?

[Nancy of JSB]

As long as this thread is, my question is was this call finally made? Cause I hope that making the call really isn't taking as long as this thread is.

Hmm... I think this thread has outlived it's usefulness and humor. This thread has been good and has been fun in the past... but it's gone now.

Ctown sounds upset. We should oblige him and let this Frankenstien's Monster of a thing go.

[heatman]

Oh yes!

[Senator]

A good example of getting more than you bargained for.

Sorry C-Town - this threads going to 1000!

[Ryan S]

I have noticed that this thread has now turned into a bunch of people desperate to post just for the sake of posting in this thread, and talk of Ctowns lovelife disappeared about 7 pages ago.

On a related note, this is my first post in this topic. <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

[sachmo71]

Why is C-town upset? I refuse to go back and try and find out...did something bad happen with the law student? Did she (*gasp!*) see this thread?

[Ctown-Fan]

No sachmo71,

It is just annoying to see people contiunously post on this tread just to post on it. It outlived its purpose and the day I posted that I was in quite a surly mood. Anyhow, that is the reason I said that, no other. That is also why I have posted no updates (one way or the other) in several weeks . . .

[ 05-07-2001: Message edited by: Ctown-Fan ]

[sachmo71]

Then lets have an administrator CLOSE THE TOPIC! If C-town is tired of it, and it's making him mad, that's as good of a reason as any to close it! No more posts from me...

[simms34]

You know, I swore I wasn't going to post in this thread, but....

Ctown, if you're really sick of seeing this thread (and I don't doubt that you are), you know you can simply edit your first post, click "Delete", and the whole thing will disappear.

Unless of course you want it saved for posterity for some reason....

Wow... just like out of The Wizard of Oz. Click your delete together a few times, say "There's no place like home" and Ctown will wake up in Kansas, and this entire thread will seem as if it were a dream.

I say go for it.

[lurker]

What do you guys say we bring this up?


Ah, this thread is the epitome of why I lurked....fond memories


Sorry Ctown <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0">, but it might save the board from becoming a complete terror.

I am a patient man. I had never seen this thread before (a bit before my time) and after this post i wanted to jump out of my chair with a response, but surely in the next 18 pages, someone would make my point for me...but No! <IMG SRC="confused.gif" border="0">

you called at 8 & 9!!!

never, ever, ever call on the hour! It makes it look like you thought 'i'll call at 8' and called at like 8.01PM alerting her to the fact that the call was obviously planned. Even if you've plotted a call for days, with a huge flow chart instructing you on what to do for every possible turn the conversation might take, don't blow your cover by calling on the hour!!

Do suave, playing-it-cool, non-obsessive guys call on the hour? NO. They're spontaneous, they don't call at 8 and 9, they call at 7.42 and 8.16.


Beyond that point, i was really surprised at the turn this thread took, with C-town getting seemingly pissed off and completely unwilling to give us even a vague sense of how anything worked out. What seemes like the most straight-forward plot ended up being less coherent than a David Lynch directed film.

So, a year later....what's up with 3L?


Corey

[NoMyths]

Ctown IS David Lynch.

3L is now in NoMyths' stable of hookers.

Corey's advice is damned wise.

[Ctown-Fan]

If i remember, the 8 and 9 was just an economy of typing--but I probably did call roughly an hour apart.

3L and I didn't work out, and I found out later it was a good thing. Months later, I was at an Indians game with a lawyer buddy of mine and we ran into some of her friends, all happened to be Case Grads. They knew her, and told some stories that I wasn't to impressed with--so I guess that is a good thing that it didn't work out....

Since then there was a Librarian (MLS from UT), the college senior (eat your hearts out), the random little (22) sister of a friend--that was awakward--and not much else.

My old strategy of of wearing down their defenses through repeated meetings doesn't work so well in the bar/pub scene, and I still don't have the hang of this whole calling thing. However, I am still plugging away. After having three long term relationships, and watching my friends in long termers, I have to wonder "why the hell should I go through this hassle?" Then I remember, it's all about the breasts.

Hopefully, that has brought the closure that Chris and some others have wanted . . .speaking of which, I'll need to get my mack on again this weekend <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

[cthomer5000]

thanks for the followup ctown, i think that's all the closure i needed. You should followup with some wise phrase about 'the road less travelled' or something and then the thread can disappear forever.

bump ... I posted a link to this for SunDancer (thanks Sachmo!), but I figured this would be a humorous bump for the rest of the newer members. I know I laughed my ass off when I first came across this classic.

[Shkspr]

The tricks your mind plays on you as you get older are amazing.

Take this thread, for example. I remember the thread being huge, almost unreadable, even. I remember it being this infinitely-headed hydra of a topic that dwarfed the fortitude of even the most devoted FOFCer to read. I remember having to write down thread page numbers on little scraps of paper to make sure I knew which page to pick up the discussion on.

::shrug:: Turns out the damned thing was only ten pages long.

[craptacular]

Remember, SkyDog recently changed it to 50 posts per page now, so it used to be 20 pages long.

Since my last girlfriend and I split (Jan 7 http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/frown.gif ) this has been the longest dry spell, without "dating" someone, for me in eight years.

Tonight was a first for me, all my girlfriends have come from "academic" interactions (No actual dating, but spending a lot of time together before starting a relationship).

Anyhow, I got a phone number from this really cool 1L (1st year Law Student) from Case Western at a bar tonight (Damn, that took a lot of guts--or maybe it was the Gunniess http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/smile.gif ). Luck of the 4th gen Irish I guess. But what would people suggest about how soon I should call? This is after all new territory for me.

My friends all suggested that I give her a call on monday--and this seems about right. Any suggestions?
