Don't I know it. I like chatting with people online well enough, but I find it hard to connect in any lasting manner in person. At least for people I'm meeting strictly for friendship. I've made really good friends at work. It really helps to have that common (required) activity to encourage the interaction.

Captive audiences are the best!

This girl is into anything techy (goes through mobile phones like crazy), video games (actually has more than I), anime (again, more than I), comic books (I hardly read any), and film (I win here) in general.

She said she wanted to buy a slushy machine, but they are really expensive. I thought for a moment, and wondered out loud, what would happen if you put a sweet, water-based drink into an ice cream maker. Because a slushy machine is really just a freezer with a stirring paddle to keep large ice crystals from forming. I figure an ice cream maker could make one-off batches of slushies. I almost didn't speak the words, just kept the thought to myself, but once I said it, she thought it was a really neat idea.

I was going to get a Slush Puppie machine at one point, but I never got around to it. I was actually just thinking about it yesterday. It's my destiny.

You have to say that like Darth Vader.

I'm going to need help with the breathing.

Think of Princess Leia?

Good call.

Except it only made the sound of a lightsaber extending, not breathing.
