    It has become necessary for me to electronize my books. I now avoid as much as possible the purchase of physical books. As a graduate student, moving from uni to uni, it is a hassle to move all these books. Plus, I'm running out of space to put them. Electronic is nice, especially because of the search function. On the kindle app, you can even change the page color to yellowish to make it easier on the eyes.

    I got a question for you guys, do you guys like long hair girls or short hair girls? Me personally

    long hair.
    Entirely depends. Some girls look good with short hair.

    The first important thing is to set up your profile pic, and you can't sound desperate so do not say please or thank you (in the messages). You have to come out

    assertive and yet not so aggressive. Honesty is important, but you should stretch that honesty just a little. Talk about your hobbies and what your majoring in

    since your in college, talk about how your exercise. um..... yeah I don't know after that.

    Simonyi, let me give you the worst advice ever: Be yourself!
    (But seriously, be yourself if you want a serious relationship)

    What, were we having that discussion before? I can't remember that.

    As above, depends on the girl really. Most girls have long hair anyways.

    Curly long hair, preferably blonde, red, or dark blonde, though brown looks nice and some look nice with dark hair. That's by far the best looking for a girl. Also light eyes and hair and skinny-ish, but not a twig. And a southern accent helps. Not that I have any room to be picky. EDIT: Also, Joseph, my advice would just be to be honest with the whole thing. Say that you're new to this, not really sure what you're doing, and have no idea what's going to happen, but you want to give it a try with a girl. If there's a girl on a dating site, my assumption is that she's probably in the same boat, and you'll endear yourself far more with manners (including please and thank you) and honesty than with hubris and pick up lines.

    He's lazy. Lately he's gotten a kind-of-job writing product descriptions. Ironically, he's not even close to Christian or charitable, and writes a lot of stuff for World Vision.

    @Spartan Oh yeah. Don't recall hair being discussed though, only their tits. Ahem.

    What are the chances that two people on a relatively quiet subforum on an American site for a relatively lesser known game in Ireland meet and are from the same smallish county?

    Yes I am from Cavan

    Hah, no way. That's class. Where abouts Cavan you from? I'm from near Arva, go to Carrigallen school. Yeah, that ain't in Cavan but hey.

    I've since moved to Cavan town, still go to Carrigallen though.
