would it be wrong to vandalize the wikipedia entry to include "watching tv" cuz imo that is the obvious missing option.

― ian, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 05:35 (fifteen years ago)

The only thing off that list that I REALLY miss is not sleeping alone.

While watching TV I usually stop to enjoy the fact that I'm alone, b/c that means NO COMPROMISE on my viewing choices, pausing the movie to smoke, anything.

Being single means never having to defend the third hour (in a row) of that home organization show.

because it's the one thing you look really stupid doing alone.

Physical intimacy because that includes like half the other ones?

― Pedro Paramore (jim), Friday, 30 October 2009 00:02 (fifteen years ago)

i'm pretty sure they just mean "fucking" when they say "physical intimacy."

― ian, Friday, 30 October 2009 02:21 (fifteen years ago)

btw pleased to note that "watching television" is still included in the wikipedia article for "romance (love)"

― ian, Friday, 30 October 2009 02:22 (fifteen years ago)

gotta go with dancing

― Bobby Wo (max), Friday, 30 October 2009 02:24 (fifteen years ago)

i really must remove these physically intimate snakes from this physically intimate plane

― Yo, Lout! (darraghmac), Friday, 30 October 2009 02:24 (fifteen years ago)

i'm pretty sure they just mean "fucking" when they say "physical intimacy."

see, i thought that "sleeping together" meant "fucking" and that "physical intimacy" was just general physically intimate stuff - like cuddling, wrestling, or picking pieces of lint out of each other's hair.

i took sleeping together as meaning actually sleeping together though

― Yo, Lout! (darraghmac), Friday, 30 October 2009 02:29 (fifteen years ago)

you're probably right - i just think there should be a category that includes simian-like mutual grooming

― missed the announcement, lay down in a ditch and pretended to be dead (sarahel), Friday, 30 October 2009 02:32 (fifteen years ago)

that's the beauty of wikipedia, from whence i drew the list: just edit that shit and call it a day!

― ian, Friday, 30 October 2009 02:33 (fifteen years ago)

simian-like mutual grooming is one of the best things about being in a relationship tbh
