"My desire to be clever overrides anything"

In which we discuss all things flirting! What constitutes flirting? Is it fun? Are we good at it? Will it lead to WooHoo?

We begin with being excited about having Lucy in person! And biscotti with wine! It's a good day.

Side note: We are posting this in the midst of a global pandemic. However, we recorded this a couple years ago. Sorry it took us this long to get it out, but we hope you enjoy this blast back to simpler times.

What do you use flirting for?

For getting a date? For getting laid? For getting out of a parking ticket?

(We have never used it to get out of parking ticket. We aren't really sure how to go about that.)

Maisie knows that some people just have flirty sort of personalities, and she just doesn't understand how that works. How do people be flirty all the time? Kelly points out that they probably aren't even trying, or at least aren't trying to come off as flirting, it's just who they are.

Gina thinks she only successfully flirts as part of a group. She is not sure if she's flirting one on one, and it's often unintentional if she is. She more often tries to win over the group: a group seduce, for friend purposes!

Sissel specifically touches people to have sex. She doesn't like touching much otherwise.

Gina and Kelly really don't think of the chatting they do with someone they are interested in as flirting... But maybe it is.

Flirting with a Brick Wall

Hannah is very good at being witty and flirty. She would flirt with a brick wall and convince it to have sex with her if she could. We always use her to respond to our dating app connections. She's also been told on many an occasion that she's been flirting really hard with someone she thought she was just talking to...

So, what is the definition of flirting?

To flirt is to behave as though attracted to or trying to attract someone but for amusement rather than with serious intentions.Google

or...

To court triflingly or act amorously without serious intentions. Dictionary.com

So apparently the frivolity is key? Whodathunk! Certainly not the Throbbers, but we did quickly acquiesce to the accuracy of the definitions. You do think of it as light hearted...

If you are like Hannah, and think about things in the context of the Sims, flirting is one of the first steps to getting to the Woo Hooing! (aka sex).

Sims sidebar:

Back in the old days, there was a cheat to make your sims move, and you could move them while having sex to see what it looked like despite the Sims usually hiding under the covers. (It didn't look that exciting, sadly.)

At 11, all you know about sex is from the Sims and Neopets.

Did you know that Neopets was founded by Scientologists? Not Sissel!

Other sidebar: Gina's mic is really a limp dick during this recording... it's so sad.
