In a pre-internet age, the best way for young guys who had problems finding love to meet other guys with the same problem was to ask the question "Hey dude, do you play Magic: The Gathering?" The community has become marginally more sophisticated since then and the term "incel" (involuntary celibacy) was born. "Involuntary Celibacy?" you ask, "isn't that a really irritating way to say that you can't get laid and pretend like it's a political group?" Well, welcome to love-shy.com, there's gonna be a whole lot of that kind of thing here. This week, The F Plus gets off just looking at each other.

[Runic]

An incel episode? Oh, you guys know just what I like!

I think the readings might be taking over poor Lemon :(

E: I thought one of the classic traits of Aspergers is the inability to recognize the "fuck-off signal"

[Goose Goose Honk At Me Now]

I want a Friend Zone in my apartment, but none of the rooms will accomodate a trampoline.

EDIT:

E: I thought one of the classic traits of Aspergers is the inability to recognize the "fuck-off signal"

Honestly, it depends on the person with Asperger's. Some can recognize a body language "fuck-off signal" but not a tone-of-voice one, and vice versa. Yes, difficulty with body language, facial expression, and tone of voice are pretty classic traits, but they don't always all exist at the same time in the same person.

I just want to say that Magic: the Gathering has gotten me laid before

Hello there.

I want to hear this story immediately.

Stop whatever you're doing right now and share, separate thread optional.

"Sorry guys. It took me so long to respond because I was GETTING LAID.

[TheCrawlingChaos]

Anyhoo, my final verdict: slightly less infuriating and slightly more pitiable than the MRAs, but not as funny on average as the PUAs.

[NutshellGulag]

Please stop talking about your sex lives, even tangentially. Thanks.

[TheCrawlingChaos]

Please stop talking about your sex lives, even tangentially. Thanks.

Sorry, my bad.

[chai tea latte]

Yeah sorry about that. It's not a very interesting story, anyway. Lemon, I'll pm you if you like, but I think NutshellGulag has the right idea.

[Lemon]

You realize it doesn't have to be real, right? I'm not going to do any due diligence in verification here, but the idea of a Magic The Gathering game ending with sexy results sounds remarkable

[Lemon]

Update: Kal-Elk PM'd me the story, and I want you to know that the prudishness in you just cheated you out of hearing the words "Strip Magic The Gathering Trivia" in context.

Meanwhile, back in the land of things that aren't incredibly dull, this episode was pretty rad. The whole DATING MACHINE thing felt like the author of Moon People attempting to somehow quantify or explain human interaction.
