h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Nevermind - you can return to it whenever you like - it's just up a tad on this thread (under the QQ Night brand)!

Here's a QQ question. Not sure if it's out of place on H2G2 but ...

What is the optimum number of friends of the opposite sex for someone to have ? I once dated a woman every Monday, and she had a regular date with three other people on Tuseday, Wednesday and Thursday respectively. Then she had the weekend off. The arrangement lasted about two years before she fell for one of us (not me) and ended three of the relationships.

Is this a good idea ?

! Not sure if it's a good idea - but it clearly worked for her!

Ali. No question is out of place as far as I'm concerned. There's infinite space and people don't have to read questions/threads they aren't interested in.

As to your question, I don't suppose there is any general rule. It depends on the people, the nature of the relationships, maybe age, orientation etc. In my youth it was wham-bam or nothing with me and the girls. Yet I know people who have been friends for years before becoming something more.

Come back JR I've only just arrived.
(Where's he gone Doc?)

Step over here JR immediately, or I
shall have to go and do something less
boring instead.
luv JB

Hello, JB, how are you today, I'm still bored, and I've run out of booze.

Apologies all round everybody, I mistook the bottom of the page for the end of the conversation, and didn't notice the little arrow pointing downwards. Doh!!!

My nom de ploom over here is Juicy Beloved, in the hopes that someone may either call me Juicy *OR* Beloved. I can hope can't I.

luv JB

Oh No, now I'm bifurcating as well. JR You must make a list when you go shopping. You should not be running out of the bottled stuff, or you will be getting withdrawal symptoms. You worry me you do. Anyway while you are sober, how are you today. luv JB

Still bored. Sobriety is overrated.

Hi, Beloved Juicy One.

There's another way to say Doh! here - like this :

i beg your pardon... i try not to cross territory... i just stumbled....

You are welcome, .

I wasn't doing anything, anyway.

Have a and enjoy the on this lovely evening.

I am trying to get back to you JR but I just can't. Can you help? I'm Sue Hinks from the QQ message boards. I just can't get in as either the old me or the new me. I'm in a Kafka-esque situation. Please help me.

Sue - First try: Delete all your cookies, at least the ones with bbc in the name, then try again.

They should be in C:\Windows\Cookies .

Regards, Aliquest aka Mark Littleover.

Hello, Sue, Mark has the right idea, delete your cookies and then log in to qq using your original login and password. If you have forgotten these, just invent new ones and reregister.

Hello there Mark

Do you have to type out the smiley name, or can you just click on the icon, because I just clicked on the star, and was sent into the cosmos. Feeling a bit space sick now.

What has happened to JR? Is he still bored?

Tune in tomorrow for the next thrilling instalment of......


JR bored again!!!! da da da daaaaa

See you all tomorrow, I hope.

JB

You seem to have mastered the smileys, anyway.

Don't be bored. Sue's here. I have found my way through.

Glad to see that.

JR I guess you have been asleep for the last 13 hours. If you are awake, and in touch with the Doc. Please tell him that some poor woman over on the *real* QQ is having a problem (sleep so she says) and I have told her that Doc may be able to help (ha ha ha ha ha ha ha). luv JB

If I can help somebody as I pass along .......
