Good or bad, we'll let you decide...

She's looking for women who "deviate from the LIVE PINK, Ugg boot wearing, college co-eds who think that a good night out equates to drunkenly staggering around Lark & N Pearl in a bare it all, tacky Deb dress while bros slap their asses and try to slip rohypnol in their Jager & Red Bulls."

So, she was the girl with the Girl with Dragon Tattoo tattoo?

He was right about nighttime espresso.

She drew his attention away from the fire spinners. (Not from Craigslist: spin jam photos.)

Burn.

"I should have taken the chance that you don't mind sweaty guys..."

"I would love to see you again sometime in someplace other then a cab."

"Sorry if I bruised you. Was very surprised at my reaction, but you do that to me, and YOU know it."

That's not a whole lot to start on.

"You had the plastic poo bag in your hand so I couldnt see a ring. "

In this case, bad karma is riding a nice bike.

"Have a carry concealed permit now what?"

Found in Guilderland: a rather striking pigeon.

Found: a rocket.
