Does anyone remember the episode of The Office where Jim was teasing Pam with fake proposals? - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:35 13
- (1) that's a tv sitcom, they're supposed to do funny things; and (2) that's the dynamic of the characters' relationship within the show. -- nm - farmer ted Sep 11, 10:41 5
  - 1) some people enjoy humor/teasing in real life too -- nm - Guy Sep 11, 10:45 4
    - Guy. When somone cries, it's not humor. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 10:48 3
      - Soft. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:50
      - Never? I'd cry from laughing at your absurdity, but you just told me I couldn't. - Guy Sep 11, 10:50 1
        
        yes Guy, that's when it stops being funny, and you probably want to learn that. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 10:52
- Watch that episode again. Pam didn't like it, and I think they were trying to show Jim was wrong for doing it. -- nm - Inigo Sep 11, 10:38
- completely agree with the last line of your IM -- nm - Guy Sep 11, 10:36
- don't you think Jim would have stopped before making her cry? -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 10:36
- so what you're saying is that there are two kinds of things women want ... - Beryllium Sep 11, 10:36 2
  - Um... no. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:38 1
    - YOU LIE!! -- nm - Beryllium Sep 11, 10:39
- See B2. -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 10:36
she had expectations building up, which were then dropped swiftly. its like that moment in a movie - Guy Sep 11, 10:35 15
- You don't have to propose at the top of the Tower, but don't fake making one. -- nm - Reagen Sep 11, 10:36 4
  - I admit, in NO I waited until near the end to propose. There were a few moments that would have been memorable but I waited and did my own. - Spawn Sep 11, 10:39 3
    - but i bet her anticipation was building (with at least a little letdown) each time, no? - Guy Sep 11, 10:42 2
      - Maybe. But there was no Eiffel Tower moment, so the letdown was minor. -- nm - Spawn Sep 11, 10:45
      - ah, the "why is he only putting the tip in?" method of proposing. -- nm - TFox Sep 11, 10:44
- yeah, "Lowered Expectations" is a dick move. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 11, 10:35 9
  - If it never rains, you'll never appreciate the sunshine. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:36 8
    - if sunshine is the proposal at the hot dog stand, I'll pass. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 10:38
    - Fine, you go "make it rain", then. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 11, 10:38 1
      - *splurt* -- nm - Hotkiss Sep 11, 10:38
    - The hubby is supposed to be the umbrella (ella, ella), not the rain. -- nm - TFox Sep 11, 10:37 4
      - He ended up being the sun. - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:40 3
        
        after he made the rain. i don't make rain for SheFox on purpose. - TFox Sep 11, 10:41 2
        
        That's great, for you. - Dr.Vermin Sep 11, 10:47
        
        there's enough bad shit in life. -- nm - loosilu Sep 11, 10:43
I mean, "he proposed at a hot dog stand in paris" is nice and special. - Beryllium Sep 11, 10:33 5
- again - i'd bet good money she tells this story to her grandkids and relives here delight every time -- nm - Guy Sep 11, 10:37
- ...with the tower in the background - * le sigh* - Epiphany Sep 11, 10:36 3
  - the doorman is getting better and better looking, isn't he? -- nm - 'lia Sep 11, 10:38 2
    - at this point he looks like Gabriel Aubry - Epiphany Sep 11, 10:51 1
      - somebody i've spent time in a relationship with pulls a stunt like this loser *ALL* men would look like Gabriel Aubry - 'lia Sep 11, 10:56
