Ah, my favorite homophone mistake.

Discrete != discreet.

[garote]

Well hell, I didn't even notice that! I guess in 2001 I still had grammering to do.

What, hadn't you ever heard that crack about fixing cryptography bugs involving "discreet logic"?

"Huh... that doesn't... look... oops. Oh. OH. UH-OH."

"Being hungry without getting mean."

If there's one thing I've learned about relationships, it's that you got to feed them ladies if you want them to be nice.

Tell it, brothah. Took me years to figure that one out.

It's so interesting...depend vs. rely. It takes a person with a strong sense of self to know the difference.

In your next relationship you mostly want to:

I wanted a "pick three of the above" option. Care, play, rely. A healthy mix of all three would make me happiest. I don't think I can elevate one above the others. Since your radio buttons forced me to, I picked care, since loving and being loved is the highest purpose we have as human-animals.

[garote]

Aye, that's the idea -- you're forced to choose one!
