AD: see if you can beat my limit ;)
LY: what is your limit
AD: no limit
AD: just has to be a 1
LY: but 0 and 1 in my system
LY: ahh so few 1's
AD: it's really just would you/wouldn't you
LY: anyway there's a difference between sober linda's 1 and drunk linda's 1
LY: i think you have to take beer goggles into consideration
AD: no, we do
AD: because we all function on the binary
AD: we go to the council for verification
AD: like "hey man..is that chick next to the bar in the pink top..1?"
AD: and we say "noooo sir, you are wasted young man"
or not since he just has to talk to me and i blog for him. so apparently the binary system is pervasive. or maybe i'm just friends with guys nerdy enough to sum up their desired qualities, nay, quality, in a partner in computer science terms.
