Who plays the intern?
Sub?  maybe even Cheapie. lmao

I need more power than "intern". Subv is younger and more naive so she should have that title. Plus she has many hidden talents to be discovered by her mentor.  :-*

Age isn't an accurate measure of naivety.

If anything, manners and conduct says much more about one's maturity level and level of naivety.

We don't care about naive interns...just discrete ones.

True, but in the comparison between the two of us I think Im accurate in this statement. No one even brought up maturity....thats moot. We are both very mature women in that we know how to play. It's just I may have played a few more "games" than she has.

Come on Dweezy, teach me right from wrong. I wont tell anyone. ---Is this what you're talkin about?  ;D

You didn't. But I did "bring up" maturity for several reasons, but that may be off topic. Maybe not.

I think it's biased to downplay what someone else knows, can accomplish, or is experienced in so long as you can't transport yourself into their mind and read their thoughts. And since that's not humanly possible, I think it's fair enough to support my claim. Knowing what one can do is fine and a great position to be in life, but assuming that one knows all or more than others/most regardless of the circumstances inevitably leads to closemindedness and is a strong form of dogmatism which actually hurts what that person knows as it's safe to say they aren't really putting any of it to good use. Also, playing more "games" is irrelevant if you're not remembering or applying the correct rules. So it's really a matter of quality not quantity or how many "games" as you put it, you can play so well. It's also what you're getting out of those "games" that matters. For all we know, sub may have you beat there.

I don't care how many "games" one has played...as long as they're flexible.

Damn, we're way OT.

Will all of this happen in Victorian England?  If so, then I suppose it's on topic  :-\

If I did end up in Victorian England, I'd try not to bet against some funny man who thinks he can go around the world in 80 days.

Don't drink the water either

Quote from: not wikipedia
In an article published on 24th September 1849 he described a London Street with a tidal ditch running through it, into which drains and sewers emptied. The ditch contained the only water the people in the street had to drink, and it was ?the colour of strong green tea?, in fact it was ?more like watery mud than muddy water?. This is the report he gave:

?As we gazed in horror at it, we saw drains and sewers emptying their filthy contents into it; we saw a whole tier of doorless privies in the open road, common to men and women built over it; we heard bucket after bucket of filth splash into it? (2).
