i saw u<\/b><\/p>\n

I saw u Thurs. at Sam’s Bar & Grill. Me: blond, blue eyes, jeans, Hooters t-shirt, approached and suggested that we go to my place so you could check out my hard drive. You: pretty, petite, dark hair, reading “Underworld”, said you’d rather eat a thumbtack sandwich than go home with me. I didn’t get your number. Call me, drinks? 5099<\/center><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That’s an old post<\/a> of mine from 2002, later reprinted in the book “Never Threaten To Eat Your Coworkers: Best of Blogs<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

I’m not entirely sure what’s going on, but, as near as I can tell, some students in a Ohio State University English class are reading Never Threaten<\/em>, and have been told to comment on the “i saw u” entry. As that post’s comments have long since closed, I’m creating this one in its stead. Go nuts.<\/p>\n

P.s. I’ve been in touch with the class instructor<\/a> and verified that this is on the level, despite all appearances.<\/p>\n

P.p.s. Uncharitable comments will be deleted. The OSU students are welcome here and I’ll thank you to treat them as guests. Update<\/b>: I have given up. The “go nuts” exhortation now applies to all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
