Why can't girls be as easy as computers?


Why can't girls be as easy as computers? They're always all complicated, and they know they are. And I think they like it that way. But seriously, girls could make everything so much simpler. They always have to like try and play mind games and such. On that note, I was trying to think of an ideal pick-up scene in a bar, and it took me about 45 seconds to come up with one.

I mean, how badass would this be:

Inside a crowded, loud, and active bar. An attractive girl sips a drink while leaning back against the bar in one corner
[Guy approaches nervously and slowly]
Guy (in low voice, trying to be smooth): So baby, what's your favorite Linux distro?
Girl (knotting a cherry stem with her tongue): I sleep with my Debian box every night.
Guy: 2.6 kernel?
Girl: Nothing but.
Guy: AMD or Intel?
Girl (in a sexy voice): Overclocked and water-cooled Athlon 64, running on an internal bus of 466 MHz, paired with low latency DDR-3700. And I'm all ready for the 64-bit revolution.
Guy: I think it's time for a little LAN. So, what kind of music do you like, anyway?
Girl: Ever heard of Squarepusher?
Guy: Oh yes.
Girl: Every album recorded at a sharp 192 kbps VBR, saved right on my home ftp server.
Guy: Let's share.
Girl: It depends. What can you do for me?
Guy: I have cheap beer back at my place.
Girl: Deal. Let's go.
[Guy and girl leave bar together happily]

Damn, just the thought of being the guy in that conversation...
