Tip 7: Smell nice ‘n natural

“I think the biggest mistake a girl can make is to go overboard with her perfume. If I wanted to hang out in a department store instead of go out on a date with you, I would,” says one guy when asked what his biggest turn-off was. Many men feel the same way about perfume. They like to smell it on a girl, but hate to be bowled over by it. “I want to still be able to smell you,” insists one man.

One application trick a reader recommends: “I spray my perfume in the air and walk backwards through it, because most guys smell you when they hug you, when their head is near your back.”

Rumors surrounding my demise have been mostly false. After a brief sojourn out into a strange world-- a world of big green things, and small fuzzy things, and no wireless fidelity to be found! --I have triumphantly returned, lusting for any sort of contact with the interwebz. Lolcats pictures are making me giggle, I'm posting trolling messages on bulletin boards, and I am even-- yes, it shames me to say this --watching AMVs on youtube.

Hopefully I'll get my electronic addiction back under control, and be at baseline nerdiness once again.

So I'm Kevin. I like to play videogames, and make snarky commentary about said videogames. My general approach to games tends to be a more pragmatic one, eschewing scholarly examinations in favor of simple questions like "is it fun?". When not playing videogames, I tend to browse craigslist in some effort to fill the aching hole in my heart. Thus far, nothing on the "free stuff" section has managed to do it, but I still hold onto hope!
