Im serious! Im the atty. I have the $350,000 house. I have the 6-figure career. You may be the tall, young, hot nymph, but I am the prize! Start convincing
Maybe I should have gone to law school.
Gross.
(Also, my jaded California reaction to the $350,000 house figure was so? My step-father has that, and it's a tiny duplex. (One that I like, mind you. But not a prize.))
I love that he resigned from the victim's rights board but not his job.
4, resign from his job and lose his 6 figure salary? Then he'd have to rely on his winning personality to get women.
Wow, it never occurred to me to proposition women by demanding that the prove themselves to be worthy of being my mistress. Maybe I should try it--Is anyone here at unfogged a risk taker who can keep their mouth shut? Are you ready to run with the big dog? I make five figures, baby!
Christ, what an asshole.
6: I think this is a standard dick move. When I was 14 I had an enormous crush on the twenty-something guy who helped teach my lifesaving class. But then he asked me out, and my girlish crush turned immediately to being hugely grossed out that the adult man was trying to date the 90lb adolescent. His big persuasive pick-up move at that point was to say "Maybe you just wasn't cool and mature enough? Really, I don't think you could handle me? I have a pilot's license and you probably couldn't keep up with my happeningness?"

Not for long
1: On the veldt, that line would totally have worked.
Yeah, I can imagine it works on people with self esteem issues. He probably targeted her because she was an abuse victim. He thought he could pick up where her last abusive boyfriend left off.
Is anyone here at unfogged a risk taker who can keep their mouth shut?
Hey there, sailor.
I knew I could count on you, apo.
I would think apo keeping his mouth shut would be a major impediment.
Jeez, 7 used to happen to me a lot. I always crushed on super-inappropriate older guys until the proposition. I'm not sure why it never occurred to me at 16 that a 32-year-old who was flirting with me wasn't actually an impressive catch until he asked me out and I became aware of my age, but it didn't. Same thing with the 45-year-old professor when I was 19. Suddenly I felt very young!
This will never happen to me again.
I think its weird the way people who fly planes think they are super smooth for having a pilot's license. It seems to me like having a license to drive a bus or operate heavy construction equipment. I can imagine that it would be fun to do, but really it is just a practical skill useful for certain jobs.
"I have a pilot's license" is really on par with "I'm on a boat, motherfucker."
Me, I got a fishing license, but that's just for the halibut.
18: Do you wear a "FREE MUSTACHE RIDES" tshirt?
15: Flying is not a cheap hobby. Having a private pilot's license is strong evidence that you have a lot of discretionary time and income.
Even a commercial pilot's license is more exotic and exciting than a truck driver's certification, because you can't hop on a 18-wheeler to Paris for the weekend.
That guy isn't taking any Piper Cubs from Wisconsin to Paris either.
I have a very strong urge to put up a dating ad that says "Are you a risk-taker who can keep his mouth shut?" just to see what I get. I bet I'd see a lot of dates out of that.
demanding that the prove themselves
Basic probe of self esteem-- SOP for guys looking for weak women, I think.
22: Do it, and blog the whole thing. (Hey I said you had to keep your mouth shut, not me!)
He was just pushing the envelop a bit on concept of the neg.
Push if you want this old gray top, you cannot doot with an envelop.
I guess at least he didn't go for any fondling. You never know when an unnoticed security camera is going to get you a couple felony charges.

27: Well done. I tried and failed to come up with a response in the proper patriotic and poetic spirit. I stared at that sucker for 3 hours about a minute and could not figure out what was wrong with it (and no Firefox squiggle, of course).
I had a pilot's license, but it never did get me laid. $5000 in flying lessons, all for naught.
During high school and college, I tried to learn the phrase "I am a pilot" in as many languages as possible, under the joking premise that it was the perfect pick-up line. At one point I had Bengali down, but I've since forgotten that one and most of the others.
Among French, Italian, and German, I still get mixed up about which ones use "a pilot" (that is, with an indefinite article) and which do not.
I can eat glass; it doesn't hurt me.
I confess to having eventually succumbed to a guy with a pilot's license, who did, yes, take me up in a plane for a very fun afternoon. None of this "I make six figures!" business, though.
According to TPM, he had an even classier pick-up/harrassment approach: "Hey baby, do you want to see my stiffy?"
31: Indian marriage arrangers charge by the desirability of the arranged husband - so they charge top price if they manage to set your daughter up with an Indian Air Force pilot. However! you get a discount if he flies the MiG-21, because it has such a terrible safety record.
