Is the only way to not be mean to say you are pretty? Maybe I should have blamed the lighting?

Greed, seriously other than meeting the additional folks, really I've kinda let what you said go. I'm sulking a little--but let's bury this a little.

I would have said INSERT FUCKING TACT HERE.

Indeed. I will fully admit to being a bit of wussy on the down hills.

This time around, he knew what to expect and had some more lofty goals.

He said he was pretty blown away when he got passed by a girl and never saw her again. And later he got passed by a guy on a one speed. There were even a couple of tandems up there.
He didn't mention the guy juggling on the unicyle, did he?

Okay. Great! We are finally in agreement! (Except I'd be lying about the attractive part...And the making a case part. Otherwise, I agree with you 100%.)

It's not lying TM. I think that is the big disconnect here. I didn't find you attractive but can see objectively how women could. You don't seem to find within yourself that ability. Even if you didn't want to throw someone down. Someone somewhere out there may find that person attractive.

We all know that "not my type" is code for "yuck."

Maybe you should try going for "not unattractive"?

Those are not attractive. Ugly. Not pretty. Not hot. And nothing you do is going to change my mind on that.

I want to get this clear. Only ugly people are not attractive.

Are not attractive people therefore ugly?

(I had a hard time with the Logic class I took in college and could only pass the exams if I got high first. I may need to go looking to see what dope is in the house.)

You have just made the word completely pointless. If it holds no meaning, I could say that fish paste is attractive.

There is no doubt in my or anyone's mind that some people find you attractive -- your husband, for example (notwithstanding the weight thing). There is no one in the world who someone doesn't find attractive. Is that what you want me to concede? Because that's not an evaluation. That's a Stuart Smalley episode.

"Someone," in this case, does not necessarily mean Wonk.
