I have come across complaints from women who say the "dating pool"
in their area has been ruined by too many tech bros.  I guess its
also their fault to go on dates with tech bros in the first place,
as it takes two to tango.

I found my girl by playing a game called /real life/, and that is
what I recommend everyone do, when they try to find their love of
their lives.


Happy love life, in /comp.lang.c/!
