Crush Patches

 i know, i know, i've got no romance in my soul

for all those obsessed friends who talk about nothing else but their latest crush and when they're next going to "accidently" bump into him/her.... having tried subtle hints, duct tape or ear plugs without success, these handy patches would release phenylalanine into the blood of the infatuated one - same happy feeling, no need to go hunting for crush object, dragging long-suffering friend with you ("so it doesn't look like i'm stalking him"). maybe the science/ethics of this is a bit wobbly. perhaps i need more duct tape.

       Got my vote. Go cold turkey on those Midnight Obsessions.

       you misunderstand me...i'm the longsuffering friend, tape for her mouth/my ears so's i don't have to listen to her endlessly dissect everything he says... but i'll pass on the abduction thing, she'll like that...

       Yup

       Not sure if getting married would solve it. I had a crush on the woman I married which lasted until the day she died.

       Dude, will you apologize for me?

       UB! You party animal! (Just which part of the globe is farthest from you?)

       UB ... hi, I'm a Major Hollywood Studio Executive, and I think your idea sounds like the start of something really big. We'd like you to write a screenplay, we'll option it, and we're thinking maybe Brad Pitt and that girl from Destiny's Child as the leads. Call us, babe. Love ya, love your idea, can't wait to get our people together, ciao!
