      I'm relatively sure this has been the consensus opinion for a while now.
      I beg to defer. Match-making is actually a respected profession in most
      parts of the world and there's not need to be cynical about it.

        Matchmaker is OK, and there isn't anything inherently wrong (many girls do, even in the first world) with considerations of the man's ability to provide in the selection process. I didn't have a real problem with Lancer until recently, when he tried to connect a girl he knew to some new passerby on apolyton (who he didn't know anything about) and because of his poor behavior with respect to Aeson.

          If it's still available, I would like to be directed to the relevant thread(s) where Lancer's and Aeson's perspectives are given.
          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

              I didn't follow the soap opera with regards to Aeson, but do you really think
              Lancer would marry off a girl to a passerby? You connect people, they exchange
              letters, images of themselves, talk on the phone, whatnot, before they even
              shake hands for the first time months or years in the future. It's a process.

                That's the problem for me.

                I was only interested if he would wrap one up and ship her over (after beating the Catholic out of her of course). Still waiting...

                  Sad days, when the best to offer is the resurrection of a thread that was stupid to begin with.

                    We're just waiting for Civ5 Sloww. The owners are under the mistaken impression we just need a new Civ release and all will be fine.

                      I'm sure when it's released it will be just the thing we've been waiting for all this time.

                      Yeah, right.

                        It takes a long time to beat the Catholic out. I'd hook up with another girl in the meantime, if I were you.
