~~So this is how it starts, right?~~ I guess I should think about getting a dress for the prom ~~as if that's what the important thing is right n~~.

	So dresses are required? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 04:05 am UTC (link)
	Usually, yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betheleaf 2015-05-15 04:06 am UTC (link)
	Like how usually? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Proms are formal dances, so formal wear is required. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betheleaf 2015-05-15 04:10 am UTC (link)
	See but pants can be pretty formal. Depending on the pants. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 04:12 am UTC (link)
	If you want to wear pants, I'm sure you can. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Sounds like you're terribly excited at this prospect. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 03:10 pm UTC (link)
	I'm just not really in the mood for a dance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	And they require you to attend? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 07:33 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not required, but going makes my uncle happy, so I am. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Placing your own happiness behind someone else's seems like a foolish thing to do. If you don't want to go, you're well within your rights not to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	If going to some dance makes him happy, I'll go. It's just a dance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	That's typically how it starts. But it's your life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 09:25 pm UTC (link)
	How what starts? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 09:45 pm UTC (link)
	Rolling over, letting someone else take advantage of your kindness. Too many people think it's the big stuff, but it's always the little things that define who you are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	It's not like going to the dance would make me unhappy or hurt me or anything. It might end up being fun. It's just prom. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 09:48 pm UTC (link)
	You seemed pretty keen on complaining about it a second ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	I wasn't complaining, I was just saying I wasn't really in the mood for it. People do things they're not in the mood for all the time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Like I said, it's your life. Do with it what you want, and if you want to do something you're not in the mood for just to make someone else happy, that's your call. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cheerhappy 2015-05-15 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	I know it is - and maybe I'll end up in the mood by the time I get there. Guess we'll see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crucible 2015-05-15 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Good luck. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	And this is why I'm spending Saturday at a Mets game. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, baseball. Haven't thought about that in a long time; it isn't exactly commonplace in the future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Miranda \| Betty faywray 2015-05-15 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	I don't even think it's as commonplace now as it was when I was a kid, so that doesn't really surprise me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Miranda \| Betty crucible 2015-05-15 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	Well, there's not much room on a spaceship to play baseball to be fair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Did you have anything.... holodeck-y? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sort of. Nearly every computer has advanced far beyond what we have here. Modern input peripherals are usually holographically displayed in front of the user at a height and angle for ergonomic ease -- communicating via holographic video displays have become fairly more common, but it depends on the level of technology you've got access to. An organisation I worked for implemented the use of holographic communications displays into all of its ships. Some people undergo cybernetic enhancements to their fingertips so they can bring up the holo interface with a swipe of their hands and input their commands without having to fuss over the other commands typically required.

	That sounds like a commitment. I mean, I can think of a few people who would love to be able to do that kind of thing, though. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You wanna be my date? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah, sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Whoo hoo, I got a girl to go on a date with me. My mom would be so proud. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Uncle Peter is taking me dress shopping tonight. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Text me with the color you get so I can match my tie to it. We'll be super cute. (Reply to this) (Parent)
