i admit i've relented a bit on some of my harsh views, but the black hole is still supremely annoying. Especially when it turns already-flakey seattleites into complete Frosted.

Helpful hints for flakes:

1) If you suddenly come down with ennui or malaise of living on an evening when you said you'd hang/go out, text ASAP that you are "feeling like shit", even if you aren't sure if you're definitely staying home or not. This way if you don't go, the person will be understanding (more than less), and if you go they will be pleasantly suprised.

2) If you are delayed by bus or traffic, text or call to let them know. Add 15 to what you THINK it will take, cos it's always gonna be longer, unless it's 5am. If you are delayed more than 45 minutes, periodic updates are rather appreciated.

3) If you are delayed by booty, do not be embarrassed to admit it either immediately before or after the encounter.

4) Speaking of which, unless he/she is totally retarded, it's more than ok to bring the booty out in public with your friends.

5) Rule 2 goes double for drug dealers, by which I mean "the times are doubled". At the least they should make it clear ahead of time where the rendezvous point is, if it varies.

People don't do this? That's just common courtesy.

some do, but most of the time i have to initiate the communique.
