quote:"My friend and I were backpacking through Costa Rica about 10 years ago and had found this beautiful little island with just one small hotel on it where we ended up spending a chunk of our trip. The waiters were charming and handsome and ended up talking to us many evenings as we were the youngest people there and usually the last to leave the bar. One night they were nicer than usual and bought us drink after drink, getting more and more familiar with us over the course of the night. I spoke spanish fluently, unbeknownst to our generous friends. Over the course of the evening they discussed in hushed whispers in spanish how they would get us drunk and take advantage of us. I tipped half my drinks into the bushes and sat smiling and laughing as the night wore on. Finally, after a moonlight walk down an empty pristine beach they made their move. As the waiter leaned in to kiss me I sweetly whispered in his ear in spanish that I had understood everything he said, was not drunk, and there was no chance he was setting a mother loving finger on me or my friend. I advised his friend as well and specified that my friend needed a beautiful night like this, bouncing back from a bad breakup that prompted the trip. They brought us back to our room and to this day my friend wistfully talks about that incredibly romantic night." I too let potential rapists take me somewhere secluded before delivering witty putdowns, but not before making sure that my friend is already drunk.

"There's no chance they speak Spanish, as they are in a hotel in a very off-the-beaten-path place and not a tourist hotspot." "Good point! Now, on to the advantage-taking!"

So on her trip staying at an 'off the beaten track' hotel, she doesn't speak any spanish to get around or order food and drinks, anything, but hides it so she can use it to bust rapists? I always thought tourists who could speak the language made a big point of doing so to show how well traveled they are.

I think I've cried exactly once in the past six months, and it was at a sad part on a TV show in the comfort of my own home. Do people really burst into tears that easily, or am I a robot? And would Uber really hire a deaf driver? Much less one prone to crying jags?

Totally plausible. Not really remarkable though, and posting it for Internet Points makes it a little suspect.

It's as plausible as someone winning their first game of chess against a professional chess player. Or she spent like a whole month of her life doing nothing but playing Magic Online and reading guides and stuff. There is no way in hell a person could build a decent competitive deck right after learning basic rules. MtG is convoluted as gently caress.

Oh, whoops, I glossed over the part where she built her own deck and such. I figured she'd just been handed a gimmick deck by the boyfriend and then also managed to get lucky with it. The plausible part I was thinking of was the sexism and manchild response. We all know that poo poo does happen.

One last thing about that travel story... she knows these waiters are trying to get them drunk so they can take advantage or whatever, and decides that even though shes only drinking half what they bring her that she and her friend should still go away with them (they went far enough that they had to drive them back)? So her pal could feel good after a breakup? Nothing says 'bounce back' then your bestie putting you at risk for rape. And theagic story... these guys are spending thousands of dollars then they are probably netdecking (finding out what broken mechanic some pro uses) their builds and theres no way some new person is going to just piece together a deck at random and beat them.
