No, it was in a car, and I had written it up in a 20-page document I printed off, but then I recited it from memory anyway. I’m kinda glad I don’t have that document anymore.
This is the exact reverse, in every way, of Erin collaborating with a friend of hers to write up an elaborate argument tree for the job of persuading me that she ought to be my girlfriend, which she ended up not actually needing to use.
She also doesn’t have that document any more. I so wanted to see it...
grin that was fun, and incidentally how I first found out about you (Eliezer). I don’t remember actually formally writing said document though, so much as just reasoning out the pro/cons of various approaches.
How the hell do people lose these things? I keep all these documents so I can publicly distribute them after say a one year time period, to the general amusement and enlightenment of all. Ask her to write it again.

I’m glad it worked out though! :)

Wow! A 20 page essay on “why I’m breaking up with you”? That’s just… brutal!
I’m picturing it with an impressive array of references at the end, and side remarks on The Neglected Virtue of Scholarsip.
And obviously the title should have been:
“In Which I Explain How Natural Selection Has Built Me To Be Attracted To Certain Features That You Lack”
:D
I take no responsibility for anything Luke-2007 did. Different guy. :)
Out of curiosity, do you expect Luke-2015 to take responsibility for anything Luke-2011 does?
Only the good stuff! :)
I wonder if this principle works in the case of a murder which rapidly changes the murderer. (Later that day, they may bear no responsibility.)
I am surprised that she didn’t cut you off way before you got to the one-hour mark...
My guess is that it would have been like forcing herself to look away from a train wreck.
Did you destroy all of the copies?
