Is Your Name Mike and Did You Build This Snowman?

If so, you are sought. Sent to Last Days by Hot Tipper King Randall:

I met a really nice guy Wednesday when out sledding down Drunken Dream Denny. His name is Mike. I was hanging with my peeps. He was hanging with his. I let him ride my sled. I ran into him later that day down the street, he was building this snowman.

Still with our separate posses, we went our own ways for the day. I thought, if I see him one more time, I'm gonna ask him out. It never happened. I know Last Days isn't really about hooking up, but, come on! Look at that snowman! Can you find the Mike who built this in Thomas park?!

Exactly.

Btw, the girl who was trying to get to Mount Pleasant yesterday on the 861(?) from N45th, the young guy who asked you questions from the UW said he really liked you. Or at least that's what he said later.

Sure, I'm Matt, or whatever.

My name is Mike and that kinda looks like a snowman I built. But, unfortunately, I can't go out with anyone who uses "peeps." Unless her name is Kate Beckinsale.

I'd love to help this love connection out, but I have to echo @5 - anyone who refers to their friends as peeps or a posse must remain single and celebate.

@8 I assume "celebate" is a cross between celibate and celebrate. So, they must celebrate their lack of marriage[1].

[1] Back when people cared about the distinction between "celibate" and "chaste" celibate meant not marrying, while chaste meant not having sex. This is why monks and nuns and such took vows of both. If we kept this verbal distinction you would find that many, many people are celibate and often happily so. Certainly far more than who are chaste. Although I suppose there may be some people who are not celibate, but are chaste.

8, anyone? You wouldn't have a special slang waiver for being hot?

P.S. I like The Slang Waivers for a band name.

You kids, waiving your slang around, peeping your posses and possing your peepees hither and yon.

Mike are you out there? I can't see you! There are a bunch of ugly slog trolls blocking my view!

They were using the term 'peeps' to be cute and silly. It matched the cute and silly tone of the request, and the cute and silly snowman. Chill. The. Fuck. Out.
