"If you were trying to reach Bart Allen. Well. I've got good news and bad news. Good news: this is he. Bad new: this is a pre-recorded me. Because I got bored waiting for people to call and went to do something cool. More good news though: I'll be back to check my messages before you know it. Probably. Usually. Sometimes. Occasionally. Look, it's a better plan to just post a feed that I can tap into anywhere, OK? Hang a sign in your window that says "Bart stop here" is gonna be the fastest way to flag me down. But if you must, leave one."

Hey, it's not like I'm saying everybody has to wait until they're married or shacked up or in love. Um. Kinda case in point here.

[Theres a quick handwave accompanying this, indicating that he wasn't any of those.]

But I think it's somewhere between everything and nothing. People get jealous of tons of stuff that doesn't involve getting naked. It won't fix things there if you don't make it mean as much. Might make it harder to track guys down for child support. Might up the spread of STDs cause people are morons about condoms. You should've seen my schools' idea of sex ed. I went to high school in Alabama and Kansas. They gave out bent Snapple caps that made this tick-tick sound when you pressed them. Called 'em conscious clickers. I dunno how that was supposed to help. Follow each other around and annoy anyone trying to talk to anyone else? Stupid.

I guess religion has a lot to do with what people think. I'm not religious. I don't know if people are are lobsters and penguins or bunnies and turtles. I dunno a lot of things so it's not like sex makes you smarter. All I know is the people I know that've made the "til death do us part" thing work - they're just happier than the ones that didn't.

[Hayley gives him a curious look. She wants to ask more about it. She'd thought he was in love. But the girl said she wouldn't and so she won't.

Instead, she focuses on the rest of what he's said. Having grown up in California at pretty decent - and liberal - schools, she's kind of oblivious to other schools' inadequate sex ed methods. If nothing else, he's right about that. People should be well educated if they're going to be off having sex at random. Trying to argue for better education seems obvious though, so she doesn't bother.]

I'm a fan of monogamy. [She clarifies.] If people want to only have sex with and love each other, then I think that's awesome, marriage and all the rest of it. But I also think that some people aren't cut out for it and pretending like they are only makes things worse.
