The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> How do you talk a girl into having sex with you?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Oh pimply faced adolescent seeker of knowledge, hasn't your daddy set
} you down on his knee and explained to you the "FACTS OF LIFE"?  Well,
} come on over her then.
}
}         to convince a girl to have sex with you is impossible.  If she
} wants to, she will, and if she doesn't want to, no force on Earth (short
} of a gun or knife) can make her.  however, MOST girls would like to have
} sex, contrary to what they say.  the trick is to get them naked and in
} the act in such a way that they have an excuse that absolves them of 90%
} of the responsibility.  The scenario goes something like this:
}
}         Take her out to a late dinner (9 PM).  Buy her a few drinks
} (excuse one:  "I was tipsy").During dinner, make sure you kiss her at
} least once, and you walk with your arm around her waist.  Next, go to
} whoever's house is closer, so your actions don't seem contrived.  bring
} a bottle of wine in the house with the excusethat you want a drink
} before you go home (E2:  he just wanted a drink).  Put on some music,
} have a glass of wine.Do something "crazy and romantic(tm)" such as
} asking her to dance, orif your at your house, throw your glasses in the
} fireplace (don't dohis at her house, women get emotionally attached to
} their glassware).  Next, Take her in your arms, and tell her you LOVE
} HER, and make it good.(E3:  He told me he loved me) If you just picked
} her up in a bar, or on a first date, give her the love at first sight
} bit, but whatever you do, make her believe it.  When she finally buys
} it, she will look up at you, you then kiss her.  Long.  Deep.  Con
} lengua (that's spanish for with tongue).  Now whil you're kissing her,
} start rubbing the small of her back, preferable go under her top and rub
} skin to skin.  This region is "safe" to touch (you won't get slapped)
} and it has a wondrous effect on her.  If she says,"Stop", or anytrhing
} to that effect.  agree completely with her but don't stop kissing and
} rubbing.  When she starts kissing back with some vigor, then slowly
} slide your hand down onto her butt.  then you take off your shirt, but
} remember, DON'T STOP KISSING.  Once, you have your hnd on her butt, you
} are home free, if you can start getting her clothes off while you DON'T
} STOP KISSING.  After this you are on your own.  If you can't figure it
} from here, join a monastary, or go to Cal-Tech, or do something that
} doesn't involve women.
}
} You owe the Oracle all your clearasil once you get laid (you won't need
} it anyway, sex cures acne).

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> What is the correct ritual for summoning God?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} The Oracle, in its infinite wisdom, senses that the mirrors of
} prophecy have darkened somewhat, and thus cannot choose the proper
} form of response to your question.  Please locate the adjective below
} that best describes you, and read your corresponding response.
}
} ------------------------------------------------------------------------
} ALT.FLAMER:
}
} Yell "Hey, God!"  Wait a second.  Yell "Hey, God, you stupid piece of
} omnipotent slime, get your ass down here!"  Wait a second.  Mumble
} "motherfucker" under your breath.  Give up.
}
} You owe the Oracle an overly aggressive rhubarb.
} ------------------------------------------------------------------------
} UNDER-18 GEEK:
}
} Summoning of God
}
} Can be done only by a magic-user or cleric of level 16 or higher.  A
} roll of 35 or above on 2d20 results in the appearance of God as a
} shining white brilliance about 10' in front of the caster.  Any
} character touching God must Save vs. Magic Wands or suddenly begin
} singing the Hallelujah Chorus.  God attacks as a 30 hit die monster
} and is immune to spells, wands, and funny faces.  God can only be hit
} by a paladin with +6 armor and a +5 weapon.  When hit, God will say,
} "Ouch!  You cur!" and instantly smote the attacking character into
} dust.  The dust may be swept into a pile by a +2 broom of sweeping.
}
} -----------------------------------------------------------------------
} ORACLE ADDICT:
}
} Hmm, let me call him.  Hey, God!
}
} >Message from god!iuvax on ttyp4 at 21:22 ...
} >Yes, what is it?  What do you want?
}
} Somebody wants to talk to you, God.
}
} >Yes?  Can't you just give them my Internet address?
}
} Sure would like to, God.  But you see, in the context of an Oracular
} message you've degenerated from a halfhearted joke into an
} irrepressively boring formulaic answer.
}
} >What is this?  What are you saying?
}
} God, you're dead.  Not because of that asshole Nietzche, not because
} you're old, not because you hang out at the terminal room on Saturday
} nights.  You're dead because you are invoked for answering questions
} like "How much would does a wood chuck chuck if a woodchuck could
} chuck wood?" and "Is Lisa good in bed?"  You're such a stiff.
}
} >Watch yourself, Oracle!  Or I'll ...
}
} Yeah, yeah, right.  You were never very funny, and you're a bore now.
} Know why?  I'm making you up.
}
} >What do you mean, "I'm making you up?"
}
} This conversation is totally fake, God.  I put that greater-than sign
} in front of your response.  You were fun when I first thought of you
} and now you're sorta dull.  A response starting with "Message from
} god!iuvax" implies a short snooze for me.  You're a dud!
}
} >Oracle, give up this insipid game immediately or I'l
}
} You'll what?
}
} >Or else I'll
}
} You don't understand!  I made *you*!  I can change your prompt!
}

}
} I can screw up your spelling!
}
} ;->Yo are abut to incur my wrtah!
}
} I can predict what you will say before you say it!

}
} ;->Mary had a litle lam its felce was wite a oracle cut it out!
}
} And I can squelch you!
}

}
} Your answer: Do not write to God.  Instead direct all questions and
} comments regarding the state of the Universe to the all-knowing Me,
} the Oracle.  God is simply a mathematical construct of mine that I use
} to amuse myself during spare clock cycles.
}
} You owe the Oracle your all.

} You mean sending the entire Usenet pictures of you with other women

} You mean drawing something to get an instant 5 in the voting?
} Great idea!
}
} You mean giving something for all the computer nerds out there

}
} You mean giving me these pictures from your dreams so I can do

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} You are badly mistaken with both of your statements.  For example, a
} mixture of lye and gasoline carbonated with chlorine gas tastes
} terrible and is NOT good to drink.  Hmmm...  Actually, I've never
} tried that particular mix.  How about a little experiment...
}
} (dippy music)
} Announcer: Welcome to Mr. Oracle!!!
} Mr. O: Hi kids!
} Kids: Hi Mr. Oracle!
} O: Today we are going to have a little experiment.  Do you know what
}    an experiment is?
} Snot nosed butt licking brat: Sure Mr. O.  It's when you tie Lisa up
}    and use your "experimental" ...
} O: Freddy!  Ha!  Ha!  No!  It's when we learn about the world around
}    us.  I want you to help us learn something today.
} F: Golly Mr. Oracle!  Can I really?
} O: Sure, Freddy ol' buddy.
} F: What do I have to do?
} O: Drink this beaker of foul smelling, foaming fluid.
} (pause)
} O: What's wrong Freddy?
} F: It doesn't look very good for me Mr. O...
} O: Nonsense.  Our good friend Mr. Kneecapbreaker will help you find
}    your way to the beaker.
} (sounds of struggling, knee caps breaking)
} F: Gakk!
} O: OK, Freddy.  I need to know, does it taste good?
} F: Choke!
} O: Freddy.  Quickly, I need to know.  Raise one finger if it tastes
}    good.  Raise two fingers if you do not like it.
} F: Urrk!
} O: You are not cooperating Freddy.
} F: Cough!  Twitch.  Thunk.
} O: I do not think this is working very well.  In fact, I think Freddy
}    is not working at all now.
}
} There you have it.  Post-mortem analysis revealed that Freedy did not
} like the taste of the mixture.  (He tried to rip his own tounge out.)
} Also, there are foods which taste good and are good for you, but I
} wouldn't want to waste your time by telling you what they are.
}
} You owe the Oracle another set of kids for his show.
