I've heard that if your # of landings = # of takeoffs, then you're a good pilot.

Congrats Wolfala  :rock

I have no idea how many landings I've done.  My suggestion would be drink until you have no idea how many drinks the two of you have consumed.

Because it's not a guy?  Or is this some sort of overcompensation mechanism attempt at humor to gain approval from an audience by stating something you perceive to be the popular thing to say?

You'd bang any chick that would have you.  We know that even if you won't admit it.
