Especially surgeons. Some of the best ones Ive known (save for one, who is a real life Doogie Howser) I would have guessed were on the spectrum.

Yeah, much like many of the IT guys I know. Brilliant, but a little awkward. They've been really reliable friends though.

This was the narcissist attorney who randomly flew to DC and showed up at my doorstep while I wasn't home and was angry that I wasn't there, if any of you remember those posts. It got to the point in our relationship where he would order for me. I'm not going down that road again. NEVER again. So when this guy, right out of the gate, asked for the least amount of sugar, it was instant flashbacks and I was thinking, "oh no, not another Jeff, I'm not doing this shit again." Maybe he was a diabetic, and I'm just a bitch for having a flashback, but it just was not a good start for me.
Did you ever ask?

Im not a big cocktail man but if I was at a place that didnt have wine/scotch/craft I would probably order something in a similar manner. Maybe not specifically say least sugar but least sweet. Mainly because I just don't like super-sweet things.

I'm also super regimented about my diet but I doubt it would come up in that manner on a date, that is just how I cook for myself. Cutting a lot of hidden sugars out of my diet was the final key to leaning out again @ 40 (which is a bitch and a half, the only thing I miss about being 20). But that mainly stems from being an athlete, and not like a judging thing.

Nope, didn't ask. I didn't really like him.

Means able to fly by the instruments instead of visual flight rules. Harder to get but I'm guessing most of these pilots are commercial instead of private so they are probably all IFR rated.

IFR = Instrument Flight Rating, which means that they passed additional pilot license tests that allow them to fly in low-visibility or bad weather.....

I would assume yes on at least half of them, because let's just say Top Gun, but I don't know. I'll ask them. One flies into hurricanes, can't imagine that visibility would be great. The videos he sent me from flying into Elsa were mind blowing. I'd be too scared. Wish I knew how to upload videos. Here's a screenshot
You should fly with him during a storm. It's crazy when lightning strikes the plane and the weird glow that occurs.

I experienced it while in the cockpit on a Southwest flight (…they allowed me access since I am a peace officer).

I'd fly right into every damn storm I could! "Sir why are your off your plotted course?" Would be my standard greeting.

It's very cool to witness. You know those static glass spheres with electricity that follows your fingertips? It's similar to that, but it goes all over the cockpit glass.
