Yo Programo

Fully convinced that she's missing out on a juicy gossip story that David won't tell her, and after shamelessly begging for David to tell her about it but only being thrown the bone that it has something to do with a "Dorothy Miller", Tim's classmate (SeeJaneTyp) falls hook, line, and sinker for the old use-one-of-your-5-AOL-screen-names-to-pretend-to-be-someone-else trick.
David, Josh, and Tim gladly let her dig herself into a hole by playing along with her manipulative tactics and then take the opportunity to pounce with the final "gotcha" before she realizes she's been had. Note that the things mentioned at the end were all references to earlier conversations between FC Zwicker and SeeJaneTyp which have been lost in cyberspace forever.

Dorth314: Are you the girl asking about the pool thing? David e-mailed me and said you were getting nosey.
SeeJaneTyp: um well david said something about you and tim losing your virginity that night and i was like no way but he swore
Dorth314: HE SAID WHAT??????
SeeJaneTyp: yea
Dorth314: It wasn't anything like that. Do you want to hear it?
SeeJaneTyp: sure but why would david lie
Dorth314: He's a jerk. He asked me out once and I said no.
Dorth314: He didn't talk to me for like a month after that
SeeJaneTyp: hmm so he did lie what a jerk he'll hear it from me
SeeJaneTyp: no one casually lies to me ever
Dorth314: You go, girl

SeeJaneTyp: eww so mean the noodles were in his nose
Dorth314: Then david starts running away laughing, holding his camera in the air.
SeeJaneTyp: ew david ;( but that is too funny
SeeJaneTyp: what about tim
Dorth314: So I tried to get it from david, but tim beat me there.

In this AOL instant message conversation from sometime in 1998 or 1999, David, Josh, and Tim lead one of Tim's high school classmates on to believe that David is withholding some juicy information from her regarding a "noodle incident"--an intriguing teaser taken straight out of a Calvin and Hobbes comic strip.
Unfortunately, AOL only saved a portion of the conversation back then, so if you didn't save early enough, or if you overwrote the file, then you lost some of the conversation. This appears to be the final portion of this conversation.
