Toothing?

MONDAY MARCH 8 2004 10:43 PM

Those wacky Brits are at it again:

'Toothing is a form of anonymous sex with strangers - usually on some form of transport or enclosed area such as a conference or training seminar. 'Toothers meet by first connecting suitable equipment - such as a modern phone or palmtop computer. Users 'discover' other computers or phones in the vicinity and then send a speculative message. The usual greeting is: 'Toothing?'.

That's from the toothing f.a.q. from the official toothing BBS. So how long until toothing reaches your town? (thanks Kat)

I was out with a girl at a bar one night and we were fucking with some nerd that brought his iBook with him. I sauntered up and asked "Is your name XXXXXX?" as I showed him his entire name on my phone.

"Who...are you?!"

From the other side of the fence... people have screwed my head up completely in bars a couple of times in the past few months. Bluetooth tech is a freaky one.

My phone buzzes in my pocket, so I take a look, expecting to have a text message... but instead the tiny LCD screen on the outside of my clamshell-phone has a message scrolling across it before I even open the phone - "I'm not the redhead in the corner".

What the fuck?

LMFAO, I was reading the links and there is a lovely thread on the board "Is toothing cheating?" and they decided it isn't, because.. she doesn't even talk to the guys!

So for all you monogamous people out there, remember.. having random sex with strangers isn't cheating, if you find them on a proximity cell phone.
