One where there were too many young, atrractive single women around who were more than interested in the boss (oh yes, double bad for me!) and not enough time on their hands (company was in a death-spiral, proven by the layoffs and eventual closure). In my defense I was going through a separation anyway, but it was technically still cheating as we had not yet divorced.
EDIT: I did marry one of those women whom I met at that time, and she is now my wife. In my double-defense, she was a gamer, and arguably I was powerless to resist! When a woman's first pickup line to you is, "Do you play World of Warcraft? Let's group!" it's like baiting the hook with a juicy worm for the fish. Later that week, when she asked me out for the night and I told her I had a game...."D&D, like WoW but with a tabletop and no computer," and she just ran to her car and pulled out her Player's Handbook, "You mean THIS game?!?! Can I come?" I'd pretty much bitten the hook then. Anyway, three plus years later and we are now married. The other women with their bar-hopping and dancing and mundane fun all lost out. I got the one that likes to play evil elf swordmages.
Is it in poor form to respond to this kind of thing? Because man, I'm sitting here with a fish, a barrel, and a loaded gun, and damn if I don't want to use them together somehow.
That was a great reply, I have to say.
Oh, and to the OP? I agree. I need to get laid more.

People need to be careful about the whole goal to get laid thing. We had a drunk devil worshipper pop up at my job the other day. Starting hitting on all the females at work while shouting some gibberish about Lucifer and God's slavery and stuff. It was hard to understand what he was saying in all honesty. We had to call the police to remove him.
Remember boys and girls, when you sell your soul to the devil to get laid, be sure to read the fine print. I suspect Mr. Devil Worshipper is getting laid by Big Bubba right now.

Didn't say I'd sell my soul. Just that it needs to happen more often.
