If you're a guy, you don't want to be fleeced at anything by a wench, trust me.

I remember the time I was at a conference with a female friend from my university. There was a pool table in the bar there. She said, "Hey, do you want a game?" Being a moderately reasonable snooker and pool player, I accepted, thinking I would have a comfortable victory.

I think I got two shots in before she cleared the table.


2022-07-28 Rerun commentary: Said female friend stayed in astronomy (which we were studying together) while I left the field to pursue a different career path. She's now very successful in that field. She even has an asteroid named after her!

It would be fitting if pool players also named a trick shot after her.
