      Why don't you engage her in a conversation about nipple pinching and watch her burn rubber back peddling?

          Ah, now i'm getting it. Look, since gay marriage was approved the other day in Canberra, she wants to get hitched? I dunno, perhaps i'm drawing a longish bow, and i'm not talking strombow. What happens if the nipple pinching idea backfires?!!

            Is it still bigamy if one spouse is a boy and the other a girl?

              Dunno, might be unstrayan, but the libs are now challenging the gay marriage legislation just passed, in the high court. That, is unstrayan. What is wrong with these eeedgits?

                        Happs, is this a temporary work relationship or will it be ongoing, and will you have to actually go to drinks with her?

                        If it's only for a short time you might be able to answer by focussing on the celebration/relaxation aspect rather than the wine. You could say something along the lines of "yeah, it will be nice to get out of here and kick back" or if she mentions wine o'clock you could say "yep, there's nothing better than the end of the work day". Then if you do have to go to drinks with her you could just order something NA, and if she makes a fuss you could make one of the dozens of excuses why you're temporarily not drinking.

                        Actually, if it's ongoing, you could do pretty much the same, but when you get to the drinks it's up to you whether you want to make an excuse or just say you don't drink.

                        It really sucks that it's such a big deal though.

                        I went shopping with my sister the other day, and when I asked her if she wanted to have a break for coffee, she said "no, I'd rather get this finished so I can have a glass of champagne". It was 10 o'clock on a Saturday morning!

                              I don't know which I find more disturbing; the vast amount of alcohol or the laminating of oneself to another person for 50 years
