I deliver this information to you without comment.  From Canada.com:

If you have a date planned with an Android user, you may be in luck. A new study has found Android users are more likely to have sex on the first date than other smartphone users. They are also the most likely to have a one night stand.

The study, commissioned by dating site Match.com, compared which smartphones Canadians own with their dating habits. 

Okay, so it only applies to Canadians, which may or may not be a dealbreaker for you. On the other hand, there are drawbacks to getting involved with an iPhoner:

If the person in the cubicle next to you has an iPhone, watch out. iPhone users are the most likely to have an office romance. Nearly 25 per cent of iPhone users have had an office romance in the past five years, according to the study.

If you do shack up with that cute receptionist or hot young intern at work, watch out for clinging tendencies. The study also found iPhone users will call or text the day after a date, while Android or Blackberry users wait a couple days.

And friends don't let friends drive who use BlackBerrys:

Liquid courage fuels dates and BlackBerry users are the most likely to drink. The study found 72 per cent of BlackBerry users will drink alcohol on a first date.

No information on folks who still use flip phones.

Careful, Pilli, I hear James Woods reported some serious bugs in the NEXUS-6 model’s programming… · 5 minutes ago

That's funny because my day job is software testing.

So barbara's one, I'm two...who are the other two? Are they on Ricochet? Is it time to schedule a flip-phone-owner meetup? Will we be able to coordinate it using our antique phones?

This makes perfect sense. The federal government gives out mostly BlackBerrys to employees. My husband has two, one for each agency he works for, which explains our impressive collection of whiskey and bourbon in the liquor cabinet. So, I guess it's not that the gov't is inefficient, it's just inebriated. All the more reason to vote a Mormon into the Oval Office.

Hmmm. If all the cordials were removed as well as viewing porn on the job, perhaps goverment employees could be more productive. Good Luck there.

I thought I was going about this dating business all wrong, but in actuality it was my android smart phone giving off the wrong impression.
