Between the Star Wars prequels, the Matrix movies, and the Harry Potter books, I think I've had my fill of destined heroes who are Chosen by some prophecy which is either vague, obviously inaccurate, misinterpreted, or nearly nonsensical. Not going to get into the specifics of each one, because I'm sure they've already been picked apart in each's relative discussions. It's just enough.
That being said, maybe Hatrack needs a Chosen One. Hmmm... Rivka is the Chosen One!

I read this title as that you were tired of half-baked dentistry, and was curious what was going on with your teeth now.

Now that rivka is chosen, can we come up with an evil that she must overcome in order to save us all?

And what kind of destiny is it. Is it the one where the fabric of the universe is rearranged so a person can meet a certain fate? Or is it just the eventual choices that will lead to a chain of causality that lead to the same fate?
Either way- we need to be proven that Rivka is The chosen one. It's one thing to say someone is chosen- but to be The chosen- that's different.

Proof? You can see pretty easily in that first post that I chose her. There is also not more than one of her. Rivka = The one who was chosen = The chosen one.

Ahem. The Rivka is out at the moment. However, if you wish to speak with The Chosen One, I would be happy to book an appointment for you to consult with her. For a small fee, of course.
Please be aware that The Rivka is fully booked for the remainder of the month of August, and fairly heavily committed for the month of September. However, we will do our best to fit you into The Rivka's busy schedule.

But who is going to play the role of old-mentor-who-dies-half-way-through-the-adventure during Rivkas quest?

Am too! My apartment's on the 3rd floor, 4th if you're looking at the building from the back. That's totally up in the sky, especially if you're standing pretty close the building when you look up!

Eh, I knew it was a possibly innacurate assumption, but ignored that to go for the joke.
You did choose to date her, in that you could have chosen not to. But you did not chose her to date, which wouldn't make her a chosen one.
"What offended me is that some of us don't have enough options that we can make choices like that." Ah, but then the assumption that you are a person who can make choices like that is a compliment. Although, "We think you should get more dates than you actually do" is a frustrating sort of compliment, admittedly.
If you're at all genuinely offended (despite the tongue-smilies) I do apologize. Maybe this mean girl is the evil Rivka should defeat?

oooh, are you gonna go to sea in a tub? Cause I always thought that'd be kind of uncomfortable.

Odd. I was just saying to my son this evening that if there are two other guys together in a tub, no matter what their professions are, he should not get into the tub with them.
If only more mothers would make sure that their sons knew these basic facts of life...
