Do the Shrug!

Star-Boy is right to be wary of 31st century internet dating services, which in the future are run by a single "Big Computer" that shoots purple "Make-Out" rays indiscriminately at random couples sitting together. For only Star-Boy knows the dreaded truth... that the Big Computer's nascent A.I. has developed some rather lascivious tastes of late and as such has been 'deciding' on a series of curious matches between the teen Legionaires (including but not limited to Triplicate Lass with herself, Element Lad with Mon-El while Invisible Kid watches... invisibly, Superboy with himself thanks to the Legion's handy Time Bubble and Chameleon Kid with Light Lass while Chameleon Kid has shape changed into Light Lass... there are other matches both too lurid and complicated to be mentioned here... but know that there will be Proty!).
Poor Star-Boy soon becomes jaded by the whole scene - choosing to grow a beard and time travel back to the early 21st century where he currently hangs out at bars until closing, collects 'vintage vinyl' and spends his days idly working on a screen play about a terrible future of sentinent voyeur computers.
Meanwhile will Phantom Girl ever get Superboy to do the 'Shrug' with her...?
