So, Alice is a believer in the old adage: A good defense is a good offense! 
Sorry, Alice, but a nice try nevertheless!! You’ve gotten yourself in this pickle, and trying to turn this discussion around by focusing it on me, or anyone else, will prove futile!
My suggestion: Just let this thread die!
Alice,
I did what you asked me to, I quit commenting and giving unsolicited advice. I was wrong and I admit it, you do smile. I have to admit, I check this post every day to see what is going on, but again, I dont reply. Why the need to continue to blast?
O!K! S!k!y!K!i!n!g!
A!n!d! w!h!y! d!o!n!'t! y!o!u! g!o! l!a!y! d!o!w!n! w!i!t!h! a!
c!o!o!l! c!l!o!t!h! o!v!e!r! y!o!u!r! e!y!e!s?!!
Honestly, Kru-baby, I don’t care too much anymore - you’ll notice the lack of caps in any of my subsequent posts, but really, are you not finding this whole SkyKing ever so slightly amusing?
I feel a bit like a cat playing with one of those little fuzzy mouse things…if I weren’t stuck in front of my computer for the last 4 days doing transcription…but really - a girl’s gotta take a break now and again. 
Really, I am finding this entire Straight Dope thing amusing. As you can tell, I am not a seasoned Doper judging by the amount of post I have under my belt. Now that I can actually post stuff, I have become COMPLETELY addicted. I wasnt half as much addicted when I all I was able to do was read over my boyfriend’s (another Doper) shoulder. As for the SkyKing thing, it is quite amusing to see two people go at it. I am entertained (hum, whats that say about me, I wonder?? Probably nothing good). 
Eh, I wouldn’t worry about it - sometimes it fun to be a voyeur. 
Well, I guess I better get back to it… Page 113 coming right up - gah!
If this is in any way in reference to my post, allow me to clarify. Some of the original examples in your OP were undeniably obnoxious (e.g. anorexic, bitch, expensive). Some were obviously intended to be positive (nice abs, nice ass, etc.), although obviously delivered in a non-subtle, intrusive way. “You have a nice ass” is a lot different than “you have a really fat ass”, no matter how bluntly delivered.
You then went on to say that you don’t like people you don’t know to say anything about your appearance, even anything genuinely positive. You’ve also lamented the fact that if you were fat and complaining about comments on your appearance, the entire message board would be at your side, murmuring in angry rage on your behalf.
That situation: someone who feels bad about themselves and how they look has those feelings unnecessarily reinforced by a stranger.
Your situation: someone who looks good and has loads of self-confidence has to endure comments from people whose opinion she doesn’t care about.
Not exactly epic tragedy. Certainly annoying, sure. I can relate. I’m 6’8". I don’t go anywhere without random strangers asking me how tall I am and if I play basketball. What can you do?
So, although I’m sorry you sometimes feel uncomfortable or irritated by strangers talking about your looks, I don’t really feel sorry for you. These comments obviously aren’t hurting you, they’re just annoying you. Annoying shit happens.
Case in point: SkyKing.
<snicker>
You have my empathies, Giraffe! You’re 6’7" and NOT a basketball player? What do you do for an encore? You have a perfectly good reason for feeling “freakish”…you stand out from the norm, but in Alice’s case judging from her pics, she “looks” perfectly “normal” to me. She’s not someone who is going to stop me, or most other people, dead in their tracks so that they may stare incessantly and make comments on what a thing of beauty God has bestowed upon us! So, I also, do not feel sorry for her, but for you I’ll make an exception!
BTW…How’s the weather up there?
Ass’ Hat’ (as’ hat), n., 1. A person with their head so far up there own butt, you assume they are trying to wear there ass as a hat. 2. SkyKing
Now, SkyKing, I do feel sorry for. Do you really need attention this badly? Jesus, you’re like a kid at an adult dinner party, running around screaming to try to get people to notice you. You’re like Carrot Top, Balki and Erkle, all rolled into one.
Friggin’ spaz.
Ouch…!! Such a low-blow coming from a “lady”! Coming from you, I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised by now, right??
Alice…I have a question for you: Why did you choose the moniker “Alice-in-Wonderland”? Did you not read the book? It was actually one of my favorite’s when I was a kid, and I even did a book report on it in college. You reminded me in many ways of that little girl in the story! She was in a “mad” world with all these “mad” and funny creatures trying to help her to change and grow as a person. In many of my posts, I took on the identity of some of the different characters from the story. The creatures of Wonderland always have a reason and a method to their nonsense. They were constantly reasoning their way to absurd conclusions, to the reader’s delight and to Alice’s confusion.
However, I’ve noticed recently that many of the others who have bought a ticket to the show are confused and are alluding to the madness that this thread has devolved into. For that, I duly apologize for having “hijacked” this thread! It was fun for awhile, but seeing that no one else is joining me for a little fun in this “mad” world, and because it has devolved into name-calling and insults, I shall cease fire and desist (not detest) for my sins!
SkyKing
Giraffe…
If it makes you feel any better about yourself, then I want to congratulate you for being the “winner”! I’m sure you’ve managed to convince yourself as being the "good"guy on a white horse coming to aid a “lady” in distress, and fighting her battles for her!
Or else, why exactly did you NEED to come here and post? Well…judging from your last post, perhaps a slip of that 18" Freudian tongue of yours has already answered the question!
BTW…you 2 would make a nice couple! You’re like 2 peas in a pod!
One more thing, Giraffe!! In case you haven’t noticed, the title of this MB is, “The BBQ Pit”! It is one that is strictly dedicated for those who want to RANT, or who like reading them! If this MB is a little too RAUNCHY for you, then why the hell are you here? May I direct you to the KNITTING MB on another site? I’m sure you’ve managed to innocently wander in here, but I suggest you leave before the BIG BAD WOLVES make you want to hide that 6’8" frame of yours in your mommy’s crack!
Sorry! I know I’ve implied in a previous post that I don’t want to walk down that road, so I don’t want to come across as a hypocrite, but I do want you to know that I may be new here, but I’m a veteran of the “FLAME WARS” from other MB’s, so if you’re feeling a little feisty…let me know and I’ll be more than happy to accomodate you!! :wally
SkyKing, I will attempt to explain why you are coming across as an idiot:
You read the book “Alice in Wonderland”, which is also the handle of the OP. WE GET IT! Everyone caught the reference the first time, let alone the fifteenth. The problem is, it’s just not that clever. Or interesting. It’s tiresome. Let it go, already.
You don’t need to comment on every single post, especially when you have nothing to say.
You wouldn’t last two seconds in a true Pit flame war, dingleberry. It takes more than exclamation points and capital letters. Bragging about your past “FLAME WARS” does not earn you street cred. It makes you look like a loser.
Now go away.
Now I understand why after all these millions of years of evolution, you have evolved to be 6’8"! It’s to support that over-inflated ego of yours!! Why does Shelly’s Frankenstein come to mind whenever I see one of your posts? Tell me, what is that noise coming from your head when you walk around? It sounds like that of a B-B in a box-car! Don’t you think it’s time to get IGOR to give a sample of his DNA to determine who your real father is??
You are a perfect example, giraffe, of what can go wrong when scientists start fooling around with perfectly good HICK sperm and SHEEP eggs!! What a waste!! Or are you the result of some freakish accident created by some mad scientist in Brazil who, being a believer in Hitler’s dream of creating a race of GIANTS, managed to creat a GIANT with B-B for a brain!
Now, why don’t you be a nice big boy and stop playing with the Doctor’s computer before he catches you and puts you in that straight-jacket again and locks you up in that padded cell!
Vintery, mintery, cutery, corn,
Apple seed and apple thorn;
Wire, briar, limber lock,
Three geese in a flock.
One flew east,
And one flew west,
And one flew over the cuckoo’s nest.
Wow - was that supposed to be a flame?
So, now you want to critique my posts? OK! So, what do you suggest? Next time, shall I include a lot of CUSS words, as is your practice, in order to give it more emphasis?
Your pathetic attempt at sarcasm reminds me of a hyena which takes advantage of an opportunity to take a free nip at a creature which is larger and more ferocious than itself, but only if there’s another hyena, or two, around to help should it get into trouble! ROFLMAO!
BTW, Alice, giraffe’s comments were NOT flattering to you, so…GET A CLUE!
Sorry, it looks like you’ve gotten into a ‘the enemy of my idiot is my friend’ situation, and you, SkyKing, are everyone’s idiot.
Wikkit, another hyena, has joined the fray! Geeesh!! LMAO!
“Everyone’s idiot”?? Did you nominate yourself as the “leader” of this MB and taken it upon yourself to speak on behalf of “everyone”?? I’m sure the others can think for themselves and make comments on their own and don’t need you insulting their intelligence!
Let’s see…you’re the guy who posted earlier in this thread that you didn’t understand what this thread was all about!! I duly apologize for not keeping you in mind when I posted! In the future, I promise to “dumb-down” my posts so that the likes of you may “play” along!
Now, don’t you think you should get back to playing your favorite video game, “Wikkit”? And always keep in mind that familiar quote from the game: “Get Cocky, Get Dead!”
