Aww, you’re so cute! (and now you probably hate me because I “awwed” you).

At least you said “cute” and not “so much like a teddy bear,” or, God forbid, “nonthreatening.” 🙂

OK then, off home to be a loser at the gym on Friday night then hang around the house with my cats and a curry…

But I’ve got a big happy on, compliments suit me! Thanks all! 🙂

After looking through ten pages of this thread I must say, Dopers are a damn fine looking bunch!

I’ll play…here I am, last Halloween.

Okay so I’ve only read the first 4 pages of this thread, but so far there are some very nice looking people in this thread! 🙂

I have a lousy photo of me… it’s not as good as I’d like but for now it’ll have to do. Brace yourself. [Here](http://www.eknent.com/etc/uagm_c.png). Warned ya. :o

Oddly enough, **Roland Orzabal** looks almost exactly like I pictured, which was nothing like the real Roland Orzabal. :smack: Go figure.

Okay, time to read pages 4 through 10…

## Er, sorry. Was I drooling out loud? I’d forgotten that you were the Doper formerly known as roadkiller, but now I remember your pics in a previous photo thread. Your latest pic is just as lovely. 🙂

and **Susan Sto Helit** … Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…

I just wanted to second this. I’m one of those who has to have the makeup. I’m an ogre without it, but with it I’m fairly presentable. With makeup, good lighting, and a nice airbrush artist, and a couple of drinks in the viewer, I can look almost as good as dare\_devil\_007 in her picture.

Now, see, that’s a step in the right direction. Mrs. Six used to think she was completely straight. For that matter, so did I. If you need some help setting up an experiment, you know, just in case you need to confirm your straight-ness, I know a couple of cute Korean girls who would be willing to help out.

Oh and that offer is good for dare\_devil\_007, Susan Sto Helit, raz, LifeOnWry, Alias, LilCutie, dare\_devil\_007, Flipstrip, Girl from Mars, and . . .

Oh, hell, rather than listing everyone, we’ll just make it an open invitation to all of the Doperwomen in the thread. Orientation testing services open to all.

Paraphrasing from David Hyde Pierce’s People’s Choice Award acceptance speech:

I used to wonder what kind of people posted to threads like this. Obviously, it’s the smartest and best looking people in the world.

Let me get this straight: not only are you trying to lure all the hotties over to the other side, you’re also shutting all the guys out from orientation testing? Damn lesbians. Can’t trust 'em.

You’re invited too! We love gay guys! You’re great for opening pickle jars and getting stuff off the high shelves, and advice on makeup and fashion.
