Personally I am a very,very private person .
In personality I am genuinlly an outgoing sociable extrovert and can fend off peoples enquiries without answering a single question if I so choose to .
Without them even being aware that they haven’t had a single answer let alone think that I’ve been rude to them.
This of course does not apply to officials questoning me as a part of their work.
There are some things that I have kept to myself for many years and will most probably take with me to the grave .
If Iever am a little worried that I might have let something slip thenI give out misinformation or undermine my own credibility.
An old saying is that the best way to mislead is to tell the truth unconvincingly.
So can I say that I have been shagging Jennifer ,whats her name ?Allison ,rigid ever since Friends finished.
And what ARE my dark secrets I hear you pondering?
Well put it this way,you will never EVER find out in what year that I last bought a round of drinks.
And as to the mysterious disappearance of next doors yappy little dog with a penchant for ankles…That too will forever remain unexplained my friends…
Being serious I tell things about myself on these boards that I would never do in real life because of the anonymity,if ever I went to a Dopefest I’d have to go as a lurker and its unlikely that I’d ever make a real life friend from the boards,sad though that sounds.
That said a Doper who is/was a very good mate of mine IRL even before I became a Doper knows a lot about my past and present but he knows that if he ever says too much the Gerbil gets it…
And now into the night just like a slightly darker shadow L4L flits into the darkness.
Who knows where?
On what strange esoteric mission is he bound?
Does anyone really give a flying fuck?
When will he just shut the fuck up for fucks sake instead of wittering on and on and on …
I’ll get my coat.
