Ask the hamsterette!

I was undecided about whether to post this here or in IMHO. If the mods feel it’s necessary to move it, then go ahead. Some of the “Ask the…” threads have been in MPSIMS, and some in IMHO.

I’ve read some of the recent “Ask the…” threads, and decided to get in on the fun. Trouble is, I’m not a real expert on anything (not even twins, birthdays, or my friends :wink: ), so this will have to be a very general thread. So if you want to ask me anything[sup]1[/sup], now’s the time. (I will answer your queistions[sup]2[/sup]…) I may not be offering this opportunity again, so best get in while the going’s good. :smiley:

Disclaimer: I am not a hamster, nor am I affiliated with the board hamsters. No supplication you make to me will result in any more increases in board speed. It’s just something Spoz called me once, and I found it amusing enough to use. :smiley:

[sup]1[/sup]Anything, that is, that doesn’t contravene board rules.
[sup]2[/sup]If I feel that a question could be better handled through email (or better not to be ansewred at all), I will tell you so. My email is in my profile, so if I do tell you that, it shouldn’t be a problem to email me.

Darn. I should really preview. Gah… darn coding. Can someone please fix the size tags? Thanks.

Do you think I’m a boob for failing to hook up with you for coffee when I spent a week in Richmond last month?

I do.

…I thought “ask the…” threads were frowned upon now…

Ok, I got one for you…You have 9 posts per day. How did you find the SDMB and how long did it take you to figure out you were an addict (and why?)?

There’s nothing wrong with being an addict BTW, I’m one too. I just read more than I post.

Do you work? If you do, what do you do?

I second Francesca’s question and add:

Have you ever had a romantic relationship? How was it? How did it end? Would you like to have one? Would the person have to be as religious as you are (meaning, very involved in church, etc)?

Oo! Ooo! I have a question:

Flamsterette, how YOU doin’? :wink:

will you be posting anytime soon?

hehe ok lets give her a chance to answer people

How many questions are you expecting to receive:))))
Do you want more???

:))

Hey, kids, it’s 4:20am over here-- I’m sure she’s sleeping. Why the heck don’t I try that? And Flammy, why’d you open this threat after midnight, anyway? :stuck_out_tongue:

Flamsterette_X …Did you ever wave your hands in the air like you just don’t care, and did you glide by the people as they start to look and stare? :smiley:

Who on earth is this Spoz character? The bolding of his name makes me think I should know who this is. I’ve been wanting to ask that for a while, so I guess this is a great opportunity!

Bosda: word up!
[sub]I really had nothing else to add to this thread, but I had to reply to that![/sub]

I never said (or thought) you were a boob, Larry… so at least take heart in that! But you were the one who emailed me about it, then the plans failed to materialize, so what can I say? That stuff happens. Though if it happens again… I could say you were a boob. As it is… for some reason, I still think you’re a good guy, if a little disorganized. :slight_smile:

I have no idea whether these types of threads are frowned upon now, Cisco… there’s been a bunch of them recently, and I decided to jump on the bandwagon while I could.

As for how I found the SDMB, look here: In which I reflect upon my 500 posts, and my time here at the SDMB…

I don’t think it took me very long to figure out that I was an addict… maybe about a couple of weeks or so. Why? Well, I liked the “community feel” of the place, and it was one where I could find a niche… I could make friends here, and have. I will admit to posting quite a bit when I first joined… now, not so much. But sometimes I will… :smiley:

Francesca, at present I am looking for a job… either working with computers (word-processing / data-entry) or working with children. Diverse, I know. I have volunteered in each of these fields (“firmly Awana stands…”), but that doesn’t mean I know what I’m doing!

Anahita, see my answer to Francesca up above. :slight_smile:

No, I have not had a romantic relationship, although I imagine it would be nice to have one at some point during my life. Yes, I would like to have one, and he would have to share the same beliefs as me. Degree of involvement in church issues might not be a huge factor, because I wouldn’t want to set that as a condition of our relationship. Who knows? Down the road, I might not be that involved in church, and he might be really involved.

I’m doing just fine, Astroboy14! :wink: Definitely not complaining about much over here. And how are you doing?

I’m posting now, **maybelze05 **. Good enough for you, or what? :smiley:

I wasn’t expecting anything like 100 questions, Watermelon Man. :slight_smile: In fact, I am grateful for any and all questions I receive. If you have more questions for me, I will be glad to answer them. If not, that’s perfectly all right.

Larry, good question. Why don’t you try sleeping at 4:20 AM? :smiley:

Well, I was going to start the thread when I first had the whim to (at around 9:30-ish last night), then decided I’d better think about it a while. At around 10:45, I realized I still wanted to post it, but then got distracted. Decided I’d better post it before I went to bed, though.

Bosda… um, no. However, I have been known to start laughing maniacally to myself in bookstores and on the streets. I can’t help it… something will strike me as funny! So beware if you’re ever in Vancouver and you see this Chinese gal laughing to herself… it may very well be me. :eek:

scout1222, feast your eyes on these links:

How do you explain something to somebody who’s never heard of it?

Introducing the one and only Spoz! :slight_smile:

Here are the ten posts he’s made so far.

This is his profile.

If you want to know more about him, I guess you can always read his blogspot. It’s insane, demented, and crazy… but in a good way! :slight_smile:

No problem at all, Skerri. though if you actually had a question, that would be nice, too… just kidding :slight_smile:

Is it true that all you guys are descended from a single litter found in Syria in 1930?

Oh wait, that’s actual hamsters :o

No one has yet fixed her coding.

Step lively lads, this is a hands on job - and I call first dibs!

Xavier, I have no idea about actual hamsters… I’m not too sure that would be true. Who knows, though. It’s true nobody has fixed my coding. Maybe what I need to do is email all the mods for this forum. If I was at home, I might use the “report this post to a moderator” button. But since I’m at my brother’s… I’ll use email. :slight_smile:

I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Hamsters can’t usually type that fast either. There are exceptions though.

Not worrying about it much at all. :slight_smile: I did just email all the mods for this forum, so it should be fine whenever they get the chance to get to it.

I have a question: Are you really as cute as you sound like you are, or is that an illusion? :slight_smile:
