Dark haired, dark eyed SF seeks other S pals to bash the Crushes thread and form lasting alliance. Interests include playing cello, reading, writing, and raising hell. Please reply in writing to [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/007452.html). I think I prefer to be uncrushed. In fact I embrace it. I am reveling in my singleness over here. Oh yeah. -Heather ---

## [whine]I like to cook, I like to work with wood, I’m intelligent and creative, I’m patient, I’m easy going, I’m dedicated, and I like intelligent word play and puns (Be quiet all you you claim that that is oxymoronic.). So what if I’m overwieght, occasionally tactless, cynical, a bit of a know-it-all, and have a tendancy towards vehemince. I’m working on the weight, I’m slowly learning tact, and the others help make me unique.[champaigne] \>\>Being Chaotic Evil means never having to say your sorry…unless the other guy is bigger than you.\<\< —The dragon observes ---

OK, I confess. Even though I made a smart-ass, narcissistic remark in the other thread, in reality I have a major crush on _every single female_ who has posted to, or even just lurked at, this message board since its creation. Yep, that’s right ladies. You may now consider yourselves to be “crushed.” While I’m at it, I also have a major crush on every _future_ female poster/lurker. I have it covered. ---

I went from third most popular poster to Captain Anonymous in about two months. Waaah. Just kidding. I haven’t posted much lately, and I’ll bet most people here don’t even remember me, much less have a crush on me. * * * You say “cheesy” like that’s a **BAD** thing. ---

_Sigh_ You go away for just a few days…and everyone forgets about you. No body mentioned me by name either. So, I guess that makes me one of you guys. _Sigh_ Even Mr. Bear didn’t mention me, and I’m married to the guy. _Snifff!_ I’ll just hide out over here in the corner, by myself. yep, all by m y s e l f . All alone, sniff. I didn’t even rate a single mention. no, no, not a one…_snifff_ BTW, if anyone cares, I have a lot of crushes, I just can’t say them out loud.
