I keep scanning past the title of this thread and reading it as **Meet your meds** ---

Is it weird that all three of these folks are really close to how I’d pictured them? (except they’re less scary in real life…) ---

Ellen looks exactly how I expected her. I always felt of her as rather motherly, like if I dropped by her house right now she’d have a cup of tea on and give me a hug and sit down to chat. Marley doesn’t, at all - he looks waaaay nicer in real life than the persona on the boards. I admit I had no preconceived notions of twicks, so - you look just like a twicks, I guess! Thanks for sharing! 🙂 ---

> [@twickster](#): > > Thank god y’all were behaving yourselves last night – the entire Cafe Society moderator staff was offline having dinner together in NYC. Very fun evening! > [(Left to right: **twickster, Ellen Cherry, Marley23** )](http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g161/twickster/misc%20shit/NYCmodfest009.jpg) Just as evil and demonic as I always pictured. Excuse me whilst I choke back the bile. Impressive that someone was able to produce a camera to actually capture the essence of hellfire incarnate without the device instantly turning to ash or snakes or two-headed dogs with Hitler faces. Fie on you for exposing us to this horror. ---

I’ve never actually looked at **Marley** and **Ellen Cherry**. The latter looks exactly as I pictured her, but the former looks different: I’d pictured a bigger, older guy. He looks so friendly and cool, like the RAs at my college dorm. Oh, and **twickster** , be careful if you have a beau: apparently putting your arm around someone is something only couples do. 😃 I just had to break my rule about not bringing up older threads in current ones. It’s RuleOfFunny. ---

Ah, Meeks, yes I am motherly. It’s the curse one bears for producing children. ::shoos one of the three I have from underfoot:: I’m more likely to offer ice coffee, or [checks clock] a glass of wine to droppers-by. 😉 Unfortunately, your summation destorys the illusion I have that I’m viewed as a cool hot babe. Like I haven’t been for, you know, lo these many decades.
