Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

But I am intrigued!

The story:

A few months ago, a friend of mine from back home sent me a link to a webpage where you can post your profile so friends can visit it and see where you are today. Since a few of my old friends were listed, I joined, thinking, ah what the heck. It’s kind of fun to see where everyone is today and read their profiles.
What I didn’t count on was other people from around the world finding my profile and sending me messages. However, agoraphobe that I am, I am pretty comfortable behind the keyboard, and allowed a few new people onto my contact lists. Most of them seem friendly and kind and just interested in making new online friends.
So, everything is fine, and I’m always careful about just who I add to my contact list (you can choose to not respond or block people from the get go, so they can never bother you again - you are given your own little message centre so no one gets your real email unless you give it out). I can check out their profiles to see if I think I might get along with them and make my choice to add them or ignore them.
This morning, I get up and decide to check my little inbox. Two new messages. One fellow wants to add me to his contact list. I check out his profile. Oooh, he’s a handsome, 26 year old Egyptian who looks a lot like Neil Tennant when he was younger. swoon! His interests are similar to mine, so I add him to my list, humming DJ Culture. (hey, in reality, Neil just wouldn’t be that into me. Let me have my daydreams!) Okay, next message …
Another request to be added as a contact. Okay, let’s check out the profile first. No profile picture, that’s okay. We can’t all be young Neil Tennants. Well, it looks like he is also originally from Canada, and moved to the US. Ah, he lives in a nearby county, as a matter of fact. Okay, cool, so maybe he just wants to contact me because he had a similar immigration experience. Still… let’s see what his interests are.
No descriptions, no interests listed. Okay. Looks like one for the ignore list. I just don’t add people who won’t at least make an effort to tell me something about themselves, especially since I’ve filled out my entire profile. I don’t like people knowing more about me than I know about them in these types of situations. But, ah, wait! There is one picture in his photo gallery! I’m still thinking of blocking him, unless that picture says a million words.

And boy, it says a million words! This is what I see.

Intriguing!

Ultimately, he ends up on my ignore list. There’s just too little information. But it keeps giving me great big belly laughs every time I look at that picture. Some people might be creeped out by it, but I can’t help but laugh. I mean, I’m even into that kind of thing, but only monogamously.

Thank you for the laugh this morning, anonymous dude. :smiley:

Heh heh. Well, at least he’s up front about it. Gotta admire that honesty.

3

True, true. If he’d just put more in his profile, I might have added him. Hey, we have similar interests! :stuck_out_tongue:

4

You’ve been a very naughty girl! Time for your spanking! I never did get the spanking=>horny connection, but I do know you’re not a freak. Not for that anyway. :slight_smile:

5

Darn, I’m in the computer lab, so I can’t look at the picture lest it be…odd. I’ll have to wait till the afternoon. No one spoil it for me, please!

I think I have an inkling about it, though. :smiley:

6

It’s absolutely work safe. It takes a minute to even figure out what it is. Totally work safe though. Not a dildo or anything.

7

No. Give them to me. grab yank

8

begins to put up a fight

Ahhhh … in the end, I’d lose anyway. :wink:

Just give me one dance with him, just one! Every time I hear DJ Culture, I close my eyes and just wish I could dance, (oddly) ballroom style, with Neil Tennant. I don’t want anything more than that. Just that much makes me feel euphoric …

Er … ahem. Don’t ask. Weird things make me happy. :smiley:

I have to wonder about the anonymous guy, though. I could interpret a few other things based on that picture. For example: he seems lazy. After all, it’s only a picture of a schematic, and not the real thing. Has he just not gotten around to finishing the product?

9

So which rowing team do you crew for, Anastasaeon?

10

Both. :smiley:

11

Ever heard “Miracles”?

12

You’re my kind of sick-o. :wink:

13

Currently in my playlist. It’s beautiful, isn’t it?

14

Yes, it’s just… odd.

Not at all what one might expect to see in someone’s personal photos, let alone the* only * picture in their group of personal photos. :confused: :eek:

15

What do you have against cricket players? :dubious:

16

Heartbreaking. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the most beautiful piece of orchestration I’ve heard from any musician.

17

The question is what she has against what part of a cricket player, and how fast and hard.
Trivia night tonight! Nudge nudge.

18

My Og! Cricket? That’s so much worse!

He hits harder than I thought! With accuracy! :eek:

19

I can’t make it tonight. Nudge nudge. That’s not suggestive nudging, I just nudge back when nudged. Nudge.

Hubby has to work late and I can’t make the walk. My ankle is messed up from some unknown nighttime assassin. Probably bumped it on the way to the bathroom. Or there really is a nighttime ankle assassin on the loose in Ballard. I’ll check FOX news.

20

Heh. I also wonder why you’d have that as your only picture.
