Oof, hit submit too soon.

I wanted to second (third? huh?) the CG comment. You really do look CG. If it’s the webcam, I’m totally buying one. I would kill to get my complexion that smooth.

No, but coming here just to pit stuff and snark at other posters…

“but it’s still making my ego bigger”

Ego isn’t the only thing that is oversized. Look, whoever you are… let the girl go… release her parents, give her the antidote, and for god sakes let her out of the corset.

You have to understand that some people are slow here. They’re going to come in and drool, and flirt, and it will take eons for many of them to get hit with the clue stick. By that time it isn’t funny anymore. It’s just kinda sad.

You DO realise with that and your looks, you’re now going to have every guy on the boards hitting on you? 🙂

Though to be fair, they pretty much hit on _all_ the new people…

I do notice that you seem to be wearing the same outfit in these recent pics as in your RMB pics, which I doubt were taken today. Now this could mean that it’s just a coincidence, or that you don’t have much of a wardrobe, or the “Hi Duke” sign was added to an existing pic. You facial expression seems to be rather constant.

Rather than a sign, how about crossing your eyes and sticking out your tongue?

I put that top on so that you’d see it was the same girl in the photos, ok, going to put the top back on, and cross my eyes…

**Jessica** , you pegged the Babe-O-Meter. I think the term

HOT!

applies here.  
Definitely needs to be said: How YOU doin’? 😉

You might have to hit me with that same stick… What are we talking about?

Look down. 😃

**Waverly** means you look a little too much like your namesake and it’ll get Doper-guys like **Mr. Bus** hitting on you.

As a mom-aged heterosexual female, maybe I can get away with saying what all the guys are thinking.

NICE RACK!

…I know I am partly responsible for my looks, but I don’t think I can be blamed for my body shape. Admitedly if I had the time, and could be bothered, I could go to the gym and starve myself, but I would rather be healthy and spend my time studying. And I am happy with my looks as they are, I see no point in changing them. Regardless of what you think of them, _I_ can cope with them.

And to all of that stuff about people hitting on me: I’m in Australia, if you are too, cool, let’s have a coffee…most of you are not. I don’t think people need to be worrying too much about it, I don’t see why it’s an issue.

Hey now!!! All I offered up was a simple “how YOU doin’?”

If I was going to hit on her, I’d be much, much farther out there.

Unless I was trying the “lay back and wait” approach. 😉
