I like the fact that I appear in both of these images to people. Makes me more versatile. No smacks today, I received too many hits in the ass today from complete strangers, so I don’t feel like handing out spankings. ---

**Welfy** , for some reason I always picture you to look like one of the characters from _The Dark Crystal_ but just painfully cute. **dropzone** , I always picture you to be tall with slicked back hair and Top Gun sunglasses with this really cocky smile. Anyone care to give a fictitious description of me? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by evilbeth \* > \*\ ***dropzone** , I always picture you to be tall with slicked back hair and Top Gun sunglasses with this really cocky smile. > > Anyone care to give a fictitious description of me? \*\* I remember when I was tall. It was ‘68 (big year all over) and I was in the eighth grade. At 5’-10 1/2" I was third tallest boy and fourth tallest eighth-grader. Then other people grew. Otherwise, damned close. The hair is slicked back every morning after my shower and falls where it may the rest of the day. The sunglasses are Wayfarers (fifties cool), not Top Gun wraparounds (as I recall). The cocky smile is more arch or even just dopey but there is usually a smile of some sort. As for fictitious descriptions of women, I don’t do it. I always assume they are beautiful, aged just right, rounding up to eighteen or down to twenty-one or thirty or fifty-five, depending on what would be least silly but still nowhere close to accurate. None are older than fifty-five, though, especially if they are WAY more. A gentleman does not notice any imperfections in a woman. Every woman he is with is the most beautiful woman he knows. Which, since I am talking to you, **Beth** , means you are the most beautiful woman I know. Not that **Scotticher** is any slouch! (Whew! Caught myself at the last moment!) ---

_Quote from Homer_ > [@](#): > > \*\*Rachelle: Rachelle, Rachelle… I see someone wearing a floral print dress, with a thin white lace edge along the bottom, and the arms. You are standing on an open plain, the sun setting behind your back, as a slight wind whips your brown hair around your tanned face. A dog barks in the distance. \*\* I haven’t worn floral print since I was 8 and my face isn’t very tan. But I do have brown hair! At least you didn’t picture me in a pair of overalls with a cowboy hat on, chewing on hay and living on a farm! Your description was nice compared to some of stereotypes of Kansas life I’ve heard over the years! And I have to say Scotticher, every time I see your name I think of scotch tape! ---

Blue or green eyes. Probably a witch’s cat despite not being coal black. Into everything, but stealthy about it. Oh & evilbeth - hopefully lasting longer than Discord did! ---

No, no, of course not. Don’t hit me, it was just a momentary brain blip.
