> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Brynda \* > **A bit of proof, you say? I know GuanoLad hasn’t gotten lucky in quite a while, but he also posted about taking pictures of nude women. hmmmmm…** You have no idea how frustrating it is to be so close to naked women and not be able to do anything at all but watch. And I’m talking about stuff no stripper or lap-dancer ever does. Then there’s the fact that I’m trying to videotape this for practical and artistic appeal, not just to ogle nudey bits in close up detail. ---

In the upper right corner of this thread there are some icons, one if which is labeled “profile”. Click here. You have to enter your name (screen name) and password. do so. Click “submit”. The next screen has all sorts of information about you. One block, near the bottom, is called “signature”. Type what you wish to appear. Good luck, and welcome.

I’m cute as the dickens but nobody here can see this because my pictures not up. And I don’t know how to flirt because In Real Life people just come up to me and I giggle and run away. Really, I am cute, honest! The only famous person people usually compare me with is Bjork, but I have a pitifully american accent and I can’t fly into the air when I wear orange dresses. Funny little paper airplanes drift out of my head at odd moments, and some people think THAT’S cute, but it makes my scalp itch later. If nobody flirts with me in THIS thread, I’m just going to go home and play with my salamanders and SCREW YOU GUYS! ---

You mean you don’t get flirted with in the regular threads? What are people thinking? 😕 JFTR, I can’t flirt with you. You like bugs. Bugs are scary. ---

**Duke** , sweetie, how You doin’? I _do_ remember you saying I was beautiful. ::heartfelt sigh:: Now that I have seen your picture…whoo, baby! **Meephead** , that pouncing and flirting is exactly what I would expect from a meephead! Are there some things you take your time with, Mister? 😉 And last but not least, **JBirdman12** , the last time I flirted with someone with a number at the end of his username, it turned out to be his age. I am afraid to flirt with you–14 year-olds are my absolute lower limit. Plus, for goodness’ sake, you can’t be a “ravager of planets” and expect folks to toy with you. ---

Hello Bashere. I’m sorry I never flirted with you before. i still don’t really know how but since you were nice enough to ask about my salamanders, here’s a story about my favorite one, Buford- which I am too lazy to make a hyperword link thingy to: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=46768](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=46768) ---
