Damn it, let us edit at night! Yo, **Monkey** (I think I’m going to call you that from now on, if that’s ok), I’m going to the Scorps game again this weekend. Glass seats, baby!!! ---

Just kidding about the damn it part. Oh, and the “season ticket holder” party is Friday night. Our group qualified to go somehow, even though we only have tickets for 6 games. ---

[QUOTE=Hockey Monkey] Hunh, so that’s how I got where I am today. 😃 (IRL I am a manager.) Unfortunately there is no way for me to sleep my way past the glass ceiling.

[QUOTE=HazelNutCoffee] And I’m not **Hockey** , I’m **HazelNut**. I know it’s confusing, because we both begin with H and we both have boobs, but try to pay better attention, mmmkay? 😉 [/QUOTE] I’m sure they’ll pay plenty of attention, but not to your name. ---

Hats off to anyone who can though. That would take some serious skillz. Pima = high grade long staple cotton grown in the San Juaquin Valley of California spinner = person who spins yarn from staple fibers I used to be in textiles but still have a fondness from material made from Pima cotton. Pima was also the pet name my ex-husband used for me. It meant Pain In My Ass. 😃 ---

[del]So there I was, trying to figure out the best way to post in this thread without looking too suspicious. I was going to wait until morning to stop in and say “hi”, but I thought that not posting at night might look suspicious. Then I realized I was reading way to much into the importance of the first post - which looked suspicious. Then I thought about actually typing out all my thoughts, then putting a line through them, but I’m not sure if that would be too cutesty. So, I finally decided to just skip all that and just say “Hi”[/del] Hi Everyone! Serious question, and I don’t think this counts as strategerizing. Are we supposed to take on a persona based on the characteristics we were given? Or do we just post like usual and use the characteristics a different way? Or are we supposed to just go along with the game and it will make sense later? ---

Wow, rowdy crowd in here. I think we’re all in a need of a bit of sensitivity training. Perhaps a nine-part workshop? ---

I’m like **Brewha** , except that I wasn’t sure how to test the waters by what input I initially had. So I too am just gonna go with a “Hey!” shout out to everyone and say that I hope I’ll be doing this right. Thanks to our lovely moderators for helping me out and I’m now caught up on (what I think) the basics. Maybe I’ll make it through the night. 🙂 ---

Hey, since I don’t receive any attention to them at all, may my boobs play? ---

[QUOTE=Pleonast] Focus, people! We’re looking for Scum, not Boobs. [/QUOTE] Hey now, you should know as well as anybody that the tried and… not so true methods of finding scum could use some work. The tried and very true method of finding Boobs has yet to fail. 🆒 Besides, I think **Hazlenut** just started this line of conversation because she can’t remember anybody’s gender. Once all the women flash some skin, I’m pretty sure we’ll remember. Even if it takes flash cards (Ha, I made a pun!), or some type of memory game, where you have to match the handle to the face to the boobies. Pictures, ladies, we need some pictures here. Otherwise we’re going to call you dude, bro, and man throughout the game. ---
