Wait, I thought you said before that you hadn't it IN you to be mean?

*stony glare* That all depends. I'm not a mean person for NO REASON. Its not in me to be mean because I feel like it, and some poor souls on the recieving end.

But when my posterior is being abused by random blokes who I hardly know, I take exception to this. Great exception. I gave warning, it was not heeded, and I simply gave just restitutions.

er.... uh... "so there!" *blushes and grins*

uh, nope, I'd say those are BAD ways to show her "you like her". Likewise, for me... *cough* yeah, I've had issues with guys thinking I was a "petting zoo", which led to me being really mean. I don't regret that a few of em weren't wearing plastic.

Talking to people and distracting them from fencing time is not cool. On the other hand, I've been known to stay pretty late after practice talking with friends. Practice time is for fencing, after is for all the socializing. And after that is for homework till 3am, and then to bed. Ugh.

hmmm..you could either mean plastic as a chest protector, or as a..err..."candy dish"..

and the same with me. i usually stay atleast an hour after my private lessons talking to friends, more with groups..

I was a member of a fencing club that socialized all through
the time allocated for fencing. Anytime was a good time for some.
As it turned out ...those of us that didnt make as much time for it...were the ones more interested in competition. We could defeat all of those doing the chatting.

Glad you added this, I was quite frightened for a moment there...

Wait I think I'm being mocked. And Inqartata, don't blow my cover, but I'm not much to fear all 'round.

I would be refering to the... er.. candy dish. I've never heard it called THAT before.

It was good for potential offspring that a couple of them were wearing plastic.

I think Army has a pretty good point about being single. I think that most of us who really want a relationship are looking for something that isn't half hearted. I suspect that to really be able to spend all the time that you need to on important things in your life, sometimes preclude important people. So, not always a good mix at certain times.

Sorry, I'm really tired. What I mean is, school and fencing, for instance, are both things that need a LOT of time. I'd hate to slight any one of them. Add a significant other into the mix, and are you REALLY going to have time to give each of them what they deserve? I don't want to short my school work, or my fencing, but I don't want to find myself saying, "Sorry dear, but I've got to go. Tomorrow."

Likewise, Blue Falcon, you've brought up something that people seem to overlook. There ARE people out there who have a pretty darn good reason to feel like they're not worth anything. Its not to say they're really ugly, horrible people, like they think. But hey, if you're told it often enough, you start to believe it. Sometimes it just needs someone who can see through it, and maybe help them see it too.

Its great to say, "just believe in yourself", but sometimes people haven't been given anything to believe in. Someone took it away.

Interestingly enough, it doesn't change once you're out and working. If you really love your work and your social life, it CAN be hard to insert a significant other in there. There's that whole work/life balance thing but God knows it's hard to do. One must actually make CHOICES and live with the consequences of these choices. Like, "Hmmm......... I can accept this job but I know I won't have a life. But I'll be paid oodles and oodles of money! But if I take this OTHER job, I won't get as much money but I'll at least have chance to HAVE a life. No guarantee that I WILL get a life but still...."

The real world, in some senses, CAN suck.

Yes -- some people may not see their lives and their persona as being worth much. I would like to think that with the proper guidance, support, and help, these people CAN see themselves in a new light. Problem is, a lot of these people don't really have anyone who really cares for them. They probably have people surrounding them who only see the negative and reinforce the negative. Or they have people around them who only use them for their own ends -- sex, advancement, money, etc., etc. And that really really sucks. I think EVERYONE should have a fair chance at happiness. No one should be handicapped in this area. Everyone should have a fair shot at achieving or at least pursuing said happiness. AFter all, wasn't there something about "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"?

No, it's not that someone took it away. They may not be ABLE to see it -- what was taken away was their vision that would have allowed them to recognize that worth.

Oh, and it seems to happen to women a lot.

Hey... watch out. You never know when a girl sleeps with a weapon just to give someone with the wrong idea what-for. And its neither free nor for sale. So there.

*goes back to check if some other picture got posted by mistake* *looks* Nope, nothing anglic. *puts a hand on your forehead* Blue, you doin' ok? You must be running a feaver... Maybe too much alcohol, and you're seeing a nice blurry halo?

Just cause I want a covalent ego doesn't mean I can't have one! And VSEPR was good stuff. Actually, all of that was FUN... though I regret I remember less than I ought, and more than is right. And what if my ego is actually related to peroxide, and is highly unstable?

*gets a nice ball of snow and wipes grin from your face* Much better. Of course I can keep other things to myself, silly. I'm not the one threatening with an extension cord.

Hey, don't look at me. Chances are I didn't do it, or wont claim it. Unless it was very evil, and a history book kind of "I did it."

Hmmmm............. yes, she may sleep with a weapon. But, hey -- as long as she doesn't use it!

It could be the alcohol or the festive season. I don't know! I'm not myself nowadays! AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!! Stop the insanity!

Ok. I'm better now.

Hey, what's this? You're turning down compliments?! Ok, are YOU running a fever? Or are you just not used to it?

Hmmmm............ your ego IS related to peroxide! But, hold on. Which peroxide? Or do you mean a hydoxide? Like sodium hydroxide? Or shall we say maybe muriatic acid? As in it dissolves anything it comes in with?!

*wipes snow from face and grabs Myra about the waist and gives her a big smooch!*

Hey, what can I say? It was the mistletoe!

And yes, I did it. Yes, that was me! Woo hoo!

(hey, nice kiss!)

ok, so I've rather lost track of these threads. But I'm thinking its the How to get a girlfriend thread, page 15-ish? Soldier and I both have something posted, I think.

I guess I was willing to post there, but not on the "post your picture" Thread. How sad. Yes, Myra does have some shame.

Yes Myra HAS shame. And that's why it's so fun to tease her!

Hmmmm............. "random blokes who I hardly know"............. does this mean I have leave to do said whacking?

*ducks as Myra starts throwing everything but the kitchen sink!*

I would be refering to the... er.. candy dish. I've never heard it called THAT before.

Ugh. Well actually, if they complain you can just tell them that they should have parried better!
