Guys, I am overwhelmed at your replies to my story. Seriously, I didn't expect this; I was not going to make a fuss but I'm deeply affected by the responses to this thread (LoR's revenge :D). It has helped me see things about myself that I was less conscious of - and left me with a legacy...

Right, this will probably be the longest posting you'll ever come across. I don't apologise for that. For those of you who are interested I hope it will be diverting; for those of you who are not, zap that 'new posts' spot right now :D Before I found this forum I was probably a bit depressed...

Hi Waterstiller, I just quickly popped in to see what was going on! I have thought about this a lot and your post has helped to swing my decision. I will share with you the reason why I won't be posting here any more - and its not due to that link (which I hadn't noticed and was meant as a...

refreshed - definitely

Thanks Decaf - that was quick! Answering them on my own doesn't help so maybe I can answer here. Jokes - I don't find funny only when they are at the expense of the teller - how absurd am I type of thing. Ufc?? I only know that I dislike anything competitve - hate winning,hate losing, hate...

I would like to find out more about the T/F dimension. I get quite confused by my own preferences here. I am not a F. When I read my husbands religios books for example I tend to throw them down in disgust as unsubstantiated drivel (sorry husband!). Yet I find it difficult to get motivated by...

Perseus, this is a highly specialist subject. I don't think any of us here are qualified to help you in this area. Have you thought about contacting a specialist via the web - someone who really understands the psychology of stalkers?

OK, I know I'm dumb, Jesin. And I just happen to be 200%+ older than you too. Now, lets see if we can get a way for the internet to carry ice cream. Just imagine...

that\s cos I couldn't figure it out. I'm working on an Apple Mac and I'm useless. Does that mean that you still have some ice cream left for me?

Jesin, all I said was that I wanted some ice cream right now. then you disappeared and left me on my own :( What are you trying to tell me :(

Che Guevara - the most famous of all S American dissidents.

I said last night that my holiday was boring. I don't know why I said that. We had a bit of a hiccup yesterday (long story) but its really nice, I'm enjoying it and chilling out. Plus I can also log on! So I felt really guilty that I said this last night and couldn't get to sleep worrying...

Bloody hell, Dissident, most people in England wouldn't know the meaning of that word. Even I've forgotten it - does it come from Baudrillard or Derrida - simulation of reality?

what strikes me about these chat rooms is that I go all INTP again. I don't know what to say, say silly things to fill the gaps, say things I shouldn't and then regret it and become very self conscious. What does everyone else think? also I think Ogion has taken up residence there.:rolleyes::D

Chimera - how beautiful. What I love about those pictures is the pureness of the emotions that seem to come through. There doesn't appear to be any veil between the emotion and the manifestation of it. Pure trust. That's how I feel about your posts - there's an honesty about them, which is...

I'm from the very unromantic town of Basingstoke. this is about 40 miles south of London. It is a 'new town' which means that it was built up and developed in the 1960s as part of the government's social engineering plan. they brought large numbers of people from the Caribbean into London and...

Well, its 10pm and I'm not tired. So who's up for flashchat?

I am a mess. I found an image I liked but I don't know how it will come out. I'm working from a Mac and don't know how it operates. I like the description. This is the address though: www.annewilsonartist.com/projects/mess/mess.jpg project credits Mess is a...

I think it's Dissident's turn next.

This is just a quick thought Waterstiller. You seem to have identified a theme in his notebooks and I'm sure you can write about that, pulling out all the references and noting how he uses language with reference to that theme (perhaps contrasting it to the way he uses language in other parts...

I obviously need to extend my swear vocabulary - though to be truthful, I don't think I will ever be able to compete with AI in that area. Then you have to be witty, intelligent, deep, thoughtful, enlightening on demand - actually, I'm sure I'll come across as being totally banal. And that...

Yeah,yeah I believe ya. Actually I thought I'd better point out that I was just joking. I never know whether my sarcasm comes across as serious or jokey.

It was cool! I was particularly impressed by the quality of the conversation. The guys were practising their swear words when I came along then they moved on to comparing the benefits of Flashchat and some other technology. Most illuminating :D

I just noticed that nine people were using Flashchat. Being totally dumb I don't know what this is or how one accesses it. Any help?

When will they realise that it just doesn't work anymore? Or does it? Are there still people out there who believe this stuff?:phear::phear: So true. But would you have been any happier had you stayed in your job - which I must say sounds ideally suited to an INTP :D We had a period in the...

I think its great you met your girlfriend on the internet. If its anything like the relationships here, you've probably got more in common than anyone you've met in RL.

Well, the first stage on the journey is dissatisfaction with the present. You've seen through the lie but the choices ahead seem scary. I mean REALLY scary. You do get a lot of psychological rewards being a human sacrifice (great phrase, btw). One thing I have found is that we often do not...

I started off by thinking this may be a generational thing - i.e. my generation find it strange to talk about online friendships but the younger generation are quite used to it. From what you are saying however, there are negative connotations to online relationships regardless of age. The...

Am I going mad? I have to mix with people all over the world in my job. I have just finished a 3 day session that included Americans, Canadians, Argentinians, Colombians and Trinidadians. Now, when I talk to the American guy from Louisiana I say, 'yeah, I know this guy from Texas. He tells...

Wow Auburn, total respect. that must have taken ages - not just in terms of technical time but also in terms of thinking about the images and trying to do justice to the different personalities. Also just taking the risk of upsetting people :D Soooo, EB does have an ego - how interesting - a...

Oooh, I love this thread. It sounds deliciously revolutionary. *warning - rant ahead* There are a lot of lies around. Many people want to entice you into their addictions. The worst lie of all is wanting to make a difference - the ultimate seduction to cheat death. All you have to do...

I'm with AI on this one. I regard most people I come across as people I meet on the journey. I have an appalling indifference to keeping in touch with people - even close friends. Actually, I don't. I don't keep in touch with anyone from school, anyone from university or from work. I think its...

No Nia? :(

Lor, I think you have two men duelling over you :cool: How romantic ;):) How does it feel?;)

Re: Absence of the forum I'm off on a two week working holiday. Three days of work (working with my husband which will be strange), 4 days as a couple followed by 7 days with the kids. I'm not sure whether I'll be able to post or not. Wish me luck - I'm not good with holidays. I get bored...

You are a darling :D

Go for it, Kidege. NoI is feeling a little....disturbed this evening. A bit too cheeky for his own good - needs a good slapping. *Cue for Melkor* Let the men get on with it while we watch :eek::D

I love being given advice by young people! Did you see how Jesin told me off on the Black Frida thread - and he's 15 :D. I was terrified :phear: It's kinda sweet because you don't get this in RL. Young people probably think that I'm talking a load of rubbish but don't dare say anything (unless...

I was kidding - I deserve everything you guys throw at me :D Go on, I can take it :phear:

Right I'm going to delete it all now.:( I did this instead of posting some profound piece of art or poetry or prose. A little bit of self revelation - and look what you guys do. Destroy me :mad: Wtf does 'potty mouth' mean.

If anyone deserves banning it must be me.:(:o:(

OKI deserved that - that's what comes of revealing stuff. You get judged :D. But I suppose I must have come across prim and proper online too. How weird. Cos whilst I am middle class (not born that way though) I don't fit into the prim and proper world of the middle classes because I always...

But I'm not sure this will have the effect that is desired or wanted. In fact, it might have the opposite effect. This thread was a badly thought through idea, sorry Lor.

Not courageous but you get to a certain age and you care much less about what people think of you. Having said this, I expect we all seem very stuck up, middle class English people to you - a bit like the Bunuel film, 'The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie'. Actually, these people are all my...

congratulations for reaching a major milestone

Wow, that was quick NoI - I've got POWER!:phear:

She's from Mississippi. This is her blog. And the lady on the sofa next to me is French. Bill Murray is my husband! Wow, I never thought I'd say that :D Oh and did I say, that I'm addicted to this forum? I'm cooking tea at the moment - there's a computer in virtually every room in the house...

Here I am having a dinner party and my friend is videoing us on her camera. She works for Nokia and can do all sorts of clever things like putting her video onto Youtube - yes, I know, I am pathetic. So I thought I might share this with you and you can see us in action - just a quick warning...

This was meant to be about Lor's writing. What with aunts and mothers - blah. Sorry Lor. It's not your fault. I blame Freud.

I would like to set up a thread to appreciate Lor, for which she will probably hate me for evermore. (Sorry Lor) Lor tremendously underrates her abilities. She is a constant source of support and appreciation for everyone on this forum. She is highly complementary of the work of others whilst...
