My girl's a part-time lurker. She's almost been provoked by certain people to start posting, but hasn't taken the plunge since she enjoys making fun of my addiciton. She's also a Jazz fan, but doesn't like smack talk. Incidentally, she likes Mango and Achebe, best. Mango, because she's fact-obsessed like him... and Achebe, because he's "Johnny Carson with attitude." She also thinks that Jeff is too nice, and that Manny Ramirez has ADHD.
My wife is afraid of the board. Some posters have threatened to nuke me or some such. Unfortunately this is true.
Gee, it's nice to be given a disorder by someone who doesn't really know you & it's all based on a message board. That would be like me saying "I think your fiance, haven, is an elitist, stuck-up snob", but I wouldn't say that about people I don't really know. - because all I have to base her on is one comment just like all she has to base me on is comments from this board. Seriously, I know that I do some crazy things here, but believe me when I say that "Manny Ramirez" and the guy behind the keyboard are very different. Sure, there are similar traits in both of us, but for God's sakes, anyone who would meet me in person and expect the same exact behavior that I exhibit here is in for a rude and disappointing awakening. I don't think so, really. I mean look at Jeff and crispee. They both have over 8,000 posts and high posts per day averages. However, they are both married; although, crispee doesn't post as much as he used to before he was married. However, I think that doesn't have much to do with the fact that he's married, but I could be off-base on that. I could sit here and lie & no one would know the difference but alas, I have no significant other. Thus, it's not an issue & this was a thread that I wasn't going to comment on because it wasn't applicable to me. But my name popped up here twice, so that is why this post is here. I used to think from time to time that life would suck to be single for the rest of one's life, but I'm enjoying it pretty well right now. Maybe one day I'll get more into this, but not now...will have to wait for another thread.
