Msgboard Chatroom Marathon

Sunday, January 27, 2002 by Elfkura | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Honestly, I would go to IRC for this kind of stuff, but if any of you have been there recently, everyone seems to be...inactive. Sooooooooo, out of boredom, I'm turning a thread among this msgboard into a chat room, anyone care to join? =P.

It's Sunday night, and I'm bored out of my mind. There's much to do, but I'm too lazy to get around to do it. My boyfriend is busying trying to get Visual Studios to work so I can't talk to him on the phone....and we can't seem to talk over the phone anyways...it'll just be silence mostly.

New Semester started........so anyone alive out there to join Elffie in this chat marathon? =P

Let's try not to let this post hang for over 2 hours, hm? =P

Yeah, Men just won't admit to other men that they like to cuddle. My husband (oh god he would kill me if he knew I said this) still has a little stuffed tiger from when he was a kid. It is really in bad shape now, so it has a special box that it stays in. One of the guys here at work has a really cute bunny that he had since he was a kid......

Everyone's got an object in which they hold dear. I do too, from the age of six or seven. My blanket still lies in my closet. I've had it for about 12 - 13 years now.

They say the older an object, the more meaning it has towards you

I've had meaningful conversations that didn't involve breasts, football, or cars. And while I doubt I'd bring it up in conversation, I have no problem admitting to liking cuddling. And somehow, I doubt I'm the only male like this. At least I hope not. Because if I was, I wouldn't be able to keep women away from me unless I was hideously ugly. And keeping women away doesn't seem to be a big problem.

I'm beginning to feel a bit outnumbered on this thread. Am I the only guy willing to defend guys?

No need to feel outnumbered. I'm still not very sure where men got the idea that girls like tough, bit muscled men.....

Personally, I rather enjoy the cuddling soft side of guys mostly. I guess it's just my personality.

I must admit, I do like the "car racing" side of my hubby. The "manly" side, if you want to call it that. He could be a little more sensitive, but in general, I can't complain. Of course, I am not exactly a real "girly" girl. I was a tom boy growing up, worked on cars with my Dad and stuff like that, so I guess it is natural for me to be attracted to somebody who think about how he could get more horsepower out of my car versus buying flowers or something for my birthday.

Everyone is different, though. You just have to keep looking until you find somebody that you click with.

This is turning into the romance thread...

Where is that cake that Feline made for Elf? That sounds good (especially with a cup of coffee).

Well, once you keep looking for long enough, it starts getting frustrating and there becomes less to look for. And then there're the times you click with them but they don't click with you. Statistically, my odds are diminishing.

Good thing I continue to keep myself entertained even when I don't have someone to be entertained with.

Glen, you need to consider the irony of the current situation.

here you are, getting on quite well with several females all at once.

and there are only 2 minor issues.
a) they are probably living on a different planet
they are all happily settled with significant others.

if you dont see the humor in the situation it will drive you mad

feline wants to know if all interesting women are born 'married'

No, they just *seem* interesting because they *are* married.....

JavaBrain - Where is that cake that Feline made for Elf? That sounds good (especially with a cup of coffee).

go though the blue swirly portal to the chocolate plannet, and it is on the right. quite obvious

there is also a coffee lake on one side, so you can go tobonging down the side of the cake when you want a drink

now now JavaBrain!

married lady does *not* imply interesting lady as far as i am concerned.

i like things like an interesting and inventive mind, a sence of humor, and isnt to worried by my perpsective on life.

basically i like people i can have interesting conversations with.

this list doesnt contain the work female anywhere in it. it has just been my experience that this is far easier to find in a female than a male.

further, all such females that i seem to have encountered over the years seem to be quite happily settled with significant others.

Glen Eric Reed - I'm beginning to feel a bit outnumbered on this thread. Am I the only guy willing to defend guys?

you feel outnumbered?

Elf oscilates from one gender to another depending on the situation.

my species and mental gender are still under debate in certain quarters.

in which sence are you feeling outnumbered?

i could argue that i am outnumbered here since i am the ony three point 4 of me here.

try taking a "classic" male approach to the situation. "this is a target rich environment". where ever you turn there are women

as for defending males, i will admit that i am biased on the subject. working with them on a daily basis in a male only depertment hardly shows them off at their best.

Actually, feline, the humor and irony goes further than that. Outside of work, most of my spare time is spent in community theatre. If you're single and male in that crowd, it's just assumed you're gay until proven otherwise. That'd be great if I was, but I'm not. And I've got some specific situations that'd put the irony level into the stratosphere (assuming there's a stratosphere on the chocolate planet), but I'll spare everyone.

But as long as I've got some people I can share that irony with, I'm fine.

My feeling of being outnumbered is based in reality. I guess that was my mistake, since we're clearly not in reality here

I should be used to it by now. Most everything I've been involved with in the past 10 years or so is female-heavy, from college to work to leisure time.

The boards themselves are actually male dominated, it's just us mouthy females that make it *seem* like there are more women......

I was told today that you should only drink three cups of coffee a day....I guess I'm caught up for the rest of the year...

Ahh, my boyfriend left for home almost an hour ago... He failed to mention the fact that he won't be having lunch with me today before he left because his him wants him home by 1 to have lunch...

Sometimes, I understand that family is important, but one meal...... I don't know. I think it really would have meant more to me than it would to them. I'm kinda ticked off by that.....

I so want to rant, but I've exhausted every place I know to rant my heart out.... I wish... I really wish life would just co-operate with me one time. Let me have a wish I've asked for, doesn't matter if it's new years or if it's on my birthday.... Just one wish.

One simple wish.
