i don't think that that they have a right to limit your speech.  if you go, and you wish to talk about graelwyn's lover then that is your prerogative.  if she chooses not to answer, then that is hers.
What if her reply is violent?

nope.  dunno what gave you that idea.
The way that some members claim to almost intimately know you. Anyway, who on here would you like to meet? (asides Odeon  :P)

i talk a lot to various other members, via PM, email, IM and phone, variously.  some people here, i've known for years, and probably spoken with more online than most people i know in the flesh, as it were.

I am of the school that you dont really know someone until you meet them in real life, i can never really figure people out online as well as in real life. In real life its a struggle, online its almost impossible.

Anyone know about this?  Graelwyn's going.  I have been told today not to mention her young lover if anyone goes.
Like the germans in the Fawlty Towers Episode - whatever you do, don't Mention the war!
Have fun.

Misunderstood.

you're entitled to your opinion, based on your own experience, naturally.  i can work people out very quickly, both online and irl, but then i've been trained to do so, and seem to have a natural bent for it to start with.  empathy of a house brick, but very intuitive, and have studied people and their behaviour for decades.

How come you got trained to do so, did you study psychology or something in that area? People do fit models, but I dont like to treat people in such a fashion when dealing with them. I like to hope for some quirks.

No, and I'm not going to go either.


You should go if it is not too far away and you aren't doing anything else.

I've been to an aspie pub meeting a couple of times in the city centre. Didn't like it.

Once I get a job, I might consider meeting Mutate and Robert outside of Bristol with the money I've earned.

I'd climb mountains to introduce my middle leg to your hairy ginger skinny arse but have little interest in the rest of you. Good sig BTW.

Agreed for the most part.  Although, I'd add that it doesn't necessarily require training.

what can you say about me Lucifer? :P

i am intuitive also and work out fast which people i like.

i don't believe people fit models. they can fit models but they don't perfectly, because they are unique.

I think that Peter Doherty character fits into at least one model. :P
