I confess I abhor having emotions. I am going to work on repressing them totally so all that will be left is a mind, what people seem to want of me.

She could've fooled me... flashing off all that sage wisdom.

I don't know where it could come form... if not old age...

8O What? What could it be?


I confess that I was -the- one to come to in high school, if you wanted someone to forge a parent or teacher's signature. :oops:

Oh, good grief. I confess, I'm not even going to say anything... Except that this place needs a wider variety of emoticons.

Good fortune,

...I confess I rather thought of it as playing by the rules, if you can imagine. If a signature was what they wanted... by golly, they'd have it!

So I wasn't a bad girl so much as I saw life from a different angle than most do. :wink:

Why do you want to be trying to tell me you're not a bad girl? :wink: Here's an actual sticker that's on the back of my Jeep Renegade:

As for the source of my "shock"... Give me 1 example sig, and a bit of time to practice, and I'll forge anything you like, right-handed or left. I like to think of it as method acting with a pen. I was known for the same thing you were; which brings our similarities far beyond the point of "freaking me out"...

And like you, I interpret the "rules" to suit my aims also, and see life from a much, much different angle than most; not only that, but I have fun doing so; always have; ask anyone who's known me for any amount of time (I can provide several references). But for you to say that? That is a bit surprising. But so be it.

Good fortune,

I confess that I just took an hour to do a few dishes, due to being distracted by other things.

Hmm, I used to think I was like the both of you...over time I'm finding interesting differences. I still think personality wise we fit together like cup-and-ball game...

I never "interpret" the rules to my aim. I try to understand the rules and follow them. If they don't make a lick of sense, and are just barriers set up to annoy me... I disregard them in creatively subversive ways.

I have no time to follow ignorant authority.

I confess, I'm turning into a hippy by the day...

and the scary part is... I enjoy it.

I confess that never have I felt more close to retreating from the internet altogether and turning my back on other human beings to focus on myself and my interests.

I didn't mean to speak for gwenevyn; chances are I'm a lot more chaotic neutral than she is; I'd qualify myself as "chaotic neutral with good tendencies"; gwenevyn is, I'm guessing, closer to chaotic good. Or maybe something else; I'll let her address that aspect of things; I simply suppose...

Remember when you said that the best of teams is composed of a set of different charactes each of which fulfills a different role? I think the something similar is true with small groups of people; it can be antagonistic towards an ultimate cohesiveness, but diversity of thought and belief in a small group is something that I've come to respect and value. Which is why I mainatain that you and I could be friends; you could be the laid back hippy guy (or however you like to qualify it); I could be the crazy "let's push the evelope and challenge everything" guy. In effect, such differences amongst our team of friends (we'd need a few more to make it work) would balance each other out, and, ideally, synergize.

We've got an A-Team going on here! Graelwyn, you could be the brilliant, cynical pessimist who challenges all of my crazy ideas, and tells Pugly he needs to be more assertive. Oh, uh, something like that. :wink:

Good fortune,

- Icarus is Murdock

I confess. This video took me three days and several contusions (from banging my head on my desk) to finish.

Enjoy.

WOW. It is unfortunate that I've already used my my daily quota of "cool shocked" emoticons on gwenevyn (the WP won't let me post any more just now), otherwise I'd have sent them all to you. Not only was that a profound bit of beautious anime, but the editing and scynchronization with the "cheezy 80's song" score was of masterwork quality! You RULE!

Good fortune,

- Icarus will dream sweetly of anime babes tonight...

I admit I have not started my open university work yet despite my mother paying for the course.
