yes well *you* have a fiancee, you can avoid social situations for the rest of your life if you want. The rest of us poor singles have to keep going out to places where we don't know everyone in the vain hope that our soulmate is somewhere in the awful faceless crowd.

Why do that when you can just stay in all day like me?

online is in all but the luckiest of cases a dreadful place to try and pick up a date. It gives you a false idea of people. The internet for instance makes me look far nicer than I actually am, because I spend a lot of time wording things politely- I am in fact, completely obnoxious most of the time.

just as well because a lot of my london friends, and now seperatly my larping friends, are convinced there is a black hungry maw in me, in the place where most people keep their souls. that and apparently i'm the only person my DM has ever had to shift into the evil alignment for RP reasons, much less that i seem incapable of being good aligned (me, not my characters apparently) except by accident. i'm fluffy really

Seeeeeeeee?
And can we infer from the phrase "london friends" that you are another UK-er?

You're sometimes quite obnoxious online too, Em. :-p
As am I. I'm not sure I've ever really noticed *that* much difference between online and offline personalities...at least, not with people I know around here.

You also don't witness the sheer volume of times she's hit me with a shoe

You say that like "obnoxiousness" is a bad thing, Em. =^-^=

My opinion of the Internet is: good for building friendships, trainwreck-bad for dating. I have made some really good friends through the forums I visit, and also got very scared by a creepy stalker man on one of them (luckily he buggered off when our moderator told him to stop it).

Em- as your sister i acknowledge you CAN be obnoxious but i wouldnt describe that as a main trait. And the threatening of a beating with shoes has been benificial in many a situation

I can't recall a shoe-bashing incident that wasn't richly deserved on the part of the bashee. ;D

I keep going after the unattainable. Last one had no time to date. Ah well. My fault for trying to date intelligent women....

I seriously need more ideas for how to dress up like Stuart for the upcoming birthday shindig. So far I have a) a patch of spray-on blue hair colour on the back of my head, and b) ...er, not having a beard.
Annoyingly, other Stuart-related clichés I can currently think of are all tremendously out of date (see: can of mini-Coke, butterfly net, etc.).

Carry round a copy of the Daily Mail? Of course, that would involve buying a copy of the Daily Mail...
