I was DEFINATELY on for a while. They kicked me off for trying to drive while tripping on some Mr. Natural. :D

Els reminds me of my friend Jaime. Same lifestyle, and a warm, wonderful guy. The only guy I know who could throw a naked hot tub party and nobody would think it was weird. Well, at least not anybody who was invited. :D

He reminds me of a friend of J's dad. An American anthropologist he spent time with in the Sudan. He's so lovely. I could sit and listen to him talk for hours. Which doesnt actually amount to a huge conversation, because he speaks slowly and thinks about what he says. A lot of Elspode's posts remind me of his tone. Thoughtful and considered, and non-judgemental.

I'm not cool. Nor am I hot. I'm tepid, I suppose. But I'm smart & cool & humorous enough to recognize more & better in others, and that's enough to keep me here. If that makes me fringe, well, that doesn't make me cringe. I'm used to it. :)

my bangs have grown out, so probably not

Fringe means on the edge, the outside. How can anyone with nearly 10,000 posts make a claim to be "fringe"? Not getting the "in'jokes" doesn't make you "fringe", it just means the chances are that your post count is not augmented by posts that just say: :lol:

Srsly, this thead is just a place for those who don't get stuff to whine and those who do get it but need ego stroking to get their egos stroked.

That is all.

well, that and this:

Nope, that's not what it's about.

If you want to take a negative perspective on it I suppose you could start doing some whining, but I don't see anyone here whining.

I was whining..... :D

lol...oh right. I got whining and bitching mixed up. Must be 'cause I have no sense of humour.

:lol: :blah:

Toni Collette is great,

Did you see Murials Wedding? She was great in that.

Monster, what movie was that? looks fun.

Murials Wedding.

umm yeah, that's why I mentioned her.

I love Australian films
