Trollop? I haven't heard that used conversationally since about 1981, and then it was an old man saying it.

But getting back to short messages, one time I was trying to tune up this bird on the internet, but I really didn't have anything to say or any great interest... So I just asked if she likes bread (borrowed from a poster here)... She;s completely flipped out, called me all sorts of names, reckons just because she's carrying a bit of weight doesn't mean she's hooking into the bread 24/7, blah blah blah.

So I learnt that day, short messages can backfire.

Nah, it is widely considered to be the greatest post of all time. Time magazine is going to run a front page special about it.

Sometimes, I suck air noisily through my teeth, run my thick stumpy fingers through my greasy mullet, then shake my head and think- It's not easy these days.

You are giving us your own evaluation; they might perceive your letters in quite different light :)

Thanks to a certain Rohaan. Who’s not exactly a spring chicken nowadays. If he’s ever been.

Why would you try and flirt with someone, you are not interested in? She might answer favourably and you might find yourself married in no time. “Russian roulette” is a children’s game compared to your hazardous behaviour. I’m worried for you, man.

Yes it's my own evaluation but I do believe it's a very fair and honest evaluation..We're just friends nothing more so he would be use to it by now..Roll his eye's.. Scratch his head laugh

In saying the above I'm always in trouble for only sending one or two lines..It's not there fault because they do make a big effort wanting to get to know me..people behind a screen is too artificial for me..I like to go out in the real world and bump into men by accident where everything is easy peasy.

rohaan: Interesting. Years ago I worked for a company that owned an adjacent theater/concert hall. Elton John was scheduled to play, and I, with a couple of other waiters, was on a break. Sitting with us was a grip for the E.J. show. He told us a funny story about Elton John and his co-writer Bernie Taupin. Sitting in a London bar, they were trying to come up with a cool catching title. Just as a very upset and angry woman entered the bar, they both said, loudly, “Got it! The b*tch IS BACK!!”
The woman started a row, and Taupin and John left quickly. The song, as you might recall, became a major hit.
laugh rolling on the floor laughing
Inspiration comes in all shapes and forms grin

I don't fail to answer interesting letters. It's the long and boring ones, that I don't know what to do with. Someone tog their time in an attempt to reach me. I appreciate the effort. But their way to express themselves sends me in coma. Doesn't make them bad person on one hand, on the other - I don't want to spend my time on bores :(

Nonetheless, answered with a short generic phrase and wished them good luck with someone else.

Some connections just are not ment to happen :)

The thing is, you never know who is behind the boring message. You get a 4 page rant about how to make bread, and think stuff it this is a boring message, and ignore it.

It's called yeast sleep sleep sleep
