<<... faux pas ...>

at least you spelt one of those foreign words right, unlike someone that might pip up with "eau contrare".

good thing you didnt use those grinny thingies either. or else someone would have hit u with <"X" censored> - not that we chat about X rated things here...I'm told its a "family oriented thread".

DownSouth,

After reading your... ummm... faux pas on the G & K thread thought this might be a better venue to use to respond. Now let me get this straight. You can't tell a gorillahuntress from a ggorillagirl


I think DS's point was, what difference does it make? Gorillagirl, gorillahuntress...New York, Virginia. You expect us to remember this, let alone pay attention or care?

gorillahuntress,

<< Unless, of course, you consider northern VA southern >>

Please correct me if I am wrong but I think that "northern VA" is several furlongs south of the Mason-Dixon line.

<< I believe ggorillagirl posts from the vicinity of NYC >>

She has stated that. She is a contributor here. She is a contributor on the G&K thread. She is a respected Curmudgeon.

<< I'll say nice things on the other thread. I've been around long enough to know not to say anything nice here >>

Which other thread?

How long have you "been around" here?

What have you personally contributed here or on any other thread to earn respect from your peers?

<< not to say anything nice here >>

What personality disorder, personal prejudice, or gene defect do you have that would prevent you from saying "anything nice here"?

I happen to be acting very curmudgeonly this evening.

If I have interpreted your post here in the wrong fashion I probably should apologize.

But ...

Your post seems to have a strong gender and age bias and I have the impression you are abnormally sexist, with strong prejudices.

If I am wrong, feel free to asuage my impression.

If I an correct, see a shrink.

I presume you have read the thread header and understand it?

Well, gh, that's what I get for trying to be nice over there on the other thread. Senior moment? Yeah, I guess so. After a while the opposite sex becomes even more mysterious than when I was 13 years old.

I think I could like you though. You seem pretty nice. Just don't tell Boa Babe how nice I was to you.

Northern VA? I lived in Rockville, MD, from 1991-1997. That ain't South, but I see you realize that. That's in your favor, too.

So now that you've come outta your hidee place, will we be hearing more from you?
