This almost makes sense, and that's probably not due to any error on
your part, but more to do with my own creeping dementia. I'd probably
have a great snappy comeback if I drank a few beers. Hey, I know! I can
be a crypto-alcoholic. But hiding my 12-pack seems to pointless to me
when I put my recycle-bin full of dozens of empties out at the curb
every trash-day. I guess I can't hide that.
Or, looked at another way, "everybody's got something to hide, except
for me and my monkey". Still I'm generally reasonably decent, outwardly.
I suppose sitting quietly in a corner is outwardly decent, if boring.
That's my problem! I'm boring! Maybe if I was evil and boring, it
wouldn't be so bad. Naah. Real Evil People have dash, pinache, and
flair. Or, at least some people misinterpret it that way. I suppose
that's a side-point you might make?

Um.... well... my history has been mostly that me being pretty much the
opposite of sp00ky and myst3ri0u5 is that I seem to attract myst3ri0u5
and sp00ky females who have their own Darke Secrets. I suppose it's
because I make a perfect cover for them, and furthermore am a perfect
blank sheet on which to scribble their Fell Designs. Then they can hang
me up like a piece of bad art and make clean their escape whilst everone
gawks at me.
Maybe I'm better off being uninteresting, and hiding. ;)

Oh, I'd have to agree.

And in general, if you're reasonably cute and graduate from a four-year
college, you've probably had a ****load of experience on how to sniff
out that kind of bull****. But what about the ones who _still_ are
attracted to the smell of depravity?

Erm, no, I meant "retrogressive" more or less, not simply reversed. Then
again, who will ever know for certain what she meant?

Absolutely! I agree! Mee Toooo! 8-D
