The Big Hello Thread

[luka]

No, you've misunderstood me

 

[sus]

Ok some of that message was unnecessary I've retracted it

 

[Leo]

she probably does that every week, gets a new sucker to pay for her car wash every time.

 

[sus]

No, you've misunderstood me

My apologies, sometimes I can't tell if you're on a friendly day or an antagonistic day.

 

[luka]

I mean in England for instance there are rural areas where people are generally friendly and rural areas where they are horrible

 

[sus]

You mean that not all ruralites are like that, so Midwesterners are really exceptional. You think we're the greatest state

 

[luka]

Devon and Cornwall are notoriously insular and suspicious of strangers whereas Dorset is much more open and kindly

 

[sus]

Didn't we have a thread on that new Charlie Kaufman film I'm thinking of ending things

There are probably a lot of filmic/media depictions of that rural hostility. And of ones where a veneer of friendliness is quickly unveiled for something darker. Dogville maybe.

 

[IdleRich]

League of Gentlemen perhaps....

 

[linebaugh]

isnt @shiels only 30?

 

[IdleRich]

Think we scared off the new person anyway.

 

[linebaugh]

he'll be back, weve been DM'ing

 

[IdleRich]

Phew... I feel that welcome, I mean, it wasn't UNfriendly... but at the same time it wasn't that friendly either.

 

[linebaugh]

it was too friendly, over eager, thirsty. thats why weve been dm'ing. 'sorry about my guys man they get a little excited'

 

[sus]

Linebaugh is right we blew it here and I'm in large part to fault

 

[luka]

well its good youre 'taking ownership' thats a positive sign

 

[luka]

isnt @shiels only 30?

closer to 40. version is only 30 though

 

[luka]

Linebaugh is right we blew it here and I'm in large part to fault

mind you it was him that said all midwesterners were intellectually subnormal and morally degenerate

 

[mvuent]

our born and raised rural midwesterners mvuent and matchstickwitch are total self admitted losers. they claim to be 'not smart' and 'uncool.' who's to disagree? not me

still reeling from this. never thought john "six guns" linebaugh would open fire on me and matchstickwitch like this. but on second thought, you never did look entirely trustworthy.

 

[sus]

well its good youre 'taking ownership' thats a positive sign

My next step is resigning the forum honorably, i.e. seppuku style
