Hi all,

This is a kind of second edition thread. I started a thread a while ago as a way of introduction and it took off like a car thief in a Ferrari (which is way over-rated, an Aston Martin is a far more stylish way to steal) but I feel that the time has come to let that thread slowly drop off the end of the boards and into oblivion. That left me with nothing to do, so I thought I'd start a new thread and see how it developed. Perhaps I should start much in the same way as the last one, with an introduction.

I'm an enthusiastic kind of person, I don't just enjoy life but I lust after it. I race along in it's tumultuous frenzy enjoying all the whirls and turns it offers with a kind of bemused grin. I am a man of mercurial tendencies, given to laugh sometimes and heart wrenching sadness at others. I like to talk, to type, to touch others in some way, and my greatest pleasure is in lightening someone's day just a bit. I'm a swinger although I've never had sex with another woman, and I think life is absurd.

No really, I mean it. Completely utterly and totally mad. We all spend so much time trying to figure out why we're here, and we all get to the end and think "Nope, that made no sense whatsoever". I admire those who have fun and can be hedonistic without hurting others, I once drank WD40 for a bet and my lifetime ambition is to be charged with maliciously impersonating a nun in Rome.

Someone really clever once said that our character is our destiny. If that's true, my destiny is more pointless than a snooker ball. I'm well rounded maybe, but completely pointless. What would your destiny be?

Oh, and someone said I'm a bit wordy sometimes, but I don't see that.

This is something that I don't find in myself. Tell me, what's your secret?
 
:)..hello to you..I gotta tell you..thats the most interesting personal I've read...well done..:)..Marie

Thanks very much, tis very nice of you to say so. Of course that could mean that most of the other personals are complete rubbish, which seems unlikely, or that this is only the second one you've read - and the first one was typed by a man called MEAT who lists his hobbies as BREEVIN and BEER. Much more likely.

Anyway, thanks for tingling my eyeballs with your avatar, and for the compliment too. Sorry about the big words on the thread title, I just thought it would put MEAT off.

Have fun :rolleyes:

No secret, I'm still looking. I find that you're an interesting poster who has lots to say on some subjects and thinks long and hard about much that is interesting. Who needs enthusiasm when they have your brains?

Obviously I don't mean someone else has your brains...this isn't some kind of Mary Shelley horror scenario where you're left staring blankly at a screen whilst some guy called MEAT borrows your cells and synapses and uses them to write to women with big breasts.

I have no idea why I'm an enthusiast. Perhaps it's my typical Englishness? I also like a nice cup of tea and feel the urge to buy potting sheds every autumn.

Have fun
 
i promise not too rhyme ever again

Ah a promise once made is like a whisper to the soul. You cannot break it without it reverberating in my deepest being, and then I shall be stricken with grief, rent asunder by the betrayal and turned in on myself with despair. Still, it's up to you, no pressure.

I cannot promise not to rhyme ever again, but when it comes to poetry I'm definitely unarmed. Good to see you again

Have fun
 
Hello there EA...see we won't let you get away easily...lol

Hugs & Lix!

Hi seamstryss, good to see your pixels so fairly represented again. I just want to point out that I've never handled you, either at your best or your worst. Who's been spreading rumours?

Have fun
 
Sadly I've just had to throw my friend out of the car in realisation of his insanity. It's because I just discovered there are no such things as UFOs.
On the front page of a local tabloid it mentioned UFO's over Birmingham. I said that if you can point at something and say "look there's a UFO" then you have identified it. If you've identified it, then it cannot be an unidentified object, therefore there is no such thing as a UFO. My friend then said that if he saw a strange spinning thing in the air he would say "Look there's a UFO". As there are no such things as UFO's he is obviously madder than a teapot so I threw him out of the car.
I feel bad that I didn't stop first.
 
Hi Inrhapsody, good to see you here in glorious ecstasy again, twisting and turning and pirouetting in your textual fabulousness. Not that I want to go over the top at all....
:)

What a wonderful greeting...so EA, what is the phantasmic topic for this thread, seems we have all followed you here.

Of course my pixels would be represented....you are my biggest fan....You know I live by the philosophy "If I am going to be accused of it, I might as well do it, so as not to make all the tongue-waggers out to be liars." (wink,wink)

Hugs & Lix!
 
aims and aimlessness

What a wonderful greeting...so EA, what is the phantasmic topic for this thread, seems we have all followed you here.

If there;s to be a topic then I think it should be one of two things;

1. To do the first one you'll need £8.40, $8.40 or a similar amount in small change in your local currency. For those of you in Zimbabwe, don't bother playing along as you won't be able to afford it by day two. If you want to take part in some online philosophy then we can do this one. No cheating and saying you've got the cash when you haven't really though. I'll expect to see pictorial evidence (or a sworn affadavit from a judge) to prove you can join in.
Incidentally, those things they hang the lifeboats from on a ship are called Davits aren't they? I'll therefore accept anyone who turns in proof of ownership of part of a large ship. Otherwise £8.40 in mixed denominations please.

The other choice apart from that is exactly the same except it's nothing like it. The poet Rabbie Burns (don't worry, he was a small timer, I doubt he'll ever be widely known outside GlenTossenach) wrote "would some power the giftie gie us to see ourselves as others see us". (Don't quote me on it, I'm doing this from memory, he may actually have said "Would you like French Fries with that" for all I know). Anyway, stop distracting me. As this is a personals thread where people are supposed to introduce themselves, how about getting the next person on here to write an introduction for the previous person? For instance I could write an introduction to everyone for Seamstryss, which would enable everyone to form some opinion of her based on my own, and would let her see how she is perceived by others of a less intelligent or creative nature. What do you think?

I'm not too succinct about these things am I? I could have said all that in a couple of sentences but then we wouldn't have had this time together, would we? I do so value our quiet chats. Care for another cup....?
 
Ha! So you thought you could escape all of us by hiding in another new thread! Think again, EA! We will follow your verbosity wherever you may go. And unlike my dear, handsome Welshman, I will not promise not to rhyme too much. To not do so might cause my brain cells to stagnate, and who would want stagnating brain cells of a sexy feline in a feather boa? lol

Good luck in this new thread. I hope you get the attention of more lovely ladies. But come to think of it, you have a lot on your platter now. Do you think you can handle more? ;)

Have a nice weekend! :rose:
 
Hi EA! Hi Everyone!

I could certainly use a little lightening.
 
So, if I am introducing the person above me...that would be Noor.
Please let me introduce you to this stunningly beautiful and sexy women...Noor. She loves chocolate and and silly men, which is probably why she has followed EA to this thread.
She also wishes for world peace and if the Avatar is actually her picture, while I don't want her (LOVE men), I want to BE her. Beside that I love the name Noor. :rose:

You're a clever smoothie, sir, and I thank you for your compliment.

That's absolutely it. It wasn't ME writing all the women with big breasts. Damn the MEAT puppet! However, if all those buxom lovelies that HE wrote to would actually like to respond, well then I'd be happy to meet them! ; )


As for Zimbabwe, I hear they're knocking off about 10 zeros (or whatever the ridiculous number was) from their currency and re-issuing normal size bills. Can't quote you a source, but I believe I heard it on NPR (npr.org)

Mmm, but I do like tea. Hope you have a swell weekend.

Thank you! You made my evening :rose:
 
Just stopping by to say hello to everybody here and apologize for my extended absence. Been busy, busy, busy lately. Hope everyone is well....

Hugs & Lix!
 
I could seriously just read your words all day long, EA...tell me, or us, or no one...what is it you'd like to pontificate about? You obviously start these wonderful threads to find something? I take it you haven't found it yet. If nothing else, I offer the gift (yes, I said gift!) of my friendship. I am not as wordy as you, but I'm a quick wit, and a sarcastic mind. So if you really are still looking for a friend, I would love to be one!
 
Hey EA! Where have you been lately? All of us lovely girls bumping your thread, and you're not around. Hope everything is fine. Have a nice weekend! :)
 
Hi everyone,

Well, I am pizza fed, brain dead, got a friend messed in the head, filled with dread that I've been busy elsewhere instead and already it's time for bed.

Sorry I'm not around at the mo, Glad to see you're all still having fun, as soon as I get back to being online I promise I'll report straight in.

now I'm off to put on my happy pants.

Have fun x

That might be the best post I've ever read! You sound like a man after my own heart. And yes, you may be "inebriated with the exhuberance of your own verbosity," as Benjamin Disraeli once said, but all the better for it. :)
