Very True! Very Sad!

I'm not moping, but I'll take a hug.
A quick grope.
I'm partial to a friendly fondle.
I'll settle for a pinch on the cheek.
Pincher's choice. I got four.
Got coffee, too!
coffeecoffeecoffeecoffeecoffeecoffee
Sometimes I like to stand very still and let my mind run around.
It's a happy little bastard!
That's the key to good mental health, you know.
Let your mind get naked and run around a while.
The dog likes the company.
Sometimes my mind just sits and reads while I run around naked.
Usually right after a shower.
Saves towels.
I learned that from the dog!

I am not pinching your butt, Recluse.

Ask kenny.

[kennyc]

I'm Painting, not pinching, check with Norton.

There are 50,000+ users on MR, and the posts are stored in a database, so they aren't gone, merely forgotten. and they're seen by more than you might think.

That's the double edged sword of the Internet. Very few things are ever really gone. There's a lovely cartoon of a candidate being interviewed, with the caption "Joe thought he'd aced the interview, till he was interrupted by the Ghost of Usenet postings past..."

Too true, as HR folks technically aren't supposed to look for your traces on the Internet, but all do.

I'm astonished by some of the stuff people post to the world on Facebook. If I did some of those things, I'd be at pains to keep it secret...

The dog normally dries off by shaking itself, preferably all over the closest human being. Do you return the favor?

Decaffeinated coffee is an oxymoron, right up there with non-alcoholic beer.

Paint my portrait, Kenny!
Please?
I need a new avatar.
One that screams "recluse"!
Just something simple.
Head and shoulders.
No facial features. No eyes. No nose.
Just a big smile.
Grey face. Like concrete.
Long black hair.
Dark purple fedora.
Please?
I trust your genius.

[kennyc]

Sorry Recluse. I don't really do requests. Not that it might not be fun, but....

Hey! Dude! You are approaching 200K Karma! Whoa!

Hi Jon!

[kennyc]

Out for my walk, Recluse keep H_T in line.

[happy_terd]

Eat a granola bar while you are out hippie.

[recluse]

That's okay, Kenny.
I'll figure something out.

Hi, Am!

[recluse]

Watch it, h_t!

Don't make me bitchslap you!
