No, YOU looked good. (maybe I should have just 'cropped' it before I deleted it?)

Well, bummer. Now we have no proof we actually met, or that we are actually both female and over 21.

It's like it never happened (spooky music a la Twilight Zone)

That's what I did; it's cheaper in the long run...or more expenseive, I forget which but I no longer care (try getting money out of an invisible friend sometime).

Or, are invisible friends just imaginary friends in minds that can't handle reality?

In another forum, someone recently said that they called their un-met internet-friends, "imaginary friends". I guess DGma and Ricky are no longer imaginary nor invisible to each other. I did a trust test with Adrian once, falling back into his arms. Some said it was because he didn't exist that I hit the floor, but I know he was over at the bar chatting to DixieGal, the unreliable bastiche! Reality is overrated - I'd give it about a 6 out of a possible 10.

I imagine so. As the great Aussie one-hit-wonder song goes, "I am the Real...Thing...Mm mow m-mow mow, mm mow m-mow mow, mm mow m-mow mow, mm mow m-mow mow, mm mow m-mow m-mow mow m-mow m-mow mow m-mow..."

Oscar occasionalyl stores, but it's a soft rumble, like a quietly deflating peat bog.

I'll be damned if I consult a dolphin with a squirrel on his head over my tenuous grasp on reality!

Psst. Just quietly, pshrynk goes with you on the pub-crawl, and pays for drinks.

Cheers,
Marc

What squirrel?

krisk · 03-08-2009, 04:56 PM

Yeahhhhhhh.......

I never managed to have any invisible friends as a child. Woe is me... even the invisible people didn't want to be my friends.

JSWolf · 03-12-2009, 10:30 AM

Glad you both hit it off so well.

badgoodDeb · 03-12-2009, 06:07 PM

There's a very obvious way to tell an invisible friend from an imaginary friend. If the friend is merely invisible, you should be able to feel him or her. Turn off the lights, and you'll never know they are invisible.

If they are imaginary, on the other hand, when you multiply them together, you get -1.
