QUIT FECKING SCARING HER!
Barry, KNOCK IT OFF.
Matt, she is bashful, quit.
Ben, Let us just drop it.
I like the picture I reduced for her. Otherwise I would not have.
I have given some of you space fopr an avatar...
Geez, I meant this to be a standout, not a scare down. Gads.
We are creeping her out. I like her to be here spicing up the conversation. He take on meat and why. The fact she is in a science other than our *NORMAL* Computers one.
Take a break from this. I am sorry Laura. I didn't mean for this to get over blown like this.
I guess we don't get really interesting people here often enough.
And, I'll be removing that picture. I am truly sorry.

It's okay. I can tough this out.
But let me assure you that the only banging going on will be the backside of my hand banging you all upside the head! Who would've thought one little picture would turn you all into a bunch of jackasses?

Dear bionerd:
Yes there's no doubt you can tough this out. But you shouldn't have to. I've been around here for a while, and understand that this can be a rather...uhh, rowdy, unruly, and randy (not to mention typographically impared...) group, but we don't usually carry on like that. I apologize.
Dudes! Get a grip, awready!

Heed perfidious Albion
The referenced exchange was way beneath the minimum standards we're accustomed to here. I haven't seen these levels of social pathology in IWT since...oh, last September 23. Is there a rolling case of normonic possession going through the group?
Down, boys.

Less of the accusations of perfidy, you :-)
I'd really like to think that the fuckwittery and adolescent antics in that thread were an isolated example of a minority of users going "OMFG A CHIXXOR! I MUST IMPRESS HER WITH MY WIT AND MANLY MANLINESS!", as a consequence of a momentary lapse of reason.

You probably know the old joke
Q: Why does the sun never set on the British Empire?
A: Because God would never trust an Englishman in the dark.
Of course, Great Britain's western hemispheric by-blow has attained stratospheric realms of perfidy undreamt of by the mother country's most ardent imperial schemers.

Re: It's okay. I can tough this out.
I hope you will continue to stay (and contribute). This place is filled with very intelligent, thoughtful people who often work under trying circumstances (Windows). If you can slip past the crap, you will find lively discussions, interesting insights on everything, and innovative solutions to problems, both personal and professional. Please stay.

GROSS-out
Even before this thread.. {ugh} -6 for Cringing-grade. I'm "creeped out".
An intelligent and witty person turns up, happens to be female - immediately gets drenched in prepubescent gross-out crap. Every third post. Any personal revelation greeted with a (not even remotely clever) mangy leer.
Laura "shy"? .. Nonsense! She be adult. That's the divide.
Nothing like finding the most juvenile, nasty parody of a 'geek', say from some Fright-wing wacko venom sheet - and exceeding it.
Who the FUCK would wanna party with a bunch apt to flash their pron collection, even before the tank car of beer?
Sorry (too) Laura; there isn't even a lame excuse. Failed group-mind ink blot.
See y'all in a few. I guess.
Ashton
