Actually, I've met Jamie, so I know that Matt is really lucky here. I just have to take Jamie's word for it that she is, too.

Matt, your leprachaun Buddy Icon was scaring me. Thanks for changing it. By the way, I have nothing better to do than read peoples away messages and look at their buddy icons when at work.
(using my alternate nick until I figure out what I'ma do for my Landmark...)
Rivka: It's all about quality over quantity... you just don't post in the right threads.
But this all stems from my comment to Jamie that no one would notice if I stopped posting for three months...
...and quite frankly, they wouldn't, and I wouldn't expect them to. In fact, I'd be a bit shocked if they did.

You mean the Angel/Buffy threads? Or the sports threads? If those are the "right" threads, I'll pick the "left" ones.

Jeez, Matt. Congrats. Now for the important stuff... Can you get mack convinced that watching Angel/Buffy reruns together really is "quality time"?

Rivka: Actually, I've been posting remarkably little lately. I'm normally in the education threads and piracy threads, also in the gun control threads and, from time to time, in political threads, mainly dealing with the party system.
I tend to avoid the hatrack hot topics that get 400 posts in two days. I don't check often enough, and, after three years, the same arguments have grown tiresome. But yeah, lately, it's been Jamie and Angel. Well, mostly Jamie (that sports psych thread was hers, after all).
Elizabeth: I am FlyingCow using a pseudonym. Yes, I am a guy. (ask mack, Olivet, Slash, Keats, porce, sarahdipity, jexx or the Cards (er, minus Geoff) for proof on that score... ... and, um, I guess there are pictures now, too). I am also dating Jamie/mackillian, such as it is, us being five hours apart and all.
I am also very happy about all that... you know, being a guy, first of all, and dating Jamie besides. The latter is a more recent development, and I find myself musing on that happiness more often, it seems.

Matt (aka FlyingCow) was at Boot Camp a few years ago, with Slash, Jenny G and Caleb. I met him there, too. Plus he lived around here for a while and had Thanksgiving with me and my in-laws.
So I know both Matt and Jamie in RL, and they are both very lucky.
Matt, I have noticed in the past when you weren't around, if I was around (which... you know... life and all).
I feel a warm glow inside when I think of you two hitting it off so well. *warm glow* Attempts have been made to give to give me 'credit' for getting them talking, but I didn't really do anything deliberate.
But let's not put too much pressure on them, you guys. We don't wanna 'Bennifer" them to death.

Yeah, I vaguely recall that when I was new you posted a lot more. Sorry, I have a short memory, I guess.

Hey, Chopped Flying Liver! Congrats! Wooh for happy couples.
Now, go DM our game!
No, really. She's been running down this street for almost two Real-Time weeks. The halfling's getting pretty tired!

If you stopped posting for three months, that would be bad. But if you stopped playing SCRABBLE for three months . . .

I am glad that it is the latter that is a recent development.
When I first came onto Hatrack, I posted to Jamie as if she was a guy, and I always thought Flying Cow was a girl. I just don't know what it all means, subliminally, you know?
Edited because i wrote "Former" instead of "latter," further confusing the whole subliminal thing.

Well, Matt didn't e-mail me either to let me know about this, so he should feel like chopped liver.
And while the other theories about why some seem happier for mack than FC are nice and all, the actual reason should make him feel pretty good. No one was worried about him finding someone worthy of him. We figured he'd do okay. You are the flake we were concerned about.

You know, men suck. Of course Flying Cow would easily be able to find a good woman, you on the other hand, what with men sucking and all, have a much smaller chance of finding a decent one.
Yeah, that's what I meant.
