Dana posted this picture on one of the other threads. I don't know why more people aren't talking about it. It was a very big deal this weekend.
Uh, nobody will see me in anything like that anytime soon, if for no other reason than my set of measurements fall outside of the "profitable to mass-produce" category.
And don't get me started on "one size fits all."
I already asked Bob about studies regarding neck injuries in short people from those "safety devices" in cars called "shoulder harnesses."
BTW, you should know that Mack's definition of "short" says that you're a tall person.

You know, CT, I found that the tactic you're talking about is a big one used by trolls. You may recall a recent troll who had a knack for implying an insult, and then trying to cover it up by saying that the only harm done was what you perceived in your own mind.

I was actually wondering given CT's picture, if a certain jatraquero that was present at KamaCon, does underwear modeling in his spare time, and how CT knows about it...

I tried to get someone to take a picture of the Surprise Guest signing a book, but evidently I'm the only one who is quite that nasty.

This is why I quit posting here. My only mistake was to think the outright hostility would be dropped if I only lurked. Simply amazing.

Oh, CT, after reading this thread again I caught the "feel" behind it and realized that everyone is implying things, but I wasn't doing that. I was just talking about the troll and didn't want to say a name, but only because I thought it was too rude. I wasn't playing the game, really.
Ha ha, Justa. There are plenty of trolls who fit that description, I promise.

You apparently are one of them. Insulting people when they aren't looking is no better than what you accused me of, even though I wasn't doing it in the first place.
CT, I wasn't taking you as thinking so. PSI seems to be holding a grudge.

Nor was he a cardboard cutout or a photo of a photo. He played Fluxx and Chrononaunts with us.

He also worked very hard at trying to learn people's names. He made a point of saying how much he appreciated us all here at Hatrack. Posts: 4344 | Registered: Mar 2003

Is it supposed to be somebody who looks like OSC? To me he's nothing like him. I guess that's why I didn't get the joke, huh? Posts: 2843 | Registered: A Long Time Ago!

Phfffft. Like a hotel employee would have time to sit around and play games with us all afternoon.

Nope, definitely not a hotel employee. While they were all amazingly nice and helpful, they didn't play card games with us.

His face was a bit round and his body frame was different, but since the OSC pictures I've seen are not recent ones, I might assume OSC just put on a little extra fluffiness on the edges.

You know, I've seen this face before. Snaps, I'm so bad at placing names with faces. I'm sure I'll kick myself in the arse for this one.

Uh, if we're going to get into analyzing people's personal appearance, y'all should know that we really didn't go out and pick some random stranger off the street.
Which is to say, you probably shouldn't speak (type) as if the person in question won't be reading your words.
Not that anyone here would post anything offensive about anyone's looks, but just in case . . .

Now is this the same hotel employeed who was wearing the pink shirt? And Tom found a tasteful way to ask if he was gay?

Ah, I've met him in person once. I do see that he resembles him. But would not mistake them ever. Who is this?????

Hey, Dag - it's just one more reason we have to meet one of these days.
We could have met this time if you hadn't bowed out over some flimsy excuse about a wedding or something similarly unconvincing. Posts: 4344 | Registered: Mar 2003

Okay, this has all gotten me confused (which is actually not that hard to do). Was Card there or not? In person where people could speak to him. Please someone clear this up for me.
