This is the thread in which we harass Lucky4 into posting. We all decided that since she showed up to WenchCon, we have to harass her out of her lurker status.
So...let the harassment begin!
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
*in a sing-song voice* Lucky... Lucky... If you don't post, I'm going to have to tell stories about your underwear...

Hey! I never voted for harassment! That's no way to coax a shy lurker out of her den. I wanted to ply her with alcohol but that didn't work, she won't drink.
And she gave good reasons for lurking last night on the way clubbing, so,...

Mormo, how nice of you. I also think that lurkers should be coaxed, not harrassed. And certainly not threatened, kq. Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :
Well, since Lucky4 likes my username, even without knowing the pronunciation, I definitely think it would be a good thing to see more of her! Posted by Papa Moose (Member # 1992) on :

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
Noemon, at first, when I mispronounced your sn, I was convinced you were Jewish. And I love it, btw. I love it more pronounced Jew-ly, though. Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :
Really? What would the Jewish pronunciation be? Does "noemon" mean something in Hebrew?
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
Well, I was thinking it's "NOY-mon," which is a classic Yiddish sort of grandpa name, haha... you always see, in Hebrew movies, there's a grandpa-figure character named Noemon. It's like Moyshe, or Yankel, or something.

Underwear?!? As in "My Little Pony" underwear, or red satin lace??? Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
Icarus, what are you doing in that post? Staring her into submission?
Lucky, come out and post!! You can't be a lurker once you become REAL!! Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Lucky4 is very Real and while she does have some excellent reasons for not posting regularly, we will continue to invoke her name until her post count rises.
Just a tad.
However, I am more than a little intrigued with Ketchup's underwear stories...
When Lucky was removing her Gandalf outfit, she almost took "disrobing" to new levels. Unfortunately, she caught herself in time...worse luck.

Lucky shy?
I have to say I saw no evidence of shyness. Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
*waves to Lucky4*
Raia, I think you're hearing a Brooklynization of "Norman" in those movies. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
She might have been a little timid for the first half hour or so...
But when she started returning fire, I knew she'd be just fine.
She did, however, make quite an impression on the guys on the dance floor Saturday night.

Have you seen Salach Shabati? With Chaim Topol?

Probably have not seen that. But I can tell you that there is no Yiddish name that sounds remotely like "Noyman" -- not that I've ever heard, anyway. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Lucky - I never got the call about Sunday afternoon, so I apologize for not being able to say goodbye.

Shy on HR, not RL. She's saucy in RL. Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
But . . . But . . . But . . . Lucky could be saucy here, too. We'd let her and everything. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Hence the purpose of this thread.
Although I think Ketchup Queen has dibs on the descriptor.
-Trevor
Posted by aspectre (Member # 2222) on :
Well, it's obvious by now that Lucky4 wants to hear her underwear tales told on this forum. So to ensure that Lucky4 is thoroughly entertained, remember to add details spicier than those in her own memory.
BTW: Does Lucky4 have a more-than-average interest in Chinese and/or Japanese culture?

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Well, if it's obvious... Since we all changed in front of each other, I know details...
I'm reluctant to tell, though. And I'm "saucy" now, am I? I thought Ben got saucy.
At least, when he doesn't get "fatherly". Apparently. Posted by Goody Scrivener (Member # 6742) on :
well, you know you *are* a condiment, KQ <ducking and running>
Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
I'm glad you made it back safely Ketchup, allowing for your airport difficulties.
And yes, Ben was quite fatherly - unless we're ready to call little Ketchup's taste in men into question already.

Well, fatherly is good in a future minister, right? And he was quite fatherly with her-- even if he was a "jerk" to me.
Let's make up a song about Lucky's underwear! *thinks*
Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
I have a thread with my name on it!!
*Does a happy dance resembling a saucy salsa*
I will never understand how in the name of peace this thread came to be about my underwear.
Thanks to everyone who has boosted my ego by telling me to delurk! Are you sure you know what you're getting yourselves into?! I'm going to try to post more, but old habits die hard. We'll see how it goes...
Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :
Does this mean no underwear stories?
'cause if it does, I'm leaving.

Two words: sleep deprivation. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
There once was a girl named Lucky, Who's spirit was quite plucky;
Her drawers, the subject of talk, At our humor, she did balk;
Quoth Lucky, "Oh, stroke the ducky."

Aw well, it probably would've been an .
Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Actually, it was one of several wonderful "out of context" entries Lucky was kind enough to grace us with.
-Trevor
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Actually, she was just the worst. All of us were doing it this morning. I think it was because we hadn't slept much.
Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :
No complaint here, it's all good. It's all about response. An' no, I probably don't want to hear about the underwear anyway. It's just a little too private for me to hear.
Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
quote: Quoth Lucky, "Oh, stroke the ducky."
For the record, I had absolutely no part in that! (ahem, Frisco and KQ...)
Also, I think the whole underwear thing was an empty threat. There's really nothing too exciting or out of the ordinary about my drawers.
Any conversation about my undergarments would be brief. (that pun was just for you, Trevor!)
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
The "stroke the duck" thing was KQ, Frisco, and Ben. I think Lucky was just sitting in the back laughing too hard to add anything to that...er...exchange (that was me, too). Still, I'm glad to see that we managed to harass you out of hiding, Lucky. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Hey Megan - it looks like I'm on evening duty all this week.
Give me a call and let's see about coordinating a lunch instead.

*takes a bow* I will never be able to hear "Rubber Ducky" or look at Emma's bath toys the same way again.
Posted by Mormo (Member # 5799) on :
Yes, watching a prim young Mormon woman mime "rubber" in charades was worth the price of admission.
Which I forgot to pay, oops. I'll send you a check, Olivia.
One thing that surprised me about Lucky (and I guess some other lurkers as well, who knows?) was how much she got out of Hatrack without interacting much. She knows all the major in-jokes and themes, most posters, and even a lot of the minor threads. She also said that even with member turnover, HR is similar in some ways to when she started, with the same joke and controversy threads lodged in HR's communal memory.
I tend to think of HR as just a private message board, with new members joining, but of course it's not private, anybody can read it.
After meeting her, I see lurkers in a new and better light.
[Edit: She also told me that Lady Jane=Katy from Dallas, or was that KQ?)

I'm real and i still tend to lurk.
Posted by Olivetta (Member # 6456) on :
Trevor! I'm so sorry about not calling on Sunday until late. We were just waiting around the meeting room watching Frisco and Ben throw a big ball of aluminum foil at each other, waiting to hear about kq's flight.
Which got way more complicated for everyone involved than I would have liked. *bites tongue to prevent apologizing for everything*
But I AM sorry about that. I thought that I was going to call you and tell you when to meet people at the Center for Puppetry Arts, but we realized we wouldn't be able to go there before we left the restaurant, and I thought you'd just come back. Mea Culpa
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

I felt so dumb when the Head Wench demonstrated how easy "rubber" is to break into "rub" and "brrr", but once you get something like that in your head, it's just impossible to think of anything else. (Hence the ending up on the floor laughing.)
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
Lucky is one Hot Wench. And she makes a very excellent Gandalf.
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Especially when made taller by her Sexy Boots. Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
You've already apologized. Profusely. For something you have no need to apologize over.
Olivetta...get over it. Besides, I really, really needed that shower.
And yes, Lucky was an amazing Gandalf. I never knew old men could look so hot. Although I have to admit, I am kinda biased since she flashed me.
Next time, Mormo carries the notepad for any future "out of context" notes.
-Trevor
Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :
Ya know KQ, for being a nice, proper Mormon girl, you have an amazingly dirty imagination.
And that's a compliment.
-Trevor
Posted by Mormo (Member # 5799) on :
Cool! That way I can edit my own to make them funnier-- I mean more accurate.
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Actually, Trevor, I'm a Mormon married woman. There's an important difference. Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
And who said anything about nice and proper? Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
quote: since she flashed me.
Can we just go ahead and clarify (before the thread takes another serious nosedive) that it was a) inadvertant and b) probably so slight that it still left many things to the imagination. In the event that I'm mistaken about part b, just don't tell me.
You guys are hilarious. Again, thanks for being so nice to me. Morbo, I thought that was a particularly insightful and well stated post about lurkers, thanks for that.

Carry on with the wenching. Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
Trevor, I've sent you 8 e-mails now. They each have a mega-attatchment, though, and I know hotmail is historically slow with things like that... I haven't gotten a "delievery failure" message yet, though. I'm about to send e-mail 9.

10th and final e-mail, with the last of the 51 (I think) pics and captions has been sent. Let me know if you don't get them within 2 days. In fact, let me know when you do get them, too.
Yay!

You have great snappy comebacks, Lucky!

And you're a good dancer, too. Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
Thanks, Ela. I learned all my moves from you! Posted by Ela (Member # 1365) on :
I love to dance.
Going dancing tonight...
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
You know the phrase "Dance like nobody's watching"? I follow it...cause that's the only time I dance...when nobody's watching!
Except my puppies, of course!
Posted by Ela (Member # 1365) on :
Hmm. I have to say I dance both when people are watching and when they are not watching. Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
I mostly dance in a purposefully amusing manner for either improv games or Emma's amusement. I also occasionally pick her up for a waltz, a two-step, or an Irish jig or reel. I used to waltz, two-step, foxtrot, and cha-cha with my dad, but obviously I can't when he lives so far away.
That's the only dancing I really do.
Posted by Ela (Member # 1365) on :
*dances*
Posted by Olivetta (Member # 6456) on :
BTW, Lucky totally dances like a pro. She practices in fromnt of a mirror, I bet.
Well, she did confess to lipsynching and doing some moves while listening to music in her car. That internet cafe was way too warm, and they must havethought we were crazy dancing over in the corner. But Lucky had some moves. Posted by Ben (Member # 6117) on :
I, on the other hand, dance like a nervous 8th grader. All at the club can vouch. Unless I'm alone or with Lindsay. If that's the case, i shake booty like it's going out of style.

Oh, I love that picture, though! You have the cutest expression on your face!
Though, if you prefer, there's this one...
Posted by Ela (Member # 1365) on :
Wow, I look skinny in that one. I don't feel that skinny.
You're right though, the facial expression is better in the other. Posted by Olivetta (Member # 6456) on :
Ben... nervous 8th grader? YOu and Frisco made gringing Wench Sandwishes out of us on the dancefloor. Hardly an 8th grader move. Well, maybe...

She's got some observation this morning, as in being observed on the job. She was on AIM for a bit.
Posted by Ela (Member # 1365) on :
Actually, she was being observed in clinicals for her nursing program. I chatted with her too. Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
Tis true!
I just got home, as a matter of fact. The observation (by my professor) of me on the job went wonderfully; the physician I work with kept complimenting me and generally making me look good- I think he's just getting soft and sentimental in his old age!
Thanks for caring about me!
Posted by Mormo (Member # 5799) on :
