- Actually - no, I haven't unsubscribed from this group. I find you
- refreshing, and a reassurance that our gene pool is still diverse and
- multi-faceted. In other words, I find you stupid, and look forward to the
- day you come to me for a job as a maid. We can't have too many intelligent
- people running around competing for my jobs, and as long as there are people
- like you - I'll still have someone to tip in the restaurant.
- (of course, I'm purely judging you by what you type. It could be that you
- intentionally repress any individual ideas that may be lurking within you,
- so that you can just _act_ like a below average individual, rahter than _be_
- one.
-
- Now, of course you so adeptly meet my expectations of you with what you
- are about to write: YOU POST EMAIL. How quaint my fine feathered friend. Not
- only is it tactless, but it's pointless. What did it prove? Oh yes, it provd
- that you're a subtle yet annoying jackass perhaps (who has gripes against
- frat boys which probably means you're too ugly to be accepted by any of
- them, or invited to any of their parties)
- NOTE: I hate frat parties, and you should consider yourself lucky that
- you're not invited. Thing is, you obviously don't. We can tell that from
- your undisguised bitterness and bull.

- You realy thought I put much effort into replying to you in mail? I
- didn't expect it to be read by anyone above yourself. Notice I tried to keep
- sentences short, and keep my numbers of syllables down. Also - I even
- slipped a few typos in to keep you at home... If I had known you had posted
- it, I would have at least tried to spell words correktlie 8)

- Ahhh yes - implement the tactic I once knew and loved well - call anyone
- a geek over the computers, and chances are you will be right - per capita,
- most of them are geeks. Unfortunately, we aren't all geeks dear jen. In
- fact, I don't even think I could consider myself a geek. Now, I'm sure dear
- ol' mike will argue with that, but I can't see how he'd justify his
- argument. He just calls me "vanilla boy", but for what reason I know not ;)

- >>realize that I date women that would dance cerebral circles around you -

- Oh jen, if you only knew. On this computer you feel like the Queen of
- Sheba, but on the outside you're that shy girl who no one notices in class.
- This is just a guess, but you come across as another loud-mouthed (typed?)
- wanna-be socialite who's so far back in the closet, you'll never get out.
- You want to be a fun person, but you can't - so, the answer is:
- USENET
- Unfortunately you're as predictable as a conversation with a plant, and
- equally as interesting. You derive power trips from your posts to these
- groups, suckling the attention you receive from socially-malnourished
- individuals who fan each and every word you say. How quaint.
- In any case - I wish you luck Jen, and I look forward to more of your
- mental drool. Until then, keep in touch old friend.
