I've missed you. :smile: I've been checking in on you guys but somehow too busy to say hello and keep up... or something rather lame like that.
Does anyone remember me, or am I going to have to demonstrate my super-amazingness all over again? :buggrin: I don't mind. I have diagrams.
Welcome back. I hear you have sexy ears.

It must be the seasonal migration of missing PFers. Tribdog just popped in.
We're missing pengwuino.
Artman is probably off celebrating his 25th anniversary, which was yesterday. The nerve of that guy.
Congrats Artman! :biggrin:

Really? There was a tribdog sighting?

He and dduardo disappeared together. I still suspect it has something to do with penguin mating season. :tongue:

Yay. Thanks, guys. I think I have to plead the Fifth on my whereabouts. I might have been trying to convince a couple of boys that I am the greatest thing in the world and failing miserably. I can't remember just now.
Actually, I guess I was mainly learning a bit about computers and programming. And I did help a friend make a website that I think is pretty cool. It mostly builds itself. I have one background image left to make still, but when it's all up and shiny, I'll ask him if he minds sharing.
Oh, and it's true, my ears are totally hot. <wink-wink/>

am I going to have to demonstrate my super-amazingness all over again? :buggrin: I don't mind. I have diagrams.
Welcome back. I noticed your absence, but just figured that you were busy with exams or something. Demonstrations of your super-amazingness are always welcome. I'm pretty sure that I have all of the diagrams, but some updated photos would only enhance the situation. :biggrin:

I'm pretty sure that I have all of the diagrams, but some updated photos would only enhance the situation. :biggrin:Yeah, it probably should have been school.
I was actually thinking that it was about time I showed my face around here, but most of the pictures of me that I like are perhaps a little questionable for a family-friendly site. I don't think they're bad at all, but some people seem to think so. Of course, I imagine some people would interpret a picture of Mother Teresa feeding a deer to be sexually provocative, but anyway. I might have to take some new ones.
Happy Anniversary, Artman!!!

This fascinates me. If you think the pictures are questionable, I think you should submit them to a PF Admin immediately to have them considered. :biggrin:

You really should post a photo. You're about the only long-time member that hasn't, and you don't look half bad.
Anyway, I didn't really notice you were gone, because I haven't been around much, either. My excuse actually is school.
I think a bunch of people are coming back to PF for the summer.
P.S. I havn't posted a photo, am I long-term member?

Yeah, I suppose you're right. You did a post a link to your MySpace profile once, though, and that had pictures of you on it.

The pictures that I was talking about are like the ones on my OkCupid thinger (http://www.okcupid.com/profile?u=NoseRoseToes). Heh, it looks quite odd now that I look at it from... this site. It's not a terribly serious depiction of me. I keep having to add more to try to scare away some of the nice innocents who I fear are not prepared for my weirdness.
I was very sad in some of them. I think that's why I like them.
Those pictures aren't even so great, and they're from a while ago, January, I think. I took them before I read the manual, so I didn't know how to adjust everything, and they were all not focused so well and quite overexposed, so I had to play with their histograms a lot. Anyway, yeah, I don't like taking pictures of myself. :blushing: I don't like it a lot. Well, I like it in that I can be creative and expressive with it, but, yeah, I don't really like showing them to people. It's weird.

I remember your avatar. :smile:I cropped it from The Night School (http://www.artrenewal.org/asp/database/image.asp?id=13831) by Gerard Dou. He is one of my favorites. I love the light of the Dutch Masters. I've thought about changing it since some people think that it's me, but I really like it. Perhaps I could compromise and make a picture of myself that looks the same.
Very nice pictures, hrw. You are quite attractive, very beautiful I might say, and have a very interesting mind.Thanks. Yeah, I'm nuts. It's okay, you can say it. :biggrin:
I'm sure you've changed tremendously in the four months since then.I cut my hair much shorter.
You're an 82% match for me.That doesn't surprise me at all; I already know their matching algorithm doesn't work. Who are you there?
Oh yeah, Prufrock is my favorite poem.Prufrock is my favorite poem now too. You are the one who introduced me to it. I have also grown quite fond of Sad-eyed Lady of the Lowlands.

Yeah, I was just teasing. I'm still trying to figure out what having sexy ears is secret code for.Sexy ears?! I can think of a dark-haired elf in LOTR that was pretty sweet. She said in later interviews that she always wanted to have pointy ears, and I think that she is gorgeous with them.

Glad to see you, dear pal.I was about to write you if you didn't come down here tonight. I missed you tons. I've seen you in the programming section and wanted to ask how school was going, but you seem so busy, and I always end up opting not to disturb you. I do the same when I see a cool linguistics story relating to cog sci or animal communication. I'm glad you're still around. :biggrin:

Hey, Lisa!! Did I hear right, that you might have found your dream man?

Well, my dream man is only good for dreams and it's impossible to live with such a guy because of his attitudes . I've been always sure of that. So my bf can't be exactly like my dream man since he seems to be good for real life but he has alot in common with my dream man!
BTW, you look very cute!:smile: I saw your pic a few weeks ago when I was cheking your profile .

I thought the same at 1st! You know sometimes people who meet me online accuse me of being a man but I guess that's becuase I'm a bit rude and cold with people whom I don't feel good about them for some reasons!
I'm honest. It says so in my name.It also says you're a rosewater!!!
hmmm...should I tell them that they have to wait till the next 6 years ?
Why? Did her horoscope say that she'll meet her prince on a white horse exactly in 6 years, or is she in a relationship which will end exactly in 6 years? :biggrin:

But I have since changed my position on the matter. I realized it's going to take me long enough to find such a strange person as it is.
accuse me of being a man:rofl:
You know, I haven't wanted to make my avatar a photo of me because my appearance is not usually relevant to what I am saying. But you just made me realize that maybe I should make it obvious that I am a woman lest people not know that there exist women like me, who enjoy what I enjoy and can do what I can do.
Did you know that Feynman -- a pretty clever fellow -- once said in a talk about science and its teaching (http://www.fotuva.org/feynman/what_is_science.html):
I listened to a conversation between two girls, and one was explaining that if you want to make a straight line, you see, you go over a certain number to the right for each row you go up--that is, if you go over each time the same amount when you go up a row, you make a straight line--a deep principle of analytic geometry! It went on. I was rather amazed. I didn't realize the female mind was capable of understanding analytic geometry. [my emphasis]
!!!
That was only 40 years ago.
But you just made me realize that maybe I should make it obvious that I am a woman lest people not know that there exist women like me, who enjoy what I enjoy and can do what I can do.
Well, what do you enjoy and what can you do? :tongue:
Btw, maybe you should write "I'm a woman." in your signature.
honestrosewater
May14-07, 03:44 PM
Well, what do you enjoy and what can you do? :tongue:The same things that a lot of people do, but evidently I do them in a way that leaves people with false assumptions, which I can't see as being a good thing.
Btw, maybe you should write "I'm a woman." in your signature.Yes, that is an idea.
The same things that a lot of people do, but evidently I do them in a way that leaves people with false assumptions, which I can't see as being a good thing.
Doing same things in different ways equals doing different things, in the view of the majority.
And well, regarding the people you care about, you can always correct their assumptions. As for the others, who cares!

I guess it was mostly the boy thing. I did also spend a lot of time learning about and talking to computers, but that probably would have fit quite well with PF.

I don't mean that my avatar would need to be relevant, just that various studies (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=physical+attractiveness+stereotyping) have shown that a person's physical appearance/attractiveness influences the judgements that some people make about them in other areas, e.g., goodness, intelligence, successfulness, and I would rather not make it a factor either way.

You probably already know not to take anything I say seriously. That's okay though. I've been called worse things than a perv. I pretty much assume any guy is somewhat perv, until I find out otherwise. I have a sneaking suspicion most women are too, but they play their cards much closer to their chest. I think that's why they always want men to look at their eyes when they speak to them. They don't want to give away their hand.

They might come in handy someday.
