Speaking of dress code, I wore my underwear in public to protest Bush's second term. On campus, on election day, the campus Republicans were dressed in red with elephant earring and such.
So I wore a corset, garters, and stockings around campus with the sign: "The only Bush I trust is my own."
Wanted to give Lurkers a different mental image than Doc in a kilt.
:whistling:
Are we elitist at the Lounge? I don't think so.
I found out the day after I graduated from Hollins that I'd been accepted at the University of South Florida for graduate studies in library and information science. And when I tell everybody that I want to move in with my boyfriend, I have to eventually tell them how we met. Since the DSF is no more, I tell everybody that we met here.
And everybody's all like, "internet boyfriend?"
And I'm like, "this ain't no internet chatroom." And it's not.
We're an intelligent bunch of gamer geeks, serving in the military, Fortune 500 companies, with local and national governments, or studying for degrees.
I think it's who we are and NOT our rules that define this community. For instance, Doc plays around a lot and has put bad thoughts and naughty images into my head and he (and Occhi) have been responsible for many computer monitor beverage accidents. (Whatever I happen to be imbibing whenever I read their jokes tends to come out my nose, you see.) But I know both can make some damned convincing arguments and can be serious about it too.
Is the the rules scripted by Elric and taught by Lurkers that create this community? Nay, 'tis the Lurkers themselves.
