Back in the day, the Playground was full of warm fuzzies and loves and squishes, all coming out of one thread- The Crush Thread.
It stood around for about ten threads before falling away into nothingness. As usually occurs in the Facebook Chat, us old timers became nostalgic, and the topic turned to the olden days of The Crush Thread and all that came from it.

I feel like there are quite a few newer posters who never experienced this, and, upon a double doggy dare from Moff Chumley, here I come with this gift.

Post your crushes, your "I like you-like you"s, your teasing "I have a crush but I won't tell who"s. {Scrubbed}

Let the fun begin.

I feel that since this is my fault I should go first:
I used to crush on Cassie like madcrazy. But who didn't, amirite? Also, Mauve to a certain extent, back in the day.

Few more, some slightly more current, that I don't feel the need to disclose at this juncture. :smalltongue:

I had a crush on Qaera, my joking internet love. Can't blame me for that one.:smallredface:

I don't actually think I have any at the moment though.

Had some brolove for Sneak. (All right, the truth is I like his avataring so much).


Not sure if I really crushed on anyone, but I do keep reminding Tiff Lirle that I'm still hiding behind my Bush of Admiration +5.

Who am I kidding? I spent a few minutes thinking it over, the list is now up to 7. Perhaps unsurprisingly, 5 of the 7 were all a part of the old community storytelling thread.

KILL THE MUTANT!

PURGE THE UNCLEAN!

...nnnnoooooooot quite, nope. And yes, credits for W40K material go to the Black Library, et cetera, et al.

~flip through the Archive~ Hmm. Oh. Here we go. One of the apparently not-quite-old ones. Dated February 6, 2008. Entitled...

"To dreams so dark of thee"

Alas, O my mistress of the night
Here burns indeed so bright
Of thy awake'd eyes
Such soul-searing
Beauty
That I reel like one blinded with brew
Drunk with devotion
To thee
But as the Robber of Frosts
Did so sagely say
"I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep"
E'en so, 'tis so with me
These promises
And pledges
My debts to thee and thine
Once these I've paid
'Tis off with me
To dreams
So dark
Of thee

Heh. Old times' sake.

If we lived closer together, I might possibly consider maybe the option of perhaps asking Moff on a date, for funsies, depending on how well we got on in person. Just puttin' it out there, Moffster :smallwink:

If we were each other's types (and, you know, he weren't taken), I'd crush on Grlump so hard. But we're not, so instead he's my Official Little Brother in the Playground.

The guy I crushed on last time defriended me over an argument we had, so I guess that's done with...

I have a love-hate girl-crushthingy on RabbitHoleLost. Pretty much the same with Warkitty, but without the hate bit :smalltongue:

And something else which is secret. Secret, I say!

Gwyn chan 'r Gwyll
2012-05-27, 01:59 PM
I definitely have a playground crush on Warkitty as well.

And bro-crushes on like, so many people. Chumley, obviously, but also Seff. Only Seff is more like a big-brother kinda thing sometimes, which is weird because I don't have any elder siblings.

Oh, and I've told Em that, had I lived in her vicinity, I totally would have asked her out, and she replied that she totally would say yes had I lived in her vicinity and had I asked her out.

I still have a slight crush for Curly. And Rabbit as well. And if Rogue was still here, I'd still have a crush on her.

*looks down list of people who have posted and been mentioned*
Crush on Rabbit, on Castaras. I think if I had known Rogue I would have crushed on her, but I hardly knew Rogue. Like, I remember her, but I never really talked to her.

Serps and Mauve are definitely people I'd love to hang out with, but not sure if "crush" is the appropriate word...

Avocado's another of the guys who I just want to hang with.

I'm not entirely sure how one could develop a crush on someone they've never seen, met or known beyond the odd scribblings on an online forum. I'm aware it that it happens, just that it seems a really strange phenomenon. Unless of course this is pretty much all based on extensive PMs or socialising outside of the forum context.

Yeah, I did put up a couple pictures. Of me and my halloween costume a couple years back?

I actually feel better about my appearance than I used to a couple years ago (despite of and somehow at the same time thanks to my jerkass whale of a roommate I had this year. It got to the point where I actually bought a couple pairs of much shorter shorts than I usually wear. Why? I ride my bike a lot; I've got the thighs and butt for those. She. Does. NOT! :smalleek:) Thanks. :smallsmile:

Heh, thanks. But no, never been approached with interest by anybody. Not that I'd know someone was flirting with me anyway. But I am only 18, there's still hope!

I don't have a crush on any playgrounders, largely because there's a big mental block there.

So many memories of this thread.

Most of my crushes are on RL people nowadays :smallfrown:. Past Crushes (going back many years... *nostalgia trip*) consist of DD, Magtok, Exachix, Gwyn, Saurous. Recent "Damn, that person is awesome.", aka the girlies I wuvs, consist of Heliomance, Curly, Serpy, Rabbit, Moon_Called (hardly see you around nowadays, sad panda :smallfrown:), DeeRee (miss you too!).

I also have a few people whom I dearly adore/d murdering horribly: Timberwolf (gosh-darned midget patrol), KuReshtin(nukeynuke), Darius Midnite(I'm clearly a better drow than you :smallamused:), The_Chilli_God (can't even remember what it began over... stealing my waves in kiss-kill, or something?).

And there's a list of damn awesome people that are awesome people I'm friends with and/or admire greatly from afar that is definitely pretty damn long:

Smee, Thufir, Archie, Llama, Fenric, wxDruid, Mauve Shirt, Alarra, Cobra Ikari, Reinholdt, The Rose Dragon (KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN :smalltongue:), Zombywoof, Nameless, Grimbold, Mauve Shirt, Zeratul, Captain Van Der Decken, Jibar, Phase, Korith, Vespe, Bath...

Damnit. Out of time to write more people's names. I dearly love you playground in general. <3

I'm aware it that it happens, just that it seems a really strange phenomenon. Unless of course this is pretty much all based on extensive PMs or socialising outside of the forum context.

Why should forum interaction be any less valid than other forms of interaction for developing an attraction to someone? Why should PMs be more valid? You can be attracted to people having met them as part of a group. Text-based communication is just fine for conveying a personality, which is kind of a big thing for developing a serious crush, and if physical appearance is an issue, well, we have a thread for that too.
Why shouldn't people develop crushes here, same as they would anywhere else, on or off the internet?

Not that I'd know someone was flirting with me anyway.

I've had that issue. Sometimes afterwards I'll be like "Wait, was that flirting?" But it's very rare for me to even consider the possibility while it's happening, unless I'm looking for it.

And of course Lix, because everyone's crushing on Lix. It's like she stole the mind control from the mods.

Why should forum interaction be any less valid than other forms of interaction for developing an attraction to someone? Why should PMs be more valid? You can be attracted to people having met them as part of a group. Text-based communication is just fine for conveying a personality, which is kind of a big thing for developing a serious crush, and if physical appearance is an issue, well, we have a thread for that too.
It's not really a matter of validity - it's just that a discussion forum seems to present more obstacles than other methods of text-based communication. Besides the obvious restrictions on what can and cannot be discussed, the nature of how forums are structured rather skews the kind of communication going on and the personal information it conveys. Most conversations tend to be structured and quite focussed on a specific subject - usually related to a form of entertainment - and outside of a couple of threads there's not exactly much opportunity for a more general talk, which I'd say is rather useful for getting a feel for much of a personality beyond what they think about topic x and how they discuss/argue. Not vital, no, but certainly useful. The sheer number of users can also present an additional problem of individual faces being lost in the crowd.



Again, not saying it's impossible or anything - this thread wouldn't really be hear if it was, after all - just that it seems rather more difficult. That the facebook chat-group - i.e. a smaller, more informal off-site social environment - seems to be mention quite a lot in this thread may back thatup a bit.



Why shouldn't people develop crushes here, same as they would anywhere else, on or off the internet?

I'm not saying they shouldn't. If they do then more power to them.

Really? I'm actually surprised to be included in that. I was totally not expecting my name to pop up... Especially going back many years: it wasn't until, like, 2009 that I was even posting at any rate, and even then...



Moon_Called (hardly see you around nowadays, sad panda :smallfrown:)

Aye, I'd second this. I actually have a piece of paper on my dresser that says, in my hand-writing, for some odd reason, "Mauve Called", and I've wondered for, like, 2 years, why I combined Mauve and Moon_Called into one person, or perhaps I thought Mauve telephoned me? And WHEN did I actually write it, was it a dream? Yeah, that's one of the weird tiny mysteries...

I... don't really have any Playground crushes anymore. My past obsessive infatuation with Viola has completely crushed my ability to have crushes. Though I suppose I kinda have a crush on LaZodiac... She's my little sister though, so I don't think that'll work out.

And no, I do not have a crush on you-know-who. :smallannoyed::smalltongue:

It's not really a matter of validity - it's just that a discussion forum seems to present more obstacles than other methods of text-based communication. Besides the obvious restrictions on what can and cannot be discussed, the nature of how forums are structured rather skews the kind of communication going on and the personal information it conveys. Most conversations tend to be structured and quite focussed on a specific subject - usually related to a form of entertainment - and outside of a couple of threads there's not exactly much opportunity for a more general talk, which I'd say is rather useful for getting a feel for much of a personality beyond what they think about topic x and how they discuss/argue.

Focused, maybe, structured, nuh uh. And picking up their personality isn't really about what they say - it's about how they say it. What they pick out, what excites them, what annoys them, how they express those emotions. That's easily enough personality for a crush.


The sheer number of users can also present an additional problem of individual faces being lost in the crowd.

And that's completely irrelevant. Your crushes are always the ones who stand out from the crowd in your perception.

But other than that, carry on and spread the love.This would mean I couldn't pass on anything from it to here (and noone else should either, obviously!), but if anyone feels the need to confess this stuff anonymously the Playground Post Secret is still going - on Facebook (under "Playground Post Secret") and on Photobucket (username GiantInThePlayground, password playground). Like I said, won't be able to be posted here, but Playgrounders will see it.
Oh yes.

Most of my crushes are on RL people nowadays :smallfrown:. Past Crushes (going back many years... *nostalgia trip*) consist of DD, Magtok, Exachix, Gwyn, Saurous. Recent "Damn, that person is awesome.", aka the girlies I wuvs, consist of Heliomance, Curly, Serpy, Rabbit, Moon_Called (hardly see you around nowadays, sad panda :smallfrown:), DeeRee (miss you too!).

Ow yeah, mentioned first.:smallcool:

Of the playgrounders...The one that I still have a crush upon would be Castaras. Then again, it did help that we've met IRL twice at meet-ups.:smalltongue:

There are a good amount of people that I used to crush but either that person or I just don't visit as much anymore or just lost contact. I suppose they're still as awesome but I don't know, I don't really miss them.(silly real life taking up too much time)

But yes, for nostalgia's sake, mentions to Em(especially you :smallredface:), Nadia, Gem, Ego, and a couple of others.(Have I ever crushed upon you? Then you can count yourself in this list. I blame not mentioning you on a long, long weekend.)

But yes, so much nostalgia. Almost, almost enough to make me dig out ye olde charts....

This post is awesome. also, I crush your avatar. =P



On a more serious note, I've crushed on half the playground at some point or another, and it'd take days to list all the people I'd like to cuddle. But if I had to list crushes...hmm. Blackfox and Moon Called, who were originally supercrushes of mine and are now more like my favorite friends I met through here...Warkitty, who's all very awesome and I look up to and stuff...and LaZodiac, who is just amazing and terribly swoonworthy and gosh I like her. :smallredface:

Surprising amount of people "Crushing" on me. I don't crush on anyone, but here's a list of people I really want to meet:
Em

I think we have to hang out someday. No I KNOW we have to hang out someday.

But yes, for nostalgia's sake, mentions to Em(especially you :smallredface:)
Nostalgia crushes yes! Nostalgia crushes (which are people for whom I have a bundle of indefinable feels that can really only be described as nostalgia) include: DD, CMOTdibbler, A Rainy Knight, Dr. Bath, Haruki Kun, Almighty Salmon, Gaelbert and tons and tons of others probably.

... I used to totally crush on Lixie, and also Rabs. And Em. Nowadays, though, I've grown far from the playground and no longer do my crushes reside here.
Yeah my Playground crushes now are 90% friend/admiration/platonic adoration crushes. But shucks, Rae! I forget, am I friends with you on Facebook? 'Cause I feel like I am but I completely suck at connecting names with usernames. :smalltongue:

There's a number of people I find awesome though, but I mostly recognize you by your avatars. :smallredface:

These people include Moonshadow, CoffeeIncluded and Serpentine (whom I give three thumbs up for travelling the world and meeting Playgrounders like I'd want to), as well as my homebrewin' master friend The-Mage-King.

Yes, but that's after you develop the crush. Before that happens they'll probably be just another username which, assuming it takes multiple interactions on a forum to develop a crush, would pose an obstacle to actually getting to that point.

While there are a great number of people on this forum whom I consider to be my friends, others who I admire and respect, and those who fulfil both categories, I don't believe I have what I would consider a crush on anyone.

But then, my definition is probably very narrow in comparison.

All the "obstacle" of having to have multiple interactions means is that it takes a little while. Considering that there's many Playgrounders who have been here for more than half a decade... and this i s at least the 3rd thread like this we've had... and this one is already up to several pages... and there have been many friendships, relationships and even marriages that have developed from this forum... I'm not really sure what you're arguing :smallconfused: It sorta feels like you're trying to argue how unlikely it is that the sun would rise yesterday, when we already know it did.

Not to mention, someone can stand out based on one interaction. That may not be enough to instantly spark a crush, but it can certainly be enough that you carry a distinct memory.

And, if you screw up big time, said memory will haunt your Playground (or any other forum) days forever. Much like the outside world, so I agree with everybody else: The Username and Avatar act much like the face of a distant person, so I don't think it's more of an obstacle than real life.

So many memories of this thread.

Same. I remember the first time this thread popped up. Unless it was another go at a previously died series of Crush threads.


Most of my crushes are on RL people nowadays :smallfrown:. Past Crushes (going back many years... *nostalgia trip*) consist of DD, Magtok, Exachix, Gwyn, Saurous. Recent "Damn, that person is awesome.", aka the girlies I wuvs, consist of Heliomance, Curly, Serpy, Rabbit, Moon_Called (hardly see you around nowadays, sad panda :smallfrown:), DeeRee (miss you too!).

Yay! My little sister still loves me!
I pretty much agree with all these in a way, by the way, which is kind of awkward for some for reasons you'll see later.


I also have a few people whom I dearly adore/d murdering horribly: Timberwolf (gosh-darned midget patrol), KuReshtin(nukeynuke), Darius Midnite(I'm clearly a better drow than you :smallamused:), The_Chilli_God (can't even remember what it began over... stealing my waves in kiss-kill, or something?).

Oh Lord I remember The_Chilli_God! You two had so much hate-love, and I don't even know if he's still on the forums, I hope he is, but I suspect he's not. And that's terrible.


And there's a list of damn awesome people that are awesome people I'm friends with and/or admire greatly from afar that is definitely pretty damn long:

Smee, Thufir, Archie, Llama, Fenric, wxDruid, Mauve Shirt, Alarra, Cobra Ikari, Reinholdt, The Rose Dragon (KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN :smalltongue:), Zombywoof, Nameless, Grimbold, Mauve Shirt, Zeratul, Captain Van Der Decken, Jibar, Phase, Korith, Vespe, Bath...

Damnit. Out of time to write more people's names. I dearly love you playground in general. <3

. . .
You've met Thufir, Archie, Jibbers and Vespe, up above you've got/had crushes/various feels for loads of people you've met too.
I hereby declare that the best way to be crushed upon by Cassie is to meet her. No surprises there then.

Me?
Well,

My first major crush ever was Dr. Bath. Well, aside from my wonderful Freddie Mercury.

I've got platonic crushes on, and Playground adopted/been adopted by: Cassie and DeeRee (long-lost triplets forever! *hi-fives*), DD (he's too adorable to not be a little brother), Rabbit (awesome sister), Phoe-sama (she writes like a goddess and is the best cool auntie type ever. Or was she a mother?), Sweetrein (also awesome), Helgraf, Andre, ER, Gwyn, M_C, ruki-chan loads more.
I've also unofficially Playground adopted/got platonic crushes on: Serpy (she doesn't know this yet, but she's kind of an amazing big sister), dragonprime (need I say more?), CoffeeIncluded (every time I see her I just want to give her a hug) and Cobra.

People I just think are awesome (and may or not not have had - or still have - have a crush on (platonic or otherwise)):
Most people listed above, and

It's probably preferred that you have a crush on someone you're with, unless your definition of "crush" contains the words "unrequited" in which case probably not! What I'm saying is, yes, it counts.

Crushing the Crushes: Crunch Edition.

Thufir
2012-05-28, 08:07 PM
OK, so my actual list. I was considering digging up some of the old formatting from past Crush threads, with the categories or the fancy colour-coding, but effort. So I'm just going to say people and things about them.

OK.

Nameless is still ridiculously pretty and also pretty cool. Malfunctioned similarly, though I'd be more inclined to say handsome or something than pretty in his case.
Heliomance is pretty and interesting and I want to meet.
Rawhide, as previously noted, gets a crush for being awesome.
Jibar has a certain something about him.
Grlump is pretty cute, and also cool and we click pretty well.
Smee, PhoeKun and SweetRein all kind of fall into a category of being prettyy hot and also awesome but I don't really feel I know any of them.
I miss DeeRee. She was DeeRee.
Cycoris, also, though she does come back on occasion. (...I don't mean Cycoris was also DeeRee, just to be clear)
Ego I liked, though she was also my Playground mother, despite the fact I think she's younger than me IRL.
Gwyn is like a young, Canadian Benedict Cumberbatch.
Unosarta was quite adorable. What happened to that guy?
Curly, obvs.
Rabbit is Rabbit. Serp is Serp. I'm not sure if I'm just running out of adjectives or if it's just harder to pin down specific details on why I like the people I know better? Though I'm not entirely sure of the extent of my Serp-crush? I think it's pretty much just a friend-crush now.
Cassie... I really have run out of decent applicable adjectives, and I've already overused the "[Name] is [Name]". Something about adorability and nukes I guess.
Kneenibble, why do you not live in this country? Please move.

It's possible I've forgotten people, but since I've probably run out of suitable vocabulary to describe them anyway, I'm gonna stop now.

OK, so my actual list. I was considering digging up some of the old formatting from past Crush threads, with the categories or the fancy colour-coding, but effort.Oh yeah, I remember that! Was that my fault?

Though I'm not entirely sure of the extent of my Serp-crush? I think it's pretty much just a friend-crush now....now?

Loosely topical, here's a Nice Young Men I've Spent Delightful Days Doing Date-Like Activities With List:
- Archonic Energy. You always remember your first...
- Dvil. If I'd been into you, you could've seduced me in that Necropolis. Even without... Well :smallwink:
- Sinderman. Taken, alas... (also kinda intimidating <.<)
- Hazyshade. I still can't remember exactly what we *did*...
- Tasroth. Definitely a pleasant surprise.
- Thufir. I'd probably flirt with him more if I didn't suspect he carries a torch for another. Also: issues (mine). Mostly the latter.
- Totally Guy. We went on outings :3
- GrlumpTheElder. I could just spend forever with him...
- --Lime--. Well, I already said I was considering attempting to remove the "-Like" from "Date-Like", so need I say more?
Whom have I missed?

I am okay with my trip overseas being dominated by the above :smallsmile:

I would list you as a crush, but I feel like its really, really improper, what with my tendency to get into trouble. I feel like, if I were to list you as a crush, I would have to have a completely squeaky clean record, which I do not possess.
But let me tell you, Rawhide, if I felt like it were appropriate, you would be a top crush.

Pfft. No one has to be "squeaky" clean. It's not like I'm a cop that could get into disciplinary issues if I associate with the underworld. Also, everyone makes mistakes, I honestly don't care about someone's past history of incidents in the playground, only that they want to be here and want to do right by this forum, its rules, and the community.

I don't really have crushes anymore, for I have seen to grow colder since the last relationship I had. Turns out that I am not fitted for love and that kind of stuff.
I have one guy that would sort of qualify as a crush, but I know him from somewhere else, and truth be told, he deserves better than me. I just hope to be able to kiss him before he finds said better person.

Still, I think some people are awesome, interesting, hot and sexy, though, such as Rabbit, Reina, Phoe, Rawhide, Trog, Castaras, Indurian, Serpentine, 'Ruki, Vael, Lykan, Kneenibble, Cycori, Cobra Ikari, Midnight Son, among others whose nicks I fail to remember now, as it has been so long since I last interacted with them.
One wouldn't see me pursuing anything other than a hug and friendship with any of those now, though.

Semi-related: I used to crush Ego, even though I thought she hated me. Then we met in person, which was yay, and she said she crushed me back, which was extra yay...and then I completely ****ed everything up and lost a really good friendship with an awesome girl. =\

I used to have a crush on one person hereabouts. They left some time ago. We kept in touch for awhile, but had a nasty fight and broke all ties. I wish I could reach out to them, say I was sorry, try to rebuild that connection, but some things cannot be fixed. Shame, really.

Today, I don't really have any crushes, not due to a lack of interesting or nice people, but mostly because I'm not really here anymore. I barely post these days. Been thinking about quietly slipping into the dark, but eh, as long as a few interesting threads remain, so shall I.

There are a lot of people on here I'm incredibly fond of (and a big shout-out to the LGBTA-thread crew, you guys & gals rock!), there's a few in particular that are really close to me.

Cassie - If I were about 10 years younger, I'd be casting lovey-dovey eyes in your direction, m'dear. :smallwink:

Curly - You are quite the attractive young lady as well with an incredibly skillful tongue....:smalltongue:

Kneenibble & Heliomance - If there are two people on here capable of making me question my sexuality, it's you two gorgeous people. :smallredface:

Thufir, Tasaroth, Archie & Qwaz - We're definitely in bro-crush territory here. You're really fun to hang out with and I'm looking forward to seeing you all again in Newcastle.

There is one young lady on here who holds a special place in my heart. She's attractive in all senses of the word and makes me feel a hundred times better about myself and the world when she's nearby. A little birdy tells me she's already seeing another Playgrounder. I just wish it could have been me. :smallfrown::smallredface:

Anyone else remember the elaborate color-coding system we had to classify crushes?

I feel like I've been substantially less active around here of late. Pretty much only reading subscribed threads Seems like the crushes I had died out with the lack of interaction with the objects of my affections (which mostly resulted from the old story thread closing down). Well, that and developing a serious RL crush on someone who is not a Playgrounder, but that several Playgrounders met last October.

Most of the people I admire from here that I remember are on my FB and at this point I'm more used to seeing their RL names than playground monickers. And some of them I haven't seen in the playground for quite a long time for one reason or another.

When did I get so popular? This time last year I bet no-one would have known who I was, let alone liked me (in a forumanical way)...

While I have no amorous crushes here on the playground (I find it hard to crush on people based on typed messages and 120x120 px avatars alone) there are a lot of awesome people on this forum whom I would consider friends, including (but not limited to)

Fifty-Eyed Fred (went to school and wrote a play/book with him, so he sort of commands the top spot on the list)
Serpentine (My Big-sis in the playground :D)
Thufir (G&S FTW)
Totaly Guy (An Awesome guy)
Rae (first person on the playground, excluding FEF, that I considered a friend)

There, that's a start. I'll put more up later if ye wish.

When did I get so popular? This time last year I bet no-one would have known who I was, let alone liked me (in a forumanical way)...

You came to meetups!

You came to meetups!

Meetups are like...crush refiners, IMO. You get a better handle on how much the crush would work IRL.

I miss going to them. I miss the people at them. I miss the people who don't go to them anymore. v.v

Ooooh, and Perry. Perenelle's like my little sister-who-I-don't-talk-to-as-much-as-I-should.

squee. x3

Hmm, biggest crush here would have to be Gwyn. Whom, as he mentioned in his post, I definitely need to talk to more. And I will totally be driving way up to Canada the first chance I get to meet him. <333

Others include Eruantion, Rabbit, AtlanteanTroll, Cobra, Nameless (from a lonnggg time ago), and Dragonprime. :smallsmile: I'm probably forgetting someone though...

Gwyn had a special place in my heart before Erauntion! :smalltongue:

But I don't really consider Eruantion in the crush stage anymore. Does it count as a crush if you've been dating them for almost two years? I don't really know. I still felt obligated to list him though, so I did. :smallredface: :smallsmile:

Perenelle! I definitely have an admiration crush on Perenelle.

Speaking of admiration crushes, I have more: Chunklets, Indurain, Bor, Cobra. Probably waaaaay more.

EDIT: Also, I have a "you're impossibly handsome" crush on Malfunctioned.

Strangely enough, I've come to realize I had an avataring crush on Serp and her many different avvies, like the Ōkami avatar she once made for me.

Also, one for EleventhHour.

I love that I've started a post on here around five times, and then never really know what I want to actually say. I will say then I guess that there are a few crushes, ex-crushes, platonic relations out there. But let's get down to the real subject, if I switched sides, it'd be for Indurain. :smallwink::smalltongue::smallbiggrin:

I'm still confused as to why that second one is listed as a con. Or which standard bro rules apply in the first place. Or who these people are.

Could be wrong, but I think the point you're missing is that none of that post is really meant to be taken seriously.

All my crushes got moved to the either "admiring" or "purely platonic" columns since the whole getting-a-spouse thing. I think it's in the contract somewhere. Yeah, same here. That and I stopped being super active on the boards. I do have a bunch of people that are still on my 'would love to meet you' list, mostly that live overseas, because I go to a ridiculous amount of meetups over here, so if you've ever attended even one I've probably met you. (Death, Charity, Serps, Ruki, Sneak, Kantur, Scorpina, ZP, Karoht, Dizzy, Roland, Vaynor, Fax, Truemane, Cassie, Elvaris, Curly, just to name a few...man, some of these people I haven't seen in foreeeeever...)

I do have a totally real crush on Indurain though. He knows it, Zeb knows it, seems to be working out fine. :smalltongue:

Serpentine
2012-06-19, 08:12 PM
Yeah, Serpentine isn't old.

And even if she was, who'd care? She's very pretty and attractive.One of my crushes is 10 years younger than me...

I'm feeling mooshy. It's probably cuz I'm sick. So here's some mooshiness.

I really, really admire Totally Guy for his nudism stuff. From a joke "look what I'm doing on the weekend!" that became "I may as well..." to nude bike riding even though your friends piked on you? Much, much respect.

I've ended up liking Thufir far more than I was expecting to, and I take it far too personally and paranoidily when he's being quiet - I'm pretty sure it really is just quiet, but dammit it feels like cold shoulder and I'm all "oh noes what'd I do?!" But I love how involved he is with theatre and stuff, and everyone needs to get a hug from him someday because they're amazing.

One of the saddest things about leaving the UK will be that it'll probably be years before I'll get to see Grlump again :smallfrown: But it will happen! He will come to Australia, and we shall go on a delightful romp to Uluru! ...or, you know, somewhere I can actually afford to go. Like the Great Barrier Reef :B

I admire Smee for being so... open and honest. About everything - sexuality, circumstances, woes, the lot. I want to be like her when I grow up.

I admire KuReshtin for being so comfortable in himself, and I swear I will pay you back as soon as I have any spare money. I am so sorry -.-

I was more sad than I like to admit when I saw that Mal has a (totally adorable) SO now <.<

Qwaz is incredibly cool, and teh secks. I like just hanging out and talking for ages about ponies and sex and people and stuff.

I said before that I have a love-hate crush thing going on with RabbitHoleLost, but really I think the hate part of it is pretty much all gone nowadays. Someday we will go to a meet-up together, and there will be explosions everywhere.

Galathir, my lovely DM, makes me hungry because he is a culinarily talented bastard who needs to host - and cook for - a real-life game (...at which I am present, obviously) P:

I admire --Lime-- for coming through some seriously crappy stuff to be a wonderfully entertaining and chill dude.

I want to be Agamid. Srsly. At least with the "having and being awesome with reptiles" bit. I have a pretty major girl-crush on her... And if my suspicions about a particular Secret are true, then I admire her a lot for that.

Whatever Dispozition says, he's gorgeous (dem lips!) and crazy talented.

I am terribly happy at the teensy glimmer of potential hope of a possible Kneenibble-me hook-up, because Elbowbiter is just the best. I'm so, so glad he's come back to fairly regular posting.

...speaking of which, I wish Death, Your Friend The Reaper would come back :smallfrown:


Hokay, I think mooshy has deteriorated into sick-and-sleepy, so that'll have to do.

I'm acutely aware of how hard it can potentially be to spot a meaning one intends to convey if you're not overly clear about it. So you can rest assured, if I wanted you to feel bad, I'd put more effort into it.


But I love how involved he is with theatre and stuff, and everyone needs to get a hug from him someday because they're amazing.

N'awww.
Also, you heard it here first, people. Now if you'll just get yourselves to the Newcastle area and form an orderly queue, I'm sure I can fit you all in.

(Also, @Serp: I'm going to miss you so much when you go back to Australia :smallfrown:)

(Also, @Serp: I'm going to miss you so much when you go back to Australia :smallfrown:)You too! :smallfrown: The hugs alone would be enough for that: I don't think all my friends at home combined are as huggy as you, and then there's all the other Playgrounders... We're not a very cuddly bunch back home <.<
Also I haven't seen nearly as many musicals there as I have here...
