Humor will not be tolerated!! -Portia

On the only other forum I've frequented as of late, my smiley face [ = has become synonymous with hatchet wielding psychopaths.

...

All right then.

Pet peeve of the day:

Anyone describing any sort of legislative process they find even remotely broad or aggressive as "the nuclear option." Not every forceful maneuver is on par with nuclear weaponry.

You guys, I'm taking the MCAT in exactly two weeks. Just in case anyone was wondering.

Good luck!

Good luck!! I took the MCAT in January.

I'm moving next door in two weeks.

I got a letter from Geico today. In case I wanted to improve my car insurance rates. But I'll never, ever, EVER use them. You know why?

They addressed it to:

Ms. Giovanni Schwartz
123 E. Main Street
Anytown, USA, 12345

Yep. Apparently I'm a girl now.

A hick/hillbilly I may be, yet tonight was the first time I've had cow testicles.

Not bad.

You know, we should have some box we can check that shows our gender or something. I mean, I'm pretty sure I remembered that Gio was a guy, but . . . sometimes I do get lost. And it is funny anytime someone new joins up and things bob is a guy. I guess that hasn't happened for a while though.

Maybe that's why I made my avatar look a bit like me.

I think the preferred term is "Rocky Mountain Oysters", if I'm not mistaken.

My hometown is home of the "World's Largest Rocky Mountain Oyster Feed". What a claim to fame.

This is why my location is "this girl is in Provo" rather than just "Provo" or something similar.

Guys, I just read through 181 posts.


I don't even know if I want to respond to anything.

Oh, but I try to make it clear I'm a girl by having girly avatars. cherry blossoms, Charlotte, Computer with flowers, etc. I guess the Campanile wasn't too feminine...

but it was awesome.

*sigh* My brain is on overload. first the week of the board, then a week of here...too much info. I'm scattered like whoa.

Wow. Brave soul. I wouldn't dare try to absorb that much information at once.

Really? Awesome! I thought you were getting a PhD in like astrophysics or something?

What can I do in my posts/avatar that will make the neophytes think I'm a woman?

On a side note, I do enjoy that through the nicknames of my 'nym, I am simultaneously the stars of Back to the Future. I should buy a Delorean.

You should buy a Delorean anyway.

Then put a picture of it as your avatar.

Other icon suggestions include...a rose, a big pink heart, a smiley face with eyelashes...

I dunno. I don't actually recommend any of them.

Yes I am. And I've decided that I don't want the sort of job I thought I wanted when I started my PhD in astrophysics, so I'm going to try to go to med school instead.

Wait… I was told that you were a bloke.

I suppose you faux-flirting with bismark on here isn't quite so creepy anymore? Unless you really are a bloke wanting people to think you are female...
