Sorry Billiam, it's over now I think. I've ran out of steam like an impotent locomotive.
Quote: Nat Wicks @ December 14 2011, 3:02 PM GMTIf I don't think there is a clique, does that mean I'm part of it? I've always wanted to be popular.
Of course, and you're one of the most popular people on here.

I read that as IMPORTANT locomotive...
which you are my dear.
Woah, what?

I was going to be sarcastic about how much that means to me. But then I realised the sad truth.

Ah well, there's nothing wrong with that, Nat the Tank Engine.
Did you f**k her then?
Am I too early?
I think we've decided that he's gay. So you're just in time!
Interesting discussion here guys.
Maybe we should all meet up on Friday* and just *see* for ourselves whether we're weird or not.
*Another alternative "official" meet will happen in March.
What if we are? 
I'm sure you'll fit in fine then.

Im sure no-one on here is weird. Or if they are, they'd be good enough at hiding it that it'd go undetected.

I would be, but I can't afford it.

Are you coming for drinks on Fri?
Quote: TopBanana @ December 14 2011, 10:14 AM GMTI used to work with a guy who I'd never met - i.e. we had to be in regular email contact. He was fecking hilarious in his emails, yet when we met he hardly said anything and was as quiet as a mouse.
That's because he was an introvert. Introverted people don't get much energy from social interaction. Your friend's 'hilarious' personality was still there in the flesh, it's just that social interaction doesn't bring it out.
Most people have introverted aspects of their personality but only a small percentage of the population is primarily introverted - it's nothing to do with 'being shy' or lacking confidence - there is no fear, just a desire to withdraw from group interaction.
I can think of a couple of very regular BCG posters who are like this, very talkie online but silent in person. The mistake that some people make is that there is nothing going on inside - introverted people are no less aware or 'present', just non participatory. They're usually thinking why doesn't that extroverted person shut-the-f**k-up, while the extrovert is thinking: (about the introvert) Is this person braindead?
