Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I still do the waffle thing even with non-famous people. Third party: "So, how do you know X?" Me: "Well... um..." X, often: "FROM THE INTERNET!!" Me: "Well, yeah."
I don't think I want to go out with George, but I still want to take him home and make him cocoa.
I am so tired right now I can barely hold up my head. Good thing I have no class tonight.
friend of a friend is my general answer when I don't wanna say internet.

With my friends who know about the crazy internet people, I say, "she's a crazy internet person." With other friends I'll just say something like, "Oh we go way back..." Or I'd say, "Jesse is a friend of msbelle." and leave them to figure that out.
Stephanie, you done driving yet?
I think everyone should answer the where questions with "the imaginary people in the box that talk to me."
That way, I can laugh and laugh at the looks on the questioners' faces.
In general, I cop to the internet. But I'm doing it with a "You wanna make something of it, huh????" look in my eye. And I often segue into the "Safe Arbor from Ann Arbor" story with Allyson and dare them to make light of the medium.
Nathan didn't need all that.
Where was this Allyson/msbelle discussion of the premiere?

Yeah, friend-of-a-friend is definitely the go-to answer.
Back this spring when I was in Houston, my bosses thought it was the weirdest thing that I was gonna go meet someone in person that I had met online.
I kinda wanted to say, "Yeah, it was kinda' werid, the first time I did that fourteen years ago...."
Why people gotta ask that question?
Tim says I'm a friend he met through work. Which is kinda true, if you squint and spin around really fast.
Thanks, ita!
Yes, I'm home, finally. We got home Saturday night. I've been trying to make some progress on teh giant pile of crap in my house since we unloaded the car. I'm making slow progress - Ellie is not helping since apparently she does not nap now that we are home.

Yeah. You were a 'customer representative,' or something.
