Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hi, Will!

I'm looking for my first post. Or my first as Zenkitty, anyway. Is there an easier way than hunting through archived threads? My memory is so bad, I don't recall exactly when I did anything.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Hands up regular posters married to lurkers? (Me!) I wonder how many people we have registered and lurking just to keep up with what the hell their SOs are talking about...

My husband doesn't lurk, but he followed ita's SPN Tumblr before he knew I knew her. And he knows Sarah, and I think a few of you are friends with him on FB.

And I talk about y'all a lot, so he might as well lurk. I told him I was down with it, but I think he thinks I need my Internet friends, like he has a group of Internet friends I know vaguely. (They broke off from OK Cupid after everyone there got married, etc.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yeah, Tim doesn't lurk, but he's gotten a sense of who's who (and has gotten to meet traveling Buffistas and met a bunch in SF twice before). And if he has some weird problem he can't solve or question he can't answer, he's apt to say "Ask the Buffistas!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

DH registered but decided to leave b.org mostly to me - like Strix's husband he had his own online places and felt like I should have one of my own. A chatroom of one's own? Something like that.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Not a spouse, but K-Bug know of most of y'all, either through meeting you or me talking about my invisible friends.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

TCG has no interest in being on a computer when he's not a work. So, I'm fairly certain he doesn't lurk, but he has met quite a few buffistas, and I sometimes tell him what is going on here.

Because books.

Stephen has never been on the board unless I'm making him look at something, but he knows who pretty much everybody is.

A chatroom of one's own seems like a good thing to me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think DH once 'fessed up to creating an account here, but he doesn't actually lurk much.
