Oh, Specific VR member who shalt remain unnamed,
I thank you most humbly for your abundant and special brand of crazy. We celebrate your ramblings and treasure each delightfully incoherent rambling with which you bless us. It has been a while, dear crazy person, since we have had such a wealth of quotable gemstones.
I want to compose an Ode to you. It would express my gratitude to the Swiss for their expert crafting of your brain matter. Not the watch makers...we don't want those guys to touch our girl! It's the geniuses in your dairy labs that we lift high today.
I want to polish your tin foil pyramid hat. It should shine for you like a billion suns!
I want to tune your radio to prime static reception...the kind that has both white noise and a tiny harmonic pitch, for you deserve the best.
I want to help you pin lots and lots and lots and lots of cut out newspaper clippings to the walls of your den so that you can be surrounded by inspiration at all times.
Welcome, oh beautiful gold mine of textbite nuggets. You have awed me. I am not worthy.

I'm not asking why you're lying on your back, presumably naked, barely covering your breasts. I'm really not! I am fairly sure I understand most reasons why you'd want to photograph yourself in such a pose. What I am asking is why it has to be your avatar.
I'm glad you're young, cute, and feel sexy. But when you're in that pose and you comment on my journal or interact with me, it feels a little weird. (Please read that "a little weird" as I typed it. I'm not ranting or freaking out. I'm expressing commentary on mild weirdness.)
Just like in "the real world", online communities have developed a few social conventions. Typing all in caps is annoying and becomes the online equivalent of shouting. Might I also suggest that your choice in avatar and even your nick should reflect your voice online.
For instance... Let's say that I write a lyrical poem and someone named LabiaWhore comments that it is beautiful and means a lot to her. I look over at her avatar and she's standing in a bathroom mirror with her tongue out while she touches her nipples. MILD WEIRDNESS
I admit that it's situational and relative for me, though, so I own part of the disconnect. If I look over and see a badger lying on its back or a duck swimming in a toilet, I don't seem to have any trouble with the voice. Hmmm...go figure.

Defining Morri:
Verb:
Doing something to the nth degree.
"I don't just sin, I Morrigon!"
Noun:
1. A do-over for nice people.
Because I'm a reasonably good person, I sometimes get walked on when I'm too nice. I often think, I'd like a do-over, like golfers who get a Mulligan. Next time someone says, "Why did you do that?! Why wasn't I informed?!" and I automatically respond with apologies, I will ask for a do-over. A Morrigon. - 'I'm sorry, why wasn't I informed that you're a douche?!'
2. Unexpected hyjinx.
You just pulled a Morrigon! I'm watching you.
Adjective:
1. Attention to detail
"The lighting in that picture is damn near Morrigon."
2. Frolicsome
"The mime clad only in multi-color paint, ear phones, and a tarantula was confused at his arrest in Central Park. As he was dragged away, he feverishly gestured something that looked like teeth biting a derriere. Another victim of Morrigon-walking."
Adverb:
Obvious to anyone with a pulse, you moron.
"AHAHAHAHA! That was so wrong, it was Morri wrong" or "I don't know why you're crying, dude; I was Morri clear."

Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE colloquial sayings? I really do. My ex's family are from Mississippi and they have some really good ones like, when you have to do something over again because it's not quite good enough the first time, they might say:
"You better hoe that row again." Or, even better, "You better lick that calf again." (Some people remember where they were when John F. Kennedy was shot. I remember where I was when someone first suggested to me that I lick the calf again.)
My friends in Kentucky love bathroom humor, kind of an 8th grade mentality that never went away. They have many ways to describe the several processes that happen in that most important of rooms. Here is a charming example: "I gotta pee like a cow on a flat rock."
Another fun one from my ex-in-laws describes that sensitive bit of information that you sometimes have to share with a friend or family member whose pants have tucked up into their hindmost crevice. If you find yourself in that delicate situation, try something like this, "Hey! Your goat's in the garden!"
I broke Requiem the other day with my nice Southern euphemism for female wankery, "dialing the pink telephone."
I got thinking of this today when one of my volunteers was being fitted for a dress to be altered by another volunteer. Desiring to check the length (she's very tall), she bent over and asked, "Is my good china showing?" I still can't quite make it through that one without snorting.

Well, now I feel like an ass. Sorry. I certainly wasn't trying to do anything sinister.

I like the chatty new Daire. I see his journal comments everywhere I go now. He's funny, too! I like him better than scary Old Daire.

Stab is a huge sic-fi buff. Together, we've made our way through Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon5, much Star Trek, associated movies, the new Caprica series, and lately, the Stargate Atlantis series. Have you guys watched this? The enemy are the Wraith, life sucking vampire aliens. Yes, please!
This hobby goes very well with our beer exploration hobby, too. By the way, tried the Magic Hat #9 and loved it! Thanks for the tip.

Nooooooooooooo...you evil, evil rat! She must stay and be nurtured. I have been too long between crazies. I need this one. PLEASE let me keep her, George! I will name her George, and I will hug her, and pet her, and squeeze her, George.

Ok ok You can keep the member. But this foil hat is starting to get hot, and the metal underwear to keep the butt probe from happening is itching and pinching.
But if you must... I just can't say no to you.
;)
