I forgot you were so short.

:P

Also, you're so pretty in your dress!

Dev, I can't BELIEVE you can't remember I'm that short!!!! I'm five feet! :P

It's amazing how classy a wedding can look when not surrounded by life sized, out of shape action figures. Congratualtions.

Horrix - i do hope you are being nice :P

I think horrid was referring to this:

Oh yeah sorry Prala should have linked. Your wedding looked spectacular and I'm with Devin on the stunningness of you in your dress.

Hi, prala. We don't "know" each other (yet), but I just wanted to say that those are really beautiful pictures. Short brides = cute brides.

Now I'm going to go look at my wedding album...

I knew a bride that short once. She was on top of a cake.

Funny wedding story:

*ahem*

When DaveB and I were leaving our reception, we were sidetracked by someone that we have since taken to calling either "the rat woman" or "the lady from the inbred convention." I was still in my wedding dress, Dave was still in his tux. She tugs on the skirt of my dress and says, "Hey, are you the bride?" I look down at my (big, white) wedding gown and say "yes." She turns to Dave and asks if he's the groom. Because he's Dave, he says no and lets her apologize (?) for a moment before saying that he is, in fact, the groom. She makes with her congratulations for a while and we thank her. As we're walking away, she calls after us, "Wow, you two are both really short!"

I heard she then crashed our reception and humped our DJ on the dance floor. Woo.

Last wedding I went to the bridesmaid was the brides ex boyfriend post sex change, and the celebrant kept losing track of where she was so the grrom had to tell her the vows so she could then tell him the vows. It was very strange.

That's an awesome story, Miss Zooey, and further proof that DaveB is a man after my own heart. "No." Haha, such brevity in the face of an obviously malicious character.

Oh, and hello prala. Nice to finally meet Hello Kitty's biggest fan.

You made a beautiful bride, Miss Prala.

I love how all the females instinctively flatter each other, and the males hide their insecurity with moderately insulting humour.

Seriously, prala, you look good. And I'm sorry Dorothy and the Tin Man et al. couldn't make it back for your wedding.

Try spending time with most women in the real world. They say nice things to your face. Then they turn into pure evil once you're not within earshot.

Prala, you look lovely in your wedding dress. Kudos and congrats.

I really love women. Seriously. This isn't meant as a pass at anyone, just saying, I really love women, and I am fascinated by the idea of all the every day average human beings being totally entertained by each other based solely on their sex. Isn't it awesome?!

*gasp*!!!

who told you!?!?!?

Congrats, Prala. Thanks for checking in. Now I'm off the the loo for a ceremonial offering.

Great pics, too. Beautiful dress, beautiful bride. Mr. Prala is lucky.

I don't feel like opening a new topic for this, but I wanted to get some opinions from my fellow females.

There's this guy, a casual friend, who is cool and I like to hang out with. Lately, though, he's been sending out signals that he wants to be more than friends. I catch him looking at me, he hugs/grabs my hands for way too long, etc. Anyway, the last time we were hanging out at the bar, he grabbed my hand and announced that he had a crush on me.

I told him (in a nutshell) I was flattered, but not really looking to move our relationship to that level, so thanks, but no thanks. He once again grabbed my hand and said, "I can wait for you to come around." I had to tell him to let go of my hand (politely, of course) and the rest of the evening was okay, but a little awkward.

He's text messaged me and emailed me about getting together and doing something.

Now, I enjoy his company, but I don't want him to "wait until I come around". Would it be for the best if I just ended the friendship? For as much as he's a cool guy, I don't want to do anything that would be considered leading him on in the "my crush might be reciprocated" department.

Suggestions? Comments?

Appreciated.

You're gonna have to tell him as straight out as possible that you don't want to ever be friends with him like that. Insult him if need be, but "I can wait for you to come around" is a very creepy thing to say*. I'd end the friendship, avoid him, tell him flat out why and hopefully, maybe, he won't be such a creep to the next girl he meets.

*Unless you're Peter Venkman, inspecting Dana Barrett's apartment. Then it's charming.

Uh, we coulda settled this shit on IM, SS.

Since it's bound to happen, let me just say Diva is a dumb bitch.

Yeah. I guess I should just shoot him an email and let him know. It's kinder, I suppose, even though it doesn't feel like it at this moment.

Damn it, and here I thought I'd generalized enough so it wouldn't get out, but would work on a more subconscious level. I should've known you'd see right through it. By the way, you still owe me $30 from the bar tab that night...

You'll never see that money. Consider it public shaming tax.

Send him a MS Paint picture representing how you feel and see if he can guess it correctly.

You can send me weekly installments of creepy mixed cds, instead. Consider it a "not letting go of a girl's hand in a timely manner" penalty.

Can I commission one from you? I'll send you the creepy mixed cds Phil! sends to me as payment...

CHUD! A triangle of sex, intrigue, and, ultimately, lonliness!

Date him anyways; repress your feelings to make him happy. Then when you're out with friends and he's doing some terrible annoying thing that you hate, bring it up and make everyone uncomfortable. Have a little petty squabble at the table and continue in this fashion for the rest of the night. Everyone loves friends like these, why deprive the people you know of this joy? What kind of a selfish prick are you?

I hear that David Lynch is actually planning to base his next movie on these boards...

Hmmm, I was under the impression that I should repress my feelings, insinuate myself firmly into his life and then give him the old "it's not you, it's me" speech. Have I been doing it wrong all these years?

Christ, and I thought Inland Empire was a boring, confusing, self-repeating loop of despair.

Hey, don't you need to be packing or something? Isn't tomorrow the big day?

I packed everything. Now I have nothing to do but talk to you summer smile. Talk, and wait for you to come around. And you will come around.

Wear a snazzy jumpsuit and toast a Stay-Puft man for me, and maybe it'll be sooner rather than later.

Also, nice creepy tone and cadence. I'll give it an 8.5/10.

I'd like to cross your streams.

Are you the keymaster?

No, he's Dana. I'm Zool.

Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

Hollow out a honeydew and put a terror dog pup in it. Then act all surprised when it hatches. I hear that's supposed to be romantic.

Does that mean I'm Louis?

Hey guys, I've got some real smoked salmon from Nova Scotia, Canada...

Dammit, 'tron, it only works if it's unexpected!

I think I fucked up the thread when the pressure of being Peter Venkman, Greatest Movie Character Ever became too much and I just quoted my favorite line from the movie instead.

The pressure would get to anyone. You lasted a lot longer than most men would dare even try... I'd like to think that Mr. Murray is somewhere, driving around on a golf cart, having a drink in your honor.

In terms of Louis quotes, I'm pretty partial to "Okay, who brought the dog?", but that is based on delivery alone.

Can we turn this thread into "Ghost Busters Quotes We Like"?

Egon: I feel like the floor of a taxi cab.

I love that they gave Egon somewhat of a sense of humor. And I love that Venkman gave Egon a Baby Ruth.

I'm starting to feel like the coder who won't stop talking about computers, especially since we're in lady territory.

Nonsense. Ghost Busters is an everyone game. I think even furry creatures from Dimension X love the Ghostbusters.

With your blessing, this is possibly the best exchange in the film.

Stantz: Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dickless here.
Peck: They caused an explosion!
Mayor: Is this true?
Venkman: Yes it's true.
Venkman: This man has no dick.

I like how you gave each sentence it's own "Venkman:".

You can't pick one because it's hard to say that any of them AREN'T, but the Slor line kills me. It's so fucking great and insane and in character to boot.

To get back on track I wanna give a special shout-out to Belethedheliel, who has been a mentor of sorts for me over the years. She's the best older online horse doctor friend who sends you phallic dog toys money can buy.
