A lot of people can do it in kilos and that's probably more popular, but I find stones easier. When Americans tell me a person's weight, I have to mentally divide it by 14 to get an idea of what they mean. I find imperial measurements much easier to visualise, even though I know metric is a lot simpler. I'm not much good with kilometres either. When I was a child, my mother told me that the distance to our church was a mile, and that's the yardstick I've used ever since. Derek is by far the most popular RL name for all Goreans, especially the kajagoogoos, but to be fair, a decent number of them are called Clive or Humphrey. Their Glorious Leader thinks Doreen and Beverley are sexy names, so actually it's an improvement. I live in hope that one day, one of them really will invent a truly By The Book sim with demonstrably reduced gravity as it's supposed to be, so they all bounce around like crap space hoppers while suffering from muscle wastage and nausea. Which, ironically, is what they spend their RL time doing. lol OK, so we may not agree on much, but we definitely have the same opinion of Gor. That's a start 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you... even leave a review anyways? There's like.. no survery or form for 'reviews'. What I'm getting at is that I can't state a simple dislike or unpopular opinion and WHY I dislike it when it was asked because its supposed 'smearing'. Whatever, I'm just not gonna reply to you anymore cause its a hassle, don't really care what people think of my opinion on something, and its my choice whether i like something or not.

I frequent another forum that's very well known in Britain (wave if you see me but I name change frequently) and the unpopular opinion threads always go badly and get deleted. This is waaaay better than what I'm used to. Interesting feedback... Upon thinking further I imagine many feel like others don't really 'get them'...that we all have unpopular opinions. I mean it doesn't feel good to remember how one is at odds with the rest of the world...and so would create a chaotic thread... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem, on that forum at least, is that the person who starts it always thinks it's going to be funny or good natured, and to some extent it usually is, but it's never long before people start posting really awful stuff, apparently without any irony. I don't think I've ever seen an unpopular opinion thread over there reach its natural life span, they always seem to get zapped. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really think my objection is to your opinion? No, I object to you using the Official LL forum to smear someone who is not here to defend herself. A pro tip: NEVER BUY ANYTHING WITHOUT TRYING THE DEMO. If you do, it’s on you. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, we differ on opinions sometimes but I actually quite like you and think you would be an utterly fascinating person to sit with and just talk about life and experiences.

Between it and the impeachment trial on CNN playing in the background I feel like I'm having some sort of major dissociative episode... Actually, this has been the most amusing thread I've seen in a while. I'm reading every post, handing out reputation points like they're going out of style. Any thread with a lot of posts will have some sniping, just makes it quicker to skip those over and move on to something more fun. Unless you have a serious masochistic streak, take my advice and skip the trial, especially if watching on CNN or MSNBC (or Fox). The Dems will rage that about how "unfair" the rules are and they'll spout righteous indignation about Orange Man Bad, while the Republicans, short of Jesus himself personally testifying against Trump (assume the Republicans would let even Him testify) will vote to acquit. Less than a handful of Dems or Republicans will break with their party lines, and then only because they think it will help save their reelections in November. Meanwhile, the media talking suits will throw in their partisan commentary. No matter what you think about His Trumpness, watching this traveshammockery will only make you hate the other side more. At least switch to CSpan and skip the shills who shill. Or, go do something useful. Like run outside and use water colors to paint your grass green. That would be more useful than watching what's going on in Congress. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolya Ugajin Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Just going to toss this in here. The next time I see an announcement about something going on at the Cartel hangout (and I'm available), I'm going to swing by and attend on my current main avi. The first person who IM's me with "You're Tolya!" will win a cash prize of 1,000L. /me rubs his hands in glee at the thought of every poor sap who stumbles into the hangout being assailed with "YOU'RE TOLYA!" IM's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
