dawg 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Hello Everyone, I'm dawg!! I thought I'd post this to introduce myself because I never gave you fair warning about me. About me: I'm an Englishman living in an Idahoan world. It does things to ya. I'm a geek. That does things to ya as well. My sense of humor is satirical, sarcastic and very very very very dry. I am frequently perceived as dry, abrasive, condescending, mean, judg(e)mental, calous, and heartless. Despite evidence to the contrary, there is a slight pulse deep within this stoney heart and I do actually care about people in pain. I rarely say the right thing. I frequently make it worse after trying to do a "cover your ass" from saying the wrong thing. If you give me seventeen benefits of the doubts, you might actually start to 'get' me. I am insanely protective of my wife and will leap to her defense whether she needs my help or not. I love a good discussion or debate. I'm less fond of arguments and fights. I think that about covers it. Wait... I left out zealous and opinionated. I make a sack full of pittbulls look sane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jachut 487 Posted February 16, 2006 Dawg I get the feeling you'd be an absolute hoot in real life. Written words are harder to interpret. I always get the feeling you're tongue in cheek and have a giggle, but I think its hard for people to read the tone of what you've said. Posting that was a good idea, I really hope that clears the air for a lot of people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevilMayKare 1 Posted February 16, 2006 I'm an Englishman... Well, that explains a lot...especially the spelling thing. Serioulsy, I've been reading a lot of Bryce Courtenay lately (a WONDERFUL Austrailian writer) and there are a few spellings used regularly that kinda throw me (like "practise"). I make a sack full of pittbulls look sane. Yeah, got that. (lol) And whatever thread it was where you posted that my post was silly... you were absolutely right.

PamRN 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Welcome Dawg! I've noticed many of the above descriptions in some of your posts... you are definitely entertaining! (Entertainment being one of the main reasons I read here, after giving and receiving support). Good luck to you in your weight loss by association! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawg 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Dawg I get the feeling you'd be an absolute hoot in real life. Written words are harder to interpret. I always get the feeling you're tongue in cheek and have a giggle, but I think its hard for people to read the tone of what you've said. Posting that was a good idea, I really hope that clears the air for a lot of people. I am indeed mostly 'tongue in cheek'. Not very good at being politically correct either As for the 'hoot' in real life. I'm actually even more of a miserable bastard. I enjoy it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
