Those eyes are distinctly disturbing.

I believe it is to show that you are currently online. Either that or 'they' are after my Maltesers.

No, they eyes indicate that the researcher who made that posting is currently online - see the front page for more details about DNA 1.2

Okay now, Ladies, you know it's not fair to double-team a guy in here. winkeye

Simulposting will only be handled by a non-multi-tasking brain in a cereal manner. [I know the SP's different, I just didn't want y'all to think I was some bizarre stocking-crazed stalker...or something equally odd.] Anyway, thanks for letting me know I missed some important info up front and make some time to read it. Really. Quite soon. Shortly, I'm sure. Unless either of you just wants to regail me with your expertise in all things H2G2...

See, I did listen to what my Mum told me about playing around with potentially dangerous weapons...

I would have drawn them some nice friendly eyes if they'd asked. But no, we have to put up with the eyes Jim quickly drew to test the idea cross .

[hands Amy the ant the standard Government Complaint Form, to be filled out in quintriplicate, mashed with a raised seal from the Undersecretary of Undergarments, the Deputy of Department Stores, and the Commissioner of Ommissions (respectively), then posted in sequence the Board of Directors of any major corporation, an the Chieftain of an obscure tribe in Zimbabwe, the local Constable's Office, and finally to your Mum for spelling and grammatical correctness]

Here ya go, Kid, have fun...

I can't shake the feeling that Caerwyn and B3 can see me right now. bigeyes back at ya.

Hello, B3, and welcome. Avoid the crisper drawer in the fridge, and the linen closet might not be safe either.

I'm off to read the masque thread.

Lady Sol! Howdy! I just know of MR from the postings here at Lil's and by laughing my a** off at the masque...

I anticipate I may actually become good friends with many of you as the days go on...

Welcome, B3! biggrin

Great intro, MR.

Joanna - I'm afraid to look at my list of old conversations. I could spend days there.

Greetings to Typolifi and B3!

The best thing about the masque is the way it's drawn some of the lurkers out. I just love that.

And those disembodied eyeballs creep me out.

*emerging from her apartments and flopping down on a sofa*

Nostalgia-tripping, Joanne? Reading old entries is worse than cleaning out a closet.

Welcome B3! I see you're an enthusiastic post-er -- let's see how you handle backlog, BWA-HA-HA-HAAAAA! Seriously, what time zone are you in?

I don't like the eyes, myself. What's the point of knowing whether a researcher is online anyway? Don't we presume the presence of everyone in this thread as part of our virtual-reality-construct? It seems to me a philosophical confusion is being perpetrated. I speak to everyone in present tense as if they are here, unless they explicitly head off to another part of the atelier or fly out the window or something.

Matina, would you bake some mbougatses, please? Our new salonistas haven't had the pleasure of your baking before.
*Matina brings Lil a cup of tea and whispers in her ear. Lil listens, thinks a moment, and nods*

*sipping tea* Looks like we're having a potluck Thanksgiving banquet. Matina says she'll do the turkey/gravy/stuffing and the setting up, but she wants a half-day off to go somewhere with Ampton. So she suggests that all the salonistas should bring dishes, what with so many of us liking to cook anyway.

B3 and Typolifi, let me make some proper introductions. Matina is our Goddess of the kitchen, chief maidbot, and entity for keeping the salon clean and well-refreshes. Chloe is a translucent maidbot-of-all-work, and you'll see her all about, if you can see her at all, I mean.

And Ampton is also a bot. Smallish, purple, has a head like a boombox. He works downstairs at CLI, chief factotum for Garius and Affi. He's their Igor, you could say.

B3 - Welcome, I'm sure you will have fun.

I agree that the eyes are just weird!!!!!!! Besides, if you really wanted to know who was online, you could just look at the Who's Online list.
