"Everyone on this forum is just text on a screen to me." Thank you Guru Xeno - this is what I like about you. You are at least honest - and admit you are a cold-hearted, emotionless, distant, dead man basically, of dead beliefs, of inane platitudes - having sexual orgies in your mind with words, even your hard-ons while you are having sex with words might be just a word in your mind called "hard-on". It really reflects in your writing - everytime I read you it's astonishing, it's as if you are a zombie. And then equally hilarious is when I see someone like Share react to you - it's as if she actually had sex with you and you made her come. I'm always tempted to ask you and Share to take your orgies offline.
