I think, re my last post, that if I described myself in one word, the word might well be: Dork.

I sometimes forget the basic dorkness of my nature for extended periods of time, but then, oh then, I find myself unreasonably excited about the prospect of gaming two days in a row, or I make bad qabalah jokes in bed ("That's not making it any more likely you'll get laid," quoth triadruid), or I name off all the Transformers toys I had when I was a kid, or other things like that. Then, my innate dorkiness shines like a beacon for all to see.

Ah, well. We all are what we are, and no more, I suppose.

I'm not in any way prepared to say that many of my friends are not, also, dorks. I think the thing that bothers me about is that while I have successfully managed to avoid many of the most obvious dork-factors out there in the world (Star Trek being a prime example), I still somehow have managed to be King of the Dorky People. It's in the blood, and it will out.

Also, I don't really have any problems in that area (that's a truly awful phrase, by the way), it's just that I recieved the Official Dorkiness Warning: Caution, Caution, you are getting close to the dork line. Do not cross the dork line, or there will be no sex. I imagine the exact location of that line varies somewhat from person to person, too. I imagine that somewhere in the world, there are magicians who, if I were in bed with them, would appreciate me more for the qabala jokes. I'm just not sleeping with them.

Since the frequency of you jumping about gleefully about gaming twice in two days, OR making kabbalah jokes in bed, are both mercifully low, I challenge any claim you have to the Throne of Dorkdom.

After all, you still bathe on a regular basis, DO get laid (either before or after the Hashem joke), on a not-infrequent basis, hold down any job you really care to, and own no box sets of TV-series DVDs, I believe.

Also, she doesn't drink nearly enough Mountain Dew.

I hate Mountain Dew. I mean, really, seriously.

Yeah, "ashes hauled." I prefer that to the F Bomb; it's more polite, and (more to the point) I'm at work.

Re: ashes hauled...?

[triadruid.livejournal.com]

Huh; I'm not sure I've ever heard that phrase before. Thanks for the info!

The first time I recall hearing it was in Creepshow, spoken by Adreinne Barbeau. I've heard it a couple of times since; it just strikes me as funny. Like the term 'boinking,' which strikes me as the way clowns reproduce.

Not supposed to own box sets of TV-series DVDs, huh? OOPS.

Re: ashes hauled...?

[malvito.livejournal.com]

I can relate. I didn't used to, and now I have (Hitchcock Presents Season 1, Kolchak: The Night Stalker, and Adventures of Superman Season 1) with plans to eventually get Star Trek, Babylon 5, and Outer Limits (the original).

Re: ashes hauled...?

I will claim the first few season of Buffy with plans for more. I also have plans for B5 and some DS9.

Heh, it was more the sum-total of factors, not just TV series season DVDs. We do own a couple of those, in fact (X-Files), but none of them, to my knowledge, "belong" to featherynscale

Re: ashes hauled...?

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

In fact, none of them belong to me. My DVD collection is pretty spare, compared to you two.

She just borrows them from other dorks.

Re: ashes hauled...?

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

Yep. Which reminds me, there are arrangements to be made with orcjohn for the Firefly, I think.

[gamera-spinning.livejournal.com]

And there is the entire "Promethea" comic book series available for your collective reading at youu leisure.

Did someone say Firefly?

Re: ashes hauled...?

[greektoomey.livejournal.com]

I've never heard this expression before today. What does it mean?
