Mithalwen, you just couldn't help yourself could you? You'll find that everyone's different, and that there's only one way for a lady to discover the truth. Dare you?

Estel, you're right! You were able to put a face on my image of rimbaud and you got it spot on.

Meneltarmacil: You said you like to play with chemicals so how do we know if your hair hasn't been "bleached" or "peroxided" blond. You may just be dying your hair blond to fool all the BD's. Just kidding. So anyway I am assuming you're female for the fact that I know if I did my Gollum impression in front of my guy friends they'd all laugh at me and think I was weird. Maybe about 5'5''. And maybe you're blond????? Oh well I'm probably wrong. I always am in this thread.
I don't know why both you and Estel thought I was female, but I tell you now that I am male. My hair has always been a natural blond, and I have never dyed it in my life. And I am not one to fool around with chemicals, that honor is reserved for my lab partner in chemistry class (it's a miracle he hasn't burned his house to the ground). One thing's for certain, your last comment was correct.

The reason I did my Gollum impression in front of the entire camp was mostly because my cabin mates all know that I've always been good at doing weird impressions, as well as being "designated victim" for every weird game that people can come up with at these things.

EDIT: Ah, finally finished that painful resizing job to get my picture up as an avatar.

Ah, Meneltarmacil, I see you got tired of being mistaken for being female & having a hair color other than blonde & just went ahead & posted your pic as an avatar. Not a bad idea, but I can't bring myself to take the fun out of being guessed by doing that

Ah, I guess I didn't end up tweaking it that much after all. Great minds think alike...& so do ours!

Indeed. I was thinking he looked like an extra from the Muppets Christmas Carol (a human extra, of course). Retro cloaks, the way to go!


edit to add: rimbaud is (for the benefit of Estel) male. I guess every other Downer knew that except us!

Sorry Meneltarmacil my mistake. I'm really bad at guessing what people look like. I'm just not good at this thread at all.

Ah but then maybe she ceases to be a lady.....
Indeed I have a glib tongue that is liable to drop me in hot water.... so self awareness being a wonderful thing I will resist the temptation to say "I'm game if you are.."

Not only that. but I'll have you know my hair is actually exceptionally stylish. Gah and indeed meh. And if you knock me down to just under half-a-foot, and have me green and somewhat amphibious you'd be closer to the mark.

Pipe A common question...

...but sadly an uncommonly ambiguous reply! Funny how life turns out.

It takes style to get someone that wrong.

Mithalwen, no comment.
