For the first time ever, indulge me, I'm curious to see if you've got anything that I need to hear!

Please say anything about me. How much you hate me, how much you love me, how much you can't stand me, how much more you want to spend time/talk with me. Whatever. Be brutally honest. Post this in your livejournal to find out what people think about you (if you really think your ego can stand up to it too).

I'll turn off IP logging for anonymous posters so you can have some fun/give me some possibly useful advice!

well on the plus side I think you're interesting and kind and intelligent. on the minus side you're a bit smug and immovable about general knowledge you have. I'm often surprised that you're body language isn't very confident in conversation. I think I'd want to spend more time with you if I felt that I had more in common with you, but I worry that we will run out of things to talk about. I'm glad that I know you now, and don't just think of you as that funny looking guy who does the quiz.

I'd certainly agree with smug, immovable I can't though. I'm very willing to change my views in the face of better learning/arguments, and I'm also very easily persuadable once you get past my initial bluster.

My body language betrays my lack of confidence around people that I don't know - I'm basically shy around new people, probably mainly due to a fear of causing offence, as I am very good at doing with my loud mouth and thoughtlessness.

As for us, yep I'm glad we know eachother and get on well - as for running out of stuff to talk about, that's possible, although if we were in a one-to-one situation, we'd have enough to gossip about just through mutual friends, never mind our own lives and opinions. Thanks for the feedback - it's much appreciated!

I'm trying to work on the smugness - I think I mainly try to counteract it by being very magnanimous when someone else shows their superiority to me, and I also often am interested in learning from such people, which I hope they appreciate above my childish showing off...

> once you get past my initial bluster

ah, see, I wouldn't get past that, which is why I think you're immovable. I'll try to remember that ;-)

I start strongly, but can fade very quickly as I often have very little to back up what I'm saying...

"you're body language"

*dies of grammar shame*

my excuse is that I shuffled that sentence around a bit before posting the comment, and it had been correct to start with.

*is still blushing*

*giggle* And to think I hadn't noticed! I feel your pain...

You seem like an interesting person I'd like to get to know better. But as you don't know me, that could be difficult....

Indeed! There's one way to get round that problem...

True...

But I'm shy...

I'm surprisingly approachable!

Really?

Hmmm... Maybe my shyness will recede for a while next time I see you...

Cool! I might seem aloof and put up a front, but that is just a front. If we have something interesting to chat about, then I usually relax pretty easily.

As you seem to be the King of General Knowledge, maybe finding an interesting topic of conversation wouldn't be that difficult?

Well I'm interested in all sorts of things certainly.

I can see that from your profile, and from what journal entries I can see...

I find the best discussions start off with one subject then take a whole different journey through allsorts, often finding a few soap-boxes to stand on in the middle...

Aye, although I'm not much of a soapbox stander, unless you manage to find one of the special issues which really gets to me :O)

I maybe should've phrased that differently. I find good discussions are had by people who are willing to argue their point of view and not necessarily bend to others's, but are willing to listen to them. Acquiescing to another's point of view without reason annoys me.

Oh I'm definitely willing to learn from other people, and I like a good strong discussion.

Then maybe I will swallow my shyness and approach you next time I see you...

Or even post without it being anonymous...

If nothing else, it'll be nice to know eachother better.

My journal was created for a specific purpose, and, as such, omits certain aspects of who I am, but enhances others. I'm happy to reveal it to you, as long as you understand it's not the whole picture.

Aye cool - it would be interesting.

(deleted comment)

Okay, although you may still have to point out who you are in real life...

So where do you see me about anyway? Is it at the quiz?

I REALLY like that you care about things. I like your journal because you often have something to say and you like discussing things and you seem to think about things. I don't like some things that I've heard/seen second-hand about you relationships-wise but that doesn't really affect me, so yeah. That's about all I think.

I think you can guess who I am now simply cos of the sheer number of times I typed 'things' in that post :/

Can't say I can actually, although now I'm going to be on the look out for people who use that word a lot on my friends list!

Thanks! Although I have to vaguely defend myself about relationships - I've been rather active in this area in the past it has to be said, but nowadays I'm just a flirt more than anything. It would actually be lovely to get into a relationship and to be comfortable and settled.

I think your a great person to be around. You like having fun when the opportunity strikes. And what is this obsession of the weather come from? Thankfully you got your tooth fixed, this would of been great fun if you'd become a weatherman on tv "and today it's raining teeth in the west!"
My advice for you is to keep on playing but be more controlling with your directions in life.
xx

Thanks! That's pretty much what I think too in that last sentence - I just need to get myself set in a job basically...

I'm sure you will in due time and hopefully in Edinburgh. Can't have our playfull fights if you ain't living here no more!
xx

:O)

I like your forearms, your sideburns and your smile. And the thread braclet you have.
I always enjoy talking to you. But i don't get to see you that often which is a shame. I don't really know you that well, but i would like to get to know you better :).

Ooh I'm intrigued now :OP

Well, I'm sure we'll speak in the future!

Without making your head swell, which knowing you it really wouldn't anyway, I think you are one of the nicest people I have ever known. Our conversation has been interesting (very), funny, sensitive (when you got the chance!!!) and fun. You'll know who I am if I say "Pigtails" and Frontier. Love this site Ian. Speak soon x

Aw so kind!

Look forward to our next conversation honey.... very interesting. Let you get on with being intelligent and busy. Definately need to talk soon. x

Grooveh :O)

Love you loads, only hate you sometimes these days :oP
You make me sadder than anyone else but still manage to make me so happy. You can always make me laugh and I wouldn't change you a bit. (Mind you that's because I've spent so long sorting you out I don't need to change you so much anymore:oP)

:O)

I wonder how good a snogger he is?

There's an easy way to find out *grin*

I would get into trouble!

boo :OP

I'm surprised you're not more vocal on MSN. You seem to give so few words there, but have verbal diarrhoea on your LiveJournal.

Go easy on those self-tests and other self-gratifying things... not only do you risk clogging your blog, you're also alienating anyone who's not an LJer. :(

And would it kill you to maybe mention how your UC team is going? I'm sure you enjoy the game... why not share it with the masses?
