Bajah had this to say about Matthew Broderick:
Two points.

Ex-girlfriend. Knew her in person. Was absolutely certain I loved her. Was prepared to marry her eventually. Thought I knew everything about her: what she liked, what she didn't like, what made her happy, what made her sad. She didn't like playing games with me. Hell, I couldn't talk to her for more than an hour before I just wanted to get off the phone. I could only enjoy spending time with her in person. She was so horribly boring otherwise. But I loved her. Then she dumped with an email and is dating a tattoo artist. Total opposite of what she was to me.

Then I met Tori. I've never actually seen Tori. Hell, I've never even heard her voice. But I can sit and just talk with her for hours on end and not even notice the time slip by. I can play games with her and she won't get bored. I can tell her anything and she won't think any less of me. I love Tori with every fiber of my being. My love for my ex is not even a fraction of what I feel for Tori. I don't care how she looks. I don't care how she sounds. If I meet her and find out she's really 3 foot tall and paraplegic, it wouldn't bother me. It's be weird, for sure, but it's not her looks that I love.

If you call that 'less rich and textured,' then... fuck, man. I have nothing to say to that.


So being together in person would add nothing to the relationship that's not already there?

Agreed Khy, this thread is quite funny. Bloodsage vs. everyone! Definitely worth some laughs.

Well, obviously, there would be. It'd be much different when he takes her out to dinner. He'd have to bring a real person instead of a laptop.

Plus it's easier to take her to the movies without having to convince the theater people he's just letting his online girlfriend watch with him, and not using his webcam to record the movie.

Duhhhhhhhhhhh.

The only thing it would add would be the ability to actually see when I make her smile or hear when I make her laugh.

But it wouldn't change how I feel in any way, shape, or form.

You could also say that I would be able to take her in my arms and hold her when she's sad or upset. But she knows how much I want to do just that and she does not complain. I may not be able to do it in person, but just the knowledge shared has much the same impact without the physical touch. It's not the same, but it certainly isn't different or less.

So no, it would NOT be different in person. Just more tangible.

Iteresting perspective.

Not sure, though, how "more tangible" translates to "no value added."

Except for that, you seem to have validated my point that being together adds a dimension.

One has to remember that "less" is a comparative term. It doesn't mean "bad." A Bentley is a lesser car than a Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. It's still a damned nice vehicle.

Assertion doesn't equal proof.

And it's been some time since you had a point other than your apparant dislike for me. Since you've not provided a shred of evidence for any of your accusations.

Traditionally, completely clueless people attempt this kind of mysterious bullshit and airy superiority when they're clearly unable to argue their point in the face of overwhelming opposition.

It's called posing.

You should put up or shut up, bitch.

"posts like that" referring to the fact you prefer to insult people rather then present yourself as the well mannered person you say you are. Really childish in my book.

Yarrr, little whippa-snappahs fightin' over little things like love! Ahh! In my day we didn't NEED love, gosh darnit! We walked to school 20 miles EACH WAY! Through the SEWERS, because the streets smelled WORSE. We had no "loooooooooveeeeeee" to comfort us. The only thing I kissed when I went to bed for 66 years was my PROSTITUTE. That's a real man's love, not this prissy froo froo "romantic" crap! *whacks Bloodsage with a cane* YOU! FETCH MY TEETH. THEY'RE SITTI--WHAT? YELLING? I'M NOT YE--WHAT? HEARING AID? I'M NOT D--WHAT? YOU WANT A BURGER WITH CH--YOU WAN...I TOLD YOU I'M NOT YELLING, YOU WANT TO SEE YELLING I'LL SHOW YOU YELLING, BOY. DON'T TALK BACK TO ME OR I'LL ATTACK YOU WITH MY SAGGY B--*coronary*

(I'm done now.)

I think making love to a hugeass machine like that would chafe.

Oh, and Bloodsage... I find ya funny, man, and sometimes I agree with you, but seriously... half the time when I read your posts it's almost like you're EGGING THE FLAMES ON. Not directly starting anything, but encouraging others to start it, so you can jump in.

Lighten up, man =/
