Edited on Sat Jan-10-04 09:26 PM by Sean Reynolds
How you type like this.

Why do you put spaces between each thought?

I find it funny.

Odd?

Yes!

That's my take on it.

I was doubting myself at the end when that arrow kept going up and up. Didn't know it was automatic :).

I need to losen up I was told. Leather pants or pluck my eyebrows? Advice needed ASAP.

you already know the answers to the questions, so you're looking for someone or something to tell you you're right.

I doubt anyone is looking for anyone to tell them anything, it's just a little bit of fun diversion. No deep meaning here.

I guess I am an old-fashion heterosexual, according to the "Gay-O-Meter".

FWIW, I am also one the most tolerant people that you'll ever meet.

Edited on Sat Jan-10-04 10:27 PM by ProudGerman
I'm too straight for these times it says. Maybe I need a gay roommate. Surely I'd absorb a little gayness from the constant proximity.

I'm thinking maybe it'd be a good idea if I watched Queer eye for the straight guy a few times.

32. I'd rather be my favorite footballer
Though something might be lost in the English to English translation. I think that's a UK site, and they probably mean what I call Soccer, and I took it to mean American football. Either way, I'd rather be my favorite "footballer" than meet him. Mostly because I have no clue what kind of person he is, and meeting a person like that would be nothing more than a handshake and maybe one or two words exchanged. Being that person, is a on a whole other level.

I'm disappointed that I'm not gay enough. In some cases I knew the "correct" answer but I had to answer truthfully. I don't own leather pants, that sort of thing.

Gosh. If you're straighter than me, you're really straight!

Before she was introduced to me, my wife thought I was gay -- because, she said, I was in good shape, well-dressed and thoroughly squared away!
