Seriously I agree with Mr.Horse...this thread has gone way OT...the original topic that TiggerChic put up was a very good topic - would be good to see some more responses to it

OK well i can understand the too much posting thread being closed, but seriosuly, why the hell would this one be closed down. Naturally its gonna go off topic, but so what, does that really matter.??? People mention something they talk about, and then ideas run from there. Its a fun/jokey type of thread, ppl are having fun with it, leave it alone.
Tho the mood of the thread has been somewhat killed now anyway because some people (especially new bluelighters) who may have posted, probably wont in fear of posting off topic.
So Boo and Hiss
To the Seriousness.
Off Topic Bullshit is Fun Sometimes.
Blah Blah Blah.

Cause life aint nothing but a good groove
A good mix tape to put you in the right mood

.....ohhhhh MorpheusDaq I did say sorry for having that last bit of bourbon
Seriously though, do you suggest we let all threads run wild - I think you have to draw the line somewhere and pull a thread back into line. As I stated before. I think the topic that TiggerChic started was very interesting, but it's abit disapointing going into this thread and finding barely anything that relates to it. I'm not suggesting closing the thread at all, just for it to be relevant to it's original intention.
Bluelight Social is full of threads that cover all sorts of craziness and off topic mayhem. Is this forum not an option?

Ok bringing the thread back on topic... (sorta
)
So do you ever ask non-bluelighters whether they test their pills?? I have. The most common response is "do WHAT???" Yet the other night (well about 8 weeks ago now...) I went to the bathroom at SSU (I think for the BEXTA night) and plastered on the mirrors were a couple of inserts for the E-tester... Now what a fantastic idea... The times i went in there, there were always a couple of people reading it...I think it's great to advertise sensible drug use...
So what are other peoples thoughts on non-BLers testing their wares??
TC
ps - Yes - Empire Strikes Back is definitely the best...
And what about Agent 86 - Maxwell Smart in Get Smart... heheheh - love that show!!

Nods TC! The testing question usually comes somewhere after "What did you have? ahhhh what are they like? Did you test them with a tester? A tester..." etc and show them if I have it handy and explain
Then open the bag...
"All these bottles you ask? Multi vit etc and 5HTP."
enter the 5HTP convo
Then
"That spray? ... ahh.. its called Medic"
etc etc etc
ahhaha talking to people when you are all E'ing is fantastic... especially with an ssu crowd which are friendly enough to begin with.

Mods..
This thread isnt off topic.. we are just demonstarting what can happen when you get talking to someone at a party! If you can honestly tell me that you've never gotten "off topic" before when talking to a "stranger" before or after eating drugs.. then close this thread.
and so, seeing as though I am certain enough that i'm correct that people get "off topic" whilst talking to "strangers" at a party, technically, this thread is not "off topic" either.
Also, technically BlueLighters other than yourself are a lot of the time "strangers" themselves and so this thread is, in fact, me talking to "strangers".

The following is an example of how I like to meet new people when out and about as well as the bit about kiddie shows. Fully - on topic, in character and with examples. Just thank your lucky stars I can't draw or there would have been pics too.
I generally sit down in front of someone (or land in the middle of their table as the case may be), offer them a hand to shake (usually my own), say something like "Hi I'm ...* What's your name" wait barely long enough for a reply, then start with the info dump.
As a child, my TV habits involved the ABC from after Play School through to 7 o'clock. As a uni student, I was in to Play School. Now I struggle with Play Dough.
I just found out that I also struggle with Notes servers on a monday night. Bwahaha corruption is rife within this office - pun fully intended.
Pill, I still believe that Gadget was Penny's twin brother and suffered from that aging disease. Hence** he was actually quite a performer for an 8 year old or however old they were. I like Claw as the father now though. It fits well with the whole "never forgiven his son for taking his wife" thang due to the mother (Ms. Claw?) dying during child birth - (Well YOU crank out a baby with 80 foot arms and legs and a helicopter on its head and see how long you last.)
Fully.
Ms Claw (let's call her Gladys) is in labour. All of a sudden, there's a noise not unlike that made by a helicopter erupting from your stomach. Thus we have Gadget.
Now it's hard to believe that Penny would actually have room in da womb to develop along side Gadget and his add-ons, unless she was actually INSIDE the helicopter***. This is paralleled by the series script where we see Penny controlling Gadget by way of her dog Brain, who is in fact a pan dimensional being related to Douglas Adam's mice****.
So Claw, who was in the midwifery at the time now has a bit of resentment towards his children, not to mention a problem with relating to women. Later on, he starts dating Gadget's boss as a way to get close to then kill his kids. I'm thinking a look not unlike Saddam Hussein and Satan in the South Park movie, only with Claws cat as well. I keep thinking the cat was called Nero, but that was from that other legendary piece of 20th century art, Danger Mouse. Eventually, the family tension builds to exploding point. In an effort to go to ground, his children revert to their mother's maiden name which also explains the different surname bit.
As a theory, I know it's a bit rough around the edges, I know but I reckon I'm onto something.
And so it goes, only with more tangents and fewer breaths.
Anyhoo, I gotta find out what this Notes box has got against me, show it what-for, go home, get ripped, wash & dry some clothes, pack a case, get back to work and make sure the fix can handle regular traffic, open up a can of whoop-ass on it if it can't, then get to the aiport in 12 hours. I've had 4 hours sleep since saturday morning and haven't looked like coming down yet.
(I'm opening the book at 5 to 4 against)
S.
* I don't really tell them my name is "Dots Star" but you get the point.
** Cop that. "Hence."
*** So provided that Gadget and his copter are in fact the same entity, he is Penny's brother AND mother, showing that 1) you don't necessarily have to keep it in the family to keep it in the family and 2) the concepts portrayed to us in "Junior" weren't so unlikely afterall.

The scene - Chemistry 4, everyone off their faces. The character - bare-footed hippy chick with floppy hat, Bugs Bunny teeth and disconcerting, smile-less stare. Comes up to me, taps me on the shoulder, and very seriously tells me (while pointing at her feet) - "These aren't shoes - these are my feet." After getting a nod from me, goes off and does the same to everyone in the room. ????

The Jetsons
Vicky the Viking
The Snorks (they were a trip).
For now.

i don't have a problem getting any conversation going, what i'd like to know is how do i stop talking to strangers. i sometimes feel a bit sorry for some poor dude i've never met before getting the not-so-abridged history of my life at a million miles an hour.
how do people go about ending a conversation with a complete stranger that doesn't just leave loose ends everywhere, and allows for further discussions if the two of you desire.

Good question Pink... How do you stop a conversation with someone you only just met...
What i tend to do is just give them a hug and go off and dance - i am usually pretty scattered anyway, so i think they understand (probably glad to be rid of me...) - Its usually pretty easy when there is a chill out room that is different to the dance floor. Its just funny when you bump into them later in the night and sometimes you can get an akwardness about you - hmmm...
Well hope to chat to too many peeps this weekend...
