I see it took somebody from the UK to spot that :)

Oh I got it, I was just to busy gouging my eyes out with a rusty spoon. 

Coincidentally, I was doing the same...

I was too busy being upset that there's not enough eye-bleach in the world to unsee what I just saw.
Prayers that need no answer now, cause I'm tired of who I am
You were my greatest mistake, I fell in love with your sin
Your littlest sin.

I was too busy wondering how in the bloody hell he could think anyone would find that pose SEXY.  :o

He's kind of mesmerizing. His gaze is so... assured.

Yes.  And he's put together quite a collection of stimulating objets d'art to pose with.  I believe those small red and gold boxes contain the same brand of matches my in laws use to light their candles on Shabbat.

I was impressed when I saw the guitars but then on further inspection they are video game versions, the guy is just a poser.

It is a good advertisement for having some mental profiling of people before letting them buy guns, although I suspect these guns are either video game guns or water pistols. I think a couple of them are paintball.

So much good stuff here.  Thank you to everyone for very generous replies.

Although I will only reply to a couple of remarks here and there, know that I have read every word and appreciate it all.

...but I would like to say that, having followed your posts thus far, I don't think I've seen anything that has stood out as offensive or unusually (for HAF) combative.  Your posts have seemed, to me, fairly exacting in their civility...

Thank you!  I have really, really tried to be civil in every post, but I fear the vampire in me unsheathing his fangs...  I am glad that what I wrote was well received.

Below is my entire post, which you refer to. In bold is the reason why I wrote what I did about you being new. It was to give you the benefit of the doubt on being at a loss (or a disadvantage) on how to respond to members.

What's interesting to me is how, the first time I read your post, I felt like a schoolboy being sternly reprimanded.  Then when you reposted it and I looked at it again last night, I saw it in a completely positive manner.

See this place as your oasis with a shady palm tree and enjoy relaxing here.

I'm glad you were able to see it in the spirit it was intended. I should probably change my avatar one of these days so people realize there is an actual human being who isn't a total a-hole behind the posts.
