Just a rant really but lately I've been getting alike 5 or 6 randoms on YIM and MSN with the first question of ASL....
Not only can these people not spell or form a complete sentence, they keep bugging me with ASL till I tell them to bugger off.
Now I know I could just hit the ignore button, but just for once I'd like one of em to hold a conversation or explane why they are attempting to talk to me!
Never mind the random gold farmers in WoW these days......*Gnaws on the bones of the last random to bug him*
ASL?
Age/Sex/Location
I... actually knew what it meant. I was just being a jackass, but I guess I came off looking like a dumbass XD
Never understood why people ask for location right off the bat.
The last time I logged into my IM accounts was two years ago. I got an a/s/l message when I forgot to uncheck the public directory option. They seemed pretty polite.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED :[
I'd tell them that I'm 64 years old, male, and living in the Neutral Zone.
See if that doesn't shut them up.

That's hot. Sex now?
I don't do vore though, k? :B
I've never got any hate/ASL/spam messages. I feel unloved. :cry
The first option I ever set on AIM was "invisible except to friends list"
That and never being logged on to AIM anyway means I've never recieved an "ASL".
The answer would be "Old enough/Not with you/English" (Age/Sex/Language(English, do you speak it, M***********?))
American Sign Language? :B
Avatar Sex Lingos?
I only ever got random IMs in ICQ. But then I got rid of that when I realized MSN Messenger and AIM existed.
Interestingly, I've been on the receiving end of a few of late. I wonder if there's a series of options missing from pidgin that the native windows apps have...
I should go drop that into the request bucket, I think.
Tapewolf...from what it sounds like is that someone got a hold of your address and added you to their contacts list, then proceeded to send you the ASL message just for kicks...
Lucky for me, I've never gotten any of those messages...though if I ever do get any of them, I'd go "You first" as a retort. That would be before I consider blocking them...
*looks around* Karl's on drugs again...
Appealing Slippery Libido?
...
No, really. How the hell do you manage to hand out your adress, even less attract these people? I like to believe that it is my general attitude and apparel that keeps them off my list.

Yeah, Paladin Sheppard's avatar (art by ZinaSquid, right?) looks an awful lot like TW's (art definitely by ZinaSquid). I had some trouble differentiating the two for a while.
Show them this:

...Or you could use the other scary ASL pic. D: Just search for ASL on Photobucket. It's a picture of a naked (You can't see nuthin' dirty...'cept scary man boobs :< ) fat guy.
...And that's unfair. :< Strangers haven't IMed me in like, years. Not countin' that one annoying thing that tells me I'm signed on in two locations when Trillian screws up on me. :< Blocking it won't make it go awaaaaaaay! *Whines*

Apparently I suck so hard at jokes, people can't even they're jokes.
This is indeed a personal problem, and I am looking into fixing it.
PS. Did you really have a hard time telling them apart? Cuz. Cuz that sucks. Sucks for me. :C

You kinda had me going until you posted the zinacat in a squid suit chibi pic. :C Of course, I only started to believe it when you kept at the joke past April 1st...

Really? Because I could have sworn I posted the Zina-in-a-squid-costume(which was SUPPOSED to imply it was all a joke, especially with the "Disregard that" title and all) around 1 AM of the 2nd.
Oop, 2:45 AM, my bad.

Nah. I'm just going to call you that for perpetuity forever.

Well, it was more that the art style was obviously the same, and they were both wolf incubi, so I thought it might have been a rotating avatar or a new incarnation or something. Then I read the username beside, and confusion left me.

Well, I don't usually read
when a post was made... or check DA daily... or stay up past 2am my time.
Or remember when, exactly, I thought something or other. From my brain's point of view, I've always thought what I currently think, unless I make an effort to think back about when my mind was changed, and until my mind changes and I think something else. This makes it really hard to remember what last week's lesson actually was in class.

*Pokes head back in thread* Oh errr what happened to my rant thread??

I am shame, shame and failure to make good on joining the picture secret santa (organized by teh ever talented Zina, come to think of it :P ) I don't go there becasue I flee from my pitiful failures. :B Also becasue I don't have enough time to properly appreciate all the awesome art therein.
I has never gotten the A/S/L question =3
and if i did...my reply would be undead/no thanks/your mind
:yeahthat You win a magical icecream taco for that one
Why thank you Zedd =3
