Well I've had worse, usually along the lines of:
Them :" Do you wanna F***"
Me : " No Thank you"
Them : " Why"

..........I mean where do you start ??????

Tia said...

I would suggest that :
" no thank you I have a headache"
would prevent you having to converse with the Moron again.......unless of course he has some virtual paracetamol.......

Honestly, do you have to be as nice as to demure with a headache? Wouldn't it be appropriate in those circumstacnes to let rip in a blue streak with a few ripe insults? Aunt Tia, please advise!

Eaton said...

Two things maybe:
Actually the conversation I had, and published here, was pretty much the virtual equivalent of paracetamol - numbing. And I'd suspect that the same could be expected from any other moron.
I'd be a bit careful with letting rip with a slew of ripe insults. You never know if that's not what he's looking for anyway in SL!

Dear Anonymous,

Well its like this.
This is the best opening line I have ever recieved:

" bites his lower lip as he looks across the room.... his eyes falling on a particularly gorgeous beauty...... licking his lips softly as he continues to watch you move through throughout the dancefloor... blushing as you look over to catch him staring..... "hiya sexy"

Personally I would rather save all my energy for this man rather than waste it on Moronman.
However if you want to rant and rave thats entirely a matter for you - I know who is gonna have the best time !!!!!!!!!!

Cheers
Tia

Eaton said...

Although I agree with Tia that the "bites his lower lip…." is a good opening line, I'm not sure that it is in all cases the best even if is well worded, visual and tantalizing and beguiling.
In my opinion a good opening line should be like a good title to a story or newspaper article. It should be unique to the person as the headline is unique to the article. The opening line to someone should be something you could only say to that specific person. That's why I feel well done profiles are so important (as we have written about here. I won’t say that the writer of those lines has used them before, but there is nothing in there to say he hasn’t. I’d be inclined to answer: “I bet you say that to all the girls”.
Secondly, and just as important, I think that most good opening lines should be, well, open. “Open” in what your intentions are and also ”open” in leaving the person you have just IM’d room to manoeuvre. Not sure that line leaves much doubt about the intentions of the sender, to be honest.
But then, maybe I’m just jealous.

Tia said...

LOL Eaton !!!!
By SL standards that was subtle !!!!
Perhaps we should run an opening line contest?
Cheers
Tia

ahem....it's a Turing machine, not Turning :)

Thanks for pointing that out Emerlad. I sort of suspected at the time I was the one making a fool of myself - but decided to keep that in there for authencity.
