Okay, let's do the math. This thread is about a poll listing where SOLOists are.

We've got 20 people or posts discussing the poll, while only 108 people actually -took- the poll. And of those 20 posts on this thread, only 1.735 of them are on the subject of the thread.... aforementioned poll. What's wrong with this picture?

Philip,

Your post was not technically on the topic of the poll, which is where SOLOists are.  Please try to stay on topic if you're going to post.  You can also start a new thread decrying people like yourself who can't stay on topic.

Seriously, though, there's nothing wrong with the picture of active SOLOists bantering.  What is wrong is that there are about 80 or so lurkers who never say anything.  Speak up, people!

Jason,

You took my last post seriously, which is in itself a departure from the thread...and threatens you with papal bull.

Joe—would you kindly just fast-track the foreplay & make love to Jason, please? You can see how out-of-control hormonal he is. Please put him, & us, out of his/our misery. Besides, there's been far too much of that *hetero*sexual nonsense here lately. Marcus & Jennifer, Katdaddy (??? I ask you!!) & Mr. Kelly ... bah, humbug! It's time we fags struck back!!

Linz,

SOLO has turned into a hook up web-site for heteros!

Damn! Your plans for Gay world domination have been thwarted again! ;-)

Marcus, Funny how I haven't "hooked up" yet. I don't think you and Jennifer have either.  It seems that  you are unfamiliar with how the term is commonly used here in America.   

Jason, why don't you invite Joe into the kitchen.  I think you two would make a very cute couple.  Best of luck.

Spring fever is blossoming all around Solo.

Kat,

I'm not sure what you mean there.  Marcus and I have most assuredly "hooked up."  :) 

Actually, we did not spill the beans until we were together in England.

Kat's just been a fag hag too long.  In it's homo-cono (tation) it's meant slightly differently than Jennifer's usage.

Jason, care to enlighten here?  I thought the term was pretty universal.

Jennifer,

In fag parlance, to "hook-up" originally meant to sleep with someone you've just met, usually from a bar or online.  It can now mean sleeping with someone at the end of a date. (e.g., "How was your date last night?  Did you hook up?")

Usually if you hook up with somebody it means it was a one-time thing.  ("To trick" is used in this same way; hence seeing someone out at the bar or club that your friends haven't met before, and explaining when the guy walks away "Oh, he was just a trick."   And no, it has none of the prostitution connotations that it has for the straight world.)

You know, I feel a little funny relating this.  Like I'm giving away secrets from the clubhouse.  Oh, well.  If anyone wants to join, the initiation is a scream.  So to speak.

Jason

Jason,

 I did use the term "hook-up" together with the word "hetero".

Maybe we need a "gay forum" complete with a glossary and dictionary for the uninitiated? :-)

Linz - Am I now "Mr. Kelly" all of a sudden because I came out of the closet as hetero? Dayamm!

(sigh)


I once mentioned a slogan I would proudly chant from SOLO to other Objectivists:

We're here. We're queer. Get used to it!


Well, now, here is one for We-the-Minority at SOLO:

We're straight. It's great. Get used to it!

Michael K.,

You're not the minority.  Trust me. 

Though the fact that some of us queers are particularly vocal might make it seem otherwise :-)
