Great! Does that mean you can advise me on soft furnishings? ;) :-O Sorry, you know I have to turn everything into a joke! I'm pleased that you felt OK to tell us, I think that must have been tough. Nothing will change for me. :rose: ... except maybe the odd cushion question. ;)

It is more comfortable to sit on with her tail?

There was an open mic last night, nobody was really in a great mood. I'm not sure if others can verify, but at least in a major city like Chicago, there was a solemn mood pretty much everywhere. I, for one, think laughter is the best therapy.

Saying "I don't care, it matters not to me" is rude? OK, whatever.

You may have intended for your statement to be taken that way, but the "you want a medal" comment is pretty much never meant as anything other than a snarky remark.

Congratulations. I never did figure out the proper way to respond to a revelation like that... Granted, I live in a very liberal area, so it's really a non-issue here.
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?
Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)Well, I think that response will suffice. :)

There has to be a joke there somewhere, I just can't get it tidy enough.

I'm not sure if "Ravel" is a male or female name, so I'm going to assume you are a man. You could not have picked a better profession short of being a football player. In all seriousness, I have several gay coworkers. It's not a big deal (at least 'round these parts).

OK. Yes, I'll give you snarky. But it certainly wasn't rude.

I'm gay. Not a hugely interesting revelation, I freely confess, so I shan't go on about it.

I'm straight. ...versus being crooked. :) Anyhow, I think it is pretty cool that gay and not gay people can hang out and share ideas and thoughts about common interests and not so common interests. :thumbsup:
