An interesting thing happened tonight....whilst I was on this very computer in the corner of EDR, a guy started picking on a girl at one of the other computers. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT DONE. It was sort of in fun, but she was fed up with it, and asked him to stop, and he wouldn't. I've never seen anything like this happen in all my time wiht Princess. o.0 I 'spect that's at least partially because that's instantaneous firing grounds with Princess. Zero tolerance and all that. Anyhow, I listenecd to this for a minute or two, her laughing and at the same time asking him to stop (that's the prollem...to a (stereotypical) guy, when you laugh, you don't REALLY want him to stop :-P ). So I got fed up with it and told him, in Command Voice, "Oh, leave her alone already." To my eternal surprise, he did. He didn't look guilty, but he did stop. And he did it in the way a lower-ranked pack member does when reprimanded by a superior. I'm...still not sure how to take that. But I'm glad or her, I guess. Beyond that, I leave that to your analysis and explanation/speculation. I'm going to bed. Love you! Goodnight!
