It is to cry.

Today my students asked me my age and I answered truthfully (twenty-three). Her response was along the lines of, "No way! I thought you were way older! I thought you were older than _____-sensei!"

The teacher she was referring to is close to forty years old.

Those kids should be smacked upside the head.

Though I have to admit, I'm now curious to see what you look like.

I would smack them around if they didn't run so fast! Little buggers.

I LOOK VERY VERY NORMAL FOR MY AGE THANK YOU VERY MUCH IF YOU DON'T MIND THE STRANGE APPENDAGES.

Well, it's definitely not an ordinary mustache. *mysterious!*

blind_go participation must be some kind of aphrodisiac for you. You should let tarigwaemir know so she can put it up in the community as a selling point. :)

And don't hesitate to slap those little Japanese kids down. I'm presuming, like Chinese kids, they respect authority too much to rat you out.

I can picture the ads now! "Blind_go--more ridiculous than viagra, and lasts a thousand times longer!" And NO, I'm not going to let Tari know, I'll probably end up as an aphrodisiac poster girl or something.

You'd be surprised at how misbehaved Japanese kids can be. -_- Don't believe the stereotypes! Kids are kids everywhere.

I ocasionally whap them on the head lightly, but yeah, I should probably whip out the nunchucks and shurikens one of these days.

GASP THIS MEANS YOU ACTUALLY *ARE* A FORTY-YEAR-OLD MAN WITH A BAD MUSTACHE. MY DISMAY AND HORROR CANNOT BE ADEQUATELY CONVEYED IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

You are actually exactly the age I pinned you at, also. GO ME I CAN GUESS AGES CORRECTLY THROUGH THE INTAR WUBS. XDD

Also also, you realize that now I am going to take like eight million pictures of you when we hook up, and then photoshop them until you look either really, really old, or really, really a 40yr old man with a bad mustache. YOU CAN PICK WHICH ONE YOU LIKE BEST.

YOU SAW RIGHT THROUGH ME AGAIN DAMN YOUR EYES. I'M COMING TO A HOUSE NEAR YOU TO MURDER YOU AND PUT YOU IN THE REFRIGGERMERATOR.

PEUT-ETRE VOUS POUVEZ EXPRESSER TON HORREUR PAR UTILISER UNE LANGUE DIFFERENT?

Hey, I did tell you about my old job before, so you had a few clues about my age. It's not like I couldn't do the same about you, right?

...are you 21?

Oh, and YOU ARE A PHOTOSHOP WHORE, AND WHEN I GET TO YOUR HOUSE I AM GOING TO TEAR THAT PROGRAM OUT OF YOUR COMPUTER WITH THE SHEER FORCE OF MY 40 YEAR OLD MUSTACHE. PLUS I WILL STEAL YOUR CAMERA BECAUSE MINE SUCKS.

OH MY GAWD. I WILL LIKE, TAME YOU WITH CHEESE AND - AND - COLD CUT SANDWICHES! WESTERN DELIGHTS WILL DOMESTICATE YOU.

NON NON, L'HORREUR DONT JE PARLE, C'EST TROP HORRIBLE MEME POUR MILLE AUTRES LANGUES. SINON MA TETE EXPLOSERAI. VRAI.

Strike one! *grins* Here's a hint: I'M OLDER THAN STACY. XD Also I had this hilarious conversation about you with Stacy like, forever ago, in which I was like, 'omg stacy I think that flonnebonne chick like, lived near me or something' and she was like 'o____O STALKER' and I was all 'no no no, see, she mentioned the vancouver sun! and also ubc! really i am just observant, not creepy'. It was exciting. Well, I was excited.

a;sldkjfsd;lkjsd;lk DO YOU HAVE A MAC. BECAUSE IF YOU RUN A MAC THEN I WILL SEND YOU THE STUPID APP, NO MUSTACHES REQUIRES PLZ GOD CAN WE AVOID THE MUSTACHES.

YES, WHEN YOU TURN AROUND TO GET THE CHEESE AND DEAD ANIMAL SLICES OUT OF THE *FRIDGE* THAT'S WHEN I GET YOUSSSSS.

MAIS TON FRANCAIS EST MEILLEUR QUE WATASHI NO FURANSU-GO. I don't speak any identifiable language nowadays.

asdlkgsajg;ljegi I already knew that you're older than Stacy. EVERYONE is older than Stacy! (I'm sorry, it's true!)

Eeeeek! My own stalker! It's a good thing I'm a 40 year old mustachioed man or else I'd be totally freaked out! I totally stalk people's LJs all the time, I just don't mention it to anyone. It's more creepy that way.

I have Windows, but dun worry I gots Photoshop Elements already. It's an almost legitimate version too! I don't use it much cuz my poor laptop can't handle it very well, but it's usable.

Thank you for offering some comfort to this doddering old woman. *sulks*

They're not disposable! They're just...short-lived! Like sea monkeys! But seriously, I felt bad about breaking up with the last one (though I'm sure I didn't come across that way) and will probably not dump this new one any time soon. Really! No matter how bad that deadline gets!
