    Um no. I did it myself. (with the help of a couple of books)

    Trying hard to contain my indignation at the sexist nature of that remark.

    Not really working.

    Trying to contain amazement at how little the sense of humor is present there. Either way, do not hold back your indignation, tell us how you really feel.

    Guhtrie

    I am disappointed.

    Swedish

    No, she shouldn't get used to it. She should, however, learn to discern between a light hearted humorous comment or a disrespectful insult......oh well, can't win em all.

    Sergeant Lard is right; it was a light natured comment, not an insult. If you start taking things like that as a slight, and react to small comments like that as you did, then I fear for your health if Xev targets you.

    Guys, back off. I thought Scaperz was a woman, I just wasn't sure. Now I know. Ya see kiddos, Scapers tend to be women, they comprise 70% of the viewing audience for Farscape, my most beloved show by the way.

    Scapers are welcome here by the thousands. And Scaperzrule is epsecially welcome here because shes cool. Now, if Xev decides to pick on her, I'm going to defend Scaperz. Scaperz, I got your back.

    My god you guys need to learn to distinguish between mock indignation and someone who is seriously offended!

    I dont think that it is especially funny, but i understand no offence was meant.

    And who the hell's Xev?

    SArgentlard? - you can eat my exhaust fumes.

    Xev is the scary high posting sort of nihilist likes strange death metal music, discussing philosophy, saying how crap things are, and generally picking on people. But shes off colour these days, getting a bit bored, I think shes past it myself.

    I get it. Every forum has (at least) one.

    Looking back at the my post
    I can sort of see how it was interpreted as serious. I think it was the 'um'. I write in an over coloquial way which A) pisses the hell out of my English teacher and B) causes this type of misunderstanding, because online there is no adjustment of tone.

    Anyway, just my analysis.

    Ah, smilies, yes. I'll remember that in future. I have to say though, either my (ancient) monitor is displaying them wrong or these smilies are exceptionally bad. Not these ones especially

    Scapers are fans of Farscape. Because Farscape is the most awesome show on the planet! And you know what? Scifi channel may have given it the boot, but it's coming back! I miss John and Aryen, and Pilot and Rygel... I can't wait to see the mini-series.
