Title: Be nice I am new
Post by: Archangela on March 22, 2006, 06:12:14 PM
My name is Angela. My first admission is that I am bi-I love Star Trek and Star Wars. If you love Sci Fi it is possible to let them all into your heart. I am pretty much a full on Sci Fi and fantasy geek girl. Don't ask me about star dates but I am good with episode names. Currently I am really into Battlestar Galactica, though I am not sure about that season finale...October!!! Gimme a break.

Anyway, I am a friend/co-worker of Jenny's and we like to bore/scare our fellow workers by having Trek and Sci Fi conversations starting with the words "who would win in a fight....?"

My favorite Trek captain is Pickard. Favorite Trek character is Data. I identify most with Jane mainly because she is a chick in a leadership position and so am I.

Still learning the ways of the forum so next post will be less boring and more colorful. Engage.

Angela, like an angel but with an "ah"

Welcome aboard Angela.  Glad to have you with us!  Oh, and Galactica is the best!  October is way too far away!

Hello, Thank you so much.

Geez, didn't I say be nice. I take abuse all day from brave people behind computers it is cool. My husband is drumming in my ear. It is so awesome that we have an anonymous space where we can be mean to people we would be afraid to approach in public. Didn't think I would get attacked. And don't take it personally...I am a talker, not a writer and never claimed to be anything else. 

Although I noticed that I also mistyped "Jane" instead of Janeway so if you are going to be mean at least be thorough.

Have a great day!

A

It is sad that you can't type sarcasm.

personal attacks arent allowed here and i didnt mean anything i said in a bad way. u will soon learn that as hard as it is, i try to master the art of typing sarcasticly. you will notice that i use a lot of lol's and other expressions, :)
Title: Re: Be nice I am new
Post by: Archangela on March 22, 2006, 09:11:08 PM
That's kinda what I meant anyway about the sarcasm. I was being a bit sarcastic as well with the pointing out my own mistake thing. I admit it was jolting and I did get the impression that I was being attacked sort of. But it is totally cool. I will get used to it I am sure. The last time I was doing this regularly was in the old irc days. Otherwise I have been posting on sites with people I know. This is different.

On a totally random note, I was wardrobe mistress for a play that Picard's real life son was in and we got to meet him. However, I must admit that I stayed away because he was there to see his son in a play and not to be attacked. I watched from afar. He is very small but so hot. Anyway, I also met Troi. I gave her an autographed picture of myself. I am sure she thought I was crazy but I like to change things up a bit   :cheering

So what is your story Mr. Picard? Do tell.

Thank you all for support. I appreciate the warm welcome and I promise to spell check in the future as I would  not want to cause anything.

So we cool??

indeed. u will get to know us soon. u will find that we tend to go more for Trek then star wars. and u stole the picture thing from me. lol. i cant believe u do that. Cause i sent Worf a pic and i wrote, Here is an autographed picture of me, i would like to trade it for one of you..... sadly i never got a responce or a picture from him. the picture was really cool though, i photoshoped myself onto the bridge.

That rocks. I just stood in line to get her picture signed and I happened to have a picture of an ad I had modeled for because they had just been printed. I walked up and she signed my First Contact and then I picked up her pen and signed my add and said thank you. She was like "This is you.?!?!?" I hope that she at least was able to take a moment and realize that was not what she was expecting. She was very cool.

Okay I am off to look for typos in all of your posts  :innocent

Later AA

yeah, ive never met her but have heard that she is one of the friendlier st people. she always has a smile for the fans. My cousin met John Delancy (Q). he was at a peter, paul, and mary concert. they shook his hand, then i shook my cousins hand later. so it was like i shook his hand too.... almost.

Picard, you might want to use some capitalization and cut back on the shortcut speech (u for you, etc.) if you're going to correct other folks posts.  But Angela seemed to take the comments in stride - which is a good thing.  On another note, I'm also a big Buffy/Angel fan Angela.  Did you see my latest prop in the collectible section?  The slayer scythe.  It's a very cool piece.  :)

Rico calm down, dude you're a control freak. Who the hell cares if Picard uses u instead of you, and youre scaring the shit out of me with the Buffy the Vampire stuff. First you kick Javert then the other guy, both great guys. You remind me too much of my mom, i'm leaving.

I was making a point Omega.  If someone decides to correct someone else on spelling (in this example) perhaps they should fix their own postings first.  I'm sorry that this seems to bother you, especially since it didn't involve you.  As you are leaving I will just wish you well.

Sorry to disrupt your welcome posting Angela with this.
Title: Re: Be nice I am new
Post by: Jen on March 23, 2006, 10:51:06 AM
Wow............

I personally thought your post was fairly benign Rico. And I think it was classy of you to wish him well.  Sorry that your friend left Picard. I hope you stick around.
Title: Re: Be nice I am new
Post by: Picard_delta_5 on March 23, 2006, 11:21:42 AM
oh i intend to, i already called him and told him he should delete the post, but he was just being weird. well, i guess that's his choice. I'll stop recommending the forum to people, i recommended it to cap winters and he hasn't posted anything. and omega.....

As they say, water under the bridge now.  Let's move along....

Glad to see another girl geek here!  Welcome Angela.  Sorry Omega seemed to spoil things a bit for your welcome thread.  It seems Rico handled things very professionally.  Again, glad to see another girl here!  :)

As random as that is... I do like Bruce, but not the biggest fan. I have been emersed in him though. My husband is a huge fan!!! I have even watched all of Bubba Ho-tep, oh yes Bubba Ho-tep. And I do always love him turning up in Sam Raimi movie.

Have you heard of the book, "If Chins Could Kill"?

Title: Re: Be nice I am new
Post by: Rico on March 25, 2006, 11:59:42 AM
I've also always enjoyed Bruce Campbell's work.  He's a funny guy and doesn't take himself to seriously.  Plus he grew up around near where I did.

Post by: Picard_delta_5 on March 25, 2006, 02:27:13 PM
ah, then i shall look into some of his work
