Water, I would ask you to marry me, but the commute would be a bitch, and I know how "practical" you are, so I guess I will refrain. Hope you are feeling better though.
Water . . . I know we don't know each other very well . . . But . . . I, uh . . . *Kneals, pulls out diamond-studded ring, and assumes puppy-dog expression* Will you marry me?
See, Invert? Now here's a man who knows his business! To make it more romantic, he even remembered my previous moniker!
I have found out this after I got a new name here: A diamond of the first water. A man of the highest merit. The colour or lustre of a pearl or diamond is called its "water." One of the "first water" is one of the best colour and most brilliant lustre. We say also, "A man of the first water." http://www.bootlegbooks.com/Reference/PhraseAndFable/data/349.html#diamond As for the curse: Well, it seems that I am cursed anyway. So ...
Aha, setting the prime example of why marriage proposals should be 1. obligatorily also written, 2. those proposing must obligatorily be literate, as well as those who have been proposed to. No wonder so many marriages fail -- when they are based on a misunderstanding! The bloke said "Merry me!", thinking what a merry bastard he is, looking at his girlfriend's tits from down below. The girl said yes, and went on arraging the wedding and everything, but the dude thought that this is all just another woman madness. As, years later, or not even so long, things get sour, and he just doesn't understand what is going on, it becomes clear what a misunderstanding underlies the whole thing.
I promised to say no so that they could propose without fearing the consequences. It's a long story, I'll tell more about it later.
I do like a girl that growls. I am re-thinking the commute problem. Then again, a person who says, "I love you too", is an epithet must be somewhat twisted. I don't know if that is good or bad. I'm so conflicted, so addicted, Love, et al. EDIT - ok, I'm retarded. I have just seen the word epithet used SO many times with negative connotations, I didn't realize it could be used positively as well. *** way too embarassed ***

As long as you don't ask me to go to the movies and synchronise the voice of tanks, nuclear bombs and Oprah. Hm. My dear sir! Yes, it can be used positively as well. It is gravely derided though. Oh, and when I said, Like, I love you too? in Billy T's thread -- I thought you were criticizing me, so I, like, you know, like, responded to that criticism by completely avoiding it, making my response such that you'd have no chance to attack me back. It seems it failed to come across that way though. Otherwise, I am effusively correct when presenting examples, so if I'd try to say that I think that "I love you too" was an epithet, the sentence would be Like "I love you too"?
Huh. I promised to say no so that people would not fear the consequences of proposing. Okay? I'm not particularly fond of saying no anyway.
Oh. I thought you were seriously saying you loved me for being straight with you and for helping you see that you were slightly downplaying the way the threads can sometimes have a lot of empty name-calling, and for just being such an overall great person. But, if you were just being evasive and you don't love me, then why would I ask you to marry me? That would be a sad existence. I changed my mind again, a loveless marriage wouldn't be worth the commute. P.S. Even if you do have a nice growl.
water, oh water, my silly, silly girl, what have you gotten yourself into ... You are actually turning this thread into something by far more meaningful than it was first meant for. You'd ask me to marry you only if I would love you? Hm. It's obvious, but others so far haven't thought about this! I wonder why. I suppose they were counting on my promise to say no. Why do you think that I have started this thread? And a loving marriage would be worth it?
