I thought you were a guy. I was informed otherwise. I apologize. How may I make restitution?

She likes brownies.

Encourage good posting behavior to reduce her workload?


This keeps happening! Why does this keep happening?!

I blame Cosmo.

I get this often, and understand that my name has some level of ambiguity. I'd suggest taking a gander a folks' user profile before selecting a pronoun in the future to confirm if they have a preference for how they'd like to be addressed beforehand (this is what I do). :)


So to make restitution, I should make brownies and encourage others to post less inflammatory statements?

Okay. I think I can do that. *looks* Wait. I just realize I ate all the brownies.

Fortunately, brownies are easy to bake more of.

*rummages through Missus Turin's vast stockpile of foodstuffs* I've got a pile o' boxes of brownie mixes. Now to figure out how to teleport object...


Well if you could do that for me, Turin, I'd be most grateful.

Mostly since I have no way of buying more brownies atm.

Surely rubits don't eat brownies.

I thought rubits were powered by brownies and coffee. Have I been misinformed?

Listen, and understand! Those Brownies is out there! They can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned with. They don't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And they absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are fed! Our only hope is Sara Conner Marie, a rubit sent back through time to stop them and prevent a literal brownie-pockylypse, aka Fudgement Day.

"...Brownies is out there"?! Good grief.


What's a rubit?

Chris. Chris is a Rubit. An awesome one.


One of her kind, I'd dare to say.


I know I'm not a rubit. If anything I'm the 665th clone of the Anti-Christ. :p ;)

Fixed. :D


Not sure I'm the Anti-Chris though...

"Our only hope is Sara Conner Marie and a rubit..." {sigh}

I didn't know either. I have only seen women called Chris as a short version of Crissy or Christine. If it was a female as their full name I always saw it spelled as "Kris". I guess even old wraiths like me can learn new things.

It's a common mistake (I made it too, a while back), and probably just says something about expectations. Chris's avatar is fairly ambiguous, and her name is, too, so we, as a societal habit, fall back on "male as default". We shouldn't do that, of course. It's something to work on. I'm trying to get in the habit of always checking people's profiles these days, and falling back on "they" if that doesn't bear any fruit. I'm not perfect about remembering to do so.


Worked with a guy named Ashley, super cool guy. :-)

It isn't helped (or is excused by, depending on your perspective) by the fact that "male as the default for unknown gender" is how our language works when talking about living things. It's grammatically correct even when not truly correct.


And I worked with a woman named Stanley when I was doing contract work at the post office. Knew a guy named Ashleigh once, too.

I'm just glad she's forgiving with those tooth-pliers of hers...


I'm just lucky all my teeth are insured...


I think there is a thread right now discussing the limitations of Text based chat. I think you guys found another one!
