I guess Erana is the more fluffy version of me. I've had multiple people tell me I scare small children, and I don't understand why. I mean, is a black ensemble really that scary?rottenbutter said:Rottenbutter is who I would be if I had all the time in the world to to collect my thoughts before speaking, and didn't have as many self-confidence issues.
I laughed for literally 5 minutes when I saw this.ElephantGuts said:I sure as hell hope not.
Why do people think I'm scary? I mean, I may wear black, but that's 'cause its practical! I mean, really, I'm the one dancing to my music and pointing out all the beautiful things of the world. And my pants are all stained with white, green, and a dash of blue paint.MaxTheReaper said:If it makes you feel better, you terrify the hell out of me, for some reason.
And yes, wearing lots of black tends to make people think you're prone to ascending the nearest bell tower, or something.
your not scary your... um, imposing. I don't find people who dress in all black scary but I can see why people would. If kids are actually calling you mommy despite dressing in all black you might have to get the people who think you scare them get their heads examined.Erana said:Why do people think I'm scary?

I mean, people tell me that I scare small children, but they're oddly attracted to me. Last week, a child called me, "Mommy." I wasn't quite sure how to interpret that, but he seemed pretty certain that I was his mother.
And no, I don't look like I'm likely anyone's mother.
You might be on to something because I've been here just about as long as she has and I don't find her intimidating at all. I am a bit jealous that she was able to get into college at such a young age, though...MaxTheReaper said:Oh god. Little kids love me. Like, run-across-the-room-and-hug-my-leg love me.Erana said:Why do people think I'm scary? I mean, I may wear black, but that's 'cause its practical!

I once got yelled at for nearly ten minutes because some mother thought I was running off with her daughter. I was trying to get her to let go of my leg! Pah.
And, you terrify me not because you wear lots of black, which I didn't know until you mentioned it, (obviously.) All of my clothes are black, so that doesn't bother me.You're just a regular here and I'm rather new. I guess I have a bit of newbie fear of the older members, though most of them are suspiciously helpful.
Most people here are very nice and helpful, we're like the polar opposite of the rest of the internet. They're are some exceptions but the standard is nice.MaxTheReaper said:Oh god.
