** New Friends **

After a while here you will find a ton of taiwanese-americans from CA and elsewhere in the US. A lot of people hang out at the clubs.

MiakaW? Oh, yeah. That 57-year-old guy in Phuket that likes to yank people’s chain on the Internet. “I have to find a scanner” before posting a pic…let’s see, which “adult model’s” picture should I use? :unamused:

We have to see your picture so that we know you’re not a turtle, or look like a turtle, We don’t like turtles :wink: Notice how no turtles are mods ? Or that turtles aren’t allowed to join in Phase-10, they keep droping the cards, they can’t hold them in their flippers.

I assume that “she” was referring to the Chinese euphemism “turtle-head.”
:wink:

You’ve got a lot of us interested, Miaka – especially Formosa, who is positively slobbering (you’ve even achieved the remarkable feat of taking his mind off SARS momentarily).

Once you supply that compelling photographic evidence of your irresistible attributes you’ll have more new friends buzzing around you than flies around the corpse of one of Dubya’s Iraqi war kills.

BTW, what’s the story behind the name Miaka?

OMNI, you make me LOL: "You’ve got a lot of us interested, Miaka – especially Formosa, who is positively slobbering (you’ve even achieved the [remarkable]!!! feat of taking his mind off SARS momentarily). "

I cannot even remember what SARS stands for, at this point. Hurry, Miaka, hurry!

sad, but true, for most. sometimes, i feel sad that, as a man, i’m inevitably connected to the male habitual overemphasis of physical attributes. i wonder if a guy put up a post about trying to meet someone whether he’d get such a request for a picture.

hey, here’s my suggestion to the forum: if you want to know what she looks like, go meet up with her and get to know her.

miaka, if i were you, i wouldn’t post a goddamn thing.

If I were a gal, I’d damn well want to see a picture of a guy before I rushed off to meet him! Why on earth should there be any difference between the sexes in this regard? So the male models hawking goods in the mags and TV ads are not just as pretty as the girls? And the film stars likewise? Etc., etc. It’s the 21st century, Embryo. The ladies are just as entitled to be picky about appearance as the guys. Many modern girls like their male companions to be clean, fit and well-groomed, among other things – slobs need not apply. What’s more, I think you missed that vital reference to the eyes. Ever heard the old saw about the eyes being windows to the soul? Cliched as it is, it’s very true. You can read a person’s character through and through by looking at the eyes. So, to repeat the bit you missed, it ain’t just a matter of features and contours – the spirit and temperament, or inner beauty or whatever you care to call it, shines out through those eyes. Inner and outer beauty are both essential parts of the whole for most discerning people – though if you’re happy to do without one or the other, or maybe both, then jolly good luck to you!

But actually, this thread is not about any kind of meat marketing. Miaka is just looking for friends to socialise with. We’re curious to know what she looks like, and are having a little banterous fun at the same time. Nothing to get one’s knickers in a twist about.

Don’t be put off, Miaka. Bring on the pic, please.

Omni, majority of those pretty boy models are gay~:(

If you’re asking this little girl to post her pic, then why don’t you do the same?[/quote]

Great idea! You first.

Sorry to confess my technical ineptitude, but how exactly does one post a picture here anyway?

One would post a picture by depositing it on a website and then creating an image link to that site.

It’s dead easy. So, MT, you’re posting something lovely for us?

Well, you can see my picture by clicking on the www. link at the bottom of this post.

Damn it! It has a picture of my son too! Rats, she’s on to me, I’m married. :smiling_imp:

Look - ummm, the kid is borrowed for the site only! :wink:

And they are all in Taiwan looking for a girlfriend, right!? :wink:

no… looking for girlfriends (plural)

At the bottom - Gus has those cute little pictures - one is for PM’s and one has a picture of a little house with the letters www. beside it.
That’s the one

Oops, sorry boss. Started to click on the tachia link and couldn’t find you.

unfreakin believable. I’ve been watching this thread for a while now. Shameless, shameless,shameless. I want pictures of you all right now for my “kids see these felons, be afraid, be really afraid” file.

Mika, don’t bend to the collective fantasy here. Let them wonder. Show up casually at any of the events, paintball or whatever. Reveal your identity only when it suits your advantage.

In the mean time I know a quiet little scanner shop… naw just kidding.

Please do not post your picture.
