I was just IMing pawpicker and using my webcam!!!

[crim son]

Unfortunately he doesn't have one but I think it's time he understand what he's dealing with. :rofl:

Who else has a webcam? It's so cool. Embarrassing, but cool!

[suninvited]

1. Get a grip !!!

for real .

[crim son]

5. I am very curious what I'm supposed to get a grip about.

Please be specific.

[Danger Mouse]

2. what are you even talking about?

[crim son]

4. What am I talking about?

What do you mean? I guess what I meant was that I used the webcam I usually use for only dear friends, with pawpicker, while IMing through Yahoo. He doesn't have a camera but could see me, which I thought was cool.

Embarrassing, but cool.

[Danger Mouse]

17. I didn't know you have ym.

[crim son]

20. I don't see how that explains your tone.

Whatever, Elrond.

[Danger Mouse]

24. I've already explained myself.

[crim son]

28. So you have.

Thanks.

[DS1]

3. Cool

[crim son]

6. Well, I thought it was.

My excitement has been somewhat dampened by the above two responses.

[Inchworm]

7. hmmm...

were you fully clad?

:rofl:

:hi:

[crim son]

8. Of course.

Is that why people have responded with such disdain? My feelings are fucking hurt, and that rarely happens. But, hi, inchworm. :hi:

[Inchworm]

10. I'm just a whacko

I thought I'd tease :D

:hi:

[crim son]

15. Sorry.

I didn't mean to respond so seriously. I feel like I've been broadsided a few times here on DU lately and it's always so unexpected. I need to grow crocodile skin. No worries, Worm. Heh. "Worm."

[Inchworm]

18. heh.. heh..

you said worm :P

How's tings?

:hug:

[crim son]

26. Not bad.

Good, even. I've started up my yoga again, and am doing some cardio. Somebody here jested that I couldn't get down to my fighting weight of 130 by December. But I shall, oh, I shall. Et tu? :hug:

[Inchworm]

33. All is

as.

I'm in a situational limbo that is tough, but I am thick.

Glad to hear you are ok. What's up with the robbery? hmm.. or was that a bad dream?

:hug:

[crim son]

39. Completely real.

It's as if nothing happened, aside from the "plastic knife" jokes we've been throwing around. She is a little different, is my daughter. I hope she continues to be fine with it.

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. I have one, but usually the kids are the ones who skype on it

because I don't really like (yes it's embarassing) to be seen all that often. Glad you had fun.

[crim son]

12. I sort of wish other people had one,

because I like to see who I'm talking to. Funny... none of the kids have bought one. Maybe it's TOO embarrassing. :D

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. Do what you enjoy doing, as long as you aren't hurting

yourself or anyone else, screw what anyone else thinks. I'm just (believe it or not) painfully shy at times.

[crim son]

16. Okay.

So, I'm genuinely curious. When you read my post, did it sound... lewd, or wrong? I had a conversation with somebody and he could see my face and my expressions and I could wave hello to him. I had no intention of hurting anybody and indeed wonder how I might.

I ask, because of the peculiar response to this post, MrsGrumpy. -Lisa

[ScreamingMeemie]

19. Not at all. I said what I said because a couple of responses

to your initial OP were kind of jerky. Sorry if you took the last one the wrong way.

[crim son]

22. No worries.

People have been somewhat jerky to me lately, here on DU. I was just curious if I'd been grossly offensive.

[ScreamingMeemie]

25. Not that I have seen. I lack a filter of late so don't worry about it.

I am sure most here have the opinion that I'm nutty. Oh well...

[crim son]

27. Sorry to badger you, MrsGrumpy.

:pals:

[ScreamingMeemie]

29. No badgering. Just honest questioning.

Enjoy your webcam crimson. My kids have had a ton of laughs, some at my expense, with it. Look into Skype. It's free to call others who are on it as well.

[some guy]

11. you look like a ghost...

Here comes that man again
It's always round midnight
That amsterdam creeps into my pc
After a long hard day selling pornography
He likes to come home and talk to me
He's got his mind on the job but
His technological props
Oops, another file on the email
And though I'm scared to click open
I just can't help having a look
Oh, here comes that man again
A car crash in my psyche
My curiosity's driving me
Yes here he comes again
Who'd have thought I'd have as much fun
With an anonymous dutchman?
I never knew I had it in me
He says the camera is on and
Can I see him yet?
I say "babe you look like a ghost
And sound like a dalek to me"
So let's go back to the written word
Even though we both know it's absurd
Here comes that man again
Here comes that man again
Here comes that man again

Here comes that man again
He knows that I'm online
"knock knock, who's there? "
It's just a matter of time
Here comes millenium man
Rum and coke in one hand
And in the other...
Is that a mouse a see?
Although when I tell him he's corny
It seems to make him quite horny
And through the cyberspace
I watch the rapture on his face
Yes while his girlfriend is sleeping
His sexuality's peeking
Here comes that man again
After a long hard day
He likes to come home and talk to me
He says it's something he needs
He can't stop spilling the seeds
God bless european unity
And all those who never sleep

Sha la la la la, get your rocks off baby
Sha la la la la, get your rocks off baby
Sha la la la la, get your rocks off
Another stain on another blue dress

Sha la la la la, get your rocks off baby
Sha la la la la, get your rocks off baby
Sha la la la la, get your rocks off
Yes, yes

[crim son]

13. That's what a hard day of selling pornography will do to a gal.

:crazy:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

21. I have one installed on my Macbook.

No idea how to use it, though.

[AlCzervik]

23. that's what i use to talk to my husband when he's away. Ichat and then hit video

on the top bar.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

30. But I don't even like talking on the phone.

So adding visuals to it won't help. :rofl:

[AlCzervik]

when my daughter got her braces off that's how he got to see her new smile.

i'm not much for the phone either or for ichat but he's away so much that it's a good way to keep in touch.

[crim son]

32. It actually does help!

You can see *exactly* how vile the other person thinks you are, by his/her expression! :rofl:

[crim son]

31. It can be fun, especially with people you don't ever see in real life.

The ex got one for me for Christmas because, even though he lives across town, we didn't see one another that often. It's better than a phone call because you can see the expression on the person's face. Or, I like it, anyway.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

35. Too bad I only have two expressions.

:P

[crim son]

36. I don't have many more.

I think perhaps the webcam post was a stupid idea and I will think of something else scintillating to report. Have you seen pawpicker? I need a favor and he isn't here or on myspace. :hi:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

41. No, the post was fine.

But I haven't seen Pawpicker. I was out for four hours, so I must have missed him.

[crim son]

44. He's probably done the sensible thing and gone to bed.

Hugs to you, SA. (((hugs)))

[Starbucks Anarchist]

45. Hugs back.

:hug:

[Aristus]

34. I wasn't going to answer with disdain, crim son.

I was going to ask: Can I see? B-)

[crim son]

37. To be quite frank, Aristus,

I turned it off and took it down. I feel utterly stupid even mentioning the thing.

[Aristus]

38. Aw, sweetie. I'm sorry.

I was trying to lighten the mood a little. I'm sorry you feel stupid. It's a rotten feeling.

:hug:

[crim son]

40. My Catholic MIL would consider it

a great experience in humility. Thank you for trying to lighten the mood! All is well over here, you just don't get to see it. :P

[Aristus]

42. No problem. I'll just imagine it. All except the part where you feel stupid.

'Cause you're not stupid. You're our wonderful crim son.

Remember that... B-)

[crim son]

43. Thank you, my friend.

And you are my wonderful Aristus. :hug:

[Aristus]

46. Aww, shucks!

:blush:

[FedUpWithIt All]

59. Aww...hell with them. You had a nice time. Don't let others dictate

what is good and bad in YOUR life. Clearly there was nothing untoward and anyone who is giving you crap is just acting judgmental and ignorant (perhaps they are scapegoating for some reason). I knew what you were referring to when i read the OP. Chatting with a friend on a web cam is no more offensive than sitting with a friend and having a cup of coffee. And even when there IS more to the cam then friendly chatting... WTFCares!!! Seriously people should get lives.



Put that thing back on, if it made you happy, and hang out with your friends, dammit. :hi:

[crim son]

65. That's the kindest thing I've read in a long time.

Thank you, FUWIA! I may turn it on again. Thinking of it, because it seems harmless enough.

Thanks! :pals:

[Ava]

47. i got an isight camera

i love it!

[crim son]

48. And it takes wonderful pics! If you don't cherish your nose, that is.

:P :hug:

Why did you disappear on myspace and then return?

[marzipanni]

55. Wonderful pics... if you don't cherish your nose, that is,

INDEED!!!

[crim son]

57. Shit! I didn't expect that!

Also, the office environment gives me the shivers. :scared:
:

[Ava]

56. i disappeared?

i had you as a friend, but then it said your account no longer existed. then i saw you again and readded you, lol. myspace is crazy sometimes!

:hug:

[Pierre.Suave]

49. I have one built into my Macbook Pro...

I have never actually used it though.

:hug:z for my Crim son tonight.

[SPKrazy]

50. Heh, it was cool seeing you laugh and try to feed me your cat!

:rofl:

I need to get me one

although, I dunno if I want people to see me all the time

:eyes:

:hi:

:hug:

[Inchworm]

51. So...

she's hawt right?

:P

[SPKrazy]

52. Of course she is

she is teh hawtness :D

:hi:

[Inchworm]

53. hope all is well

glad you seen some sunshine :)

:pals:

[Fox Mulder]

54. I have a webcam...

but I don't want to use it.

[crim son]

62. Yeah, well me either.

Lost my interest.

[Drunken Irishman]

58. I'm going to add you on Myspace.

Accept me!

[crim son]

60. I would love that!

I'll check, but you are accepted, of course! -Lisa

[crim son]

61. Ooooh...

maybe you weren't addressing me? No worries.

[Drunken Irishman]

63. Of course I was! I even added you.

I think I did, anyway.

[crim son]

64. Somebody did. Add me, I mean.

Is it possible we were already the closest intimates? :)

[Guava Jelly]

66. I have one but I rarely use it

One of these days I will have to say hi :)

[NJmaverick]

67. They are fun

Got one myself, but I hardly ever use it.
