"Jon, you are such a good worker that the management team feels you have earned a promotion."
"You're right - there are distinct voids in your personal armory and you should remedy that by purchasing more handguns, rifles, and shotguns."
"You're absolutely correct Jon - I was wrong to say that and I apologize for acting inappropriately and saying hurtful things to you."
"No, don't worry Jon - you have been working very hard on your dissertation and I think you deserve some time off to relax."
"Hey Jon, congrats! You've lost weight and you look amazing!"
"Jon, I love the way you pontificate and how you tie the DUNE universe into the conversation as an example of our modern world and the troubles we face."
"Hi. I'm single, chaste, conservative, learned, self-respecting, nerdy, witty, charming, and I think you're super cute with your scruffy beard and pot belly. Let's get to know each other at a snail's pace!"

Dune was awesome, even if I haven't read all the books yet (the first 3 were good, but God emperor of dune just skipped too far ahead and was weird).

God Emperor of Dune was definitely a bit strange, but it was absolutely paramount to establish the rest of the story. If you can get through God Emperor, then Heretics of Dune, Chapterhouse Dune, Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune are really awesome to read and they all tie back to God Emperor.
The prequel books were also very good. The story of the Butlerian Jihad and the war between humans and the thinking machines was a good story line and explained the formation of the Bene Gesserit, the Suk doctors, the Spacing Guild, CHOAM, and the back-story of the feud between the Harkonnens and the Atreides.
...I totally went all nerd just then. Oopsie.

Uh... actually I've seen that last one happen before. Doesn't happen often, but it has happened.

It seems to me that if she came up to you divulging all of this information about herself, you'd know an awful lot about her at warp speed. But perhaps you want to divulge things about yourself at a snail's pace?

Yes, that's correct. I'm not interesting enough or complex enough to get to know faster than a snail's pace.

It just seemed a little double standardish. Besides, I should think it would be opposite. Simple and uninteresting people one knows rather quickly. Complex and interesting people take more time to be pegged down, I would think.
"I just love to pry overcooked brownies out of an old metal pan and fling them across the room"
"Yes, we are going to a nice restaurant tonight, but your dirty work clothes are just fine"
"I need to tell you what you've done wrong while you sit there quietly"
"No I don't need a coffee break; I can work 24 hours a day"
"Yes Officer, I was speeding because I didn't feel like obeying the traffic laws today"
"Sure, leave that electrical panel hot while I'm working on it"

It seems like a double standard because it is.
You're kind of new so I'll give you some free advice. If you are ever confused about what I say - assume the worst is meant. I'm a self-loathing person so always assume the worst about me and it will make figuring out my postings a lot easier for you.

That's quite sad, about you being a self-loathing person. I did not mean to offend you, I know your initial post was in jest- only it irked me for some strange reason. I have not read very many of your posts, but you seem to have a good sense of humor, so that is something you can appreciate about yourself.
I know your spiritual status is unsure, so you can take or leave this next bit as you will. Jeremiah was self-loathing too. He was called the weeping prophet. He didn't think very much of himself. Yet in 31:3 "The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee." You may loathe yourself, but God loves you.
I am sorry for being harsh. I have a quick temper and need to let God control me more than let me control myself (not an excuse, an explanation).
