Re: Fancying A Shag

Well, obviously that depends on the type of shag.

A Carolina Shag might be fun. Or we could go see what the Black Shags are up to. After a day of all this strenuous activity, we could be all shagged out.

A slight clarification

" Some 36 per cent would "approach romantic suitors" via email. "

Or

"Some 72 per cent of male users "approach romantic suitors" via email. "
Only 72%?

Conversely that is why they are so revealing, since typos etc. can be spell checked and caught well in advance of sending. It is easy to 'judge' someone that sends a really poorly formatted email since they had time to fix it but either didn't care or didn't know how to do so.

Email vs. chat

Regarding judging people's true nature online, real time chat is much more revealing than email. With an email you always have the option to place your words very carefully, by taking enough time to carefully compose your message.

With chat it's much closer to a real conversation. If you take several minutes to reply you're not going to come off especially bright no matter how well you write...

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
