Dorothy Parker's "A Certain Lady" Oh, I can smile for you, and tilt my head, And drink your rushing words with eager lips, And paint my mouth for you a fragrant red, And trace your brows with tutored finger-tips. When you rehearse your list of loves to me, Oh, I can laugh...

I'm kind of a literal person. Or as some might say, a humorless jerk. ha ha. No. But the whole gesture/concept of the Friends list feature strikes me as odd in this respect: are you actually friends with everyone on yours? We each have our own definitions of what a friend is, so I'm not...

I feel like a moron for asking, seeing as how I've been on this site for a couple months now. But you know how it is, you don't ask or no one says in the beginning and the longer you go, the more stupid you feel for not knowing. Well I guess I reached the point where I just don't care whatcha...

So I was putting Xmas decorations away when I rediscovered my old board game Crack the Case. I loved playing it, but sadly didn't get that many opportunities to as Monopoly, Life and the others were more popular with everyone. I was thinking maybe I could play it here at SPW. Perhaps gather a...

...I'll admit that I'M the one that killed JFK. In cahoots with Col. Mustard. I hid the revolver in his conservatory and Mr. Boddy has been blackmailing me ever since. But now I'm free to reveal the truth, and can have peace at last. Forgive me people of the world. And Milton Bradley.

...fill in the blank. I suspect you'd no longer have social anxiety disorder. So, jokes aside, how would you be different, or what would change about you? Nothing? What would you do that you ordinarily wouldn't? Would you be lonelier, or more at peace? It's a preposterous hypothetical...

Lots of people chew their nails. That's not anything uncommon. But I've come to find out recently that I'm not alone in the gross habit of gnawing at the skin around my nails. According to wikipedia the behavior is called Dermatophagia and is also an ocd. Which was news to me. I thought it...

...who watches Dexter and The Walking Dead. Among other things. I need new people to chat to about my shows! Or how free verse poetry is for lazy people. And a thousand other things. I have loads of time to kill, and an MSN seat to fill. If you're interested, message me. I'll pay you in...

Well someone had to say it. You're welcome, society!

Having SA can make doing that a chore. More of a chore than it already is. Thank the lawd for absentee voting. Anywho, nothing on earth is as entertaining as seeing Fox News freak out everyday. 4 mo' years for The 'Rack. Barack, that is.

I was wondering how big a factor does acne play (for those of you who suffer from it) in your social anxiety? Myself, I've struggled with it since I was a teenager. I'm in my thirties now and it's as bad as it's ever been. I even put a pic up to show it, lol. Not that I go out much anyway...

Here's the thing, we all love music. And we all have our fave bands. And most of us want others to like them too. Not everyone is going to like the music we like, obviously, but there are those who might... if we expose them to it the right way. What the hell am I talking about? Even our...

How many of you here (or that read this, at least) have only online romantic relationships because of your SAD? Either because of SAD or other reasons. And if you have fallen in or out of love, how do you cope with those feelings? I've been chatting online for about twelve years now (not...

For those who don't know me (what, I'm not famous yet!?) I have SAD (I feel like I should be standing up for this story) and am a recluse. I hardly ever leave the house. But I'm a huge exercise nut. With a shy, nougaty center. And jogging in public has always been embarrassing, therefore a...

I have absolutely no idea where to post this so I'm putting it here, sorry. So I've been to a couple of forums - a few poetry ones, a few dealing with loneliness/social problems - and notice quite a lot of people using them more as a means to network or hook up than for any kind of discussion...

I'm new here, looked around the forum and it seemed like there wasn't any section other than this for it. I'm a huge poetry nut. So I wondered if anyone was interested in exhanging poems - you send me yours, I send you mine, we each comment on 'em, etc - or we can talk about the art generally...

Not really, it actually has some of the loveliest farms, backroads and foreclosed homes. Okay, where to start. I just discovered this site earlier today. I've been to one other forum similar to this and was disappointed by it. Too often people there weren't what they claimed to be or had...
