Coincidence?

Metal Vendetta · Post by **Metal Vendetta** » Wed Jun 01, 2005 12:35 pm

So I was chatting to the missus yesterday and she said that she mentioned to one of the girls who works in her pub that I got a Transformer for my birthday (Binaltech Battle Ravage for those who care, it rocks) and she was all "Wow, I love Transformers!" The missus then goes on to tell her that I post at one of those message boards on the internet (and that I've met up with one or two Transfans in the pub itself). Turns out that same girl has also posted on one of those message boards on the internet. Something about having a cat that was called Optimus Prime Rib.

...it all sounds strangely familiar...

Must be a concidence. Go meet her friends. We must check for sure.

Still Angelo living only round the corner from me and hanging out all the same haunts was on a similar level.

That's the annoying thing - I've known this girl for 6 months - it's just that we never talked TFs for some reason...

That pub will soon be filled with horny single TF-fans - all wearing TF-shirts.

Maybe this will finally get you to hang out with me.

Only a few of us know what pub Emvee's GF works at

But, if you're in England, and Prime Rib's in Louisiana, that's a bit of a drive to head to the pub isn't it? Maybe I'm not reading something right.

Maybe it's someone that know's him?

Does he post on any other boards?

Ahhh it's probably coincidence, it's a cute play on words after all.

I'm loving the effect in here, though: " A CHICK THAT'S INTO GEEKY THINGS! WHERE? WHERE?!?!"

YES! WHERE?!

Must book flight-ticket now!

Interesting, but what's wrong with being interested in meeting someone interested in the things that interest you?

Well hell sadie what do you expect? If a bunch of guys hear that some hot single chick works in a bar and likes a toyline from the 80's of course we're gonna be wondering whats goin on. Thats like winning the lottery.....only without all the money.

I think perhaps Sadie's point is that SHE in fact is a cute geeky chick who likes 80s toys and she is in our very midst.

And if that's not her point, then it's mine. :P

Damn straight it does!

I remember that post. Not the topic or the where or the when, or even the name, but I do remember it quite well.

Person started a "I'm new here" topic in GD, got a few replies, mentioned her cat was called OPR, got a few more replies, then just seemed to disappear off into the ether.

Might be worth doing a memberlist check to try and narrow it down a tad.

Having had a brief glance, the only name that seemes to stand out in any way shape or form that could be related to the OPR cat post is of someone called she_ra. But their few posts have been lost in time, so to speak. Nor does it show any location info, which wouldn't be conclusive anyway.

IronHide · Post by **IronHide** » Thu Jun 02, 2005 10:51 pm

Yes! Self-quoting!

But seriously, if she does come back this is gonna look really weird.

We've had worse.

This is TransFans, where the real world gets, err, really real.

Oh jesus you guys. It's nothing to defend, I don't think there's anything wrong with it... I was just saying that I loved it. You're right in everything you're saying about it, I just felt like pointing out that I found it funny.

Actually I've long wished that I'd signed up as a male when it came to messageboards. If I wanted that sort of attention, people would know it.

As it is, I definitely don't so take your point and toss it. All meant nice and polite-like.

And now that Rebis has jogged my memory, I think y'all are right. This all does sound very familiar... but it's bothering me as I don't know whyyyyy. Just... something! Like having a word on the tip of your tongue.

Cool a hot chick, who likes geeky stuff, WITH ATTITUDE to boot

Are you a hot chick, who likes geeky stuff, WITH ATTITUDE to boot, that works with MV's missus in a pub in London and who just happens to have a cat that's named OPR?

I used to go out with a girl that liked James Bond and Starwars, she was great and probably the best looking girl I've ever been out with.
