lauralhSo I was talking with one of the Romanians about Catwoman, and he mentioned that she once had a stalker. And not only she, but many other women he knew, had had stalkers. He actually claimed that "every woman" he knew had had a stalker, and I was rather quick to point out that I never had.
How come I never had any stalkers? Well, first of all I think it's because I'm always more interested than the guy is. But even more than that, I kept saying "These girls need to learn how to say fuck off and die if they want a guy to leave them alone." And FS said "I can just see you saying that." But truth of the matter is, I never did. I've never had it said to me either, because I can take slightly less subtle hints. But I know that a lot of people can't, so you need to be more direct. And so I said this.
But still, never really explained why I didn't even have stalkers in the first place. So then talking to Jim, of course, brought in another point of view.
"It's about whether, if you have a stalker, you'll be pitifully standing there, quaking and telling him to go away in a tremulous little voice - or giving him the cold eye and thoughtfully contemplating same-day shotgun purchases at Wal-Mart. The latter type don't GET stalkers... I mean I never even actually STALKED you, and you successfully got me to leave you the fuck alone, back when you were in NC."
