Hello. I'm Barriss Offee. I'll be direct, I'm here to make friends. Or try to. Success would be preferable. I was directed to this network as a possible resource for making friends. If this interests you, please respond.

But, please no dick pics. They will not be welcomed.

Usually making friends is a more organic sort of thing.

That’s probably true for those blessed with charisma. But I was told in my last employee evaluation that my interpersonal communication skills are abysmal. I have to make up the difference somehow.

Well, lets start with the basics ;)

What sort of work do you do?

I’m a surgeon, in the third year of my residency at the University of California.

Is it proper internet etiquette to now ask you what sort of work you do?

Irvine campus? Santa Barbara? So you're a doctor.

Yes and no, but it's a good starting point for a conversation. Or if you notice something about someone, that might indicate a shared interest.

Los Angeles.

Why yes and no?

Mostly it seems like netiquette is a dying concept.

Netiquette? That is a great made up word. I laughed at that.

Important question.

Did you snortlaugh?

What? Why?

[info]ahsoka_tano

because it's cute

No reason.

Try asking me a few questions?

Okay.

What work do you do?

I help people. Homeless mostly at the moment, but I also do volunteer work at a local library.

Do you work at a non-profit?

Good guess! It's a lot better than my old job.

What was your old job?

The kind of job that makes one go dark side requires a great deal of patience. Technical Support for a local cable company.

Oh that would be the worst kind of job. I wouldn't last a day.

It was really frustrating and not very zen

Are you a Buddhist?

I grew up as one.

That's interesting. I grew up Catholic. What's it like?

I'm pretty sure my dad has forgiven me for having to move to a meat-based diet.

It was pretty quiet, mostly. Just me and him. He's a caretaker at a temple.

Does that make your dad a monk?

Yeah, he is.

Buddhist monks can have children? They're not like catholic priests?

Many can, it depends on the country. But I was adopted.

I did not know that. Sorry if that was intrusive.

It wasn't intrusive.

This has gotta be the worst 'please be my friend' request I've ever seen.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That's rude.

Ain't it supposed to be rude to call people rude?

Not if the first offense warrants it.

And here I thought rude was just rude no matter what. But you probably know best.

This is not helpful. Thank you for your few responses, but I don't need any more of your time.

Yeah, I bet there's a lot of people who hoped it was that easy to get rid of me.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That presupposes that I "have" you in some way, which is a proposition that I reject.
