    Do you ever think about the person you are responding to on a forum? It could be the guy in work who pissed you off today, and lo and behold you are having a great chat on line, maybe even helping him! It could be the ex that cheated on you looking for relationship advice. :eek:

    It could also be an overweight, greasy haired, smoking, sweaty bloke in a poky little flat giving fashion advice!

    Makes ya wonder who is on the other end :cool:

    The only poster I believe really exists is Biggins. He wears a cape and can leap tall buildings in a single bound.

    I could get used to you not being hairy, but it'd really mess up my mental image of you. :(

    I came across a few people in the Know Your Whatever threads in various forums that I knew in real life!

    Be careful when you threaten to burn someone's house down here, it could be your sibling and it could be your own house! :eek:

    You live in an old fashioned thatched sweet shop, surrounded by jars of boiled sweets, a rainbow of colour and lots of marshmallow flogs..right?

    and you own an old fashioned weighing scales

    A few years ago I thought Facebook's "Degrees of Seperation" ap was great. It could get you to anyone in the world almost in 6 links through your friends. Fascinating for about 10 mins.
