    For some reason, I don't think I'm ever that person.

    I usually just appear to be offline. Even if I'm not.

    Whenever I'm "away" I'm actually free. I'm only ever unable to talk when I'm on busy.

    If I'm online but away, I am Away. If I'm working, I'm online but Busy. Otherwise I'm either Online or Offline.

    I can't stand the people that LIE. If you don't wanna talk to someone, just block them.

    My messangers are on when my computer is on.

    If I put away status every time I'm away, people would whine 'omg why are you always gone'
    If I don't put away status every time I'm away, people would whine 'omg, why do you never answer!'

    The only solution therefore, is to never be IMed.

    This is one of the reasons I prefer YIM to MSN. I can be visible to the people I wanna talk to, and invisible to others without having to block anyone.

    And yeah, YOU GUYS ARE JERKS AND NEXT TIME I'M GONNA YELL AT EVERYONE WHO'S "BUSY"

    I block everybody except the person I want to talk to. I can't stand having more than one conversation going at once. I don't even know who half the people on my list are anyway.

    I'm always on away. Just cause. If you want to talk to me, talk to me.

    Pretty much the same here. I often forget to change my status. Because of this, I never look at someone's status when I IM them.

    I just use auto-away after 5 minutes of inactivity on my computer. I never remember to change my status normally.

    I have noticed on mine that when I'm using Maya, MSN seems to set its self to busy. Anyone else had this with brograms they use that don't full screen like a video?
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!
