Dysig ond unsnottor

As [profile] gryphonvere, my Canadian alter ego, can easily tell you, I traditionally have no tolerance for soppiness. Very matter-of-fact person, I am. With high standards regarding praise literature.
However, my brain has been eaten by PinkNFluffies. I am right ashamed of myself. Ic, dysig ond unsnottor, am gleeing over this, despite the fact that it is incomprehensible to me, and probably terribly written as well.

[profile] goblinpaladin , meanwhile, should be commended for this novel way of memorising gramatical structures. I, when preparing my french exam, wrote a series of short exercises about students failing exams. He writes me letters in Latin! *glees*

mea mellita ami,

ego amo te. novisti me amam te. hoc per gestum et tactum et aspectum
factum erat. dicimus. dicimus nimis, si quid. et nunc amor est.

felicior est te amatoris. cum dico velle manere te, id in animo
habere. stultam est! scio illud. sed volo esse te. ego amo te.

hic amor nos vicit. is nostrae turres et propugnaculo ballistis
delevit, et oppida nostrarum animarum. potvisti non repugnare.

si quid evenerit, erimus bene. erimus una. barbari mei mali imperium
nostri amoris viceru
nt non1. habemus inter se, et illud satis est.

depereo te, mea ami. femina optima es, omnum feminae,

tuus brenton.

1: i am instructed to correct that sentence with: barbari mei mali imperium
nostri amoris non vincient.
But i like his grammar faulty.

 No one who actually reads Latin is allowed to give me a translation before B does. Bablefish offerings and general mockery are both welcome.

You know me; anything for a larf. Especially for Latin-enthusiasts :)

haha! Um, I don't know about complaining that no one notices I'm gay, but I have said that I suspect females don't always realise (with the obvious implications), and sometimes I half-jokingly suggest that maybe female-types think I'm gay while male-types think I'm straight, hence the lack of flirting aimed in my general direction (at least as far as I'm aware). And I've complained that people claim to "just know" without any reasoning sometimes, when I don't think I'm particularly camp or anything, which is, more than anything, frustrating.

However, it would seem that my tastes do not run towards the right gentlemen. That's three complete failures now. Well, one failure that ended up with us becoming even better friends, but one failure that is still confusing because he occasionally comes on to me but actually says that it means nothing (and it reeeeaaaally doesn't mean anything), and one failure-to-even-know-the-guy random. It does not bode well for the gentlemen. Perhaps they are, in fact, not gentlement.

definitely not true gentlemen, if they are failing to appreciate your charms, m'dear David.
