How do you refer to Museum people when talking to someone NOT from M.M. ?

[David Lee]

" I know this guy..."

Naw I ususally refer to you as friends or a "buddy of mine"... I too consider many peeps here good friends and buds... besides I get so much scoop on toys, comics, movies and general Pop culture here that it comes up allot. "I heard there was gonna be..." "whered you here that?", "a buddy of mine on-line"

Oh, GEEZ enough with the "ladies" malarkey already.

Get a freakin' room!

[D!n0-M@n]

I like to refer to eveyone as a friend, no matter if I know them personally and we actually hang out or if I only hang out with them via message boards like here. I try to consider eveveryone a great person, and good friend. Besides pretty much everyone out here is so cool, nice, talented, and helpful.

I agree. Nicely put.

I have a couple friends that are semi comic geeks and all are around the same age so I speak about the museum with alot of people

My wife refers to the MM as "the toy room". When referring to this message board to folks outside the toy loop I usually call it the "toy forum" or something to the effect.....

I usually refer to the board as "the message board". No need to make a distinction in my case since this is the only board in which I participate.

In that context, I will say, "One of Dudes on the message board...." or "the Folks over at the message board..." or "my Friend "x" from the message board".

I share interesting opinions and tidbits from our back and forths with my friends. While they tolerate my Mego habits and have about zero interest in that, they do find some of the pop-culture and 70's recollections to be kind of fun. I turned one of my friends on to Plaid Stallions and he is a regular reader and a big fan of the Blog.

It's the quality that counts, not the quantity....

Nice edit of my post

In the context of my original post you took that from,
I explained that I was ALSO referring to THEM (the girls)
when using the term "guys"---as people often do when referring
to groups of mixed genders.

Geez---don't you white knights have
wives or gfs at HOME to suck up to?

I remember that there are females here...albeit about
10% of our membership give or take

When referring to gropus of people of mixed sexes....it's
common to refer to that group as "the guys" regardless
of the technicalities involved.

I figured that's what you meant. Just pointing it out to anyone out there that wasn't aware is all.

[huedell]

Don't forget there's plenty of classy gals here too!

Once by accident I refered to em as "guys at the Museum" and then
I realized that even tho' they had no idea who I was talking about,
it DID make me sound classy by hanging out with guys at a museum
---like Frasier or Dr. H. Jones
