What's your tell?

My char names are usually two girls’ names from random non-English languages.

I do a stupid thing where I reference multiple parts of someone else’s pose, or multiple people’s poses, with “As to Daisy’s comment,” or “Regarding her last point,”.

As to
Regarding
As to
REGARDING

I just noticed I do it and I doubt it bothers anyone else but it sure bothers me

I dooooo this too. I want ppl to know I read their thing!

@tsar

Hurtful. So hurtful.

O-k-a-y

Okay.

So here are some of mine, now that I’ve had time to think on the question:

• Redundancy in words (using them multiple times in the same sentence), typically terms like “also”, “however”, “yet”. “Yet he didn’t blah blah blah yet.”
• I tend to insert dialogue even for characters that are more taciturn by nature. It’s like I can’t get my own characters to shut up, or that a pose (usually) feels incomplete without some form of dialogue.
• OOC Obsessing over specific thoughts or ideas out loud to the point it’s like that therapy scene in Death Becomes Her when the other members start freaking out. I get very attached to some ideas sometimes and it’s extremely difficult to walk away from them.

I’ll never complain about a taciturn character saying something I can respond to lol

Double post - I was going to correct my error in the previous one about not quoting correctly – but I consider it karma for being a jerk.

Mixing tenses? Fuckin’ rude.

Resurrecting an old thread because I am plagued by someone telling me once that they knew a character was me because I posed about thighs. I had forgotten about it, but now that I’m getting back into RP I think about it every single time I pose and wonder if I have a thigh fetish.

[mietze]

@Panic well I’m going to be disappointed if I have a scene with you and you don’t include a thigh or a ham in it.

[Pax]

The verb “cant”.

[shit-piss-love]

The character has obvious character flaws and/or an unpopular perspective.

[sao]

@Pax omg I am always canting my damn head

[hellfrog]

i cant

[KarmaBum]

@Panic IT WASN’T A CRITICISM

[Panic]

@KarmaBum I KNOW. But I think about it still to this day, while I tap my thigh thoughtfully.

But are you wearing thigh high stockings, just to get an extra use of the word thigh in there?
