fandomhigh | Computers & Fun #7 7/5 Wednesday Afternoon

The lab coats were not hanging by the door of the lab. They were folded in front of Abby at the front desk and she sat quietly as everyone came in and took their seats.

"Today is our last day of class, although feel free to sign up for my class next term. We'll be covering different territory." Abby clicked a button on her own laptop and the projection screen behind her lit up with a flash. "Today we're going to talk about the human side of internet safety. We've already gotten our computers safe from viruses, trojans and other baddies with our firewalls, but now we need to work on something harder. Putting a firewall up against people."

Abby walked around and sat on the edge of the desk, her hands moving quickly as she spoke. "I'm not trying to scare you or anything, but I totally am going to. There are very scary people out there and they will try and trick you to letting them find out everything they can about your personal life. Sometimes they want the information to wheedle you out of money or property, other times they want the info because they want to get close to you. Really, really gross kind of close. The kind of close where you share bodily fluids." There was a quick shudder and then Abby was back on task. "Stalkers are bad. The only way to learn how to combat them is by ~~CONSTANT VIGILANCE~~ learning what they're like and what tricks they use. That's why this afternoon we're going to stalk each other."

"Everyone sign onto a chatroom and start talking each other up, getting to know each other. Half of you will be creepy stalkers and the other half will be victims. Try not to let any personal information slip out!" Abby grinned. "And when you're finished, I've got a present for you."

[14:06] Zacharina: But then they wouldn't be a *guy* with breasts, just a hermaphrodite, and it's perfectly normal for hermaphrodites to have breasts.

[14:07] CleverRed: I guess you've got a point.
[14:07] CleverRed: OH! Is this like a Frankenstein thing?

[14:08] Zacharina: No, I'm pretty sure that they guys with breasts are reanimated corpses with criminal brains.

[14:09] CleverRed: Also football players.

[14:10] Zacharina: But wouldn't the breasts interfere with their playing?
[14:10] Zacharina: With the jiggle-factor and all.

[14:11] CleverRed: Duct tape.

[14:12] Zacharina: I suppose that would work.
[14:12] Zacharina: Not that I've ever taped myself up or anything.

[14:13] CleverRed: Sounds painful.
[14:13] CleverRed: Dude.

[ooc: but of course!]

[14:14] Zacharina: Especially if it got stuck to your chest hair.
[14:14] Zacharina: Even thought I personally do not have chest hair.
[14:15] Zacharina: Because girls don't have chest hair, and I am one.

[14:16] CleverRed: Personally I am like a shag carpet.
[14:16] CleverRed: For I am a guy.

[14:17] Zacharina: Good.
[14:17] Zacharina: Since chest hair on a girl would be slightly disturbing.

[14:18] CleverRed: True
[14:18] CleverRed: Good thing I am a guy
[14:18] CleverRed: Dude.

[14:19] Zacharina: A guy with breasts?

Zack stared at his fingers.

[14:20] CleverRed: NO!
[14:20] CleverRed: No breasts here!
[14:20] CleverRed: Only guy parts!
[14:21] CleverRed: And beer. Which I also like, because I am male.
[14:21] CleverRed: Yay also for the watching of the sports.

[14:22] Zacharina: Oh, I like sports.
[14:22] Zacharina: Even thought I am a girl, and thus laboring under the stereotype that girls do not like sports because that might damage our nails.

[14:23] CleverRed: Girls could like sports!
[14:23] CleverRed: Possibly!
[14:23] CleverRed: Not that I'd know since I'm a guy!

[14:24] Zacharina: Girls do to like sports!
[14:24] Zacharina: For I am a girl who likes sports!
[14:24] Zacharina: Especially bask-soccer!

[14:25] CleverRed: Is that soccer with snakes?

Zack flailed.

[14:26] Zacharina: Yes, yes it is.

[14:27] CleverRed: How do the snakes kick?

[14:28] Zacharina: Oh, they mostly just head the ball.

[14:29] CleverRed: That makes sense.
[14:29] CleverRed: Do the other players get jealous because it's easy for the snakes not to use their hands?

[14:30] Zacharina: Actually, both teams are made up of snakes, so there's no real conflict there.
[14:31] Zacharina: The main problem comes when they need to travel to tournaments.
[14:31]Zacharina: Most airlines won't take them.
