For a long while now, ever since the famous 'Babies in Boxes' episode, Andia Apollo has been subjected to a never ending stream of 'Stop to sell $thing in boxes', and for the most part she' taken it in great humour.

So, let's all hear it for one of the least dramatic people in Second Life.

Hugz to Andi - a lady with a huge sense of humor and gigantic kind heart.

I agree. Andie has shown herself to be both kind and gentle. Yay Andie!

Actually, I don't like to think of her as being subjected to anything untoward.
I like to think of her as the inventor of the SL forum catchphrase. :D

I've never met Andie, but she seems to be the type of person, that if I met her, afterwards I'd say, "Now, she's a total sweetheart".

Andie, I know English isn't your first language, and you speak (heh, and type) English about 10 times better than I speak Russian or Japanese or Tagalog. Just the way that it was slightly mis-phrased, though, was thoroughly funny. It's kind of like, "All your bases are belong to us!"

You've weathered all the "babies in boxes" references remarkably well. It's not so much that people are poking fun at you when they latch on to this, it's more like you've created something that's grown bigger than you ever could have imagined. Like a baby. A box-baby.

Apologies for my past references to the "babies in boxes", and for my inevitable future ones.

If you need lessons on how to act like a lady, talk to Andie. She's definately my pick for Ms. Secondlife.

I've never met Andie, but I love her. I always feel bad when I make "box" jokes... but I can't help it! They tickle me so! I've even done it IRL occasionally, and people look at me *really* weird. :o
