Napoleon wasn't short - His legendary shortness was simply the result of a bad French to English translation.

mon petit chou here is Napoleon on wiki:
"Many historians have recently argued that, contrary to popular belief, Napoleon was not short as often depicted in popular culture. Although historians disagree on Napoleon’s precise height, it has been suggested that he was actually slightly taller than the average early 19th century Frenchman.[31] Some historians claim the French emperor's height was recorded as 5 ft 2 in French units, corresponding to 1.68 meters or 5 ft. 6 in Imperial units. A French inch was 2.71 centimetres while an Imperial inch is 2.54 centimetres.[32] The metric system was introduced during the French First Republic, but was not in widespread use until after Napoleon's death. Other historians reject this claim, pointing out it is unlikely that Napoleon was measured with a French yardstick after his death. Napoleon was under British control on St. Helena, and was almost certainly measured with a British yardstick, which would suggest that the measurement of 5 ft 2 in is accurate.[33]

Napoleon's nickname of le petit caporal may add to the confusion, as non-Francophones may mistakenly interpret petit by its literal meaning of "small"; in fact, it is an affectionate term reflecting on his camaraderie with ordinary soldiers (for example, petit ami means "boyfriend" in French, petite amie means "girlfriend," and mon petit chou ["my little cabbage"] is a term of affection). He also surrounded himself with the soldiers of his elite guard, who were usually six feet or taller."

So Napoleon was taller than me. :D

I don't have problems coming across as dominant, I only don't come across as a dominant secretary type.... ;)

Whether he was 5'2" or 5'6", he was still shorter than I am. :p

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

Common misconception about Napolean. He was actually quite tall in stature but quite short elsewhere.

Don't hold back ....

Of course not, I'm not a phony saying certain things because it's the proper thing to do. What? Why? Because you like it means I have to? Pleaseeee!!!

Why of course people in formal wear look very nice and sexy with animal tails sticking out their asses and animal ears on their heads. Damn, what's gotten into me? I should of known better. And of course it's not about sex with many people either, not animals and sex. That's why they don't sell sex items for furries and such in sl, right? And I'm being utterly sarcastic in case you haven't noticed.

Furries are furries and nekos are different but only in a certain way, it still deals with animals no matter how you want to put it. Don't try to seperate the two and certainly don't try to sugarcoated either. The tails and ears are of animals, period.

As far as it being sl and people doing whatever they liked, I'm aware of that. And these being forums I can come and say what I did in op and now.

Yes, I been here a while and no I never cared enough to mention it before. So what? I'm mentioning it now. And?

WOW! I must of really hit a nerve, lol, this is too funny. TOO BAD! Get over it. It looks lame and stupid, period. You shouldn't care what I think as I certainly don't care you don't like what I said. And judging my all the responses I certainly got under the skin of some of you, but is that human or animal skin?

(paraphrased to save room) blah blah blah


Wow - hateful AND ignorant. There may be no saving you, Cole. All the things you are saying are true when applied to you. Get over it; because you like things a certain way doesn't mean anyone else has to, etc.

You claim "utter sarcasm", and I suppose in your own little world you're probably succeeding, but in reality it comes off as petty, cruel, and spiteful, not sarcastic. Why would you even attempt sarcasm, anyway, if not to hurt others? In fact, what was the point of your post if not to hurt others?

Don't go getting all defensive like you did in your reply post. It doesn't help your case at all. You're acting like a little kid. Did a neko steal your lunch money or something? What have these people done to hurt you.

Seriously. If you're over the age of about 12, you ought to be able to take an objective look at what you've posted and realize that the tone you chose and the aggressiveness of your response were completely out of line and served no purpose other than to be intentionally petty and hurtful to others.

You didn't hurt me much, but I think there are people here to whom you owe an apology.

Okay, then I hereby generally declare your avatar looks lame and stupid too. Same reasoning.

Edit: TROUT, I want to adopt you! :)

I think we should have a Trout is our Hero party! All neko can come from far and give him gifts of fish, mousies, balls of string, and other treasured neko items. ;-)

As an aside, I don't think a neko stole the OP's lunch money, I think a neko stole one of his blonde human girlfriends away from him.

Ohh, my bad!

yay!

man... the OP I think is in love with Nekos and he's just in denial. I bet he's a secret furry in denial and hates being attracted to our little butts accentuated by our flicking tails, our little faces framed by flicking ears, and the POWER OF CUTENESS rules all.

*grin*

/this post is satire and should be taken as such.
