I also wish Pesondude would come back, and Kennnneth (or however he spelled his name ) We follow eachother on the Strava. Edit: I follow MTBC on the Strava too but she doesn't post.

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted February 16, 2022 Share #10 Posted February 16, 2022 I was fine with BCC Cycling. It was her birthday recently and for an imaginary friend in a data center, she seems like a nice person. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only know most of y’all through interactions through a Loudoun County data center. I’ve met a few real people over the years but most I only know electronically via posts and discussions. Feels imaginary to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zealot Posted February 16, 2022 Share #16 Posted February 16, 2022 I met you, @Old No. 7, you’re real. It was very cool. I guess that makes me real by association?. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very cool. 😊 In my context, imaginary doesn’t mean a person does not exist, or that we are not real friends. It refers to the fact that we interact online. It’s a nice thing to be able to do that. Back in the 60’s, the concept didn’t exist other than pen pals and written correspondence. It’s interesting to observe the changes we’ve seen over the years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphie ★ Posted February 16, 2022 Author Share #18 Posted February 16, 2022 My favourite word for us is ethereal. Plus it is a damn fun word both to read and pronounce. Seems very apropos to me. Of course imaginary is more playful and funny. I thought of ephemeral too but that falls a little short. Virtual seems wrong since you can take it to mean “almost” instead of computerized. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
