Grex Scruples Item 18: The pseudo
Entered by carson on Wed Jun 29 06:42:34 UTC 1994:

(while using a party program, you notice someone you know... using a
pseudo to flirt with other partygoers.)

(do you blow their cover?)

that depends on the person, and what s/he is saying.  probably not.

No, I wouldn't do anything unless I thought someone was going to get hurt.

Since I have a terrible mean streak, I'd probably bring it up sideways --

        "Gee, I wish <son'so> were here.  S/he could really stand to take
some lessons from you, <pseudo>.

A gotcha for the pseudo, without spoiling the fun.

<blush>  Why, thank you, Valerie!  (How much do I owe you?)  ;)

#3 is Misti's idea of mean. I found it delightful.

I'd probably do something similar to #3... unless of course he
or she asked me not to reveal their psuedo (hey, its happened)

I like #3, though now we'll all know what it means if somebody uses it in
party.

I'd make snide comments to the pseudo to let 'em know I knew.  But I'd keep
it at a level where only the pseudo would "get it", to avoid embarrassment.
I'd have some fun sith that knowledge.  Like #3.

I would probably have a nervous breakdown, resulting in a 7 year vodka binge.

I would string them out, and then reveal their dirty secret, leaving them
twisting in the wind.

No, not unless I thought someone would get hurt.
