You are in party having a purely non sexual conversation when somebody
joins and asks "is anybody horney?"  What do you do?

21 responses total.

(Yes. I'd switch to a closable channel. It's more than likely that
such a joiner wouldn't know what to do.)

 I'd ignore them

Well, I wouldn't answer the question.  Depending on my mood, I'd either
ignore it, ask "Why do you want to know?", or ask "Are you referring to
Karen Horney, the famous but deceased psychologist?"

definitely ignore, this person isn't worth talking to in teh mood they're in.

I'd stare at them until they shuffled away, disconcerted.

(actually, I have a pseudo that I tend to use in such instances.
I let said pseudo write the person, and I usually do nasty things 
that I shouldn't discuss here. Very unfriendly, but in kind.)

Depends on where the coversation went from there. Probably wind up moving
to #Horny_x or something.

Well, you all know me okay by now, and I'm pretty much expected and inclined
to make a smartass response.  =)  One situation came up with those silly
age/sex checks.  They said, "14/male/straight", so I and my friends all said,
"18/female/crooked" or "17/male/zig-zagged".  You get the picture.  Stuff like
that usually discourages the person.  =)

(20/male/limp  8*)

(19/male/Do you really wnat to know?)

Ignore them...

well it depends is this person male gay and attractive or female strait and
atrractive if either of two senareos then I'd probably say something that
wouldn't get me anywhere like "just looking at you turns me on" or "ooooo me
me me" if they were repulsive or didn't like males I would tell them sorry
I'm not YOUR type but thanks anyway

<marian wonders how you know how attractive a person is in party>

        I thought you said *a* party ... 
 
        Party, now that's different.

        :s filter="grep -v '^logname:|^<logname'"
 
        That's what I'd do.

good point, val... I don't remember what the original question was, or i'd
say more....

thanks. :) 

Answer tactfully

So much usually goes on in party it wouldn't be hard to ignore one line.
