OK, Redqueen called me ugly, and Debi just said I was an onion in a cup.

And what the heck does 'onion in a cup' mean?

Maybe it's a compliment...

from Collected Poems by Alfred Noyes

Ah Didymus hast thou won indeed
That Paradise which is thy meed
Thy tale not all that run may read
. . Thy sweet hath now no leaven
Now like an onion in a cup
Of mead thou liest for Jove to sup
Could Polyphemus lift thee up
. . With Titan hands to heaven

[Lady Freedom]

9. OMG!

3. Look, I only told you out of friendship.

Your onion-cupness was getting on several people's nerves...they just were afraid to say something to you about it. :eyes: You should see some of the PMs I've received! :wow:

Don't blame the messenger!
