Guess I could show her all of them - except the one about the Jar Jar Brinks \ Kirk \ Thrawn threesome.

First off, my mother hates computers so I wouldn't have much of a problem. Secondly, she's not interested in anything that's posted here. Thirdly, I wouldn't show her anything. Hell, I won't show my husband over half of what I post.

I may show her a few per cent (ie. less than 20, perhaps including a few movie-themed surveys, etc). The problem is, if your post count is as high as 10,000 (like IG-88), then even 1% still means 100 posts.

Furthermore, if she clicks onto your profile, and then clicks onto "read all posts by ________", she will have reverse chronologically ordered access to everything you have ever written here.

I sincerely hope that none of you have a post along the lines of "HEY GUYS!!! I REALLY LIKE PUSSYCAT WOMEN!!! PUSSYCAT WOMEN WITH BIG FURRY HOOTERS AND LONG TAILS!!!!! GRRRRRROOWWWWRRRRR!!!!"

Not that I would write anything like that. Oh no.

Put simply, MY MOTHER CAN BITE MY ASS. I am an adult, and I don't need to show her anything. (ANd half of it or more her eyes would bug out.. not to mention that's 9000 posts to go through...)

My mother would be bored to tears by my stuff in SLAM, Politics, and the sci-fi forums and horrified by a good deal of my posts in Off Topic, and on top of that I'd be afraid that she'd be regularaly logging into SDnet to see what I was saying after that. She sees nothing.

None of it. You could never be too careful - after all, Wong might come up with one of his usual commentaries about anal sex in response to a half-assed hit-and-miss joke.... :twisted:

Meh, she could see anything she wanted; I don't care. She'd probably applaud anything I've had to say, even the sexy stuff. *shrugs* It's whatev.

I've always wanted to go to Antarctica, though... Can I pick that one even though it doesn't match my answer? :D

There's nothing here that I'm afraid of my mom seeing.

Anything in the SWvsST, PSW, PST, and OSF is fine. But my OT shenanigans would probably disturb her. So, most of posts would be excessible.

my mom is over 18. she can read everything she likes to. from the slam forum to the BotM forum. she´d probably be bored to death in the science fiction fori but i don´t have any posts there anyway. the porn and weird sex related posts she´d probably comment with a whole bunch of :roll: :roll: :roll:

Only the posts that:

-Are free of obscenities
-Do not involve sex, pornography, or any of that stuff
-She would understand. None of those posts that involve something that she'd ask questions to me about


With those requirements in mind, I'd say a few hundred of my posts would be suitable for her to view.

It doesn't matter since she can't read English well.

Perhaps some versus debates, or some SW stuff, or the gaming forum.

Absolutely nothing else. Most of the off-topic stuff would make her mind boggle, and since she's a pretty devout Christian, she wouldn't take too well to me putting the Good Book down all the time. :P

Oh, hell no. I keep this stuff way the fuck away from her, even if it's only so she won't tell dad...

My mother? If she comes in, I switch over to a sci-fi forum.

Ditto for my father. Where he to read half the stuff in Politics, he would take up a mighty lance and skewer half the board.
