@dekreel *hugs Bobert as he backs away from your wolfish face* He’s only a little boy, and you frightened him! Please be gentle and sweet so he can get to know you.
@seekjustice Ribbit, Ribbit! I object to one of my favorite names sounding like the croak of a frog! Why would they use the letter “r” if they weren’t expecting you to pronounce it?"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
For starters, no self respecting Australian named Robert would actually call himself Robert. It’s either Rob or Bob, but never Robert. So there, the problem is solved.

@seekjustice Robbit the Hobbit. X’D Actually it sounds like a frog.
“Ribbit, ribbited Robbit.”
Frog…… *lightbulb…*
You can pronounce it however you want.
@rochellaine Wha?! He must be really scared then, because I
*gingerly shook Bobert’s hand*
I am being as gentle as a lamb!
*realizes she’s yelling, so she might be scaring Bobert* *sighs frustratedly*
You can pronounce it however you want.
@seekjustice @rochellaine Okay, I gotta scat. Good night! (Or afternoon)
You can pronounce it however you want.
@seekjustice Would a self-respecting Australian call himself anything? Where I come from talking to yourself is considered reasonable cause for being required to see a psychiatrist.
@dekreel Sorry. You can’t expect little boys to become used to your unusual physique immediately. I know what I’ll do! I’ll tell him that if you’re not nice I’ll make you disappear, since I can do that. Then he won’t be afraid.(I’ll just not tell him the part about how I don’t actually plan to make you disappear.)

Where you come from, do you introduce yourself as “Hey, I’m me!”? I should think not 😛

@seekjustice Stop making me laugh! You’re going to wake up my sisters! Then how will I explain to my mom that it was really someone on the other side of the ocean who woke them up?
Actually…yes. I’ve heard the phrase “Hey, I’m me!” a couple of times, I believe. I will admit it’s not common practice. But now that I think of it, probably half of the men I’ve heard introduce themselves will first tell you their full name, then include their nickname, so they would say “Hello! I’m Robert Smith. Call me Rob.”
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
*looks guilty* Sorry…
Its probably the sort of thing I’d say if I got flustered when introducing myself, which happens all the time.
Here you either introduce yourself by your nickname (Hey, I’m Steve or Phil or Tom) if you got a name like that. I usually don’t introduce myself by my nickname (Chel) but that’s what I get called by almost everyone.

@seekjustice It’s only about half and half here. It can also depend on the setting, whether it’s business or casual. My dad’s the only one in the family who has a nickname. 😀
I think I’ll have to go now. Especially since now that I have my little friend Bobert to take care of. It’s definitely got to be past his bedtime! 🙂
See you tomorrow?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
Okay! See you tomorrow! (And you too Bobert. Sleep well).

@dekreel @rochellaine I’m so sorry I couldn’t join you two writing yesterday. I was gone all day and will be most of today too, but I may be on Wednesday or Thursday. I’m on spring break, so doing fun stuff with the fam 🙂

www.jennaterese.com@dekreel @catwing @kaya-young Hello! I’m working. Anyone around the kingdom want to join me? Bobert’s not here, since he’s playing in the snow, but he might join us later. 🙂
