- How do you feel about this man, in relation to your life? -- nm - con_carne Nov 15, 18:19 18
  - Regardless of how vague you think loosi might be being, she said he "passed"; that sort of gentle phrasing is generally reserved for when one is sad. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 15, 18:48 1
    - *looks down* yeah, clearly few of us are seeing ambiguity here. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 15, 18:49

      - Wtf, dude. -- nm - elf kelly Nov 15, 18:40 10
        
        This guy is meaningless to me unless I know how loosi feels. I'm sorry. -- nm - con_carne Nov 15, 18:45 9
        
        What does it matter to you? It is her friend that passed. I am not sure where you are going with this - amoxy Nov 15, 18:50
        
        "My friend" "Really good guy" -- nm - Roger More Nov 15, 18:47
        
        Her saying he was a good guy should be enough a hint. - Will Hunting Nov 15, 18:47 6
        
        Well, I'm really sorry. I didn't get the hints. -- nm - con_carne Nov 15, 18:55 5
