You can't do this online. Sometimes I post something here, and I think I'm being amusing in a cheeky way, and I'm either taken too seriously or ignored completely! But I'm not sure, because of the lack of body language, what the actual reaction has been!

Don't worry about the "Attention seeker? " thing, no harm done there.
