Right. That's what fantASTic was saying. I get it, but it's different.

I think it is a bit odd to have someone who is sort of a member, but not really - it's kind of like being a "little" pregnant. To me, you either are or are not. You don't "know" what you know about the baby at 8 months when you are only 6 weeks along, but at both stages, you are pregnant.

The ole "different strokes" cliche.
LOL @ being a little pregnant. I was thinking of it like an engagement/marriage. Yes, there's obviously a bond there if you're married. Yes, you can try to behave like you're married. But you don't get the "perks" of marriage and can't really say you've experienced "married life" until you're actually married.

They're not sort of members -- just non-members
