Edit for Mogical: I always read Stalk as in plant stem!
It's all about the context. Not many plant stems get forced into straitjackets and put in padded cells.

heh, imagining myself in a white padded cell (sound and light proof) was my happy place for many a year.
the other definition definitely fits this thread, v. funny
anyway, I don't want to start another thread but I was just thinking how odd it is that in the 5th Element Leeloo falls for Korben Dallas..I mean it's a bit cheesy and unbelievable..
Anyhow, back to stalking. Some people still claim it could be overcome and cite great experts like How I Met Your Mother etc. I don't consider reading back people's old posts as stalking, I consider that homework. But somewhere else this guy shadedtree was saying how his online dating strategy was to give details on his profile in the hopes that the girls who are interested would stalk him ..i.e. check his email and facebook and his friends and dive into friends pictures and all sorts of things. He made it sound like stalking people is just a normal part of courtship these days. Colour me unsurprised in many ways, but still.. where is the line?
