Holy cow, I've got a STAR next to my name! |
|
I just noticed it when I posted to something over on GD.
Thing is, I didn't do it. Which means, of course, that some other kind DUer did it for me. And to that unknown angel, I can only offer my sincerest thanks and gratitude.
*sniff* I'm getting all verklempt here. You people are the greatest. *sniff*

...although I wonder if whoever did it just read that post I where I mentioned that I might post a poll on "How Great is Barry Manilow" and wanted to whomp me upside the head when I did it. (I know, paranoia seeping again...)

11. I'm sure you're not the only one |

But at least I didn't wax poetic about the cosmic significance of Ben and Jennifer and/or the Essene Scrolls! :evilgrin:

I just flit around between LBN, GD, and the Lounge, interjecting smarmy, smartass one-liners here and there (like Johnny Appleseed). Maybe there's someone out there who likes smarmy, smartass one-liners?

12. Thank you. It's all in the mix, perhaps. |

80% = trashing MF and everything he stands for, 10% = mild cheerleading and issuing caveats about overconfidence, 10% = really stupid but innocuous stuff, 10% = trenchant commentary, 5% = math and statistical lessons ------- 115%
Plus, I'm just a wonderful person and everyone trusts me. O8) Now, about that land in Florida I have for sale...

Which is being one of, if not the greatest, threadkillers around. It helps keep the boards clean for new stuff.

was that they give you a star if you make some really good posts. Then I discovered that stars were for sale just like everything else. Okay, maybe I do not have a star, but I did get a letter from James Carville today, and I have a DU bumper sticker. Now, if I only had a working car, or at least a driver - that would be a start towards being a star.

14. A star for good posts? |
|
If that were the case, I'm afraid I'd have to look down to look up. I, too, hope to have a DU bumpersticker one day -- but I suppose I'll have to get a car first (which means I'd have to have a job, which means MF will have to be out of office, and it won't matter because WillPitt is going to put out a contract on me anyway because of the Barry Manilow thing, which means I guess I'll just hang around until... 'scuse me, there's someone knocking at the door...)

And I promise to remain the smarmy, smart-ass person I've always been. This will not change me one bit, no sir. You may now kiss my ring. :-)
