I've reached some kind of a milestone...
25 of my last 30 posts have gone completely ignored. Did I step in some freep offal?

:shrug:

(Oh, and somewhere along the way, I stopped noticing my post count and quietly passed 500. Yay, me.) :)

3. Nah, it happens. Some days i'm on a roll and almost all of mine
are answered. Other days, I'm lucky if I get one or two replies. Don't worry about it, it happens to us all . . . with a few exceptions.

7. congrats on 500!
Da chimperor is right, happens to all of us. Sometimes i post great threads that get ignored, other times i post crappy or stupid threads and they get lots of replies and vise-versa. depends on the mood of the lounge. :-)

butt, but is never around when you rescue the cat from the tree. Um, in a manner of speaking.

20. Yeah, I'm like that. I have this great flurry of posts for a while,
on different forums, then I just mysteriously decide not to post. Rumors start flying about my having been killed in a tragic hunting accident in upstate New York. Then I show back up and submit a another flurry. Strange.

35. Ha. I am just scratching at the door.
I chose Put Out for my name because...alcohol may have been involved. Also, when I finally registered here, I felt put out of my party, put out of my rightfully elected President, and "put out" is the polite euphemism for PISSED OFF, in my neck of the woods.

I had forgotten the sexual connotation. Honest.

So are you going to make a real boy out of me? That's going to take a lot of doing.

40. Oh dear. My German is for shit.
Does "Der Blaue Engel" mean "the Blue Angel"? First I thought of Marlene Dietrich, spelling still not right, and then the blue angel from the Pinocchio story; she would make him a real boy. My mind makes strange connections sometimes. Yes, I am a very fake boy. I wouldn't fool a soul. You are a funny person. Create the one eyebrow raised smiley.

How's your count now?
Kim

44. I believe you mean your German is for scheiße
;)

Yes, The Blue Angel is one of Marlene Deitrich's early films, a Josef von Sternberg film that launched her career, where she sang "Falling in Love Again" in top hat and garters.

And I love the Pinocchio blue fairy, but she is a fairy and not an angel. :) Don't worry, my mind makes strange connections too. Usually I say funny, clever things known only to me, and chuckle to myself until people begin to move carefully away from me.

How's my...oh, my COUNT. Thank goodness. Well, since I'm posting nearly round the clock in an apparent effort to get tombstoned for being too wakeful, my count is hurtling toward 600 at a breakneck speed.

BTW, I haven't met too many boys, real or otherwise, named Kim, but I have a cousin named Kim. (I'm betting you're not him.)

29. maybe its just no one likes you
Just kidding!!! If you ever crave someone responding to your posts, start controversial thread in GD. I'll give you a topic I've been saving for when I need attention. If men are required to pay child support, shouldn't women be required to have the man's consent before getting an abortion? Shouldn't men be able to "abort" the child from their life for their own reasons?

I have no sympathy for dead beat dads. But once in a while it is fun to start trouble just for the fun of it.
