Am I the only one that feels like DU is just ready to explode?

[sasquatch]

Here's what will happen:
-Indictments will come down= DU goes to level 15 apeshit crazy in which the mods will pull out the riot gear and calm down.

[In_The_Wind]

1. That about sums it up ...

[sasquatch]

2. It's going to look like a combination of Mardi Gras and the movie Slapshot

:party:

[In_The_Wind]

5. I'll sit back in my computer chair, put my feet up and lurk!

[Redneck Socialist]

21. LOL! That's the perfect description.

:bounce: :toast:

[Az]

3. Meditate upon this

[southlandshari]

4. We're ready.

Believe me. We're ready.



Doesn't mean we won't welcome citizen assistance, mind you.

Hint: find the alert button now. Practice walking away from the computer for a few minutes. About the time it takes for a bag of microwave you-know-what to pop.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

6. Somebody better check in with Crazy Guggenheim. He's in

charge of the popcorn supply! We're gonna need a lot of it!

:popcorn:

[bliss_eternal]

7. Save some for me....

I just want to kick back and watch it all!

:popcorn:

[SeattleGirl]

8. Will do!

:popcorn:

[Az]

11. Ohoh

I saw him running around with a whole heck of a lot of tin foil and a bunch of space heaters. I think he is up to something.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

15. I'm here. I'm ready for the brawl! I've got the supplies! Coffee,

pastries, cigars and ......... :popcorn:

[SeattleGirl]

23. I knew you would have everything in order!!

:popcorn:

[sundog]

13. shari

that outfit doesn't become you

[southlandshari]

24. Oh dear. This won't do!

Could you please be the you-know-what guy for this you-know-what girl and make another suggestion?

I do so hate to wander into the fray of flamewars inappropriately dressed!

;)

[sundog]

26. leg warmers fer sure

:thumbsup:

[southlandshari]

28. Anything else?

Or do you think that's enough?



:evilgrin:

[sundog]

31. yes, just leg warmers & pumps

nothing else

[terrya]

36. You have my best wishes, of course! :-)

I'm thinking this could be the biggest single event ever at Democratic Underground. Even bigger, in terms of sheer traffic, than Katrina or the election.

I'll make your job less stressful. :loveya:

[Bullwinkle925]

9. don't know about DU - but I'M ready to explode with this waiting.

Good Grief.

[tyedyeto]

10. At least we're not at each other's throats and for that reason

I don't think it's ready to explode. More people posting...sure. But in a good way.

Hopefully the plan Skinner et al have put into place will keep the place going without it going apeshit.

[the_spectator]

12. I hope the plan will work too,

but I can see things develop where Skinner will have to split GD into three forums rather than just two: lets say the indictments are "ONLY" for perjury and obstruction, but no underlying crime. We may need two additional forums then, not just one - GD:CIA Leak Case/Warm Fuzzies for people who just want to celebrate the indictments of Fitzmas, and GD:CIA Leak Case/Fights and Acrimony for people who want to bemoan the fact that with just perjury and obstruction, Bush will get away with it, he'll never be impeached, we'll never gain traction for the '06 Midterms, and Fitzgerald was a Rovian plant all along. As well as for other people who want to fight with them.

[tyedyeto]

16. That could happen but right now everything is...

pure speculation.

[libodem]

14. it really is kinda like Christmas

that exciting feeling of not being able to go to bed on x-mas eve and fall asleep because of the anticipation of presents under the tree, in the morning.

[derby378]

17. Grab a margarita and put your feet up...

...but don't get too comfy. Chances are you've got a candlelight vigil to go to on Wednesday night.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

18. GD is so tense right now.

[JVS]

19. When DU hits level 20 the software automatically bans all users...

every message is deleted and everything starts over.

[BamaLefty]

20. Well,

that's what we're all hoping for! :D

[mvd]

22. I've been excited, too

And a little bit anxious, but from what I'm hearing, there WILL be indictments - so I feel better.

Knowing my fellow mods, I am confident that DU is ready. :hi:

[indigo32]

30. We're ready

:thumbsup:

:hi:

[Wapsie B]

25. Sounds about right.

Defcon 1, Red Alert!

I just wanna see some justice done. We'll make it through any bumps in the road here.

[bridgit]

27. that sounds right to me...

:popcorn:

[Rabrrrrrr]

29. Level 15 - when the only thing open is "Groups: Line Dancing"

and the only thing we're allowed to post are diacriticals.

[southlandshari]

32. Holy shit!

:spray:

[Rabrrrrrr]

33. LOL!

I'm glad I could give you a laugh.

:rofl:

[southlandshari]

34. ....

I'm glad, too!

:rofl:

I'm going to try to save some of that laugh for the next few days, in case things do get as crazy around here as we all expect!

:pals:

[sasquatch]

35. ...

:rofl:

[Blue-Jay]

37. No worries.

[sasquatch]

38. You might need a the BFG if it gets really bad
