I am the red headed step- child of the DU Lounge.
Nobody...I repeat...Nobody can kill a thread as quickly as me.

That's a fact.

Any questions?

6. I believe there are quite a few red-headed step-children.
I have started threads with perfectly good, fun questions that sink like stones, while others start silly copycats that rack up a brazilian responses.

I guess it's because I'm not part of any of the lounge cliques. :shrug:

12. I think that's the problem with me.
I'm not in "with the in crowd".

Obviously I am witty, charming, and smart.

There could be no other explanation. B-)

8. I don't get replies
:shrug:

If not for a few of people here, I would be mostly ignored. It's especially touching when everyone in a thread gets replied to except for you. Ouch.

:nopity: <----for me I'm feeling particularly whiny today.

9. No way... I am the thread assassin
Edited on Fri Oct-13-06 10:50 AM by BigMcLargehuge
I'm like the Typhoid Mary of threads, I'm the Uwe Boll Film Festival of threads, I'm the Keanu Reaves as a romantic lead of threads, I'm the Former Menudo Member who isn't Ricky Martin Embarks on a Solo Career or threads, I am the Katie Couric as evening news anchor of threads, I am the iceberg to the titanic of threads, I am the 1980's Chevy Nova of threads...

14. Do you like chewy food?
Like bagels? Or fried chicken gizzards? English muffins, even? Squid, too... what're those called? Oh yeah, calimari.

Some people don't, but I do.

19. post a thread about Eve Ensler
or any other female/feminist playwright/peformer - that's a pretty good thread killer right there as I found out this am. You have my sympathy. :)
