Everyone who does not have me on ignore..

[Sapphocrat]

...please reply to this post.

"I love you!" would be fabulous, but even a "Fuck you, I hate you!" reply will do.

Thanks!

4. OK...

One multiple thumbs-down / "I beat you, scum!" is something.

[Angry Dragon]

6. That is known as tough love

[Sapphocrat]

8. If I wanted tough love...

...I'd go back to Catholic school! Aaargh! Geez! Here come the Nun Flashbacks again...!

[davsand]

2. Why would anyone put you on ignore?

You have always been nice to me. Can't imagine anybody feeling a need to ignore you.


:shrug:




Laura

[Sapphocrat]

7. Why? Because of my thread-killing superpowers.

And you... YOU... You are an absolute sweetheart, hands-down. I'm series. ;)

[denbot]

121. Pffft..

"thread-killing superpowers".. I killed teh Kudzu thread..

[RagAss]

3. Checking in.

[Sapphocrat]

10. RagAss, I don't think we've ever been properly introduced.

So, let me take this opportunity to say that, while I've been lurking, I have upon occasion interrupted whatever my lovely wife has been doing to say: "You have to hear what RagAss wrote...!"

FWIW, I think you are smart and have a wicked sense of humor.

It's a pleasure to meet you. :)

[RagAss]

45. The pleasure is mine....surprised you noticed me....few do.

[some guy]

5. Hi.

Long time no see. :hi:

I used to enjoy reading your posts; then I didn't see anything from you for a long time. Then someone linked to a very excellent post by you in the GD thread that Skinner started.

:loveya:

[Sapphocrat]

11. I tend to cut out for many months at a time, in an attempt to retain my sanity.

Not, mind you, that I'm saying it works...

Thank you, some guy, for your very kind words. :)

[murielm99]

9. If you weren't here, I would notice and not like it.

We have lost too many long-time DU members.

And I am not talking about those who were given well-deserved pizza parties.

[Sapphocrat]

12. Frankly, I don't know why...

...I haven't been 'stoned. I try to be good, but it's not easy.

I'm usually not here... and I will most likely not be here again, at least until the nex gigantic victory/defeat that impels me to open my big mouth (er, keyboard) again.

But thank you, muriel. You're one of my faves (in case I'd never mentioned it before, which I should have). :)

[Kali]

13. I have never put anyone on ignore

admins put a mutual forced ignore with somebody (probably a good idea) and two others requested a forced mutual ignore (not sure why, never had a bad interaction with either of them and if they didn't like me why couldn't they just put me on ignore on their own?)

that's it

[Sapphocrat]

17. Well, that's good...

...because it means I haven't been so terrible, I merited your first Ignore, ever!

And that's something!

[Arctic Dave]

14. :)

[Sapphocrat]

18. And...

:) to you, Dave. And a ;)

[petronius]

15. Thank god you posted!

You're actually the only person who isn't on my ignore list, and it was getting eerily quiet around here...

[Sapphocrat]

19. OMG!

I have to say something really offensive now, so you can get back to your peace and quiet!

I... I eat live puppies! On television!

[Throd]

16. Never start a barbecue with acetone.

[Sapphocrat]

20. Thank you! Now I know...

...why I can type with only three fingers, and no thumbs!

[RandomThoughts]

21. I love you too.

And to those that have a person on ignore.

I think of that as a person still seeing the home run, just not the pointing to the fence.

So in the long run, it only matters as good form.

[Sapphocrat]

25. Thank you!

(And I understood every word!)

IIRC, I only have on ignore threads begun by one or two people (but not replies by same) to keep me from getting sucked into provocative discussions I know will not turn out well (for me).

[libodem]

22. hi

A few folks have me on ignore cuz I don't always stay to finish what I start.

[Sapphocrat]

26. Hmm...

Sometimes I'll just give up, but I generally let the person(s) know they've irritated me to the point of complete frustration before vanishing. (Usually, 'though, I'll have that effect on them first -- if something's important to me, I'm quite the noodge.)

[EFerrari]

23. I didn't know we did this on Mondays.

Feel strangely underprepared. lol

[Sapphocrat]

27. Is this a regular Lounge thing?

I don't know, because I don't think I've posted in the Lounge in many years.

What day should I have done this? I feel, strangely, as though I've breached proper Lounge etiquette. Wait -- is there proper Lounge etiquette? :D

[provis99]

24. Congratulations!

I've got hundreds on Ignore, but you aren't on the list! (Yet...)

[Sapphocrat]

28. And I probably never will be...

...since you and I tend to agree on just about everything -- which would be difficult for you to know, since you can't see me nodding (and going "Yep!") whenever I run across one of your posts.

Wait... You can't see me, right? (How does this intertubes thing work again? And what's this little doodad with the lens on top of my monitor...?)

[raccoon]

29. Hi. Good idea. nt

[Sapphocrat]

46. I think so, too.

The equivalent of "Testing... testing... Is this thing on?" :)

[redwitch]

30. Hi Sapphocrat

:hi:

[Sapphocrat]

47. Hi, redwitch!

I think I have probably been remiss in thanking you publicly (or even privately) for being... well, you. :hi:

[redwitch]

110. Aw, thanks!

:hug:

[swimboy]

31. Hey, there!

Now why on earth would I have you on ignore?

It's good to see you.

Love,

(nearly invisible) swim

[Sapphocrat]

48. Well , hello, gorgeous!

I miss you. And I love you, too. (And so does my wife.) I'm series. :loveya:

[KamaAina]

32. I avoid the use of Ignore as a matter of principle

tends to stifle the freewheeling debate, you know.

But even if I did use it, you most certainly would not be on it! :loveya:

[Sapphocrat]

50. You've always been so sweet to me, Kama.

I'm not sure why you have been, exactly (I'm hardly the lovable type), but I know I appreciate it, and appreciate you, beyond words.
:loveya:

[frogmarch]

33. I have no one on Ignore, but

even if I did, you wouldn't be among them. I haven't seen any other posts by you, but I checked out your website and liked it.

[Sapphocrat]

52. Thank you, frogmarch!

My (our) Web site*** is an extension of me, my joy, my anger, my passion, and my despair, so that really means a lot. I appreciate it!


*** I'm still trying to convince myself to use the now-more-common "website," yet find myself strangely hung up on "Web site." Oh, well, it took me about 15 years to stop sticking a hyphen in "email"!

[Danger Mouse]

34. I don't really know you, but I could curse you out if you like.

I know a lot of dirty words.

[Sapphocrat]

53. I know you do --

-- I've read your posts. LOL

Just the acknowledgment of my existence is all I need right now, for which I thank you sincerely.

[Danger Mouse]

108. You certainly exist.

Yours is a voice often missed on DU.

I may not know you, but I've heard about you.

[DainBramaged]

35. Shit you been here a while...

[Sapphocrat]

57. As long as the emphasis...

...is not on the word "shit." Although, yes, sometimes all I can say is: "Shit! I have been here a while!"

[hifiguy]

36. Why would I have you on ignore?

I reserve that only for trolls and egregious DLC quasi-trolls.

[Sapphocrat]

58. I don't think you'll find it necessary...

...since I agree with you, a lot (and I don't post often anymore anyway, save for for a gigantic, uncharacteristic, uhhh... spurt this week).

I don't think we've been properly introduced either, hifiguy. FWIW (in with my best Billy Bob Thornton growl), Ah like the way you talk.

[GoneOffShore]

37. Hey - you're not on my ignore list.

[Sapphocrat]

59. w00t!

Do you have a big ignore list?

In any case, I'm glad not to be on it!

[rbnyc]

38. I see you.

:toast:

Sometimes when one of my posts sinks like a stone, I wonder how many people have me on ignore.

[Sapphocrat]

61. Me, too, thus this pure-vanity thread!

Now, how did you know what I was enjoying right now...? :toast:

You can see me! I'd better do something about that doodad with lens on top on my Telly With the VD!

[Tuesday Afternoon]

39. long time, no see

that works, too. right?

how are ya these days . . .

:hi:

[Sapphocrat]

63. The short answer:

Still crazy in love after 2.84 years of wedded bliss, still broke but with a roof over my head (knock wood), and thisclose to a nervous breakdown over my impending 50th -- none of which is so bad, considering the alternatives (i.e., 1) unloved / 2) on the street / 3) dead).

How you doin', darlin'? It has been a long time! :hi:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

104. sounds like you are doing great (especially compared to the alternatives)

Happy Birthday for your 50th :party:

really good to see you :hug:

[Raffi Ella]

40. Fuck You, I hate you!

Even though I don't know who you are~ :hi:

[Sapphocrat]

64. Well, that works!

LOL :hi:

[Raffi Ella]

112. ha!

Nice To Meet You.

[progressoid]

41. I tried the ignore thing once,

But didn't like it.

Not for you though. :)

[Sapphocrat]

65. Not for you, either.

I like your stuff!

By "stuff," I mean, you know, posts. I have not seen your actual stuff, but I'm sure it's very nice.

:D

[MrCoffee]

42. I love you!

Who are you again?

[Sapphocrat]

67. I love you, too!

You're the one to whom I awake with a smile on my face, the one who makes my mornings worth facing, the one who fills me with your hot-'n'-wet goodness, the one who sends a tingle up my--

Whoa, waitasec! Are you the Mister Coffee? The one who sits silently on my kitchen counter? Wha--? You're not? Why, you pervert!






:D

[taterguy]

43. Fuck you

[Sapphocrat]

68. That works, too.

Although I would have appreciated flowers the next day!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

44. Hello.

:hi:

[Sapphocrat]

69. Hiya, V.O.!

Will you forgive me if I say this out loud...?

Every time I see your username, I always think of The Veleveteen Rabbit starring in one those nifty 1960s commercials for VO-5... And then I can't get (the un-stiff and un-stickey) Rula Lenska out of my mind!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

105. Ha!

Well, my username is based on The Velveteen Rabbit; I just think ocelots are cuter.

[bullwinkle428]

49. I definitely miss your regular presence, but am glad to see you

haven't completely given up on this site! :)

[Sapphocrat]

71. That means a lot, bullwinkle. :)

Thank you. And, well, if I'd truly given up on anything, I wouldn't still be a godless heathen radical militant commie socialist liberal intellectual tax-and-spend immigrant-loving pinko sapphist sodomite*** devoted to the destruction of this christianist-founded, god-fearin' republix nation through the insidious implantation of Teh Homo Agenda****, now, would I?

Damn my optimism! LOL


*** Did I miss anything? Besides "Volvo-driving" amd "the father with the Ben Shahn drawings," I mean, as I do not drive a Volvo, and my father would not have recognized a Ben Shahn drawing if his life had depended on it.

**** Or so "they" tell me.

[madmom]

51. I don't have any one on ignore any more, life is too short to care.

[Sapphocrat]

72. I hear that. n/t

[stevenleser]

54. Don't have you on ignore. n/t

[Sapphocrat]

74. Nor I you.

I find you fascinating, Steven. I don't always agree with you, but you definitely make me think.

That was a compliment, by the way. :)

60. I love you.

And, based on your user name, you love me too; just not...you know...like THAT... :P B-)

[Sapphocrat]

86. I know...

And I love you in a purely... spiritual kind of way! :D

[Kaleva]

62. Can't say that I luv you nor do I hate you but I like you!

[Sapphocrat]

87. That's a biggie!

We love lots of people, but it's not always easy to like them! :)

[Luciferous]

66. Don't love you, hate you, or have you on ignore

[Sapphocrat]

88. Oh, good! And...

Love the username -- all darkly enigmatic and white-hot-bright at the same time!

[Sapphocrat]

91. And one of my favorite oldtimers, at that!

Lovely to see you. :)

[JackBeck]

75. My love for you and your wife has always been solid.

I think we're all on the same page with that.

[Sapphocrat]

92. I know that, Jack...

...and I love hearing it. And Buffy and I both love you.

Have I told you lately how much I admire you -- no matter which page either of us is on? ;)

Now, get your handsome self back out to the West Coast. Pad thai is on me (well, not literally...).

:loveya:

[Codeine]

78. I don't ignore with you. . . nt

[Sapphocrat]

93. I'm glad!

You're a DU staple! :)

[nolabear]

79. Hello Sapphocrat.

DOn't have you on ignore. I'm too freakin' nosey to have anybody on ignore.

[Sapphocrat]

94. I hear that! LOL n/t

[SwampG8r]

80. i dont have you on actual ignore but...

i havent paid much attention to you
does that count?

[Sapphocrat]

95. Yes, it counts.

It tells me I need to be more interesting/provocative/profane/rude! LOL

[Heidi]

81. I certainly do not have you on ignore.

:hug: :hug: (One for you, and one for your lovely wife.)

[Sapphocrat]

96. I shall pass that along...

...and send back a :hug: for you and a :hug: and for your wonderful husband. I bet you have no idea how you two are the tops around this house. We both think the world of both of you. :)

[Heidi]

102. What a coincidence!

We think y'all are the tops, too! :loveya:

Please pass the message, too, that The Wiley and Excellent Boy Cat Named Ginger has not forgotten the many compliments NMMNG has paid him over the years. :hug:


"More NMMNG, please!"

[Starbucks Anarchist]

82. Hi.

:hi:

[Sapphocrat]

97. Hi, SA!

Long time no... (How does the rest of that go?) :hi:

[WillParkinson]

83. Well I cannot say fuck you, I hate you...

As I do not hate anyone (except Elvio but that's another story).

So will have to settle for MWAH! (That's a kiss).

Sigh. The last 2 lines are from my kitty Cider. I'm not sure if he's telling you he loves you or telling me to stop what I'm doing and FEEEEEED him.

[Sapphocrat]

98. Tell Cider to be good, and...

...I will PM his servant (that's you) more dirty one-liners I'm not allowed to post in public.

Gotta go -- our Kitty Overloads are now jealous because I'm sending messages to/through another kitty!

[GreenPartyVoter]

114. Howdy!

[derby378]

116. Hi!

Never used the ignore feature, even if someone was being a real asshat. I suspect a lot of folks have "ignored" me, though. :hi:

[Cannikin]

117. I really like you but I still think we should see other people.

[swimboy]

118. Whoa!

Excuse me for interrupting the conversation, but how the hell have you been?
:hi:

[Cannikin]

122. Heya Swimboy! Had an interesting few years, but all is relatively well.

How are you?

[MrScorpio]

119. HI!

Of course I don't have you on ignore.

:hi:

Even though you might have me on ignore

[w8liftinglady]

120. I was going to PM you.. I LOVE your website!

The "f*ck youZ" part is a little premature

I deeply respect you. That do? ( ;

[Boudica the Lyoness]

124. I have only one person on my ignore list...

and it ain't you.

You're too cheeky to ignore.

[Celeborn Skywalker]

125. Hey!

Enjoy your posts, even If I'm not in 100% agreement with all of them :)
