DUer's you NEVER want to meet-- who would you avoid at all costs???

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NutmegYankee (a host of the General Discussion forum).

Let's start the anti-popularity thread. I'll go first:

KG- holy cow. Where do I even start? I mean, a nice guy, intelligent, funny- but, I think he might be a Pirate's fan. I am not sure.

Trumad- is depressed because no one wants to meet him on the popularity thread.

There are so many-- let's add to the list-

Unless you make a joke about not wanting to meet yourself (which someone already made), it seems like you are just going to hurt or annoy people.

But right now I don't trust myself at all. Saturday El_Bryanto spent a hell of a lot of money that Monday El_Bryanto wishes he hadn't.

So maybe that proves your point.

is in the "gray zone" of "possibly normal folks" in FL. I don't know if I would be so quick to put yourself on the "Avoid at all costs" list.

Spending money on Saturday is easy- particularly at Costco-

We're the type of people you'd love to sit down and have a drink with.....but who you'd refuse to actually drink the drink in front of you.

Sorry, where was I?

Honestly, I love Florida. I actually moved down to Florida out of my love for it.

Yes, we are crazy. But I think we're the only folks who are okay with admitting that we are crazy, and reveling in it. And it's that type of self-deprecating attitude that endears me to the place.

Plus, I love the weather. Even the hot and humid summers. Actually, especially the hot and humid summers.

The folks I have gotten along with because I think we would get along swimmingly in person

and the folks I haven't gotten along with because I hope meeting in person could turn that around.

There are numerous reasons for wanting to avoid certain DUers. I mean, Catwoman- look at all her bad qualities- intelligent, funny- Yeah. Avoid her like the plague.
