New to DU

[BoneyardDem]

Lots of acronyms, lots of angst, lots of good info. Good to be here and learn new stuff.

DUAdmin suggests a quick intro...here goes. I'm a private person, been burned with private info going public, so it will be limited. I'm a lifelong Dem. I work, I'm lucky and have employer based healthcare, but am fighting for healthcare for all as a tight. I miss Obama's calm leadership. I believe and hope Mueller puts and end to this travesty that is the Trump presidency. I believe he is an "illegitimately" elected fraud.

Enjoy!

11. To Tell You about Middle Finger Mom

He was a member a few years ago and unfortunately passed away (tooooo young!). He posted silly jokes and was as sweet and kind a person you would ever want to meet or whose posts always gave you a smile. He's the reason that I joined DU.

He's now a DU legend.

Welcome!

6. Welcome!

I think you'll like it here. I've been here since 2001, through thick and thin, good times and bad. I don't think I'll ever leave...

7. Welcome to the club!

You'll either love it or find it exasperating (or both).

9. WELCOME

10. Welcome aboard BYDem!

We're a pretty genial group, but things can become tense during elections and discussing policies. The Lounge is a good place to come to get your DU hit, but take a break from politics. Be sure to check out all the other forums listed on the left. Lots of interesting topics. See you around!

16. Pull up a stump and sit down!

You’ll find The Lounge friendly and funny and full of incidental info and chat. Nice folks. In GD, you’re on your own.

17. Welcome to DU

at this point I should write an incredibly witty hello.
then you should reply with an equally witty rejoinder using a pun from something I said in my remark.

i then try to top yours, but fail miserably, yet another Lounge denizen comes to my aid with a smashing repartee
you then respond that it looks like you belong in the lounge.

wasn't that fun?

[BoneyardDem]

21. Awesome !

Not one single solitary repartee possible from me
