31. Ok, let me 'plain somthin' for ya

There *has* to be at least 65 threads on any given topic (whatever the outrage du jour is) because one absolutely MUST put their self-righteous indignation on display regularly to be a "winner" on DU.

A mere comment in an already established thread doesn't cut it my friend. No, one must be absolutely certain that the right people read those displays of self-righteous indignation. How else can you win friends and influence people??

Besides, if you start your own thread that correctly mirrors all the other self-righteous, indignant people they can all take turns rec'ing each other's rants and adding lots of replies and the really important "monster thread" status is achieved and then Voila! You're somebody!!

I admit I often envy these folks. Here I am struggling to make rent, hoping to buy groceries and what not and, to these folks, the big concern is winning acceptance (you like me, you really like me!1!) here at DU.

But don't you ever forget, they're the REAL liberals and they are mostly concerned with justice and equality or whatever.
