[Hawkeye-X]

(I started this two years ago, and it's been a while)...

So crank it out!


You know when you have been on DU too long when your first to-do when you get up is to check newyawkers milestone thread.

1. You write a macro to do a search on your username on startup...

[THUNDER HANDS]

2. you read a newspaper and get upset there's no 'hide stories' option

Or, you make a sarcastic remark to a co-worker and feel cheated because you can't mimick the 'evil smilie' emoticon.

3. You actually start to care

what people you'll never meet think about you.

[TX-RAT]

4. You know everybody's pets names.

[LynneSin]

6. When you install a security system for fear someone from DU is going...

...to kidnap your cat!!!




:eyes:

:loveya:

(personal joke for those who don't understand it)

BTW, you touch Abbott and his security alarm will yell "Step away from the cat" :P

[TX-RAT]

10. " Damn" Can't slip anything past you.

He just don't take a bad picture.

[LynneSin]

15. I have more but I need to upload him

you should have seen him yesterday when I got home from work. He demands that I pick him up immediately. Then after I picked him up we sat down on the recliner and he just snuggles me like I'm his mamma cat. He's so loveable unlike the batkiller!

[tom_paine]

21. How did you find out my evil plan, Lynne?

Man, now I gotta go pay $80 at the SPCA again!

Thanks.

:evilgrin:

[TX-RAT]

29. Heres the deal

I'll go to the door and tell her I'm collecting campaign donations for George Bush. While she's kicking the shit out of me on the front porch, you slip in and grab Abbott.
Perfect plan.

[tom_paine]

30. Yo, but who gets to keep her pretty kitty?

Or do you want to saw it in half like Solomon?

:evilgrin:

NOTE to Lynne: That's a joke. I am a kitty lover and would never consider harming a pretty kitty, as if it needed to be said.

[TX-RAT]

32. I'll take Abbott, you can have the bat killer.

Damn sounds like I'm going to get my ass kicked twice.

[tom_paine]

33. No deal. Abbot's mine!

Find another sucker!

;-)

[WilliamPitt]

5. You base your vote on the collective wisdom of GD2004

[Robb]

8. or on that of the Lounge

:D

[VelmaD]

9. *snort*

I wouldn't base my decision on what to have for lunch on the collective wisdom of the denizens of GD2004.

[flamingyouth]

7. It's the first thing you check in the morning and the last thing at night

:D

[m-jean03]

31. I can "check" the box next to this one!

God, that's scary... :D

[Richardo]

11. You wonder how many "Replies" your posts will have next time you login..

[Guy_Montag]

12. None - generally.

:cry:

[Richardo]

13. I'm usually disappointed too, my brother...

;)

[Guy_Montag]

16. Well I'm afraid, I can't make this interesting,

but at least you can have a reply. :pals:

[bubblesby2002]

23. Me too......

So here's a reply to you from the colony of Victoria. BTW, I love your sig line.:hi:

[Guy_Montag]

27. Always nice to hear from the colonies...

:P How is it out there? Missing the trappings of civilisation yet? :hi:

[bubblesby2002]

41. Took me a while to reply but here goes.....

Good god yes I am missing those trappings. Just had to hitch my dog sled team up to the rail at Lil's bar and saloon. But at least there is a bar and saloon. Seriously, this is Victoria man......a little slice of England don't you know.

[flamingyouth]

14. Yes, it's the story of my life as well

Thread-killer extraordinaire :evilfrown:

[Guy_Montag]

17. I think we need more cats in our replies.

That always seems to work.

[XNASA]

18. ....someone tells you a dirty joke............

..and the first thing that pops into your head is the :evilgrin: smiley.

[myrna minx]

19. You use the term "Novakula" or "Rumsferatu"

in everyday life and no one knows what your talking about.

[m-jean03]

20. You just feel kind of lost without a keyboard and an

empty message box to type in .

[catzies]

22. When you get pissed "Robb is a dingbat" isn't on every poll

IRL.

[Parrcrow]

24. You're in a Newyawker Milestone thread on a daily basis.

[SiouxJ]

25. You are frustrated that other sites you frequent

don't have the poll feature. What's wrong with them?!!!!!

[Ksec]

26. when you start reaching for the delete or enter keys in real life.
