For old DU'ers (those near 10k post AND 2-3 years)
Feel marginalized lately? Weary of weird California muscle-man Governors calling you a "girley-man"? Not many snappy and germane reposts to your hearty attempts? No sex, no response? Maybe you need vitamin V. Hell if I know where you get it!

1. It's always a problem when a place gets too big - focus gets lost
I sorta burned out on posting here for a while because it just feels like my post gets lost in a blizzard of other posts. :shrug:

11. Nice to know that
:)

I hope I'll be able to keep posting when fall semester starts. Now that I've started posting again, I'd like to keep it up. Besides, as the election nears, where else can I discuss it but here on DU? :)

2. I am too obnoxious to ever let my resolve soften!
But I do understand where you are coming from, truly.

3. Seriously, how do you keep up?
With all the posts, I mean. Just browsing the forums takes me a couple of hours and that's just once through.

9. Hmmm...Hyperactivity harnessed
I like! Think a pot of coffee would do the same thing for me? :)

6. Oh, hell, I've felt marginalized for years! So what else is new!
People ignore my profound brilliance on a daily basis, often on several threads at once. C'mon, big guy, kick some sand in my face.....

Thank God for Vitamin M (Michael)...he keeps my testosterone titillated-truthfully!

10. Don't know about the rest of you,
but I for one miss the sex posts. Why can't we have a forum for them?

12. I miss them too but we're now considered perverts and need to
go elsewhere to get our "jollies". Though, God knows, the very idea of Democrats talking about sex is simply EXPLOSIVE.....We're such a chaste and virtuous people.

14. LOL - at 2:14 in the morning - pain meds kicking in - you do have a
great idea!

An old DUers home - virtual - or real!

17. Great idea! Old-folks home for liberals!
That might reduce the elder suicide rate by 25%. Hell, I'd take the bitter pill before going to a right-wing, fundy dominated nursing home in the Bu$h sunshine state. I'm so afraid that's where I'll end up that I might buy a gun.

Now I have my business idea. All I need is a plan!

16. Anybody remember the greens vs Dem flame wars
Edited on Mon Aug-23-04 07:39 PM by puerco-bellies
I used to post as Denbot and remember almost quitting DU because of constant Green incoming.

Edited because I'm not able to edit on the fly.
