[Lil Missy]

Sorry about the abbreviations. There are a few gems, but it takes a while to sort through them.

I've never found any topic worth fighting over. I make my mind up and I'm not interested in changing opinions. See my sig line.

[keroro gunsou]

61. bah!

[sarge43]

[dcsmart]

18. the labor forum is a good place to go also

:toast:

[AllieB]

19. Welcome!

:hi: People must have gotten all their hostility out on the teabagging, pirate, and Susan Boyle threads last week so they're in good moods. That's the only explanation for DU being polite and hospitable. :D

[BarenakedLady]

20. I don't think we have met

[Danger Mouse]

32. Polite?? Hospitable??? What forums have you been in?

Somebody's doing something wrong. I want answers!!! :grr:

[Aristus]

34. Welcome! BTW, how did you get through the last eight years without being here?

I would have gone crazy sometime back in 2003 if it hadn't been for DU.

[Fendius]

39. Im a musician first, so before i was obviously going through a divorce,)

If you know what its like being a musician,)

The last 8 years were pretty rough though

and thank you ;-)

[applegrove]

40. Welcome to the DU.

:hi:

[EastTennesseeDem]

42. The next thread you have to start is about how the Washington Nationals suck

That'll mean you're one of them.

The reason I don't say "one of us" is because I'm personally on the outside of everyone's in-jokes.

[TZ]

50. Yeah sure.

Thats why you are one of the "Nats Suck" clique.:eyes: :P

[EastTennesseeDem]

60. I'm not either

Because then if the Cardinals get swept by them, there'll be hell to pay on my part.

[cabbage08]
