I never seen such blatant sucking up going on… 'cept when Corrado became a mod.

Coldy’s head won’t fit through a doorway if this keeps up.

Aw hell… congrats Clog Boy!

And those nekkid wimmins were appreciated… a mod bearing gifts is a good thing.

One day I will have to tell you about this fantasy I have about me, three MPSIMS mods, and a big jar of Ben-Gay.

Well, well, well . . .

You’ll get no congratulations from me, you sell-out!

What about your dreams? The artistic ideas behind it all? I thought that’s what it was all about, but apparently you were just dancing for the Man all along. You make me sad.

May your clogs give you splinters in your pinky-toes.

It’s incredible what some people will do to improve their chances with the ladies, isn’t it ? As if you were starved for attention from the lovely SDMB ladies in the first place, grumble.

Seriously: Congratulations, ColdyClogs - I’ll buy you a beer at the AmsterDope. And, of course, nick your SDMB coffee mug if I get within a mile of it.

Now go clean out the troll stables.

That was not blatant sucking up. That was well-deserved adulation.

Welcome aboard, Coldfire, and the best of luck to you. Hope you enjoy the extra five-dozen e-mails a day!

I can’t make fun of Republicans or **UncleBeer** will ban me.

I can’t make fun of total babes or **Gaudere** will ban me.

I can’t make fun of **Eutychus** or he’ll quit. 😉 (Miss you already, kid!)

I can’t make fun of Canadians or gays because I’m outnumbered here.

I used to be able to make fun of the Dutch, but I can’t even do that anymore.

My liberties are being stomped into the ground.

Help! Help! I’m being repressed!

It’s a sad day when it’s not even safe to poke fun at the Dutch.

Don’t forget you’ll also be banned for making fun of Rush.

This is something you REALLY don’t want to do, BD . . MadHatter was banned for this (among countless other things), and I know a lot of us would be quite sad to see you go.

Congrats, Coldfire.
