Evidently my PR department’s on the blink. One response to my new [epic](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=100795).

**Scylla** writes a story about how he’s got the hots for sheep and people flock ( \<Foghorn Leghorn\> sheep/flock…that’s a funny, son. A baaaah’d funny, but a a funny nonetheless. And if you count the “baaaaah’d”, it’s a double funny! \<Foghorn Leghorn\> ) to it. But let me write the first installment of a story bound to feature cute girls in mini-skirts, Benwa-bolas, international intrigue, sex AND circumcision, and I get a yawn.

I tells ya! I getsk no respekt! I gotta get me a new PR department.

Fenris, the forgotten  
I’m a has-been

I was just wondering who “etc.” was. I can’t seem to find them in the member lists. 😃

Same here. Three of my OPs have made Threadspotting. I initiated a hijack of a troll’s OP which resulted in the thread making Threadspotting. I’ve got 16 pages worth of personalized newbie welcomes. Do I get an personal invitation to this thread? No, I’m stuck with being fucking “etc.”

**Fenris** just takes songs and puts his own words to it, WTF is that? He’s the Puff Daddy of the SDMB! (Or is he still calling himself P. Diddy?) I would call him the Weird Al of the SDMB, but at least Al occasionally comes up with an original song of his own now and then. He’s as much a one trick pony as **Esprix**!

And **Scylla**? What has he done lately? He’s like Fabio! He’s famous for being famous. I would rant more about this hack, but I really have no idea what he’s done to rant about!

As for **DDG** … well I’m hoping to one day boink her, so I’ll leave **DDG** out of this for now.

So that’s it, I’ve had it with you people and your cliques and your cabals and your minions! You people all suck! I’m leaving and I’m never coming back because you’re all a bunch of loser no-life circle-jerking dickweasels and I hate you!

I’m not kidding, I’m outta here!

Sorry, I was a little on edge just now, let me in your clique, huh? If I could be in the **SDMB Clique/Cabal** [sup]TM[/sup] I swear you’d never know I was there. I promise I’ll just sit in the back and be quiet. I won’t bother anyone, promise. Please?

Sorry, **Ducky** , but **Geo** ’s got Yeoman Janice Rand written all over her, and it’s in invisible ink too 😃

You, my much admired friend, must be **Uhuru**. Brilliant, calm, deeply sexy and apparently a great singer ( 😉 ), you shall control our communications.

Me, my needs are simple. Make me an extra in the Security Department, I can die in an AWFUL away team accident in the first Act. 😃

Cartooniverse, just workin’ on his SAG hours …

p.s. Hey **Geobabe** , how YOU doin’ ??? 🙂

Huh ?  
The thread title just looks like an advertisement to get the coolest folk on the boards involved and so maybe others will give it a coat of looking at too.

Well, that can’t be it, Cas, 'cuz I’m not mentioned in the title.

Tip for posters who wanna be able to brag about having huge threads: Put my name in the title. People have a morbid curiosity about the things I do.

It’s true. Thousands flock to **SPOOFE** ’s threads, if only to find out what he did with the “bo Diddly”.

Some folk say he fed it through a meat-grinder and served it as sausages at a fancy dinner party.

Others say that he buried it in the swamp, but a lightning bolt hit it and now it’s an undead, muck-encrusted mockery of a “bo Diddly”.

Another person has suggested that the “bo Diddly” was left for dead. It swore vengance when a bat flew by. “It’s a _omen_!” the bo Diddly muttered " **SPOOFE** is a superstitious, cowardly lot! I shall become “Bat bo Diddly” and with that it ran off into the night…

And over a cliff.

Because, just because you want to _act_ like a bat doesn’t mean you have the echolocation abilities of one!

More “What happened to the ‘bo Diddly’” theories that everyone’s talking about will be posted later, after I make them up.

Aw, you got us, Dave, we all got together and bribed Reprise to start this thread. Sorry we forgot to call you, but–did you have an extra first-born child you didn’t have any use for?

Didn’t think so.

Hey, I googled around and found a sample mod agreement that might work, suitably modified.
