I’m quite disappointed. I thought you were going to show us the Grand Tetons.

I hired someone to pose as me at the Dopefests I’ve supposedly been to.

Ah, my eyes! They burn!  
As for me, I’m actually a mild-mannered librarian type, and I never stand up for myself or others. I cruise through life completely oblivious to anything around me, and I mind my own business no matter what and do as I’m told without question. I only pretended to be a trublmakr to gain a bad-ass reputation. You guys can stop being scared of me now.

In that case you really must be a guy called Milton (or maybe only one Wednesday a month) are you into stamp collecting too?

Now that is a really mean thing to say about Monica, that attractive females are repulsed by her… I mean this isnt the pit 😛

What gave it away?? My insatiable love for porn? My hatred of girly movies? The fact that I started a thread to see if I could legally have sex with **Chimpy**? 😃

Wait I thought Guinastasia was Michael Jackson, oh wait you didnt say A CHIMP :smack:

But yes all those things and more lead me to the conclusion that you are none other than _drum roll_ [Geraldo Rivera\*](http://www.foxnews.com/images/101019/55_21_350_rivera_geraldo.jpg)\*\*

Can anyone out there honestly say they’ve seen Kimera and Geraldo in the same room :dubious:

😃

\*Warning photo may scare young children and the elderly, if you have heart problems I recommend NOT viewing that photo.

For all your fair and balanced news there is no other channel like CNN … wait I meant FNC .

Yes. I am so ashamed. I knew that once the dopers realized I was affiliated with _that_ station they would never speak to me again. ☹

I’m not really a 21 year old angsty bartender. I’m a 45 year old man who hunts deer (dear) and lives in BFE and walks 40 miles to the nearest library to post on this board because it makes me look smart and the women folk like that.

**HAH!** I always knew y’all were a bunch of liars. I am the only truthful one in the bunch! I really am a bear. I really do live in the swamps. I spend all day filching beer coolers and cookies from unsuspecting hunters and campers.

I am and you can’t prove any different. So There! 😛
