Crunchy Frog's New and Improved Welcome Wagon, everyone invited

Since I’ve been posting here lately, I guess I should introduce myself.

My name’s Rick. I’m a systems engineer for an instruments division of a medium-sized aerospace company. I’m single, white, and mostly heterosexual. I’m studying for my Masters in EE (12 years after earning the BSEE) and just ignored my 36th birthday last week.

I’m a veteran netizen, remembering fondly the days of Usenet before spam, and lately my favorite newsgroups are alt.tasteless, alt.peeves, and rec.arts.movies.erotica. :o

But I promise to be good and observe the rules of decorum here… such as they are.

eunoia, don’t worry, pal, I saw your there. Don’t know why my “assistants” ignored you.

Mental age 17. Great, another emotionally stunted walking bag of hormonal plentitude. Just what this board needs.
And I guess you haven’t mastered the art of posting a link. I have no idea what you linked to above, since I haven’t quite mastered the ability to match thread id’s with thread titles. Pay attention:

Lesson #1 for the Newbies!!
Here’s how to make a link. You can cut and paste the url, like eunoia did above, or you can be slick with it. Make one of the words in the sentence a link. Such as if I wanted to link to a picture of me in my ugly ass tuxedo. Yes. I actually wore that to my sister’s reception. She dared me. Here’s how you do something like that. [ url=“http://whatever_you_want_to_link_to.com”]words that will be seen Just make sure there’s no space between the bracket and url. I just did that so you’d be able to see how it’s typed.

Here endeth the lesson.

I would think an English major, albeit one with a Korean minor (and what do his parents think about that, anyway?!) would be able to read and comprehend. Go back to the OP. Check out rule #2. Beg forgiveness and send nekkid pix.

WHAT!? How do you grow up in America (from Ohio, school in Utah) and not be able to catch a Three Stooges reference? Please tell me you’ve heard of Larry, Moe, and Curley.

Evnglion

Doesn’t matter what you call yourself. It’s my opinion that matters. Don’t you people realize the world revolves around me? Didn’t anyone get the memo? It’s true, it’s been proven. Sheesh, you’d think a scientific breakthrough like that would get more air time on the 6:00 news, but all they ever talk about is the President and floods and really unimportant stuff. It’s the liberal media trying to keep me down, that’s what it is. Fight the MAN!!!

Oh good, another smart-ass. Can ever get enough of those around here.

And we’re already taken bets on how ling it will last. To join the pool, send cashier’s check or money order to Crunchy Frog and log your choice for the big split at http://www.doomed_from_the_start.com

You little flirt! Stop getting me so hot at work. If I was to stand up right now, people would think I’m surfing for porn.

Do you prefer McDonald’s or Burger King?

frobozz

So why did you post again?! Dammit, frobozz!

Sweet Walter

Oh, he’s harmless. It’s the groundhogs you have to worry about.

So is anyone else disturbed that he even has nekkid pics of his mom?
Now let’s examine rule #7 again, shall we? It says, “All female newbies must send nekkid pictures of themselves to me, via email.” The key words are female newbies and themselves. No men (TruePicses has requested those pics), nobody’s mother, grandmother, sister, thrid cousin once removed. Female newbies’ pics of themselves. Is that so difficult to understand?

Citygirl852

Well, helloooooo nurse! How seridipitus (is that a word?) that you’ve popped in. Seeing as my virtual wife, Nymysys who is also from Chicago is running off and getting married IRL and my other virtual wife is MIA, I’m in the market for a replcement. Wanna be my new favorite newbie? :wink:

Tell ya what, send those to me and we’ll see what we can do with them in PhotoShop…

That’s ok, I make disparaging remarks about everything. My favorite targets are 40-ish chatty redheaded Wiccans.
**

I’ve got something nicknamed Pop-Up Willie also. Wanna see it?

It’s from a Monty Python skit.

You are all cordially invited to Bite Me.

Ok, I give up. I’m not exactly a newbie, but somehow I’ve managed to miss what exactly this “3) Hi, Opal!” business is about. Please elucidate.

I wouldn’t bite you with seawitch’s teeth.
:stuck_out_tongue:

This one?

I got it.

I just ignored it.

So bite me. :wink:

This one?

I got it.

I just ignored it.

So bite me. :wink:

I think I’ve been smited by the Gods of Crunchy. I never double post.

This will teach me to try to make fun of Crunchy. I’m just not good enough.

sigh Now I just need to find out what my penance will be…

Now that I’ve got some formal posting time, I’d like to take the time to make the following announcement:
BITE ME!!!
Thanks. Now, newbies, the nekkid pics rule doesn’t just apply to Crunchy… And some of us aren’t getting any… You might know where this is going… so, uh… yeah… I’ll just be over here… and if you wanna, y’know… uh… stop making me feel awkward… please stop staring… I’m a little uncomfortable… yeah…

That is the saddest damn thing I’ve ever seen. Not only can’t you think of your own lame insult to toss about, you have to steal my lame insult.

**

Yes it does.
I am the only non-admin or non-mod Doper authorized to view the nakedness of our esteemed female newbies.
**

And that’s why god gave us hands.

bughunter

So what’s that? You make flying flutes? Aerodynamic tubas - oh, wait it’s only a medim sized company. Tuba would be too big, I guess. Trumpets then?

And if you slip up, we feed you to Tequila Mockingbird. Don’t think this is an idle threat, lad. She’ll chew you up like Juicy Fruit.

I’m assuming you’ve done a search before asking this question…

Lesson #2 - All Newbies Pay Attention
The history of the “Hi, Opal!” - abridged version.
Some time ago, OpalCat claimed a list needed at least 3 items to be a proper list. This started the in-joke of ending a 2-item list with Item #3 being “Hi Opal!” Now in almost any list #3 will be “Hi, Opal!”
It will always be #3. If you put a “Hi Opal!” after any other number you will look silly.

Here endeth the lesson.

Oh come on, I’ve been here long enough to ogle some of our more vivacious dopettes. And if you want a better insult, I’m too damn lazy to come up with one. You’ll take what you get…

All right, Crunchy, I’ll bite.

I am a 23 yr old female electrical engineer one semester away from graduating from the biggest drinking school in the midwest. I wear the pants in my relationship. But without underwear. I like cats, Jeeps, AMD, archaeologists, Thai food, and the Straight Dope. And you have to earn your nekked pictures, rules or not. You send me one, I’ll send you one. Now who wants to take them??

I’ve noticed people are using “assclown” without giving me proper credit.

You will hear from my attorney soon.
And Crunchy…When a sig line like that drops into your lap like a gift from the Gods…and you ignore it…
If Cruncy doesn’t want " assclown of evil" I will start the auction now :slight_smile:

[hijack]
Now I’m stuck with a mental picture of an ass with fuzzy orange hair and a round red nose. I wish they made Windex for the brain.
[/hijack]

Crunchy, I knew where your name came from. And yes, I would like to see your Pop-Up Willie. Nekkid pics gonna be posted?

Yea, sorta like that, if you mean trumpets that can read your license plate from low Earth orbit. :wink:

Oooh… I’m intrigued. I adore aggressive women. In fact, I’ve been having fantasies about Anne Robinson lately. Anne, a huge bowl of uncooked pancake batter, an entire flat of fresh strawberries, a case of Redi Whip, and a giant, two-handed spatula.

hardygrrl gripes:

Easy girl, easy! Keep your shirt on! (Unless of course, you’re about to take those pix you owe me.) I said a while back I’m adding it to my sig line, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. It’s not easy keeping track of the threads I’m involved and my real work at the same time you know.

So what is the biggest drinking school in the Midwest? It seems we don’t have mush inn common except for the habit of walking around sans underwear. Let me know where this college is and I’ll be glad to pop by, get you all liquored up, and take nude pics of you. As for my nude pics… There out there somewhere, but I won’t say who has them…

So, you wear the skirt in your relationship? Without underwear… go ahead and bend over for me, please.

I’m just off exit 127 on I-70 in the beautiful state of Missouri. You have 3 hours to find me to claim your picture taking rights. Beginning… now.

Hey smart-ass, I live in St Louis. How far down I-70 are you? There’s a DopeFest I’m trying to get together sometime between May 4-14 (I’m on vacation then) There’s a thread open if you’re interested.

I am wee and quite afraid of you. I lurked here many a day but finally registered because you are all so shiny and your teeth flash so prettily. I want to play, but all my brilliant thoughts turn to so much babble in the presence of so much intelligence. IRL, people think I am very nice and hard-working and pat me on the head a great deal. One day, I will show my inner badass and all will be amazed. Thank you for your time. P.S. You, sir, are very comely.

:nervous tittering:
