How embarrassing. **melondeca** is a B for me. I was hoping I’d have something more interesting to say!

**Jess** is a D for me. I remember that her son’s a bodybuilder, and she shows up in threads on the topic from time to time.

**Jess** always makes me think that I screwed up somewhere and signed in using my real name somehow, so I’d call that a C-verging-on-D. 🙂

**Jess** is a _girl_??

That sheds a whole new light on [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=356552). (I really should pay more attention when I read OPs.) Prior to that thread, however, I’d never heard of **Jess** , so I guess that makes her an A.

Definitely a B for **Draelin**. I’m pretty sure Draelin is of the female persuasion, and I see her posts a lot but can’t think of anything off the top of my head that stands out.

Silenus is a solid “C” too. Solid as a…satyr?

Man, I know I’ve seen your name for ages here, yet at the moment I can’t recall anything specific about you.

Stupid old Sometimer’s Disease!

Tikki is a C for me. Seen the name lots, but I don’t think we’ve been in the same threads much.

Since no one jumped in on **The Sausage Creature** , I’ll list her as a solid C. I specifically remember the time she posted a link to a photo of her engagement ring. Now, if I’m misremembering and that was another Doper, I’ll slink out of this thread in shame and embarrassment.

I first met norinew on a singles cruise in— I can’t remember if it was Thailand or Alaska, but it was one of those Chinese countries. I looked into her eyes and I knew immediately without her saying it that I had left my iron on back in my room. When I returned I found her there, dancing with the man in the Armani tux, his hair parted on the side furthest away from his parasitic twin, as they held each other and sang along to… I don’t remember if it was _Marriage of Figaro_ or _Nutbush City Limits_, but one of those French songs. It was at that moment that I realized what the term ‘dispensation’ meant, because it was announced on the ship’s loudspeaker as the word for the day.

Since then I’ve always thought of her as a trusted friend and valuable counsellor. Or maybe I’m thinking of Eve, but either way, we’ll always have that moment on the cruise ship. Or maybe it was a casino.

Oooh! I get **sampiro**???!!!

An E. Definitely an E.

I think that this is a case of fools rushing in, because those here with a longer history can add so much more. But from this relative newbie:

I love **sampiro’s** posts about family and friends. Not always heartwarming; not by a long shot. Nope. But they \*are \* humorous, insightful, and strangely warped (in the very best sense of that word). If he wrote a book, I’d buy it in a New Yawk minute.

And, just for the record, I looked damned good in that tux…

I’ll have to give a C to **Plynck**. I’ve seen you around in threads, but we’ve never interacted.
