Well after that I HAD to check out ThePit. Quite a “discussion” you two had.

\*\*maia \*\* Where are you? If it would make you feel any better, start your own thread and I’ll ride on yours for awhile.🙂

Greetings, **Phax** and **maia**! For some newbie nostalgia, did you know that once upon a time, **Crunchy Frog** had a [Welcome Wagon thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=45294)? This thread was so welcoming, it spawned a [sequel](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=68583) and a [spinoff](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=122784), which was created by **Hardygrrl**.

Just had to mention those – this thread made me miss those welcome wagons. Oh how I miss those newbie days!

Howdy y’all! Welcome to the SDMB. Please replace the toilet paper when it’s all used up and when you’re done with the laundry, the socks better be rolled and in the drawer. If I have to dig through a pile of socks one more time I’ll lose my mind!

Hey, rolling socks is the mods’ job! Or is that sending socks rolling? I get those two confuselated.
