First thread.

This is the first thread I have stared. Will I get snarked like that other guy?

It depends. What other guy?

Welcome, BTW!

Hi. Nice that you could join us.

I stare at threads too. For very long periods of time.

Pfft. Do something snarkworthy first.

Don’t worry. My first threads only got a few replies, and nobody even welcomed me to the SDMB. You’re already off to a great start.

Welcome aboard! :slight_smile:

Depends, are you an asshole? :dubious:

Are you referring to JimH52’s recent thread? If so, I doubt you’ll receive that kind of reception.

JimH52 must have expected the kind of response he was going to get when he started his first thread in an established board with a challenge that we were doing everything wrong. I assume he got the reaction he wanted. Some people insist on making a big splash even if they have to jump off a tall building to do it.

I don’t know how to do snark-worthy on purpoise. But I am willing to learn.

Welcome, welcome! Would you like some ice cream? It’s [del]frisky[/del] fresh!

No, wait! That’s backwards. We’re trying to avoid snarkworthiness! After all, the first rule of this board is, “Don’t be a jerk!”

You could learn to spell porpoise correctly first. After that almost anything you do on the porpoise would be snark-worthy.

Psst. The “o” and “i” key are just one fat-finger distance from each other.

It depends. How much you got on ya? Huh?

Duh. That’s why it’s so easy to spell porpoise correctly.

I’m still waiting for my yogurt, from the last newbie.
Hint. Hint.

Word of advice: don’t let The Dope slap you on the way in.

No slap? Man. How about some tickle then?

Hi Mewl Dear, and welcome!

What’s the story behind your screen name?
How’d you find the SDMB?
What persuaded you to register?
What’s your favorite forum so far?

Ignore the snarking for now. We all do it.

Well, aren’t you just the little harbinger of joy?

20 posts and no one has introduced him to the Squid? Or the goat?

Where are your priorities people?!?!

Welcome, Mewl Deer. The Goat is in the third door to your left. Please leave him there when [del]he’s finished with you[/del] you are finished. We need him for the next guy too.
