I had completely given up on this thread, too. Good thing for vanity searching. 🙂 Alas, yes…we’re both spoken for. C’est la Vie. A shame, really…I have _very_ ridgey, veiny hands. 😉 ---

> [@TheOnlySaneOne](#): > > Ah, but would you have remembered me if I hadn’t kvetched first? 😉 But thanks, darling. And, as I’m sure you know, the feeling is mutual. Oh yeah, I would have. Besides, it’s not like you mentioned me here until after I mentioned in [your thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=319033&page=1&pp=50) that I never end up in these sorts of threads. ---

Rats. I flirted shamelessly (and was shamelessly firlted with, in return) but didn’t garner any Doper crushes of my own… …oh, well… ---

> [@kimera](#): > > Haha, I think I look like an innocent 12-year-old in that pic which I find very amusing. I guess my goat head isn’t as noticable as I thought! Well, you definitely don’t look 12 in that pic. But it does have this wholesome and virginal aura about it… 😉 I must have missed the goat-head picture, but the last one on your page is reminiscent of Cousin Itt. 😃 ---

_sheepish_ Too be honest, I hadn’t seen you post in awhile, and so you kind of drifted to the back of mind. Your post in my thread made me go “DUDE! She’s awesome, go add her to crush thread, post haste!” So, I apologize for forgetting about thy radient wonderfulness until _you_ kvecthed towards \*me[/me]. 🙂 ---

Got a bit of a crush on **Susanstohelit** (who doesn’t?) and I get kind of oogly when I see her posts. She actually addressed me directly once! ---

I’ve always rather liked **Miss Purl McKnittington,** but I think it was her post in the “What’s your single favorite piece of information?” thread that ripened it into a crush. ---
