Really, I would like a pinstripe on the side of my big ol’ foot. Maybe some flames at the heel.

So… I’m minding my own bidness, hanging out at theGFs place, when what do I see? A NEWBIE thread! Wanting WELCOMES! Browsing through, I see my name mentioned, sooooo…

Any newbies wanting a welcome, I’m giving fair warning - here’s a link to the first [Welcome Wagon thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=45294). That’ll give you a good idea what these things are like. The first one is closed, and the [second Welcome Wagon thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=68583) is pretty long as is (not to mention too old) so I’m only posting it here as more example of what to expect, please no bumping.

If there is interest in restarting the thread though, I’ll open up a new Welcome Wagon thread and gladly have a go at the lot of you.

Yes, absolutely.

I read about 20 of Crunchy Frog’s posts and I can quite assuredly state that I do not need an extra orifice torn open at this time. 😃
