Anyway, I still have no fucking idea what it is. I demand that someone explains it to me without me doing any effort, such as Googling or clicking on a link. I haven’t got the slightest clue what it is, either. So it’s not as though every American would know what a “halvsie” is. ---

According to [halvsie.com](http://www.halvsie.com), it’s a term for people who are half-Japanese and half-American. Or something. ---

And **lorene** : I actually thought about posting to your thread ten minutes after you posted it but I didn’t think “EWWWWWWW!” would have been a very useful reply, much like “I don’t know” would have been pointless to post to **Rilchiam** ’s thread. ---

Halvsie is a dog with only two legs, both on the same side of its body. This dog is most likely apocryphal, but there was a nice long thread about Halvsie some time ago. That thread is considered by some to be a SDMB classic. ---

To answer the query of the OP, no. I haven’t has sufficient interaction with you to want to put you on iggy. Even the flaming four-alarm-union-card-carrying assholes of this board aren’t on my iggy list. Why? Because sometimes it’s fun to watch someone take idiot to art form. 😃 ---

> [@Rilchiam](#): > > I asked a [simple fucking question.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=295089) A simple yes, no or I don’t know would suffice. One unanswered thread? That’s nothing. A few days ago I went through all of the threads I ever started, and I have freakin’ **16** of them. Kind of makes me feel like shit, but then I don’t blame the other members of the board. I realize that I just must be a crapy poster. So anyway, be thankful that you only have just one unanswered post. ---

Dang, I thought she was just being expressive and facetious, I didn’t think she was REALLY “whining” at anyone in particular, or really SERIOUS about “how come you all aren’t paying attention to me”. But, silly me, I misread people that way sometimes (semi sarcastic smilie). [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hello-am-i-on-everyones-ignore-list/284041.md?page=3)
