Help set a new SD record!

Pointless enough…

As an active participant in the Guy Stuff thread, I can say this: we welcome more females. Especially now. We’ve hujacked a space shuttle, and the guys are getting a little antsy up there.

Just doing my part to add to this thread! It’s a noble cause.


Changing my sig, because Wally said to, and I really like Wally, and I’ll do anything he says, anytime he says to.

Carry on.

I already added to this thread once, and I won’t do it again!

I’ll add on. Though I don’t think it needs a mascot. I think the thread needs a controversy of some sort. One of the multiple-named posters should get busy and go to work right here! The initial posts would piss everyone off, then we’d get at least three pages of “Please just shut up and leave” posts, then a few “don’t feed the trolls” posts, then the multi-name poster would register as some pseudo-FBI/CIA “finder” type, and threaten him/herself in the form of the original name(s). Hijinks would ensue. Non-stop fun, AND it would quickly beat the “guy stuff” (and “gay stuff”) threads easily!

Okay, here is a completely mudane and pointless post…I bought a new vacuum cleaner today!

Okay, here is another completely mundane and pointless thread…I accidentally mispelled “mundane” on the previous post.

Before you say it, I am absolutely, positively not trying to pad my post count. Nope, no way, not me.

Hmmm. Maybe we can combine the thread mascot, controversey and a non-popularity contest all at the same time. We could have a charred troll mascot, and discuss at length who would be best.

Continue talking among yourselves.

Okay, that settles it. I suggest we smack the shit out of Tokugawa, char him a little and make him the mascot. Sheesh, any more Brickeresque challenges with smilies and I’ll start boycotting this thing.

My head hurts.

Can newbies join in? (furiously padding post count… but, why? Is there a contest?)

The recent troubles on the board have slowed this thread’s ability to beat Guy Stuff to the thousand post plateau. Therefore I remain steadfast in my resolve not to contribute to it.

I really should be doing my biology homework. Instead I’m here.
