Hi guys, its me again from yesterday. I know i didnt exactly get the best start from some people on there, and i just wanted to say sorry 
Hope your all having a great day so far
Keira
:wally
Don’t sweat it. In any large group there’s going to be uptight people, easygoing people, grouchy people, slutty people, funny people, etc and they aren’t all going to like what the others have to say. I didn’t see anything really wrong in the other thread (except the chat room talk, that doesn’t go over well here as you had quickly pointed out to you) but hang out, post, and have fun.
We don’t all think alike, so don’t go thinking cuz a handful of people have an initial negative reaction that we all feel the same way. I didn’t think anything in the other thread warranted a separate apology, but that’s just me. I don’t speak for everyone, but I do speak for my dog, since she can only bark. I don’t know why I bothered sharing that, but I’m bored at work and rambling now.
Maybe I’ll go through my desk and speak for the stapler now.
Actually, most of the negative comments in your thread (that is still on the first page of the Forum as I respond, here) were later withdrawn or, at least, mitigated by their authors.
I suspect that you’d have done better just posting this apology in that thread. Opening a new thread when the first is still active just might make you appear a bit too youthfully exuberant (a.k.a. childish). You have not really committed any major sins to earn anyone’s hatred or scorn, so you don’t have a need to make a special apology.
As noted in the other thread, your best bet would be to simply take your time, read a bit more of each of the Fora, and join in where you have appropriate contributions to make. People who are actually liked around here are generally appreciated for their ability to provide knowledge, wit, solace, or (only in the BBQ Pit) truly creative invective. Interacting with other posters is the best way to display your own knowledge, wit, or empathy.
Well thanks hun 
i just wanted to make sure that everything was ok, i just wanna have fun on here and talk about different stuff
and i think your stapler should say a few words
Keira, I just checked out the other fora for you.
I have placed all small, easily-swallowed objects into difficult-to-open contiainers.
I have put little plactic plugs in all the electrical outlets.
I have put little gates across the tops of all flights of stairs.
I have turned the handles of the pots and skillets on the stove inward.
I have taken all hazardous chemicials out from under the kitchen and bathroom sinks and placed them in locked cabinets out of reach.
I have made sure there is no standilng water in any bathtub or sink. The swimming pool is covered.
The Straight Dope Message Board is newbie-proofed.
It’s safe for you to go post now.
Turns out the stapler isn’t as interesting as I thought he might be. Here I am thinking how cool it would be to spit little pointy metal objects out of my mouth, but all he does is bitch about how I’m also slamming his head down and giving him headaches. He’s locked up again in the drawer now and I’m having a pleasant conversation with a half-eaten Hostess cupcake.
The goat! You forgot to tie up the goat!
Hey! You never did that for ME! And I’m YOUNGER then she is!! pouts in corner
I’ve now eaten the cupcake and am debating a cigarette butt on the merits of home schooling vs. public schooling.
Next time I work on a Saturday, I’m bringing some DVDs.
Don’t worry, I’ve got the goat right where I want her.
wow i didnt know that there were goats involved…
Just for God’s sake, don’t ask what they’re for. It’s worse than you imagine.
No, I didn’t forget.
The goat is strictly non-violent and friendly toward newbies. Also, if she’s tied up, she gets stressed and her milk production drops.
We can’t have the newbies not having any milk to go with their cookies, now can we?
OoOoOo you got me all curious now… :smack:
No, seriously. In hindsight, I shouldn’t have even brought it up. I don’t even know how old you are. You may be too young for a description of such depravity.
(Did that help putting an end to the curiosity any? )
We should have that on the front page.
THE STRAIGHT DOPE
We didn’t know there were goats involved
Okay, linkage won’t work, use this one…
I swear that isn’t a shameless plug for my crappy, not-updated-in-two-years webpage. Yahoo! won’t let me link directly 
No!!! you’ve made me even more curious…and im plenty old enough 
Oooookay…
Even though I should ask for ID, here’s a link to a thread which will clear up a reference commonly made here on the SDMB. Aha sums it up (in a nice a way as one can say it) in the second post to that thread. You’ve been warned.
[Cue ominous music]
And just a heads-up: that thread seems to be a bit old, so please for anyone reading it, don’t post to it and bump it up again.
