  1. I’ve had a Pit thread devoted to me. By esprix no less. I even remember what it was about, I had a wierd writing style no one could understand. No wait I’ve had two, the other one was about some new yorker insulted by the idea that people voted for Hillary because she was Clintons wife.

Also Anthracite has Asmodean"Stupid people make baby jesus cry" in her sig. Thats about it though, do I qualify?:slight_smile:

Oh, dear. I’ve been Sding for years and dont think I’ve made it yet. I’ve said Hi to Opal and I think she turned around and said “Did you guys hear something?”
