Okay i have a little question for the people of the SDMB . On a scale of 1 to 10 how much do you like the straight dope and cecil adams , 1 being that you have only read a few articles and dont really care , 10 being that you never miss a column , you spend half of your life searching the archives, and you have seriously considered naming your cat,dog,hampster,etc after cecil. and numbers above 10 are welcomed if you feel you love this place more that , I of course pick 10.
holds arms out wide
Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much!
I am shocked are there only 2 people who actually like the straight dope? this is a sad day for cecil-fans everywhere ::tears::
Straight Dope?
Eh…
I could live without it. Heck, I hardly ever come here, and I’ve never returned one of Cecil’s phone calls.
Then you get a that means that you should put your rating as aproxamitley…-700,123,748
[ul]I love the Straight Dope like a schoolboy loves his pie-
Like a Kentucky colonel loves his mint and rye…
Yes, I’ll love the Straight Dope, until the hamster dies.[/ul]
There are no words or numbers to describe how much I like this place. I’m attatched and don’t ever want to leave!!
I’m attached, too. I’ve chained myself to the server and won’t leave until the loggers cease their heartless raping of nature. Not that there are any loggers trying to chainsaw down the server, but you gotta be prepared for everything :).
well it looks like my rating system went down the crapper why dont you just use words to describe your love for the sd and our dear cecil
On your beloved (now discarded) scale of 1-10, I would say 13.
Thank you for adopting my old ways
Re the SDMB, I’m a 15. If the site did not have a message board, I’d be maybe an 8.
I’ve wondered how many people were here for the mb and not the column
I was reading the column way before the mb since i generally hate message boards
In fact I registred like the first month when the site moved from aol but it never took and i never botherd to fix it as i just read the boards …
But My writing tends to need a editor as you can see in some of my post … i do get a response occasionaly …
anyway im rambling
