But just the once. For twenty minutes.
This reminds me of the joke about the guy that died and went to heaven. At the Pearly Gates he was stopped because they couldn’t find anything good he’d done recently.
He said, “What about my rescuing that cute girl?”
They said, “What girl?”
He said, "The one sitting in her convertible at a traffic light when a gang of Hell’s Angels pulled up and started teasing her and threatening her with all the nasty things they were gonna do to her.
I got out of my car and told them to leave her alone or I was gonna wrap take one of their chains and wrap it around their dirty, stinkin’ necks!"
The angels at the Pearly Gates said “Yeah, that’s good…but we don’t have it in our books. When did this happen?”
He replied, “About one minute ago.”
This is the huge dilemma of my life…
I completely agree w/ the OP. That’s why I’m a hermit. (Why else would I have so much time to post?)
I fucking hate people.
But I don’t hate fucking people.
Where do sociopaths go to hook up?
Damn, I walked all over my own joke. Please omit the first “wrap” from my joke and it will flow better.
:: walks off muttering “preview is my friend…preview is my friend…preview is my friend…”
Can you say misanthrope?
StD (std?), did you see the recent thread postings about the RealDoll? Might just be right up your alley. I won’t post the link here but Google can find her for you in a flash.
Regards…and good luck. 
Was it something we said? Would you like to tell us what happened? I can’t believe this was out of the blue like that. or did you happen to see what the police did to that girl in the riot over the baseball game?
I just saw a production of Sweeney Todd, it was excellent, thanks for reminding me.
No, it wasn’t out of the blue. Took me a couple of decades to realise it, actually.
No, I didn’t, and apparently I don’t want to.
Yes, but I can’t spell it.
Agreed, Price. Agreed.
You look for those redeeming qualities, and they’re just not there. The more people I meet, the more I want to move to my own private island.
People are a pain in the ass.
All the time you’ve been here you’ve tried to convince us you were a conservative Republican but now you are showing your TRUE colors! Take your love beads and patchouli incense and go back to Haight Ashbury, hippie!
The SDMB would make a helluva meat pie shop. But it would be an overly long menu and that in itself really hacks me off.

Just received a complementary copy of this month’s issue of *National Geographic * and it offers tons of support for Priceguy’s position, which I totally share. We’ve got

all in just one issue. There’s also stuff about arthritic cockroaches and giant biting arachnids, so overall it’s not a very fun issue in general. Don’t think I’m going to be subscribing, folks.
I am dyed in the wool misanthrope who thinks the human race fully deserves to go extinct as the price for all the species we’ve driven extinct, and for the way we treat each other and the planet.
OTOH, I took a little kid trick or treating last night. I ran into one of my students and he led us around the neighborhood to all the good houses, and boy, were they good. The random generosity and kindness sorely challenges my negative feelings. Basically, I’m really conflicted.
