That’s what this girl I know said. Anyway, I wonder if I’m on a whole bunch of people’s ignore list, 'cause my threads never last long, and hardly anyone wanted to help me out of my [cellphone crisis](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=224296) (I had to go a whole day without a phone :(). So I’ll just check and see how many views this one gets. I’ma be mad if it’s less than a hundred :mad: . ---

OK, here’s a useless post to boost your count. At first look, I thought you said “cellophane crisis”. Had me wondering. ---

Actually, only pistachio, rum raisin and spimoni are for dumb people. Chocolate marshmallow, mint chocolate chip, and peppermint, these are for the intellectual elite. ---

**I wonder if I’m on a whole bunch of people’s ignore list** Well, you weren’t before. :rolleyes: A whole day without a phone? Somedays I leave my phone unplugged all day. I don’t have/want a cell phone. If you’d asked us what kind of pie do you like? You’d get plenty of attention. BTW, I like pecan (pie or ice cream) with a strong cup of coffee. I must be superdumb. 😉 gotta go…hamsters are dying ---

Did someone start this thread? 😉 Actually I have noticed you as a poster. Didn’t reply to your cellphone thread since I do not know anything about them. I have read other posts by you; in fact I generally seem to agree with your viewpoint. You come across as a likeable person. I also remember a few odd threads (when you visited Rome, and about a game you played with your mother). Didn’t bother to reply then, but they did provide some amusement value. 🙂 BTW: I strongly disagree with the title. I take it you do to? ---
