I could probably get your names from poster listings on some of the weirder threads I’ve been party to, but I’d prefer it if you self-identify in this thread so I know it’s okay with you.

I know there are at least 50 of you, likely way more than that, that I see over and over wherever I post, and I feel as if we are in some sort of “secret society” of weird geezers who have little to do but hang out here and pretend we have a life.

Does that fit you at all? 🙂 I’m not picky about your age, either.

I like to think I have a sick sense of humor, but those damn kids keep getting sicker and sicker.

Now get off my lawn, and take the girl with one leg named Ilene with you!

Well, then, maybe this can count as your birthday party. Happy 6-0!

BTW, unique is good.

I fit numbers one and three, and while I don’t post a lot, I read here - and laugh - a lot.

Sick humor, particularly the juvenile variety, is my thing. Smart-ass comments are an art form.
