Soda is evil. Soda is the antichrist. Soda is bad. Bad soda, bad. No, down with soda. DOWN! Don’t eat the yellow snow, don’t eat the yellow snow!

Apparently no one is really Soda-neutral either…WTF?

Welcome, Stormi.

Agalrond, where do you live?

Some things should not be joked about.

However, I still like you, so I’m going to warn you not to make jokes about the Beatles to pepperlandgirl. 😉 She’s kind of fond of Sting too.

Hi Stormi, you got Audrey’s icee/slurpee question wrong, but that’s okay, you can sneak into [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33485) and make it up to her.

And let me add my little questionaire.  
Who’s your favorite author?  
Your favorite book?  
Your favorite color?  
Your favorite drink?  
And how many does it take for you to get drunk?

🙂 Have a fun time, don’t drink through the felching straws. (Unless you want to, of course.)

Sigh. Yet another very cute female doper. It does not get better than this place.

Now, Stormi, you must send a picture (clothes are optional) to [sdpeoplepages@yahoo.com](mailto:sdpeoplepages@yahoo.com) so we can all fawn and gaze accordingly.

I suppose it would be too much to ask for you to have a female child c. 17 years old? Thought so.

BTW, hi.

Musical Artist or Wrestler?

Okay, while others are content in making trivial inquiries, I can see that you’re a woman of greater substance. Therefore, I will take it upon myself to offer up the question that has been on everyone’s lips, but until now has been avoided:  
"Who was the better Darrin on “Bewitched?”  
There. I said it.

Oh! A bewitched question! I loved that show when I was younger. Then I wanted to be a witch when I got older -  
and sometimes my husband says I am 🙂

The first Darrin.

Stormi,

Welcome to the SDMB. I’m andygirl. My questions:

1. What, if anything, do you think about hermit crabs?
2. I’m thinking of a number from one to ten. What is it?
3. Are you aware that spotted dick is a British food? Do you find this interesting?
4. Do you have any eccentricites that you’d care to share with us?
5. In your opinion, does Delaware exist?

Enjoy. 🙂

Anthracite -  
will have to check into that army, see what it’s about.  
The ‘unholy’ part scares me!

Hi Andygirl  
here’s my answers :

I think they are cool looking  
6 ?  
never heard of spotted dick… are you sure its a food, and not a disease?!  
hmmm… wondering if I should share that part of me…  
I haven’t been there yet, but I’m sure it exists.

Sassy - if I join, I will ask you to join, ok?  
🙂

Hey hey, Stormi! Welcome! You posted your greeting in General Questions? Count yourself among the lucky. The first thread I tried to start belonged in the In My Humble Opinion area, and I put in the BBQ Pit.  
\<shudder\>  
Sometimes, at night…I can still here the screaming.

Anyway, welcome from a fellow newbie! Hope that your stay is long, happy, and not resultant in intensive therapy!
