I’ve taken lots of numbers. Nobody makes me give them back. The DMV _insists_ I take a number. Am I the only person who’s ever been compelled to take anything I really didn’t want?

**Shoshana** : Perseveration is a sign of mental disorder. I have been accused of having ADD. People said I was stupid, but I proved them! Does anyone else like Futurama? Is it better or worse than Family Guy? Does anyone here want to have kids? Kids are loud. And messy. Am I a bad person? Do you believe in Hell? I hate hot places. Hypothermia is bad, too. Caffeine is good.

I don’t know why television is so important in today’s society. I hate going someplace and not having anything to talk about because I don’t know who’s screwing who on the latest sitcom. My cats don’t care.

Well, MY cats care! If Homer’s drinking Duff, THEY want duff. If Oprah’s reading it, they won’t shut up until I let 'em check it out of the library. Can somebody help me convince them that I can’t buy Smurfs at the grocery store?

Speaking of Homer, I thought \*\*Troy \*\*was a great movie! So what’s the latest on Brangelina? Have they adopted any more orphans? When I was in Catholic school, we used to buy pagan babies. Is that the same thing as adopting an orphan?

Based upon the success of [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=350800&page=1&pp=50) it is time to play again.

Ready Dopers? This is the first post:

I have been married to the same woman for the last eight years. Most of the time it has been a happy marriage, but I have recently found myself looking a pron on the internet more than usual. I may spend up to four hours a day looking a pron. Is this normal? What should I do about it?

As a person who has suffered through multiple real hijackings, I have to say triumphantly that this thread is extremely offensive and makes light of my suffering!!!

Why does somebody always complain and say we don’t consider his or her feelings when we talk about hijacking. It’s not like somebody put a gun to your head and forced you to fly this thread to Cuba.

I like Cuban sammiches.

I heard on the radio yesterday that if global warming and the melting of artic ice continues, polar bears could become extinct. Everybody thinks polar bears are so cute and cuddly, but they are in fact extremely dangerous predators.

I read on Wikipedia that polar bears can freely interbreed with brown bears and so we really don’t have to worry about them becoming extinct, since they’re really just brown bears gone blond. I edited this Wikipedia entry myself, but I’m sure that doesn’t make the cite any less valid, since I do this all the time.

I really enjoy reading want ads, especially when they are for things I already have. It makes me feel important to know people want stuff like what I have. Even if it’s old stuff that I don’t use anymore. Like silver dollars.
