to point out the boards seem flat…kinda like a soda (or beer for those that know me) that has been sitting out too long.

Any ideas on how to get this place going?

My 5th post and already I’m sounding stupid  
I feel like a newborn calf trying to stand up on wobbly legs…

Someone tell me this feeling will pass ☹

Don’t worry, it will.

It will take you time to get to know the personalities around here…

Well at least **flat** is way better than sloppy. And it has nothing to do with beer. 😉

Yeah, just so you know, I’m a dick and no one likes me.  
This should set you straight.  
So watch out for me, because I am very narrow minded and prejudiced. And I can’t spell very well.  
I don’t often speak my mind, neither does Byzantine or Coldfire, and that Glitch guy couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag.  
Techchick68 is mean, and purplebear never has anything positive to say.  
Everyone hates WallyM7, too, way way more than me even.  
Never listen to Bricker, Alphagene or Singledad, they don’t know anything, and kellibelli never posts anything mundane or pointless, so always be serious when addressing her.  
SwimmingRiddles and Mega the Roo are not very attractive, and Chef Troy can’t cook to save his life.  
Aha is not funny.  
Neurro Trash Grrrl is both unfunny and stupid, and a blonde cheerleader slut to boot.  
Opalcat does nothing to enrich this board, and Satan is a dumb-ass newbie.

## There are many more people on the Dope, but they don’t do anything, and I hate this board and never come here. Everything about it sucks. And cheese dip.

. . . and NothingMan never posts in the middle of the night.

Back to the OP. Perhaps some nude pics of Doctor Laura would help . . . HEY ! OWW ! OK, leggo leggo, just kidding. Sheesh.

For **real** fun go to the pit and flame either Lexicon, Satan, or Wally. It’s cool. Really. Try it.

Hey Ghost…just a little FYI…Lexicon is just being the goofy guy he is…all of what he said is just the opposite, however I can be mean. Well, okay I am horrible at it.

You are so full of it, Lex. Socko is crazy about me. He even started a thread about me, which is more than you got. And CalifBoomer digs me too.

Putz.

Just reading a Wally post makes my skin itch.

Other than that, he is a fine member of this community.

Also, it is probable that the majority of regular posters here would qualify both as a genius and as a mental patient. That is a lovely combination.

I’ll just post now to complete _The MPSIMS Musketeers_.

I always wanted a cool nickname. Even if I had to make it up. And share it with two others.

I’ve noticed the same thing, Techchick, and have been doing my damnest to liven things up by tossing the many and varied problems of my social life (or lack thereof) to the board as fodder.

What, Clog Boy ain’t a good enough nickname for ya, Coldfire? It amuses me.

**Ghost** said: _I could tell some ghost stories if that would help_ but then recanted with, _My 5th post and already I’m sounding stupid_.

Actually, I thought your original post was pretty clever. No need for an apology–carry on, keep up the good work, etc., etc.

Only no one hardly has come over to play. ☹

\<purplebear hops up onto table, and starts slowly swaying her hips to the beat of music that only she can hear, showing how coordinated she…AAACKKKK!..thud.  
I’m alright, really. No, really. I _meant_ to do that,\>

Lexi, dear: LOL! Please stop trying to scare the newbie away. I always give you a hug, and anyone else who wants one\<just 'cause I like to touch people, and that one guy got offended at,…well, never mind…\>

NothingMan: Sheeesh! yourself! Tsk, tsk. So, you’re into older women, eh? Well, I’m older, I think, andI notice you didn’t ask for _my_pic to post. Hhmmpf!

GuanoLad: I agree, you first!! I prefer the full frontal and side view, BTW. 😉

Wally: I adore you, especially since you gave me this wonderful sig line! 🙂

Mully: Thank you, how kind of you to notice. I’ve been trying very hard.

Coldy, dear: I came up with a nickname for you, it’s _whisper_. How’s that?

SR: Hey! nothing about you is mundane, I mean after all, like the time you told us about…_whisper_…oh, wait. That was someone else. Never mind…
