Let’s play Pic-a-Dope!
Pick, at random, a Doper who you never have directly posted to, and say Hi, introduce yourself, and/or say whatever you feel like saying. It can be kind of an online Dopefest! Have fun! Go crazy! wheeeeeee!
I pick Rilchiam Hi! How goes it? Where you from? I’m MSK. So, have you ever tried screwing a peeled banana into a table lamp and turned the switch on? If so, what happened?

I’m BNB or Babs or the baboon.
I havent been here long enough to have one nickname.
anyway:
I love your name and I am picturing an organ grinder’s monkey with red satin pants with little blue bells sewn onto the hem

your name rocks!
Hi MagicalSilverKey! I thought I’d be corny and give a big HI to the person who started the thread!
And this is kind of hijacking, but, hi Violet! I keep running into your posts everywhere and you’ve been here only a day more than me but have like a gazillion more posts.
Hehe Hi Asylum. Nice to make your acquaintance. 
Hi, MSK! No, I’ve never plugged in a banana, but I’ve heard Penn and Teller explain how to plug in a pickle!
Circulating…
Hi, thinksnow! It’s 90 degrees and our AC decided abruptly to stop working. So I’m thinking “snow”!
Howdy, C K Dexter Haven. I’ve always wondered about your name, but not enough to be bothered to ask, so…what’s the “C K” stand for and why not just go with “Dexter?”
That’s a nice gig you’ve got, if a little cushy. I suppose someone has to do it, though.
Well, nice to meet you.
Just in case he doesn’t wander in this way:
C. K. Dexter Haven was a character Cary Grant played in *The Philadelphia Story*.
Excellent movie – Kate Hepburn, James Stewart and Cary Grant. You can’t go wrong, I highly recommend it.
It’s been a year or so since I’ve seen it last, I’m not sure they ever said what the “C.K.” stands for, but if they did, I’ve forgotten.
Hi, Duck Duck Goose!! – you are my Google Goddess. 
Well I’d like to give a nice big Hello to Rue. Your threads are just peachy, and never fail to make me laugh.
You seem like the friendly, exciting, super-cool uncle type.
By the way, hiya Rilchiam. Am I going to see you this week at DTF?
Well, Mauvaise stole mine–I think DDG is just dreamy–but I can rebound from this. I’m going to go against type and say hi to a guy. Hi iampunha! Your funny posts make me laugh, and your serious posts make me think, and your tragic posts make me tear up. Just wanted you to know you’re appreciated.
Whut in thu hell . . . someone noticed me and it wasn’t because I flirted with them!
Evidently I’ve made you either laugh, think and/or smile at least three times (collectively, of course). All I can say to that is . . .
Wait, no. There aren’t enough monkeys and the typewriters would call it quits.
But it’s nice to know I’m appreciated by those with whom I don’t flirt every half-chance I get:)
A big “yo” goes out from me to . . . hmm . . . Waverly.
[magic 8-ball]
It is decidedly so.
[/magic 8-ball]
Waverly, from what I’ve seen of your GD, MPSIMS and Pit posts you’re a fine addition here and a better fighter for The Cause than I could ever hope to be.
Just gotta work on that post count;)
DTF? Unless it’s in LA, no (sorry).
hey, LindyHopper, never saw you before before but since everyone else i know i’ve posted to directly may as well post a hello to you.
nice shirt. where’d ya get it?
do you like cats? if ya do, great! if ya don’t, well, darn.
me me me me me??!???!
oh wait nevermind…
<sighs>
Well, gosh, thanks, Cougs! Nice to see you. It’s just that I didn’t get to the Cocktail Party until late, and it seemed to be going along fine, so…
This shirt? Goodwill, I think, although it was new when I got it (the Goodwill in my town sometimes sells new stuff cheap). I’ve gotten some of my best swing stuff at Goodwill and Salvation Army.
I do, in fact, like cats; I have three of them (Alex, Tequila, and Fruitcake). They’re about 11 years old. I also like dogs (2 of them), though, so go figure…
I kept in the important parts.
Anyway, thanks. I’ve never been so ashamed to be so late to a thread. Hope you get to read this, my fellow fanatic of all things simian. See you around.
Oh no. I knew this would happen. I’m blushing.
Hi GingerOftheNorth I’m posting to you cause you always make me laugh…(feck now I feel stupid) and ummmm I like your posts.
For as long as you and I have both been here, I don’t think I’ve ever spoken directly to you. Just wanted to let you know that I truly admire you. You really do rock!
Hello, Persephone, eirroc,Monkeypants, LindyHopper, Rye, Cougarfang, Rilchiam, iampunha, Lady Juliet, Mauvaise, Asylum, Bad News Baboon. Nice to meet you all.
I also really enjoy DDG, but I’ve addressed her on a couple of threads where she attempted (bless her heart)to address my bizarre neurosis, so she didn’t qualify by MSK’s rules.
Hi FireUnderpantsBoobs. Your name makes me smile, and it pushes the message off the side of my screen. Have a great day!!
