Misfits of the SDMB

I was a cheerleader in high school.

I was even on the top of the pyramid.

Sounds to me like y’all fit in w/ each other pretty good.

As for myself, I drive an old '65 Ford pickup…w/ a gun rack and actually do carry a sawed off shotgun. I smoke big 'ol cigars and drink straight Cuervo Gold. I’m an old fashioned headbanger who loves Harley’s and fishing.

I quit punching a clock in '83 and partied steady 'til New Years Eve 1999 millenium night, got married that night. Once and only time! Decided then it was about time to settle down…hmmm? Started college at 38y/o. Did my U/G & Grad studies in 3 1/2 yrs. Taught for awhile…decided to go back to REAL work…bustin my ass for peanuts, but screw the god-damned politics.

ooops…sorry 'bout that, kinda went on a little rant there, huh?

Anyway, I never watch “The Simpsons”, “rap-m-u-sick” sucks, and I still don’t know how to burn a CD.

I’d much rather listen to Hank Williams Jr.
So, how well do I fit in with you all? :eek:

I write letters and post them in the mail.
I don’t know what those capital letters mean on this Board( i.e. IRL. IIRC.BTW…)
I just plugged in the computer and hoped it worked.

I really, really like clothes from Old Navy.

I can’t stand most of the movies that people really like here, Citizen Kane, The Godfather.

I hate the Beatles.

I am in the middle of LOTR, but do find it long winded, I will finish it though even if I do only read 10 pages a day.

I don’t really go for SiFi unless it’s a good story, I could care less about the science part.

I don’t even want to talk about my SAT scores, which are probably one of the lowest on the boards.

I like the really stupid movies, especially Freddy Got Fingered.

and the one that will put me over the top, I have read and enjoyed Ayn Rand many many times, and will do so again!

Where to begin?
I just found out that the ‘TAB’ button doesn’t work the way I’ve always used it.
‘Enter’ does. (and ‘BACKSPACE’)
I became a member over three weeks ago, though I’ve known about this site since 19 ‘friggin’ 98, and on my first venture onto the web managed to so overload the computer’s memory that I couldn’t get the thing to work until my girlfriend’s father fixed the damn thing. (something about de-fragging and cookies)
I was stoned when I took my S.A.T.s (the morning after a Jerry Garcia Band concert)
I frequently get lost and end up loosing this site when trying to go between the main page and the message boards.
It’s taken me over 45 min. to post this!

Sorry about that. I was trying to simply quote the one part about “I have read and enjoyed Ayn Rand many, many times, and will do so again!”

      How was she?

I’ve never read Tolkein.

The very concept of Star Trek makes me giggle.

I’m very happily married.

I don’t have the energy for Great Debates or General Questions.

I’m too shy to consider going to a Dopefest.

I don’t even know who Ayn Rand is.

I’ve only watched South Park once and don’t even know when it’s on.

In college I wore Laura Ashley dresses and pulled my hair back in barrettes with huge bows on them.

I am a member of the Junior League.

I’ve met many male Dopers but have never shown my cleavage to any of them.

I have no interest in the Lord Of The Rings, Star Trek, Star Wars, Buffy, The Simpsons, Monty Python, any sort of Hitchhiker’s Guide, or RPGs. I didn’t even know what in hell “RPG” meant until someone told me last year.

I must have missed the “cow-orker” joke, and “Hi Opal” was played out after Day One.

I manage to survive just fine when the SDMB has been hacked, flooded, folded, spindled, or mutilated. And no, I don’t hop over to another message board instead.

I’ve never cut or slashed myself, nor do I have any piercings, tattoos, swords, maces, Spock ears, chain mail, Ren Faire costumes, or thoughts of suicide, bisexuality, or rapture.

I don’t swoon and fawn in type over a moderator or “esteemed” member.

I have never asked anyone for a “CITE PLEASE?!?!?”.

I just don’t see how people can hurl insults in The Pit, behind the anonymity of a keyboard, when they’d likely never say such things to someone’s face. I also can’t understand how people get so worked up over words, be it The Pit or Great Debates. Sheesh, it’s just a message board!
That said, this is still a fun place. I don’t feel that any of this makes me, or anyone else around here, a misfit. It’d be pretty dull if we all had the same interests!

Sadly, this makes you quite normal.

I’d like to see Bill Shatner encrusted in vomit.

I’ve neither read nor watched any LOTR tale.

I don’t think Brittany is particularly attractive.

I do think Anne Archer sizzles.

I hate post lists.

Lamar Mundane–that doesn’t make me enough of a misfit to fit in here?:confused:
Well how bout this?
I listen to disco…and like it.
I drool yes drool over Barry Manilow and damn near peed my pants when I got tix to his concert last year.
I have owned websites in the past dedicated to both Jem(the cartoon from the 80’s)and CATS(the musical).
I currently own a website for Disneyholics.
When I die,I want to be cremated and used as fertilizer in the flowerbed around the Partners statue at WDW.
I enjoy watching Iron Chef and Good Eats on the Food Network.
:slight_smile:

IDBB

I work at a nuclear power plant. I hate the Simpsons. I carry a gun for the next person who asks me if I know Homer Simpson.
I like Star Wars.
I hate pro football.
I love Duke Basketball
Night At the Roxbury is one of my fav movies.
I hate movies that are made from book scripts. The book is always better and the movie is always a disappointment.
I still think Robert Redford, Paul Newman, and Clint Eastwood are totally sexy men.
I love the Pit and that’s where I usually hang out even if it’s gotten a little stupid there right now.
I like country music.
Music of the past is better than today’s music.
I usually date a guy for only a couple of months before they bore me.

What’s an SAT??

I am Weird, most definately, oh and I like the Coral.

[ul][li]I have never suffered a major injury, or even been to hospital for treatment of any kind;[/li][li]My parents divorced amicably, and I have no problematic relationships with any family member;[/li][li]I have never suffered a painful break-up;[/li][li]I enjoy most kinds of music, including disco;[/li][li]If the internet disappeared tomorrow, I’d be fine with it;[/li]I can’t think of anyone who I really hate.[/ul]

Hey. I’m not a lumberjack, or a fur trader.
And I don’t live in an igloo, or eat blubber, or own a dogsled.

And I don’t know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I’m certain they’re really, really nice.

I have a Prime Minister, not a President.

I speak English and French, NOT American. and I pronounce it ‘ABOUT’ NOT ‘A BOOT’.

I can proudly sew my country’s flag on my backpack. I believe in peace
keeping, NOT policing. DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation, AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL.

A TOQUE IS A HAT, A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH, AND IT IS PRONOUCED ‘ZED’ NOT ‘ZEE’, ‘ZED’!!!

CANADA IS THE SECOND LARGEST LANDMASS! THE FIRST NATION OF HOCKEY! AND THE BEST PART OF NORTH AMERICA!

MY NAME IS FEATHERLOU!! AND I AM CANADIAN!!!
I mean, I AM A MISFIT!!!

Thank you.

Alright sobs I’m not much of a misfit. I admit, I have a tattoo, I love to role play, I love Hitchhiker’s Guide and Monty Python…

But honestly. I can live without tv. My roomie wants me to hook it up but I keep putting it off. We have 5 channels! Why do we need more? And I’m not good at coding… see? That is my best.
