[QUOTE=meek] I dunno **Rick** , I don’t think she has Steak & a BJ Day marked on the calender. And - At the rate I’m going, I’d be lucky to get tofu and a handshake. AGAIN! Dang - you people are vicious! Now **I’m** scared of clowns. **LOUNE** , I can’t Buddy, I made a deal. She didn’t win. It was a tie. We had a lot of laughs talking about it though. And later she kissed me and told me it was her most memorable V-Day in her life. So - I \*think \*I am out of the doghouse for now. . [/QUOTE] I think you need something very minor to show that you still mean business. Something like drawing a little evil-face balloon on the corner of the section of the paper she likes. Just something to give her a reminder. ---

[QUOTE=Least Original User Name Ever] I think you need something very minor to show that you still mean business. Something like drawing a little evil-face balloon on the corner of the section of the paper she likes. Just something to give her a reminder. [/QUOTE] Well ya know… In my deal offer I said that I promise not to scare her or buy her anything like that in the future. (or buy anything clownish) I didn’t say anything about getting _someone else_ to scare her, say an office coworker or something, and having that person buy something clownish and putting it it her office cubicle storage bin. Hmmmmmmm - Just a thought. Maybe next V-Day! hehehe ---

Something like drawing a little evil-face balloon on the corner of the section of the paper she likes. Just something to give her a reminder. [/QUOTE] Let me expand on this idea : in addition, you should inscribe the number of days remaining until V-day, but for maximum effect, I would suggest to do that **randomly**. ---

I’d say you should get the **meek** -ess to join us, but that would probably ruin somebody’s fun. ---

I don’t know how I missed this thread. That was hilarious! My co-workers are used to hearing me laugh like crazy at random while reading this board, though this took the cake. I needed the laugh, the last few days haven’t been cheerful for me. Thank you for being wonderful. 😃 ---

[QUOTE=TroubleAgain] I’d say you should get the **meek** -ess to join us, but that would probably ruin somebody’s fun. [/QUOTE] I asked her if she wanted to join wayyyyy back when the board became a pay site. She works on a computer all day and just likes to watch TV and chill when she gets home. I keep telling her about this place but she doesn’t seem all that interested. I have also been relaying some of the nice comments made towards her. She cracks up when I read them to her. She may join one day, even if it’s just to spy on my V-Day plans for her. But I doubt if she wants to see those clown links and threads though. 😃 . ---

[QUOTE=Asimovian] Originally Posted by TubaDiva on a date in the near future… It is with great sadness that we mourn the recent passing of Doper meek.

Although his girlfriend was too emotional to comment, other family members expressed shock, as meek had been in excellent health. There was but one other oddity found in the police report – officers responding to the scene noted that there was a strange-looking balloon peering over the back seat of the car in what one detective referred to as a “menacing manner.” Still, no foul play was suspected.
