I have a secret Doper crush on anyone who mentions my name merely so they get noticed on my daily vanity search.

Bastards.

( 😉 )

Esprix, who has a not-so-secret crush on **matt\_mcl** - but then, who doesn’t?

I have secret board crushes on **kabbes** , **Jack Batty** , **lieu** , and **Manda JO**. Non-sexual ones. In case that needed clarification.

essvee, I consider that a high honor. Did you know that the first-ever exchange between us was almost contentious? Only it wasn’t? I think it was in a pit thread, where I was talking about having only one child. You asked some questions about that, and a bunch of people ripped you a new one, but I thought they were fair questions as they completely mirrored questions we asked ourselves when we were considering family size. So I answered, and you thanked me, and a friendship was born.

Wait, that was you, wasn’t it?

Good heavens - I’ve never been mentioned in one of THESE before!

**White Lightning** , you will always have a special place in my heart. So be scared.

Yop, **OncleBiere** , it’s true. Woo Aunty Canty and become a feared and revered moderator.

It’s one of the signs of the end times.

**matt** , honey you know I only do it because I love you. :rolleyes:

Anyway, you’d mock me regardless.

P.S. Do you think nametags would be good for tomorrow night? I have stickies at home and I can write up all the guests’ nicknames on them…

I’m at work, so I can’t check, but I am willing to bet that there’s a post in the Pit about annoying “I have a crush on…” threads.

I don’t find them annoying… the word I would choose is _stimulating_.

Pleasantly surprised? Did you think I’d be a troll or something? 😉

So, **pbrtallboy** , now that you’re my first boy board crush, I want all your stats. **All** of them. 😃

Smooches,

P.S. Watch out for the final round of scott evil’s AbFab Trivia Death Match® later today… or perhaps tomorrow (boss won’t be in).

You people are so sad. Board crushes are sooo passe. SDMB stalkers are all the rage! My stalker is **Mouthbuffalo** (read mouthbreather). I even have a stalkers assistant! She is the stunning **Bad News Baboon**.

A [picture](http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1348484412) is worth 1000 words, no?
