“Sane” as staying out of the noonday sun and treating venomous reptiles, alligators, and hurricanes with measured respect.
And learning the topology of interactions here on the SDMB, a project on which you seem to be making a worthy start.
Goat is primed. Squid is…missing.
Welcome! I sort of know your places. I lived in South (Maple Shade) and Central (New Brunswick) Jersey for 6 years and Gainesville, FL for one. Went to school in Philly, but born and raised in Michigan.
Naturally, I brought the squid. You might wish to disrobe for this part.
Yes, I like smart jokes and fart jokes. Puns and THAT’S WHAT SHE SAID.
Camden, but I did live in that other cowtown Fort Worth Tx
Oh yeah, I got that covered.I’ve lived thru 3 hurricanes 2 tornados. I owned large snakes years ago and can ID venomous snakes.
Goat? Squid?:eek:
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. What happened to dinner and drinks first?
I thought FL law only allowed one sane one at a time; so iffn he is sane, that makes you all (that’s the correct way to type it, right Sauron?) part of the crazy ones.
Welcome, BobBitchin’!
I’ve got family in Maple Shade…cool.
Disrobe? I knew that this goat squid thing was gonna be a problem.
I may do it,but I’m not cleaning up afterwards.
I once labored under that misconception. Turned out I was just confusing.
You might want to check out Wordman’s giant ongoing guitar thread in Cafe Society. Tons of good info there, much of which is over this amateur’s head.
Welcome, BobBitchin’ … judging from what you have said in here so far, I think you just might make it. You have already started out by not doing some of the hot triggers that mark the start of a crappy New Doper experience:
[ul]
[li]Wall of text;[/li][li]Little to no punctuation;[/li][li]Rambling post that don’t show evidence of more than a couple of brain cells;[/li][li]Waking a zombie;[/li][li]And, most importantly, you didn’t start out asking a bunch of strangers on the internet how you should handle your girlfriend’s desire to do coke while traveling with her ex-boyfriend to Timbuktu to maybe have a baby as a homework assignment.[/li][/ul]
I can’t remember where we left the squid from the last New Doper initiation.
So, welcome, and I hope your time here is a good one.
That’s what SHE said!
You’ll fit in.
Oops, my bad. The thread was started by E-Sabbath and is presently up to 98 pages.
Well this is pretty cool, I feel like everybody is coming out to see the new guy, talk about a welcome.
I’ve been lurking for a while I’ve definitely been reading the guitar thread, and I definitely saw the thread about the cokehead girlfriend, lol.
I appreciate the comments about the etiquette and such.
I’ve participated in a few other forums, but not with a varied clientele, it was always a narrow Focus so most of the posters there were like me as opposed to here with a wide variety backgrounds and interests.
And lastly DropZone, I’m pretty sure I am actually funny, but there are secrets, I’m much funnier after I have 2 drinks but if you have six drinks, I’m fucking hilarious.
But seriously after working as a guitar player, guitar tech and a roadie, I’ve wound up emceeing shows and or having to kill time because of technical problems, I’ve worked a few tough rooms full of metalheads I think I’m pretty funny.
Actually I’m just trying to impress Snowboarder Bo ,so he’ll ask me to go throw stuff in the Gravel Pit with him.lol
Welcome, welcome! As the ice cream is missing, would you like some lemon cake? I’d offer poutine, but a) it’s too hot, and b) there has been an embarassing incident involving the squid, a barrel of poutine, a large rubber band, and 20 000 rubber duckies that Sid borrowed from a commercial shoot.
Welcome. I was born and raised just west of Philly in Montco. I was in Florida once, to visit the mouse.
You should know that we have a tendency around here to make jokes about “Florida Man”, but we’ll assume that you’re an exception, since you’re not native born, were able to figure out how to create an account, and can spell and use good grammar.
