The closest I ever came to being included in anything “popular” was back in High School. I was nominated (but not elected) to be the person most likely to argue against the atomic theory.
They were going to have a category: Person most likely to end up with a broken nose. I was a sure fire win for that one, but they decided to exclude it (they never revealed the vote results, but I am pretty sure I would have won).
Yeah, I’m never on those lists either, but I don’t really expect to be. I’m one of those people that just lurks around here every day, reading things. I rarely post, so I’m easily forgotten. However, I always check those threads…just in case…! I have seen almost ALL of you on this thread before, and I’ve found you all to be very interesting and memorable.

By “seen” most of you before…I mean on the message board. Contrary to popular belief, I’m not a voyeur. Wait, that was never a popular belief…ah, forget it.

You all think it’s bad not being mentioned in other threads? Try this one on - I’m a thread-killer! Seriously! I’ll even bet that no one posts after this one. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. ::

I thought threadkiller was my job. I know this is paranoid, but for awhile I thought I must be on the “blacklist”. The very first post I made was slammed and then the thread name was completely blanked out. It’s still there (I think), but there is no title anymore. Blank…
It’s gotten better since, but I have been known to kill a few threads. I just keep pretending I don’t notice and post when I feel so inclined.

Looks like Falcon just became one of the popular kids (on the “poster you’d like to meet for coffee” thread)! I guess she won’t be associating with US any more …
I never expected 50 responses in less than 24 hours. HOORAY FOR THE UNPOPULAR! We are the TRUE Teeming Millions!
Anyone else notice that in any of the “Posters” threads, the same 20 people keep getting named? It is like high school all over again! Friggin’ oligarchy…
I have personally never posted a response in those threads because I don’t want anyone to feel left out, and well…I just find them inane.
YOU should talk, Suze. I’ve been a moderator on the old AOL board AND a moderator here AND a contributor to the mailbag and I sTILL never get mentioned!
Well i wasn’t mentioned in the popular list either. But the unpopular list has gotten the most responses, so this one rocks, the other doesnt :). I guess i just dont have anything really witty or inventive to say :).
