See what you’ve done, **the thread killer**? You’ve started thousands of Dopers wondering 'bout “Quee”. Good start! Welcome to the SDMB. Any friend of **Cougarfang** is a friend of ours. ---

Cheer up! 🙂 \*\* Well, I think **Cougarfang** lives in Taiwan. So it’s possible she’s got friends from places like that. Maybe _quee_ is sort of Chinese? (Just going with the benefit of the doubt theory here, let’s not beat up the new kid until s/he’s had a chance to explain) Hi **the thread killer** , any friend of **Cougarfang** ’s is, well, apt to be furry. Welcome. ---

_Gapes in astonishment_ I didn’t think you’d register _today_! Dagnabbit, I even had a nice introductory thingamajiggy all ready to post, and here I find you already posting. Argh! Anyhoo, I’ll just wait for White Lightning to come along with his wonderfully enlightening newbie-informing posts (which cover much more than I can ever remember or look up). Bosda, we both come from Taiwan, which is a teeny little island on the largest ocean of the planet Earth, along the coastline of the biggest continent (IIRC). Ice Wolf, I wouldn’t be so sure of that last statement… _cackles evilly_ 😃 [sub]Whadya mean I need a psychiatrist? Huh? Little punk… _trails off into incoherent mumbling_[/sub] Upon preview: Shibb! You took the wind out of my sails! :mad: [sub]Furry? Hmmm… :p[/sub] Oh, and about the “quee” thing… I asked her about that this morning (for us), and she wouldn’t tell me. Well, now I’ve found out, albeit by a rather circular route… 😛 ---

(All-right!!! All-right!!! I’ll tell everyone the truth - Both cougarfang and I know each other, but dont get any ideas! We’re from different planets!) _eep_ Hides behind Shibb No need to be violent, eh, kitty??? ---

Aw, **Cougarfang** … you’ll make me blush. It doesn’t work anymore! Half the threads I used to link got lost in the Exodus, and the links to the other half don’t work (because of the software conversion, I presume). I’ve been meaning to get around to revising my spiel, but I’ve been too lazy. Hopefully this unexpected bit of recognition (I’m tickled!) will be enough to motivate me. For now, let me say hello to **the thread killer** , and you should [go get welcomed](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=68583). No one’s had a proper welcome in over a month. [sub]Also, don’t forget to have a look at the sticky FAQs at the top of ATMB: [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=106617) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=103503).[/sub] ---

Are you sure you are new? Or maybe I’ve seen you in other parts eh? I know Ive heard of threadkiller before. In fact I was beseeching you to appear and do your thing in the pit the other day and here you are all brand new and covered with dew and peeking out from underneath the cabbage leaves. A precocious newbie you are too. Welcome!
