You know, I’ve seen a few of your other posts (The Eternal Thread), and I have to say…Your not a very calm kiwi;)

Perhaps calm for a kiwi?

I mean, if I was small, fuzzy and green on the inside, I might be inclined to be less than perfectly harmonious with my surroundings. 😃

Or… not.

You have a rather minor rant, IMHO. But it is a rather intriguing mystery. If you just want to let off steam, and get the peanut gallery noisy, you are in the right forum. If you want a plausible answer, I suggest ATMB.

Rather minor? Shit you are kind! I didn’t really require an answer I just needed to get a clue and be more observant, but thanks for the advice 🙂

I propose we post this thread as a sticky to point to whenever some asshole of a newbie starts complaining that people are mean to him/her because s/he is a newbie and the clique isn’t nice to newbies.

See? Dopers are nice. Even to newbies. Even in the Pit.

Welcome to the SDMB, **calm kiwi**. I decided the other day that I shall move to your fine country. I hope you all don’t mind too terribly much.

I don’t mind even the teeniest bit if you move here. I’m ready for the guided tour bit even.  
The kiwi is feeling all calm and loved now 🙂
