I’m WAY too popular to hug the likes of you… 🙂 * * * Yer pal, Satan ---

Thanks for the hug CanadianSue. And Satan’s just afraid I’ll fart when he hugs me! ---

Man, I don’t even get noticed in the unpopular threads. I’m going to have to go get implants or something so people take notice! 🙂 * * * You know what Atlas did, with the weight of the world pressing down on his shoulders, his blood running over his chest for his efforts and the world continuing to bear down without concern for his efforts?

Pulls Burn into the group hug… hmmm i could get used to this * * * We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another ---

You should all head up to Seattle and I’ll whip you all up a huge tub of Jambalaya \.

I got mentioned, but I’m sure it was something along the lines of “What do you think he does? Freebases mercury, or shoots herion into his eyeball?” (Neither, of course. I shoot up with distilled Pamolive. You’re soaking in it, indeed.) I respond to all sorts of stuff in here, and now I’m semi-popular. Satan has the right idea; random wiseass posts seem to get the best responses. 😃 * * * You say “cheesy” like that’s a **BAD** thing. ---

Pluto, I can say without a doubt that you are my favorite poster who is named after a planet. You are also my favorite poster who is named after a dog. You are also my favorite poster who has a name that begins with P and ends in O, at least up until someone decides to start using the name “Potato”. Feeling popular yet? * * * Modest? You bet I’m modest! I am the queen of modesty! ---

Gee, these self-pity threads are very effective. Group hugs; proposals, decent and otherwise; all sorts of ego strokes. I’m gonna have to try this more often. Of course my favorite posters are now everyone who posted on this thread! BurnMeUp: If we can ever put together a Puget Sound get-together let’s **not** list who we talked about. BTW if jambalaya doesn’t get them to come out of the woodwork, I don’t know what will. Sex Life Update: Nothing to report. ## Flirting Update: Ladies, I am flattered and (gulp) astonished! I think my purity score went down just reading some of your comments! “The departure of the church-going element had induced a more humanitarian atmosphere.” Dorothy L. Sayers _Clouds of Witness_ ---

Definately we won’t share names or topics we’ll just say, “Remember what we said about #31?” and then either laugh or go tsk tsk. ## Well my jambalaya has a tendancy to kill people who can’t handle hot foods, maybe I’ll have to tone it down. Magnificent to behold - Greatly to be praised. ---

Okay… how many people came to this thread wanting to leave it as a popular poster? Come on. Admit it. I do. I wonder if ending a post with one’s name is helpful? krish ---

Satan is right, its the umber of posts that makes you_familiar_ not popular…and in a week or so, it will be “kellibelkli? Who was she?” You will all forget I was ever here. ☹ ---

Yeah, Pluto, I had to be BRIBED with excellent Japanese food (thanks again, Uke) to talk about you. Seriously people, just because we didn’t talk about you doesn’t mean you’re not memorable, interesting or a jerk. Rembember, we were very drunk and there are over 2000 people registered as users. How could we possibly have covered everyone in a few short hours? ---
