serious question [about membership on the SDMB]

:confused:
Um, despite your familiarity with any number of animal species, your understanding of the conditions prevalent in the human digestive system is imbecilic and indicates a preference for American style lager served in aluminum cans! You vapid toad!

Sorry, Colibri, but he’s got a point. Not about the toad part, but about the beer. :smiley:

I for one would like to know how you manage to store beer in your digestive system.

One good reason to subscribe is so you can come back and declare me with winner of the trivia thread you started in CS.

BE CAREFUL! “Uncle Louie” reads this board and tells me that he hasn’t broken any kneecaps lately! :dubious:

Join to be in contact with some of the funniest, smartest, most helpful people around–and a handful of real jackasses. Keep in contact with people over the world! Saudi Arabia – check! Thailand – check! The U.K. – present and accounted for! Canada – I’m lookin’ at YOU, Leaffan. Plus a lot of other countries I can’t think of at the moment. Just about any question you have in GQ (about facts) or in IMHO (about people’s opinions or experiences) will be answered in a matter of minutes. Great links, great stories, great pictures of kitties – all available here! With no asinine moving, glittery avatars that make you feel like the Sanrio product line crawled into your PC and died.

Take time to learn the local culture, read the stickies, get a feel for the different forums and JUMP IN! Just keep it polite while you feel your way around, and you’ll do fine.

Don’t be fooled, though – if you stumble into a religious pissing match, make an ill-considered argument in Great Debates, or say anything bad about Firefly or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you will be savaged like an ant who climbed into the wrong anthill. You will discover that trying to have a civilized discussion with some people is just a waste of time, and that some people really don’t want their ignorance to be fought, but that goes for some people no matter where you go. Best of luck to you, and I hope you decide to join us.
