I’m _BAAAA A CKKKK_! 😃 Sorry, someone had to say it. Through the benevolance of one of our fine Dopers, I’ll be here a while yet. I’m awfully glad about that. ---

I re-upped, and, without going into details, was immediately reminded of the reasons why I’m becoming increasingly ambivalent about my membership. However, the Charter Member price isn’t exactly a financial burden, and I can’t live without my **Sampiro** injections, so what the hell. Best of luck, **mouthbreather** , **Ogre** , **SisterCoyote** etal. ---

[QUOTE=Denis] It’s all good. 🙂 I was the bald, nervous guy with his wife (whom I suspected was having an affair, and voila! she was!) and two children, my lovely little red-haired daughter, and my monkey-boy little blonde guy. We did the barbecue thang at a park north of Vancouver, WA. The attendees as I remember: Czarcasm (always list the mods first), you (of course), your wife (I can’t remember her username and am too damn lazy to look it up, please forgive me, ma’am),Hunter Hawk, Aesiron, Cervaise, Fish, and a really charming, nice guy who had done a lot of business in South America. We burned up burgers, hot dogs, and Cervaise burned up a really tasty-looking piece of fish. Czarcasm also brought his fabulous “low carp” [sic] spagetti. I had a nice time. But like I said, I was rather nervous, so maybe I was kind of forgettable. I liked you and everyone there. Sorry about forgetting the names, Dopers, I’ve got a lot of things going on (of the unpleasant variety). By the way, if you remember me, do I speak in an insanely parenthetical fashion?..or is that just my own personal posting weirdness? [/QUOTE] Sorry to hear about your wife. I remember playing frisby that day, did you join in? ---

[QUOTE=Alan Smithee] _Reuping_ sounds disgusting, and re-upping is so conventional. I decided to reüp instead. [/QUOTE] Now this is what I call genuine class! Sure, I’m sticking around. 😃 ---

I reuped, and this is my first post in a year or so. I’ve thrown all of my Internet time into being a [Goon](http://forums.somethingawful.com), but I still support the SDMB’s mission and spending less than an hour’s pay to maintain my subscription is not a large sacrifice. ---

I re-subscribed, although I don’t spend much time here these days. It is sad though to see so many long time members going - especially Sunfish, who has been extraordinarily kind. Good luck to those leaving. ---

I’m not gonna, for various reasons. However, I wish all members and charter members well. Y’all have fun. ---

I’m in; I’m not smart enough to be discouraged by the alleged dumbing down of the board, plus I am a threadkiller extraordinaire…if you ever post something you wish you hadn’t, get me to post there, and it will sink like a cinder block-weighted body. Small fee required. ---

[QUOTE=alice\_in\_wonderland] I’m thinking not so much. [/QUOTE] > [@UrbanChic](#): > > I’m not sure, but I’m leaning towards not renewing. I really don’t post all that much and days will go by without me getting a chance to read the Boards. Well, shoot, if the cool girls aren’t staying… I’m not sure yet. I do waste too much time here and could use the removal of a temptation. Plus I’ve reached the state where I’ve seen it all before. And I’m kinda irritated at some recent board actions. ---

I did. I wasn’t sure if I would, since I hardly ever post, but I figured that I spend more than $7 on I-don’t-even-know-what, so why not? Maybe this year I’ll take more advantage of my posting privileges. ---
