Harumph!

Look at my registration date.

Look at my post count.

I’m practically a rookie!

i feel like SUCH an underachiever… my posts are neither prolific or productive. ☹

on the other hand, every post gets me closer to **Handy** … not much closer, but closer. [/pathetic encouragement of self]

Lord have mercy on my soul for I am illiterate. I misread Badtz post when he said he felt sorry for those who posts _more_ than he does.

But don’t assume that because I post less frequently than you that I must have a life. I can assure you that that is not true!

I think that to put things in perspective one should look at the fact that I got here a month before Spoofe and he has nearly five times the posts. I usually post something nearly every day and must conclude that Spoofe must be chained to his keyboard.

Although my count is a meager 1600 posts, every one of them is more than a worthwhile read… really. 🙂

Have you no respect for posters who aren’t exactly REGS anymore who are over the 1k mark? I’ve probably had 1000 posts longer than most of the over 1k crowd has belonged to the SDMB.

Nah, I’m just seriously lacking anything even remotely resembling a life.

\<— nuther 1000 poster.

I love to catagorize things. We could have lots of fun finding other ways to catagorize dopers.

For instance I know I am one of 2 dopers named after the Egyptian gods (Anubis being the other). Then you could also list the Greek ones, Roman ones etc. Then you could list those with pun names. Those with verb names etc.

Or you could look at some freaky posters. For instance **dunl** has 1 post, but his last post was _dum dum dum_ never. **jkeene** however has him beat, 3 posts with his last one never. Wierd huh?

Hey **Cranky** , if you don’t mind hanging with a “lower post-count” guy, I’m _almost_ at 3k!

\<sigh\>

No…I suspect that a woman of your quality can’t settle for someone with a lower post-count. I must redouble my efforts! I will quit my job and shame my family and friends to post enough to meet your standards!

sigh, now I have to explain myself. I had seen SPOOFE’s post where he went to make a smilie but it came out like this (:)) So I decided to see if the sub command would move the smilie down and make it look like he wanted too. ([sub]:)[/sub]) Like that. Only instead of hitting prewiew I hit submit, sigh.

Um, **Kamandi,** I think you inadvertently omitted [our humble TubaDiva](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?action=getinfo&userid=32) from your listing. She should be in the 2000+ category. [Aside - the most senior mod only has 2006 posts?]

I think lots of choccie and flowers would be in order - one doesn’t want to offend one of the board goddesses…

[sub]Piper continues to play the game[/sub]

Yup. You used to hang around more, just after the migration from AOL, when I was just lurking - 'cept I misread your name at first - took me the longest time to notice that you were **tenn** hippie, not **teen** hippie.

which I finally got straight just about the time you changed your name to **TN** \*hippie.
