The Hags of the Straight Dope

Hmm, how old do you suppose I’ll have to be in order to qualify for a category other than cute?

Not that I’m complaining, of course. :slight_smile:

I would be honored to be considered for membership in the Straight Dope Hags club. I promise to wear the title with pride.

Unfortunately, I have no clue how to post a photo online, can I send you one, Green Bean?

Nope - I haven’t had a period since the hysterectomy 3 years ago, but good try - really.

Anyone wonder why this doofus can’t get a date? OOooops, I hope I don’t get spanked for slander.

:::giggle:::

Sorry, you are in the wrong thread Iswote, why don’t you start your own club, The trolls who can’t get laid of SD?

sorry, that just sliped out. I would like to omit “the can’t get laid part” not nice to hit a man who is down (kick him it’s easier?) noooo not very nice. I stand firm on the troll part however.

Iswote, I find your comment slanderous, since I am not ugly, nor am I on the rag. You can’t just go around proclaiming people ugly, especially people you have never seen. You do not know me IRL, and perhaps I am thin-skinned about my appearance. I shall go start a thread in the Pit and whine about you now.

lswote: I left out this part, but perhaps you’ll benefit from it’s inclusion.

Same source as above:

Old Norse “haggen” meant to chop into pieces, which is what happened to sacrificial victims dismembered for a feast. “Hags” may have been priestesses of sacrifice, like the Scythian matriarchs who butchered for their sacred cauldrons and read omens in the entrails. Northmen colonized Scotland, where “haggis”, or “hag’s dish”, was made of internal organs.

WAG? These ladies were doing a valued community service.

Uncatagorized?

I’m feeling more vague now than ever.

Well, now. The paperwork never ends, does it?

Cristi CH: You are hereby welcomed into the Hags with full membership privileges. I was unsure of where to categorize you. I was leaning toward The Beautiful, but then I noticed the phallic sword and, well, your rack. So, Cristi CH, you shall be in The Sexy

RTFirefly CH: Backrubs and footrubs? You’re in like Flynn! RTFirefly shall be a full member of the Boys’ Auxiliary.

ThisYearsGirl CH: Congratulations on solving your technical difficulties. We need a crazy cat woman Hag. ThisYearsGirl CH, you are a full member, in the category The Cute.

Diane CH: Of course we would be thrilled to have you in the Hags. Most of the pictures on your page did not load, but those that did–woowee! Nice stalks! Diane CH shall be a full member in the group The Sexy.

**Lucretia **: Sure, email me a picture. And what are your qualifications?

mega the roo OH: I do believe that it was Bricker who originally said that you were “joyously cute,” no? How could a little ol’ Hag like me possibly disagree with the great Bricker?

I respectfully request permission to join the Hags. Now I don’t exactly know which category I’d fit in. You don’t have a “friend who’ll drive you home when you’re drunk” category. :slight_smile:

Ellelle CH has been re-categorized. She is now one of The Beautiful.

Well, it’s close to the Witching Hour here on the east coast, and I’m listening to the thunderstorm outside and feeling all nice and cozy, so any Hags in the immediate vicinity are welcome to drop over for Welsh Rabbit and Scotch.

(Does that get me into the Boys Auxiliary? As Willing-to-Cook-for-Chicks-Boytoy? Hee hee…beatcha, Cheffie!)

I’m only 45 minutes from the Slope, Uke. Don’t tempt me!

:::snif snif:::

I am so honored to be titled a Certified Sexy Hag, on the day before Mother’s Day. What a truly lovely gift!

:::doing happy dance:::

…Kick ass! I’m a Sexy Hag! Woohoo!..

I wanna be a Hag! Shayna helped me out with this little number:

lswote is such a big putz
That his topics keep falling in ruts
He’s a pathetic douchebag
Whose whole life is a drag
We hags’ll have fun crushing his nuts!

How was that? Am I in?

Green Bean, I emailed you a picture.

Is it normal to take something said in the pit and post it in other threads especially when the comment being quoted was apologized for? I posted a public apology for what I said. Since when do you gang up on someone for screwing up if they try and rectify it? The hags thing alone might be cute, but several posters in this thread have mentioned me as a reason they might qualify as hags so it is more than a community thing for women. It is an opportunity to get digs into me.

Please stop making jokes at my expense.

"Time wounds all heels."

Why thank you for thinking of me there, Green Bean darlin’. I am both flattered and honored to be an Orginal Beautiful SDMB Hag.

:::smiles sweetly:::

Iswote – was this your apology? Posted May 13, 9:11 p.m.

I wish this was the Pit, you’re starting to piss me off.

And I think Cthulhu would even spit you out.

No it was me reacting out of hurt that people are lambasting me for something I tried to apologize for. Is a person supposed to just lay there with their soft underbelly exposed after an apology while every evaluates the quality of the apology and points out shortcomings that continue to exist? When people criticised me I reacted. But that is all it is, a reaction. I am not the devil. I am not someone to be reviled.
