(additional dialogue by DRY :D)
I have many crushes on the SDMB. But I only have one favorite. With apologies to all the other fine ladies here, particularly the ones on my sig, it’s the poster I’m quoting.
I’m over 18…
I’m not supposed to have a crush…
But here goes nothing…
In no particular order…
And since I haven’t chatted with too many of these guys…
But they impress me…

I’m back, solely to add wyldelf to my list. She’s a little cutie.
And, unlike the 2 lists I’ve somehow gotten my name on, there are no conditions, addendums, or quid pro quo’s in order to be on my list. (See, so even if I wasn’t the #1 guy on the list or something like that, I don’t threaten to boot you off my list no matter what. Right, Nymysys? Of course I’m not above a little basking in my own moral superiority every now and then. :D)
Well well! I was about to straighten my tie and give zyada a seductive wink at the next get-together, and then I saw the part about “a little shy”. Nuts. Guess it isn’t me after all.
My crush list is comprehensive and broad-based (although there are a few men on it. “broad-based”…get it? Ba-dum-bum) However, there are a few who stand out even in such an illustrious group:
[list][li]Hamadryad - I was totally undone by her current SD people pages pic in the tuxedo… but even before I knew what she looked like, I was smitten by the way she puts things.[/li][li]Falcon - flirter extraordinaire. If you ever come back to Dallas I won’t let you get away without stealing at least one kiss.[/li][li]Shayna - Pleeeeeze come to Dallas so I can thank you properly for all the work you’ve done on the people pages. Plus it would be interesting to have a real-time conversation with you… the lag between e-mails is so long it’s like conversing with someone on Saturn.[/li][li]Commander Fortune - haven’t seen any posts by her in a while, more’s the pity. I was smitten when we met in Denver last year.[/li][li]Kricket - What a fox, and her lifestyle sounds so free…[/li][li]OpalCat - How do you do, Ms. Flame? I’m Mr. Moth.[/li][li]Magdalene - Anyone who writes such good mash notes and is willing to play Scrabble against me sets my chefly lil’ heart a-flutter.[/li][li]Medea’s Child & Serendipity - Gawrsh, you like me, you REALLY like me…blush[/li][li]the irresistible succubi of #straightdope chat - Every time I log on, there’s someone in there I’d like to nibble on.[/li]There are more, and I’m sure I’ll be making several panicky additions to the list as women start weeping for being excluded.
It’s easy to have crushes here in Doperland. You all are such a beautiful bunch of people. I do have a kinda special crush on one doper though. Sssshhhh, be vewy vewy quiet…it’s…it’s…[sub]psycat[/sub]. (Don’t tell her. I’m so shy!)
Plants a shy kiss on Crunchy’s cheek
Thanks for the special trip to post my name Crunchy
No conditions to making my list Crunchy (even if I am not your #1 Newbie) and you can’t get booted off it either - I have vowed to stalk you and smooch you … so beware!
That’s not necessarily a rule. I was just remarking how there are no conditions to being on my list. It’s not every day I can feel morally superior to anyone. Hell, once I even had a dream where the snake from the Garden of Eden was chastizing me for being bad. I wonder what that means. . .
And wyldelf! Woo-hoo! My first stalker! I thought all the bolding was cuz you really really really meant what you were saying. Now I learn it was just an accident.
Now, I will cry no end of tears for being left off of everyones list. I know I may be a newb, but… [sympathy ploy] Oh well, there’s no convincing you guys… [/sympathy ploy]
As for you guys, there’s not one of you left off of my list. Each and every one of you has either said something I believe in completely, something beautiful, something insightful, or any combination of the three.
All my crushes are on all of you guys, and this is to you.
S is for their sillyness.
D is for their dynamic personalities.
M is for their Mind Boggling Beauty.
B stands for board. I think.
A Totoro original.
Oh, and if people don’t know what a Totoro is, go to Nausicaa.net and look at it. It’s perhaps the cutest thing you may ever lay your eyes upon. See the movie too.
WooHoo my frst drunken post!!!
OK Nymysys and Wyldelf, I formally declare my crushes on you both!
YOu are both extraordinarily stunning and gorgeous and witty and unattainable. ::boohoo::
