Congratulations **mrblue92**.:)šŸ™‚ I think itā€™s hard to get notice here because thereā€™s so many people here posting. And as someone mention, flirting with someone usually works. And donā€™t forget posting drunk or tipsy.;)šŸ˜‰ ---

Canā€™t say that I enjoy excessive popularity either, but then again, I post some pretty stupid shit sometimes! Iā€™ll keep postinā€™ anyway! Chin up! May I quote from George Carlinā€¦ ā€œā€¦you can please some of the people some of the time ā€¦ fuck the rest of 'em!ā€ Hang in there, donā€™t let it bother yaā€™! Reading this thread, I can already feel the love. * * * ā€œIā€™m not lookinā€™ on the wall for the handwriting!ā€ ---

Well, I guess Iā€™ve discovered why no one has a crush on me - is it because I go ahead and post new threads without checking to see that there are other live threads on the identical topic? Oops. ---

Ho Hum. Nobody knows who I am. I am strangely addicted to the SDMB even though I am much more well-liked in my real life. Iā€™ll bring grapes, crackers and chevre to this little party. Itā€™s more my kind of party anyway. Tequila gives me aā€¦problem. Thanks, mrblue, for finding us a quiet place to pout. šŸ™‚ ---

I wander around quite invisibly, I think. I run a search based on my username whenever I come back to the boards, in order to see the action on threads Iā€™ve posted to. Not once in over a year, has my name appeared in any thread unbidden. I have made no lists. ā˜¹ I _did_ have a poster request to use a line I posted as a sig (Head swellingā€¦); but even after I said ok!, the poster never used it (Head deflatingā€¦) Iā€™ve gotten one (_one_!) unsolicited doper e-mail in over a year. Thanks **screech-owl**! Really, I donā€™t mind. I know Iā€™m not flirty. And as Iā€™ve said before, I donā€™t flame and Iā€™m not flaming; so I canā€™t expect to light up the board. ---

I may not be invisible, but Iā€™m definitely translucent. No one on the ā€œWho do you want to meetā€ thread mentioned me. But in fairness, I didnā€™t contribute to it, but still, it hurts, ya know. I have been mentioned in two OPā€™s but both were by Homer, and I think he does have a bit of a crush on me šŸ˜‰ _(just kidding Tim)_ And I have actually met a few of my fellow dopers, so I suppose I could be worse off. But, dammit, I sooo wanted to be in that thread. I got almost 700 posts in under 3 months on the board, and the majority of them are in MPSIMS. I guess iā€™ve got to try to be more magnanimous. And if that doesnā€™t work I suppose I should try to stop using words like ā€œmagnanimous.ā€ ---

(Sigh). Pushing 900 posts and nobody seems to have a clue who I am, either. May I join? Iā€™d bring some more whine but I havenā€™t been paid yet this week ā€¦ how about some raw spaghetti (crunch, crunch)? ---

I woke up Saturday morning with your name running through my head. Donā€™t know why; must be that itā€™s so interesting. I thought maybe I was going nuts (I still may be, for that matter), but seeing your name on the board makes me feel better. So, see? Youā€™re important enough to be lurking around in my headā€¦ _sigh_ I guess thatā€™s not much help, is it? ---

mrblue92, I have ten times the posts that you do. When you get a post count as high as mine, youll find no one notices you any more than if you have 600 posts šŸ™‚ PS: Whatā€™s so great about yourself that we must take notice? ---

I thought I was in the running for the title but just saw myself quoted a whole bunch of times in another threadā€¦ so this is another list I donā€™t get to be on. Perhaps there is a conspiracy against uppity Canucks? Thatā€™s it! Iā€™ll start a thread called ā€œUppity Canucksā€ā€¦ then I will be able to make one list for sure. ---

Nobody knows me. That stings a little. Math time: Iā€™ve been here a month less than UncleBeer. He has 3839 posts. I have sub-100. He posts 240/mo. on average. Checking the numbers, I must post 6 or 7 times per month. I think that if I simply post 233 more times per month, Iā€™ll get my deserved recognition. šŸ™‚ (Ahh. Sorry ChiefScottā€¦at least I remembered you.) ---
