Hang on. Let me mix some meds and I’ll be back here and flippin’ out in about an hour.

And why the hell doesn’t anyone stalk me?! I’ve _never_ had a stalker here! Why don’t I get a stalker? I think I’m worthy. :mad:

It’s that whole mood jacket thing, **Crunchy Frog**. . . I mean, come on . . . who could develop stalkerish feelings for someone who wore something like THAT to a wedding?

[sub]Half of you, maybe, will get that. Half of you will be utterly lost. Heehee:)[/sub]

::shakes head:: Crunchy, Crunchy, Crunchy…

Anyways, I _would_ stalk you, really, if it weren’t for the fact that I’m stalking someone already. But who knows, one day maybe I’ll get bored of **Jester** (no offense to him of course :)), and I’ll move on to you. A stalkee always needs someone…

So next time you see something move in the dark corner, it might just be me getting ready to pounce on your ass. 😃  
[sub]Or just assault you for your autograph[/sub]

**Lady Juliet** , if only you knew the jacket we were talking about. You’d know I’d never catch movement in the dark out of the corner of my eye - the jacket has blinded me, that’s why I wear sunglasses in the picture. 😉

And before anyone is tempted to do a search and find the pic of me in that tux - If you really want to see it, email me.

That’s right, whisper about the so-called “glory” of the Cubs. That way when they choke on their own ineptitude, you won’t look as misguided and gullible as those who are shouting it from the rooftops. 😉

And now back to our regularly scheduled thread, as it appears I have been sucked into _another_ hijack. (How do I always get wrapped in these? I try to behave, really I do.)

Hey, newbies - don’t fuck up and stuff, heed **Jester’s** OP. There, now the thread is back on track.

Whew! You are a _funny_ man, Mr. Frog. Very funny. That’s a good one. _wipes tears from eyes_ I haven’t heard one like that in years! Right up there with Scylla duct taping his daughter to a doorframe.

There, you see? I tried to get the thread on track only to have my character challenged in the two following posts! It’s a conspiracy, I tell you! A conspiracy!

Now where did I put my tin-foil hat…

Oh, let it go Crunchy. It’s high time that newbies learned what an alarming rate of hijacking there is around here, and what better place to teach them than in an educational thread?

[sub]Okay, I confess. I’m just glad to finally have one-up on **Crunchy Frog**. No stalkers for you, Budro.[/sub]😃

Budro?

Dammit. I must now have stalkers. If only to one-up **Jesters** one-upmanship of me.

Ok, all you ladies who are looking for someone to stalk, just keep in mind I have money and I’m willing to spend it freely. Unfortunately, that short list just about runs the gamut of my good qualities.

It’s from “Grosse Point Blank”. Bill Murray’s character had a dog named Budro, and while chasing John Cusak yells “Budro’s comin for you!” and proceeds to bark. My friends and I have taken to calling each other Budro for some reason. It just fits.

And don’t you try to warp my thread to your own twisted ends. You want stalkers, go start another thread about your balls. But if you keep tryin here, I might just have to teach the kiddies what a good ol’ fashioned SDMB ass-whuppin looks like.

Ya know, it’s just that sort of challange that prompted me to actually wear the mood jacket in public.

[Beavis as Cornholio]  
Are you threatening me?  
[/Beavis]

Besides, I don’t think I can start another thread about my balls. We’ve been asked to be a little more considerate in MPSIMS. I definitely think more discussion of my balls would be crossing that line.

I’ve been lurking here for weeks and making the odd post here or there, although I’m sure no one has noticed. Has anyone noticed me committing the transgressions mentioned by Jester in the OP?
