Any gun thread will usually have me (with very minor contributions) and **Unclebeer, ExTank, SenorBeef, Kalashnikov, Anthracite, Johnny LA and Padeye** , and our esteemed adversaries **minty green, Diogenes the Cynic, occ, and jjimm**. ---

Blown & Injected and myself, on just about any car discussion, usually, but not always, on opposite sides. Myself, computer, anime, comics, some movies, TV(Buffy). Any geekery. Fenris, comic books. I think Chaim might just show up in a comic book thread as well. ---

Parenting threads: CrankyasanOldMan, who has really helped me out numerous times, Hamadryad, bodypoet, EJsGirl, and so many more, I cannot think of all of them. I’m really grateful for their help, now if they could just come and babysit for me for Valentine’s Day, life would be perfect. Middle East-Related: me and istara! Yay for us! Although, I must say, I’ve given up opening some of them, as I’ve got enough frustration in life as it is. Anything related to France: clairobscur (Where the heck has she gone? She was so wonderfully full of good information!!??!!) Medieval Things: maeglin ---

Me: any thread in which Dopers are invited to share stories of their own stupidity, cats, pre-teens, ghosts or 1970s music. Once upon a time I’d have shown up in gun threads and gay rights threads, but I’ve learned not to beat my head against the wall anymore. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Shayna \* > \*\ ***Scotticher** will always show up in any thread where someone needs a hug, a prayer or congratulations. (She’s such a sweetie!) \*\* Thank you SO for the MUCH too kind words, darlin’. I think it should be mentioned, however, that you are just a TAD bit prejudiced…seeing as how you ARE my best friend and all. For which I am profoundly grateful. I should add, however, that I post in those kinds of threads because I care about this community, and the people IN this community. If someone is hurting, I hurt FOR them. I know that given the limitations of the situation, there isn’t much I can do. So I try to do the little I can. I wish I could do more. After I win the lottery, I WILL do more, I PROMISE! 😃 Thanks, **Shayna** my love! Cheri ---

**Rico** will be found in anything directly or remotely connected with **music, radio, ham radio,** any type of **wireless communication** or all things **Mormonism**. He also enjoys **cars** so although I haven’t noticed that … that i remember anyway, I’m sure you’d find him there too. Especially if it was about **older cars**. And the cherry on top, he’ll show up in a **variety** of threads that have no commonalty as he has such diverse interests besides his “specialalites”. Having said this, I wouldn’t be at all suprized if he rolls his eyes at me when he sees this. 😃 ---

I also have to add that **hardygrrl** has to be in threads about wrestling and credit fraud or just credit questions. I always try to show up in what I call “worry” threads. The folks that need the help I can’t give, and the only hugs I can give are in brackets…so I worry. Those are my threads. I hate it when I don’t see one. I try to offer hope or consolation. I know how it feels to be scared and/or worried and/or terrified…and I like to at least acknowledge other people that are in those predicaments.
