I’m jealous of Monster104 because he can jizz on people and I can’t because I don’t have a schlong like him. I wouldn’t call it penis envy, just jizz envy.

I jealous of Nocturne because she’s a hottie and I drool when I think about this.

I think I have to go jizz now.

And thank you, **hardygrrl** and **Cajun Man** , for mentioning me.

I am jealous of anyone who has been to a large Dopefest, and met lots of Dopers. Someday I hope to have the money and time to do this also. There are lots of people I would like to meet.

You know, I used to care that I wasn’t mentioned in these threads. Then I realised I wasn’t going to be in the in crowd, so why worry?

Now, I don’t give a crap.

Happy 1000th **Simetra**!

And **The Witch** - wow thank you! Flattery will get you everywhere. I’ll be watching your SDMB career with interest 😉

Dopers I’m jealous of?

**Kabbes** - his wit, intelligence and ascerbity (Did I just make that word up?) always floor me.

**Rue DeDay** - His knack for the absurd is brilliant. I’m jealous of everone whose threads he posts in.

**Redboss** - I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I wish I was half as creative and funny.

**Spoofe** - for always being well-reasoned and intelligent.

**WickedBlu** - because she has better breasts than me.

I’m not normally the jealous type, but sometimes I envy **Akatsukami** a bit. He’s so smart, and he seems just so together. Smug without actually being smug, as it were.

I’m also insanely jealous of **jazzmine** ’s husband, but I don’t think he posts here, so that doesn’t count.

Should it come to light that any of my fellow dopers have a net worth of 20 million dollars or more without working more than 20 hours per week, I would be jealous of them.

Should it come to light that any of my fellow dopers are capable of losing 1 pound per day on the same food plan I am on, I would be jealous of them.

Should it come to light that any of my fellow dopers have the secret to immortality, I would be jealous of them.

Aside from that, I feel admiration, but no jealousy.

I’m jealous of all you people for having a normal work schedule and PCs at your homes instead of having to rely on your job for internet access, thus you have the ability to post to things like this in a timely manner.

I’m jealous of **darksyde** for apparantly being sexier than me, **Superdude** , and **Jack Batty**. (thanks, BTW) 😉

I’m jealous of a vast number of Dopers who seem to be very secure and comfortable with who they are. I wish I could be so happy with myself the way I am.

So, according to some people in this thread, I am humorous, razor-tongued, well-reasoned, and intelligent.

I’ve never felt more misunderstood. 😃

I picked up this thread in my weekly and normally in vain vanity search.

**Fran** -

I’m shocked! Nobody’s ever mentioned _me_ in one of these threads before.

But you of all people shouldn’t be _jealous_. You’re bloody witty, wonderfully intelligent and if you’re not always ascerbic then frankly that can only be a _good_ thing.

I only hope that after actually experiencing the RL **kabbes** , you haven’t lost _too_ much fondness for me!

For my sake, I admire and respect many posters here for many different reasons. It isn’t my style to start naming people, so I won’t. ( **Francesca** is certainly one of them however and was long before I read this.) But I’m not jealous - instead I prefer to revel in knowing such an eclectic and brilliant bunch of people.

After all, reflected glory is better than no glory at all!

Um… Ghod, I’m speechless. The one quality you really think doesn’t belong on the board (“Don’t try to be a smartass when you’re defending the Russian Revolution, they’ll never take you seriously,” I tells meself) and someone’s actually jealous of it.

I’m touched, **MsRobyn**. Thanks, you made my day. 🙂

I’m jealous of Simetra because he has such a cool Jessica!! 🙂  
ah, there’s too many to mention, but I’ll throw in Frannie, Alex B, Coldy and Spiny for going to LA in October, and being able to see Shayna Diane and all the others I really want to meet/meet again.

Wow. I am humbled. There are no words (in my vocabulary, at least) to express how I feel.

I’m not jealous of **Anthracite** …I think. I do, however, stand in awe and admiration of her, her skills and knowledge. She’s who I want to be when I grow up.
