I sometimes wonder if **Astro** isn’t my doppelganger. 90% of the time he’s thinking _exactly_ what I’m thinking. ---

Well, me, Draelin, and Anastaseon often come into the same thread within seconds of each other and post very similar things. But other than that, I’ll say the entire MMP gang. There! And we’d be called Rue’s Children or something. ---

I don’t think I’m in one. I guess I’m a maverick, a lone wolf, a mysterious wanderer, a dangerous loner, an eccentric hermit, a kind of Bugsy Malone of the SDMB. ---

Myself and **Kalhoun** have been responding to a lot of the same topics lately with _usually_ the same type of responses. _sighs_ She probably didn’t even notice. 😃 In fact, I think I hear her coming now. ---

See??, when I opened the thread post 21 was the last one. I should have previewed, but that would have ruined the mood. ---

[QUOTE=gabriela] I’m not in a gang - too new. Also, not enough human disassemblers on the Dope… I give a shout out to **QtM** a lot though; maybe he’ll let me be in his gang. There are too many dopers of whom I am in awe (e.g. **Eve** ) whose gang I couldn’t be described as being in. (Somebody edit that sentence) **LOUNE** and I followed eachother around a thread until one of us had to shout “Mo-o-o-om!!!”, but it was a one-night kind of thing. I’m always glad to see **Twickster** show up in a thread. But, then, who isn’t? [/QUOTE] You can sign up with us. Let’s see…we have a kazoo player, a knee-cymbal player, an armpit player…there are others. But I don’t believe anyone’s taken the part of “nostril twanger.” The job’s yours if you want it (pending approval by the rest of the band, of course). By all means, if you see another instrument we are lacking, we’re open for nominations. ---

My gang is **The Drunkards** and they know who they are. One of them has already posted in this thread claiming to be in a different gang. ---

I don’t think anyone’s ready to claim me yet. For some reason, I often find myself following **Lissa** around, but I’m definitely not stalking her. ---

My gang is probably called: those to whom “Hey! Numbskull! What’d you do _that_ for?” is said. Moved from IMHO to MPSIMS. ---

I guess I’m in the Cool Kids (Or Rue’s Children–shouldn’t we be Rue’s Niblings, since he was Unca Rue for a while?), one of the last members to gain admission to the Brat Pack before it stopped being talked about, at least on the fringes of the Reality Sluts, and what **Anaamika** said. 🙂 ---

I walk alone. With nobody else. MrBusGuy, you and I could form a gang, and then go around terrorizing other gangs! We can be like the southside gang or somethin. 😃 ---

Come to think of it, the OP, **Zeldar** and I ( **NoClueBoy** ) are in a proto gang of sorts. 1. We both tend to hijack even our own threads, usually with some music reference. 2. We both like to read and chat early Sunday mornings. 3. My list is only two items. Sorry.
