So now that the “Who do you want to meet?” thread has reached 4 pages (albeit including some hijacking) who has the highest post count that has not been included on anyone’s list?

(Not that I take any of this personally, folks. Sniff.)

Figures… I’m one of the first to come in here.

I’ve yet to be mentioned, except for the occasional, “Who are you!” and “How’d your post count get so high that I’ve never noticed you?”.

Doesn’t bother me. Really. No worries. I’m serious.

Hey folks. Looks like I’ve done it again. Kindly ignore this thread in favor of mrblue’s (I LOVE that guy!) And if a moderator stumbles by and wishes to close this, that would be nice.

Oh great!!

My one and only post here is about to be closed.

WHY AM I SO LATE ON THESE THINGS!

What the Hell was that!?! Can’t even get in a good one-liner. It was pretty funny in my head, though.

</div>

and as of this writing, I’ve only been mentioned once in that thread - as someone who’s already been met. And that was 7 years ago, before this board even existed.

So I figure people either think I’m an extraordinarily long-lived troll or a barely tolerable curmudgeon.

Ew, self-awareness is painful!

Since I have no interest in spending the time it would take to read all of those posts, please, tell me, did any of you post on there that you wanted to meet anyone? I’m curious if you are being wallflowers or if you’ve actually been blown off.

**sigh** Guilty. Tho’ it would have been nice to see that, perhaps, some Dopers thought I’d be worth meeting without having to ‘prime the pump’.

I wanna meet you, Olent! Anyone who once had a quote from a Geggy Tah song rocks in my book. 🙂

Seeing as how my thread is on page 3 and in danger of slipping off the radar, you might as well leave this one open. The life expectancy of my average MPSIMS threads would barely outdo a mayfly.

Besides, you can’t go killing a thread when someone says “I LOVE that guy!” about me. (“Not in homosexual way, that’s fer sure.” - Rudy)

I have to second Olent’s notion that it would be nice to have someone say they’d like to meet you based on your personality and wit alone without having to flood the board with the minutia of your seemingly meaningless existence or advertising yourself like a bottle of Gatorade.

Or maybe that’s not what he meant. 😉

This is post 1830-something for me. I’ve been mentioned thrice: by Scotticher, iksova and DRY. I’m rather surprised some people didn’t mention me . . . but I’ve convinced myself they had mental lapses.

Eh… I’m near 1600 posts, and I think I got maybe 4 mentions. Of course, these mentions were from the bestest, funnest, funniest people on the board. I think maybe if I didn’t post about my poo and UseNet so much I’d get more mentions.

Well… that, and if I posted my picture. Then people’d flock to KC to meet me.

That’s bullshit and you know it.

From a poster in the pit.
