Well, this probably doesn’t count…but I don’t want to meet Jim Carrey, or that Jesus guy who advertises on the net. Nor do i want to meet Curry from RubberBurner

Hmmm… For the life of me, I can’t understand how I forgot about that.

Thank you, **Oldscratch** , for being so kind in reminding me about that.

I come in here to be enlightened and mentally stimulated and walk away with ever growing list of issues to bring up with my counselor.

An aside to **Vanilla** - Hey, after re-reading this thread some time later, it occured to me that I might be seen knocking you in my one-liner post. Not at all, I’ve been getting pissed at myself lately because my posts have been sub-standard, in my opinion, and I was knocking on myself for not making the joke clearer. Sheshhh.

Go away, Tim. You don’t belong in this thread. This is the place for UNPOPULAR people like me and…some others. You’re fabulousness is blinding the rest of us. Please leave. 😛

I’m pretty sure nobody has ever mentioned me in any of those threads, but I can’t be positive since I never actually read any of them. I don’t think anyone would want to meet me anyway. I’m boring.

Well, I was never mentioned in that thread, but Coldfire did mention someone by the name of water2j, whom I’ve never seen around these parts.

Well I’ll be goshdarned. The way to give a thread life, is to ask people to ignore it and request that it be closed!

Now that I know its effectiveness, the possibilities using reverse psychology are, if not limitless, vast indeed.

I hate you all. Really I do.

Well, I’ve offered huge buckets of money, and still, nobody wants to meet me.

Fine…I’m changing my name to Wussy Fluff…or Pink Shoes.

**Vanilla** , you must have the fastest connection I’ve ever seen!

Two minutes and a response? WOW.

But on to more pressing issues.

Ya. I’m naked. I like reading the dope nude. I feel like I’m more one with the group here.

C’mon. Get naked with me. Show that library some fun, you fuddy dudy!

Sigh…add me to the list of the forgotten millions.

Since I know this can have _nothing_ to do with me I figure the ways to get recognized are:

- Tell someone you want to have sex with them or otherwise shamelessly flirt (being married this is a no-can-do for me).

- Get into a knock-down, drag-out flame war in The Pit and be clever while doing it. Bonus points for making-up afterwards.

- Be one of the lucky few with a sig by Wally.

- Somehow manage to be personally welcomed to the SDMB by Cecil (although I think the 15 or so who were welcomed bribed Cecil).

- Have something devastating happen in your life (for reasons that should be obvious this option is generally avoided if at all possible).

- Talking about your cats helps but doesn’t quite get you over the edge. For some reason I can’t figure talking about dogs seems to net you fewer points than talking about cats.

- Telling someone you hope they get raped by marsupials.

Feel free to add to the list. The more things here I haven’t done the easier to convince myself the problem is really with all you folks (actually, I’m pretty much convinced of that already but every little bit helps).

Good grief Poysyn! No one has visited you? One of the prettiest SDMB women in one of the prettiest countries in the world who actually _wants_ to meet SDMB people and no one has come?

What a bunch of putzes! If my wife didn’t have this thing about me flying to foreign countries to meet strange, beautiful women I’d have been there long ago.
