Apologies to anyone here who’s trying to “build an online persona” on this board… all that labor is lost on me (and many others, it sounds like).
So, yeah, Scummypuppy or whatever your handle is, just go (if you haven’t already). If it’s any consolation, two or three people here might notice.
Add me to those who have trouble remembering more than two dozen Dopers or so. (I even had Starving Artist and Waldo Pepper conflated despite that their names and opinions are quite different! :smack: I think they may have both been AGW contrarians in a long-ago thread.)
I did vaguely recall that scumpup had scummy political ideas — but only because his username made that mnemonic easy!
Or say that paid-up Members cannot be BANNED without being democratically voted off the island. Sign me up!
You know, there’s nothing I like better after a hard day’s work declawing cats than to go out to a nice restaurant, eat a hearty meal, and then not tip. Unless the waitress is really hot, in which case I tip–but only if she gives me really good service, if you know what I mean. (“Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.”)
Not to further push the issue but the thing is, when the context is reminding a poster of a long past comment that casts their current stance in a uncredible/hypocritical light, the board’s memory of which poster made which comment can border on savant levels of accuracy.
Jeez, that makes me feel old - it doesn’t seem that long since I watched it in a movie theater, but Steve Buscemi is so young that he still looks like a member of Homo sapiens.
Maybe a different solution is the OP leaves and pays me at least $80 or $90 for the privilege.
I see that as the only fair option at this point - maybe I should pm him.
Actually I think I should increase that to about $650 - still doable.
