I didn’t think I had the money but I do so here I am as a proper member of SDMB. Just thought I’d share that with you folks

Welcome! Sending a dollar to every charter member is the usual freshman initiation rite around here- if you send all the dollars to me I’ll make sure they get distributed 
Do you take a cheque?
Actually the most senior poster who responds gets $20.
Welcome!!
Cheques, bags of coins, gold bricks, sellable renal organs, you name it!
Hell. no! I’ve seen the way the exchange rate looks. No dollar for me, thanks.
Welcome, An Gadaí. 
Edited to add … but I’ll take a cheque, since you spell it so properly.
Hello An Gadaí. Be welcome. Enjoy your stay!
Well, if you’re a proper member, I’m not sure how well you’ll fit in – we’re unrulier than a basket of kittens hopped up on Capn Crunch around here.
Welcome!
What happened, did you find it stuck between the couch cushions?
Speak for yourself. I’m well-behaved at all times.
Anyone who tries to say otherwise is gonna get smacked.
Fáilte!
Hi, An Gadaí, welcome, please remember to take any metallic objects out of your pockets before heading to room 101 for your orientation. Do you like squid?
Pog ma thoan!
(That’s what Irish-speakers keep saying to me, I presume it’s some kind of cheery greeting and I hope I’ve spelled it right.)
Two words for you, “insurance” and “fraud”…
Póg mo thóin = Kiss my ass.
Thanks for that, I just might

Welcome to the Dope An Gadaí!
It’s always good to get some fresh meat, er… new blood, around here.
If you don’t mind my asking, what does your user name mean? A quick Googling turns up almost 50 hits, none of them seeming to be in English (by a quick scan.) I presume from your location and Malacandra’s reply that it’s Irish.
Any hoo. Welcome to the Dope and beware the Lonk.
An Gadaí = “the thief” (that right?)
Sorry. My Irish accent is terrible.
Correct! I’m not really a thief though except of young ladies’ hearts.
Oh good. I was afraid for a moment that you were a copper.
