Since I am one of my weird and lackadaisical moods today and don't feel like working I started a thread this morning about guilt by association which has spawned my weird mood cuz I'm still pissed off (and not one god damned cuss word in the whole post, I'm so proud.......oops, Shi...I mean shoot!) about the subject matter!
In that thread someone replied by the name of apple123456 or something like that. I made my typical cynical remarks and didn't think much of it. Then I noticed this appel-numberd person was a NEWBIE!
Since I am trying to do anything to keep from sliding over to my Mac and doing some real computer work I decided to try and find out who in the heck this gosh darn new person was.
Simon in his infinite wisdom has incorporated that handy member list with the ability to click on anything a poster has posted to see if the person you are posting to is a real squirrel or has actually posted something of significance or at least a whimsical ditty at a light hearted fluff post. I click on apples name, read the post where she had posted (about 10 or so posts) to see if she had introduced herself and I just missed it or just slipped in like a thief in the night.
She hadn't started a thread of her own but I noticed she had made short little comments on several threads. Except for Ozziepost (one of the nicest guys on the gosh darn bord) in one thread, not one single person made a reply to her from what I can see (I may be wrong, or just blind). I don't know about her but I would feel like fly poop if that happened to me when I first became a poster here (maybe I came on too strong when I started, I forget).
Since I do not post as much as I use to, and since I rarely post on one of those "hi I'm new here" threads (cuz I'm not much of a greeter kind of person) I thought I would take the time to say hi to a new poster who seems to have slipped through the cracks of this forum and still remains a bit oblivious to some of us old time crotchety posters.
From her profile and her posts it seems her board name is apple829 and her real name is Sherryl. It seems that she's about 30 years old (too young for me), married with a two year old kid and she likes cookies. She lives in Chattanooga Tenn. (Iv been there, it has a choo choo in the middle of town) and is glad she is out of the gosh darn religion.
Since I haven't welcomed a new poster since Flower and Kevin I will check my "shy quite guy persona" in the closet and say,
"Welcome to the Gosh Darn Bord Sherryl"!!!!!!!
Here is a secret of survival on this bord, Don't cuss like I do, Don't get into little flame wars like I do, Don't make long posts like I do, Don't tell people you like Farkel like I do, and type the letters Y.A.W.N. in any thread that is started by our resident delusional, psychopathic, schizophrenic, doomsday, self appointed anointed Super JW poster we all lovingly know as "You Know" aka Robert, Bobby, Bobby Boy, Bob, Boob, Booby, Brain dead ***hole, Dip stick, F*** Wit.
Say hi to everyone Sherryl, Have fun and don't feed the animals.
Dave
PS: I just thought of something, maybe she wanted to slip in quietly and not be noticed right away? Well,........... bummer,...too late!
