I'm so grateful I'm beginning to babble!

Beginning??

Oh, hush, you...

Does this mean the curse has been lifted????? Next thing you know, I'll be included in a popularity poll! AND people will actually vote for me!! AND I'll start a thread that will last more than ten minutes! AND...

Whoa, get a grip there, girl

What? Oh sorry... got a little crazy I guess... Where was I...

Oh, yeah. Thank you Political Junkie!

17. I Was Hoping That Nobody Would Feel THAT Bad...
... and that nobody would have actually experienced ALL of the options. (But I guess the "Other" option can include "All The Above" as well.)

19. Hi Beaverhausen! Welcome To DU
See? You didn't kill this thread, and someone responded.

(Now if you respond to this response, I might not respond back to your reply-reply. Get it? Basically, you're playing with fire and you assume responsibility for your own thread-killing actions. :-))

29. Marion Lorne... I Love Her To Pieces
She reminds me of my 97 year old grandmother. Sweet, loving, but kinda bumbling and forgetful.

I'm just being a whiner presently. :D

The response thing is more complex than anything along the lines of manners though and I understand anyway. (That's all I'm saying about that one.)

37. Nobody responds....
...to my threads, to responses I've made to other's threads...

'No body loves me,
everybody hates me,
Guess I'll go eat some worms'--quoted from a past co-worker.

40. That happens to me a lot, too.
I think it's just because there's thousands of posts every day, and a good chunk don't get responded to, so it just seems that way.

50. LOL! That quote is from a song!!!
One day when I was having one HELL of a bad day, my former roommate came into my room, while I was sobbing, and sang that to me. It made me laugh!


Nobody loves me,
Everybody hates me,
I think I'll go and eat worms.
Long thin skinny ones,
Short fat juicy ones,
See them squiggle and squirm.
Bite their heads off,
Suck the juice out,
Throw the skins away.
Nobody knows
How well I thrive
On worms three times a day.
Long thin skinny ones
Slip down easily,
Short fat juicy ones stick.
Nobody loves me,
Everybody hates me,
I think I'm going to be SICK!!

because you're sure no one noticed you were gone.
