But, for me, that's a lot. I've only ever talked to two other people in all the years I've been online.

15. why would someone want to have sex with their phone?
I mean, those things are expensive....

OK, I chose the smart-ass answer. The real answer, I believe, is 4.

34. Those who know me and care, I meant.
I certainly didn't mean to imply that any significant fraction of the 80-howevermany K people on DU give a shit. But the few who do know what's up so that was a bit of an inside joke for them.

Thank you for unleashing the snark on me though, I really fucking appreciate it.

I like to get my real-life friends to sign up for DU.

Between that and the various other calls, I've talked to lots of DUers.

49. I said 1 to 2
but I just remembered it was more. 3 at least. Does a call via Yahoo Messenger count where I could only hear but not talk? (Since I don't have a mic yet). Then it is 4.

50. I've talked with
seven, by phone, over the past five years or so.

Some only once or a few times, for a short while. And one wasn't a DUer any more at the time I talked with her (on another DUer's phone call).

Myself, I've always had time for the Little People. Especially that Billy Barty...he was pretty cool. :P

I am spectacular, thank you, Mrs not-really-Grumpy-at-all. I am also feeling pretty good, too. :D

And how are you?
