Lurkers, today is your day

rkargerja

so random, since you are TTC are you lurking on the bump GP board? If so, what do you think of lyse?The only times I have been there is when there are links posted here.  The only Bump board I lurk is Multiples just because I want to chat with someone who had quintuplets or sextuplets...just to say I did.Yeah, my random make-sense-to-me letters suck and if I post more, I'll probably be associated with rkto.

Sorry, guys, think I broke the font.

From the deepest depth of my loving spot. Now I'm blushing. And from now on I shall want to call Moo "the Moo."

Is this thread dead yet?  If not, I'll bite. I usually post on my local (because I'm friends with a lot of the girls on there) and occasionally P&E, but mainly lurk.  P&E started getting really boring lately, so I started lurking more over here.  I like the pace of this board better than P&E (everything's already been said by the time I try to answer over there) and frankly, I don't care about WR stuff anymore.  I've been married about 6 months (The day after you, Stack!).Random facts: I hate text speak, I have my doctorate, I've read all the HP and Twilight books, I have two stepsons...that's all I got for now!

those re-enactments are based upon NEY/AFSB lore. they are mostly true, but the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

winged- I seemed (to an outsider, anyway) that all of the drama was caused because Moo decided to be all defensive about Bloomie and her post. If she would have kept quiet, and not stirred the pot the drama would have been kept to a minimum. Instead, a giant sh!t storm rained down.I assumed the when Fallin mentioned that she thought 2 people would GBCK it would be Bloomie and Moo.

skhynes, are you calling us slow?:does z snapping motion and bobs head back and forth:

I'm not surprised Moo came back. I do think it's lame if Bloomie did in fact GBCK over all of that.  It really doesn't seem like a huge deal.

If you're interested in Lyse news winged, apparently she started all sorts of drama on my local about a cookie exchange party.  Because apparently not inviting people who live 5 hours away to a cookie party is rude: http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/25523328.aspx

This used to happen to me all the time at my old job. I both liked and hated it. It definitely speeds up the time that I have to be there to feel the employees silently making fun of me.  Although, the obsession has its perks.  I kid you not, EVERY time I put my business card in for free burritos for 10 people, I win.  In the last 2 years, I have won 11 times.

I'm not surprised Moo came back.  I am surprised that she ignored everything.  Or maybe I'm not.

dagny, i hate local confessions. you should try to stir the pot by claiming you once went to court for arson or something. not that I did that at all ::cough cough:: but it would be funny to rock their world. So, try that and see if other people follow suit. Then report back.   Willie, I see what you are saying. i was wondering if you got some impression that moo was the type who would in fact GBCK from that.

All I have to bring is am embarassing story: Today when I went into Chipotle, the lady that presses the tortillas already had my order started by the time I walked over to her counter from the front door. I go there that often.Same here, and I like it so much that I'm afraid to order anything different because then they'll have to start asking for my order again and I'll lose my cool "regular customer" rep.Wow.  I have some weird deep-down desire to be a "regular" in all aspects of my life, apparently.  I'm sure that means something.

skhynes, are you calling us slow?^Points to all the .:tumbleweed:. etc.  posts

I kid you not, EVERY time I put my business card in for free burritos for 10 people, I win. In the last 2 years, I have won 11 times. I knew nothing of this, but now I do.  I stopped going for a while b/c the salsa girl once said "We've missed you. You haven't been in in a while."  It had been less than a week.  Helloooo, wake up call.

skhynes.......I understand what you mean P&E subjects last for like 10 minutes and then the thread is dead.  Every good subject I ever see is 2 hours old, thus - DEAD. 

AngieP900

I have a random desire to go to Buffalo.

wingedbride

you know, it really is shocking more people don't like lyse. shocking.

WillieSharp

maybe that is what I should have said Fallin. I am suprised that she is ignoring all the drama she caused.  

skhynes

Stack - No kidding.  I have a job where I actually have to step away from the computer so I can't freaking keep up.

I'm a lurker, have been lurking for a long time.  It's intimidating to watch so many people jump in and have it end badly.  Not so much the regulars treating them unfairly, but persons asking for honest advice and then getting offended.  Even knowing the trap, I'm afraid I'd go in expecting to be able to dish it/take it and then getting unreasonably offended even though I don't want to. On a random note, this font change for some reason makes me feel like I'm playing Oregon Trail on an Apple IIe(?) on my recess break back in elementary school.

::begins shaking internet cocktails for lurkers and guests:: Welcome, welcome all!

Here is my one word answer for why I can't stnad Lyse (and half of the nest):  Ladies.

I knew nothing of this, but now I do. I stopped going for a while b/c the salsa girl once said "We've missed you. You haven't been in in a while." It had been less than a week. Helloooo, wake up call. I'm trying to cut back, but I had to go there for my birthday last week.  My H came to work to take me to lunch, but I made him take me to a further location because I didn't want him to know the other people know me so well.

Angie--I'll take you to the free nacho bar. It will be magical.

mrsj0917

a_davis - I'm very much enjoying your monoface website. So thanks.That seriously kept me entertained for hours when I found it. http://tinyurl.com/mczh8w this has some more super awesome sites. (If this breaks the post, I apologize in advance...I don't usually post - just lurk :-)

noisy_penguin

I want to go to Buffalo, but just so Bethie can take me to Free Nachos Bar.

fivetenish

I also have a random desire to go to Buffalo, but I blame Anthony Bourdain for that.

OK...I've lurked here for a little over a year and kept coming back for the daily entertainment, recipe suggestions and wit.  I'm married and have only posted once or twice.
