A Very Pleasant Outing For the DU Someday Perhaps? (shout-out thread)

2. I can imagine how frustrating this must be for you.


I admire your self-control. I probably would have done something really inappropriate by now...

Careful Frank, she may read you some of her poetry.

[franksolich]

You forget, sir.

I'm deaf.

I wouldn't know it if she did.

Boobiez?

[diesel driver]

You forget, sir.

I'm deaf.

I wouldn't know it if she did.

You may be deaf, sir, but you are not blind.

She may make you READ some of her poetry!

Pray for darkness!   

[Ogre]

You forget, sir.

I'm deaf.

I wouldn't know it if she did.

I apologize, I did indeed forget.

[franksolich]

I apologize, I did indeed forget.

Nothing to apologize for.

I wanted however to say when you posted that, I had an "image" of CaliforniaPiggy sitting across the table from me, gumming her jaws.  I wonder if she has false teeth.

Or possibly act out some of her poetry for you!

It's hard to tell from any pictures I've seen of her.  Of course one has to not focus on the Adams apple to see much of anything else.

[franksolich]

You know, last year I submitted eleven of her poems to Watch Tower magazine.

Watch Tower's the largest-circulating magazine in the world, and I thought CaliforniaPiggy deserved the publicity.

The magazine never even sent a rejection slip.  I wonder what's up with that.

I suspect it was because I "demanded" that if they published her poetry, they'd also have to have her photograph gracing the front page of that particular issue.

It's shocking that the world should be denied the privilege of such a talented artist.  She's still the apple in our eyes though.

[franksolich]

By the way, I don't mean to give anybody the impression franksolich at times doesn't feel for CaliforniaPiggy.

CaliforniaPiggy was very close to the late Chief S itting Bull, the Greatest Primitive Ever; they were quite a pair, warm and affectionate with each other.

When the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive Redstone died a few months ago, despite that everybody knew of his deep and sincere friendship with CaliforniaPiggy, and that CaliforniaPiggy cared a great deal about him, it was a whole entire week before they contacted her, telling her the news.

franksolich actually cried for CaliforniaPiggy over that; that's no way to treat an older woman.

She should've been informed right away--she didn't have to tell the primitives or decent and civilized people the news, but she personally should've been illuminated.  And right away.

Damn, the primitives are calloused insensitive beings.

[GOBUCKS]

Yeah, DUmmies, join.  We will show you our boobiz.

Uh, a lot of us here are dummies.

[thundley4]

Uh, a lot of us here are dummies.

We're all dummies, now.  ~ Paraphrasing a magazine cover .

[franksolich]

Oh my.

One wonders who the primitives are talking about.

35. I would take the high road unless he does something to you personally in RL. And whatever you do I wouldn't do it on the Internet.

I know who you are talking about but don't know his troll name on this site.

Of course it's not, ahem, franksolich, because franksolich has a mole, not a troll, on Skins's island.

There's a difference.

38. He changes his name frequently

At least that's what he claims.

Okay, who here's been changing his name?

39. Probably because he keeps getting deleted ...

I know they brag about their moles but I'm not so sure I believe them. Pretty pathetic - an entire site that exists just to mock another website.

40. They would be the first ones to tell you there are other reasons for their site

But you can't help but notice their hyperfocus on DU.

It's the market, baby.

There's a popular demand for this stuff, and we supply.

If the primitives didn't churn out good material, the market would collapse.

I don't troll with my mole. I'm there to gather quotes.

Trolls and moles are two very different things.
Trolls are there to disrupt.
Moles want to blend in and gather information.

I don't need to change my name if I'm not rocking the boat. and a number of prominent primitives have had conversations with me. I have a mole and you have no idea because I write just like you.

That's what's so laughable about their MIR team, the malicious intruder removal team.

Trolls are easy to detect; trolls deliberately give themselves away.

But their MIR team's looking around for trolls.

Not moles, but trolls.

Now, which one is more insidious?--trolls or moles?

franksolich's mole blends in rather well; in fact, at times, franksolich's mole sounds exactly like the Die alte Sau primitive.

[Carl]

My mole has been walking among you for a couple of years now,you will never figure it out.

I'm guessing your mole's the one who imitates the generalissimo dude well?

And every DUmmy knows, but no DUmmy dares mention, that proud2BDUmb was 2010 DUmmy of the Year.

She has not been exactly gracious in surrendering her crown.

You might, or might not, recall that last year I came in out of a raging blizzard to write her award, for which I got scant gratitude from her.

Well one look at Anne reveals she has the same inner ugliness that has despoiled the outer shell in the same way it did here predecessor as well as her now successor.

27. That "something else" leads to and promotes harm to DUers.

All the more reason they need to be exposed.

Anne must be using her Kerry '04 dictionary, the one that defines lying as "repeating one's own words back to them".  Simply copying-and-pasting DUmmy comments where others can see and critique them must be a real embarrassment to Democratic Underground.

Liberals come by it naturally.  When someone uses opposing quotes from Obama, they are called racists and liars.
