Where can I find a DU mentor?
   

 
I have'nt gotten my DU legs yet, and cant see the trees for the forest. I was hoping an "old hand" could sponsor me, so to speak.

1. Hmmm why don't we all throw in a bunch of the "DUisms"
   
Here's a start:

Freeper = Someone from Free Republic, a GOP Hate Site
Toaster = DU In-joke about the proper gift to give to a woman who comes out as a lebian
Olive Garden = DU In-joke referring to a few past posts in which going to the olive garden was compared to being an awful person


Any others?

Have you tried your local welfare office? Crack house? Mental hospital?

Perhaps the mailman primitive should ask Doug's stupid ex-wife.

She'd make a great mentor on Skins's island.

Yes, poor, stupid Beth would be a good mentor for an up and coming DUmbass.

As you probably recall, she last served as her mother's financial advisor.

Mom had a nice home out there somewhere near Sodomy City in the Bay Area.

Mom also had some nice rental property for income.

Under poor, stupid Beth's guidance, she lost her rental property.

Then she lost her home, and poor, stupid Beth lost her apartment in Sodomy City.

Both of them, along with poor, stupid Beth's two big, smelly dogs, had to move into a little old camping trailer out in the desert,
Mom's last remaining bit of property.

Now their county has condemned the property as unfit for human habitation due to inaccessibility.

Lack of access has caused Mom's bank to call in her loan, and they are at the brink of foreclosure.

Poor, stupid Beth has a gang of illegal Mexicans working on the jeep trail out to the county road
in a desperate attempt to stave off eviction.

Poor, stupid Beth might be a good mentor, but she certainly can't use Mom as a reference.

At least for franksolich's mole.

There are plenty of mental cases at the DUmp so finding someone to drive you over the edge shouldn't be a problem.

It would seem, right here. Simply scan for "Where can I find." I will be taking polls on the best. Remember you came after me first.
