The Compliment Thread
I'm setting this up to have a place where you can formally register a compliment about another member of the cellar.
if we could avoid thread drift and sarcasm here, it will work a lot better
you don't have to think of something nice to say about everyone and list it all at once, i was thinking something more like: when you are impressed by someone, you come over here, make the persons name the topic of the post, and put down what it is that impressed you. Also, it isn't neccessary to reply to a post unless you have something to ad, or a seperate instance of how you were impressed by that person. (I don't think rebuttals or arguments would be useful) we will assume that the posts herein are the opinion of the post-er, and don't represent fact, and therefore should not be argued against.
I hereby compliment lumberjim for starting this very welcome and long overdue thread.
For introducing me to the phrase "stupidicide campaign".

I second that, and to
WOLF for having such a great way with words. :) I wanna be you when I grow up..lol! :D
Grow up? Who wants to grow up?
I'd like to compliment UnderToad for encouraging me to check out the wild, wacky, and mega-timewasting world of blogs.
[COLOR=indigo]For having patience, intelligence, and wisdom. At least as it pertains to the Cellar... :D[/COLOR]

Poop.:(
I would just like to thank all who took part in the second part of the "Strawberry Thread".
The banter about what colour to post replies in was the funniest thing I've read for weeks.
It was a Hoot.
Shame about the wee Hampster though.

yeah. damn. I was remiss in not immediatley taking the time to give toad a :thumb: for a few things:
1. hosting the site in the first place
2. maintaning the IOTD thread
3. walking the line between mod and member
4. being generally wise and positive
good job, Tony. It means a lot to a lot of people.

Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone. I only pretend to be grown up ...
but personally, when I am not wielding my knife as a weapon, I have little sympathy for someone who chooses to fling themselves into it.
Someone who takes offense when it is not intended is a fool. Someone who takes offense when it is intended is seven times a fool.
two seperate sagacious quotes in one thread. impressive.
you should write greeting cards, al.
What a crew.
Tony for his perspective.
Griff for his heart.
Syc for his pimp coat, poetry and pie.
Rho for her sweetness.
Wolf for her amazing tales.
Slang for...being slang.
Hubris for his timing.
TW for his earnestness.
Esplode for his craftsmanship.
Dagney for her zest.
Radar for his idealism.
Bruce for his curiosity and warmth.
Tobiasly for his toothy debate.
99 for her experience.
zippy for his common sense.
Onyx for her romance.
Rich for being so well read and so articulate.
Perth for his creativity.
Juju for his wide openness.
Pastrami for his wise humor.
Maggie for her logic.
Jag for his youthful wanderlust.
Billy for his enthusiasm.
Whit for his wit.
Net for....well being such a guy.
Quzah for his ...je ne sais quois..
SteveD for his range.
Russotto for his quick clarity.
Kat for her artistry.
And some of the new folks I'm just starting to enjoy. Let's see what comes of all of this, eh?
When I visit here, I generally hear intellegent people thinking outloud. That's pretty cool.
Warch for her massive capacity for kindness!
For my timing?!? I thought it was for my winning smile and boyish good looks!
Damn.
Hey, better than me...I got more recognized for material items.
I'd like to compliment myself on working so hard the past 2 weeks...104 hours--and not for naught, especially since I'm an hourly employee.
Also, I'd like to give myself props for being so damned sexy.

You'll need props to hold up that claim.:)

I don't think your poetry is a material item. It's a lot more than the paper and ink (or electrons and bytes), if your know what I mean.

I know...that's why I said "mostly". I'm just giving Warch some shit anyway.

Props to Sycamore for being the first one to respond to one of my posts here. Thanks for the warm welcome.
And special compliments for being so modest. If your SO weren't here, I'd flirt with you. :angel:
There is no.. I repeat.. NO.. fucking way that such an attractive person is a Cellarite.
Oh wait, maybe there is...
We should stick to the thread topic for once!
Gwen Stefani is cute!
There is no.. I repeat.. NO.. fucking way that such an attractive person is a Cellarite.
Not unless
Gwen Stefani has decided to start hanging out here.
Which [dead kitten] would be fine [/dead kitten] :)
But, getting back on topic, first I'd like to thank UT for hosting such an awesome place and for being a kind and benevolent mod who allows Cellarites to be themselves.
Many of the good Cellarites have already been acknowledged so I'll give a shout out to insoluble and FileNotFound. Smart folk. I disagree with them sometimes and let them know on occasion but they aren't thin-skinned and aren't afraid to step up to the plate and disagree
in a civilized manner. I respect that and appreciate it.
And I think lj has added quite a bit to the forum since he has joined.
And to dave. I thought you were far to mean-spirited on occasion but there was a method to your madness - one that I admired.

Maybe you're right - I'm just a Gwennabe. But, her hair is fake, so what's reality anyway?

On the NoDoubt.com fan forum, Gwen Stefani started posting, everyone thought she was a troll and gave her a hard time. At one point she said "I'm exhausted from being doubted." Finally, she put up a notice on the NoDoubt.com home page that it was really her in the forum. But, by then, she was tired of the whole thing and stopped posting. She was kind of naiive about forums. It was pretty funny to see it unfold.
Gwennie,
welcome aboard.
and my compliments on being a non-asshat so far. i like it.
good to know that not all newbies are trolls and crapflooders.......being a semi newbie, myself, it lends to my credibility.... hope you stick around for a while.
Ljim
oh, and how bout a REAL pic of you
here ?
I compliment Dagnabit, for his incredible cleverness and honesty. :)
remember, juju....no sarcasm
Everyone except the people I don't like, but I can't think of anyone who's stayed in that catagory for more than a few minutes.
So everyone, for contributing, which is what makes the Cellar possible in the first place. And secondly for being civil which makes it fun.
Of course UT, for making it physically(electrically?) possible.
You are all invited to use the following lyrics to the tune of your choice: ( will work with any tune you choose)
I'll be dipped in donkey dung and rolled in rainbow jimmies repeat as necessary recently sung at the Appalachian Tavern to the tune of the Star Spangled Banner
Please forgive the play on words, but I couldn't resist.
I'm [COLOR=teal]impressed[/COLOR] with Lumberjim's cunnilingual abilities, that is, he's such a cunning linguist, as opposed to a cunt licker.:p
There is nothing wrong with being a cunt licker. All my girlfriends seemed/seem to enjoy the hell out of it.

No offense to Rho implied, of course. :)
Ab-so-fucking-lutely nothing wrong with being a cunt licker in my book. Especially when I'm on the receiving end of a good snatch attack.:p
Since this is the compliment thread I will say that, bugz, although you often overuse smileys, you used exactly the right one at the end of that post.
[SIZE=1]Oh that was a mixed compliment sorry.[/SIZE]

And this, my friends, is just one example of why the Cellar is the best MB on the web.

So, by now you see that I am not any of those bad things, but I
am a terrible Attention Slut with just enough substance posts to earn my keep. :blush:
you ask a question, you get an answer. you also get a link to even more info. must have worked in tech support. thanks, dude.
People that I love and respect:
Tony - its obvious why. He's just the shiz nitz.
Onyx - because she's just about the nicest person and is so cute!!!
Elpsode - for his strength and humor in trying stressful times.
Lumberjim - for adding hilarity in very uncomfortable situations
Bruce - cause he's just that damn funny. And all the doodadage of course.
Undertoad for creating the Cellar. This is the best place I've found in a LONG time.
Onyx for her no-nonsense, straightforward plain talk.
LadySycamore for her humor and thought-provoking insights
lumberjim for being open to ideas and giving them a fair hearing.
And for everyone else who has made me feel welcome here. Thanks. I love this place!
Sidhe
has the rare ability to say more with a smiley and a single word or sentence than most of us can say in a page.
I have to say, Hot Pastrami's posts have been consistently brilliant for a long time. I may be the only one who feels this way, but I think his posts definitely stand out.
Here's why I appreciate Juju (even if I don't frequently agree with him). He's one of the few people, even in this wonderful crowd, who will post an opinion and allow himself to
gasp! change his mind or admit that he's learned something new.
This is a rare trait, and a welcome relief from
long, whiny threads where the originator asks for advice and then proceeds to rebuff all attempts at supplying it.
Thanks Juju, for reaffirming my hope that we really can learn and grow. :)
I want to say that I admire OnyxCougar. She has a way of just being herself, where most people aren't themselves much of the time. She doesn't pretend to be anything other than what she is. And she has a good sense about people.

Oh, I'm pretty confident you're the only one who felt that way.
Heheh... I never saw Juju's compliment until this very moment. I was working some crazy-long days for awhile, and not getting online much after work, so I was only managing an occasional hit of Cellar... it must have slipped by me along with a number of other interesting postings I'm still sifting through. Of course now our dear Juju isnt around for me to thank him for his considerably-overgenerous-but-kind words. Damn.
Thanks, Juju... wherever you are! You're one of the swellest guys I know.
I'm glad to see more of Jag. He writes some very interesting posts.
undertoad and lumberjim, they r real nice guys.
i posed hoarfrosting questions, and they posted sparkling replies.
the very first time i ever surfed an american BBS, impressed by your kindliness and hospitality.
xoxoxo Bruce is a gentleman of class, elegance, and generosity.*
:) Thank you, Bruce.
(*all that and he's straight too, I understand)
I'm gonna post this for LJ, even tho I am pissed I just found a thread where he was ripping on me 2 months ago and didn't even tell me.
Hats off to LumberJim, he has brought this place to life. I think he is a big dumbass but he's way better than listening to Sycamore argue with JuJu argue with all their other fat gay friends.
LJ, buddy...this beer's for you.
wow. I'm printing and framing that one. thanks

Actually, the only gay person I know these days is you.
You know that may have been the stupidest thing I've posted here, or any bulletin board for that matter. Sorry about that Syc, was uncalled for. Too many beers after a hard day and just being in a dumbass state of mind....not even sure if I was trying to make any kind of point. Good god you'd think at my age I'd stop doing stupid shit like that.
oh, but it was fucking funny. syc can take a joke. I know juju can. they've both taken enough of mine. i suspected that you were drunk when you posted that, and so in response to this, and with the tag line being
The Cellar: Friends don't let friends drink and post
I am coming up there tonght to install a breathalizer unit on your keyboard.
be there around 7.

Cool beans, I love gadgets..don't forget to bring beer.

You're welcome. (curtsy)
damn. what a smart guy. judging by the one picture we've seen of him, i'd make him to be in his mid twenties, but he seems to know a good bit about pretty much everything that comes up on here. he's unabrasvie, whitty, and insightful. and a damn fine craftsman.
here's to the monkey! a 21 banana salute!!
:beer:
Cellarites I think are particularly worthy of note are...Onyx Cougar.......that purple writing always cheers me up. Undertoad because he's da boss.....LJ because he'salways fun..... yelof because he's always got an intelligent angle on everything.....marichiko for being darned witty
writes a damn good compliment. :)
that reminds me, yah, Happy monkey cause whats not to like about a happy monkey? and catwoman cause she's way cool
The trouble with this thread is I keep remembering people to compliment.
jaguar rocks
DanaC because she realizes quality when she sees it ;) and also writes some extremely intelligent posts; Jaguar because he is too cool for words, but writes them, anyhow; LJ because he's funny and contributes so much to the cellar; Lady Sycamore because of her passion and wit; xoxoxoBruce because is generally level headed, amusing and kind.
I knew all this place needed was a group hug.
marichiko for being deeply cool, DanaC for enlightening discussions of controlled substances, Wolf for being able to see a bit further than people`s political allignments, Syc for still being here, UT for paying for everything, LJ for being the self appointed village idiot (in a good way), Slang was cool but doesn`t seem to be around much anymore. xoxoxoBruce for the very cool dodads and enlightening anecdotes. At the end of the day I have a wider POV than I would if I had never come here and for that, I`m glad (avoids comments about looking into the abyss).
Like syc I`ve been here long enough to see people come and people go, I`ve seen plenty of stupid spats but many interesting and adult debates as well, in this day and age a free-for-all of ideas like this place is a very positive force in a world dominated by one-way media that has no interest in challanging our preconceptions.
On the MIA and missed list are Nic Name and Xumagad, who IMHO made the best argued posts here, JuJu was cool too but seems to live on his own board now.
We've known each other 3 years, jag...and that's all you could say about me, you bastard? :)
Props to...
--Jag for hosting the Bosque
--UT for hosting the Cellar
--LadySyc for putting up with my shit
--me for dealing with all of you :)
First of all I would like to thank my mother and my father, this award was won by a team who should be up here on the podium with me....Shame on you, Mr. Bush! Shame on you!
;)
Nah I don't think I'll do the compliments thing, but thanks to all of you who complimented me (Danac)
:D

Me and my stupid memory. I wanted to compliment Yelof, as well, but couldn't remember your user name. So you may add me as well as DanaC to your list of fans. ;)
Marichiko for being right-on and literate
Jaguar for being kind and intelligent
Beestie for being strong but not abusive
Lady Sidhe for making me angry and inspiring a decent argument
DanaC for having a good point and putting it over gently and without contempt
Radar for his directness and lack of apology
LJ for his occasional wisdom
Glatt for making me see things I've missed
blue for being kinda cool
xoxoxoxBruce for being lovely
and I know I've forgotten user names but tough, if you're that good I'll remember your point if not your name
I know I'm only a Cellar baby but so glad I joined. You have all helped me to see things differently, so thank you. And I'd like to *sniff* thank my mother and my *sniff* coke dealer and *blubber* oh it's all too much....
I feel the need to add some compliments after this latest nasty round with HB. So here goes: UT for making this place available; Sycamore for not bailing out on us and his intelligent posts; LJ, I already complimented you last time but you remain a highly valued member of the board in my book; Smooth Moniker also for intelligence and grace in the face of opposition; Lookout 123 for wit; Catwoman for style and flair; Wolf for no nonsense speaking her mind. I applaud you all.;)
Suck up. :D
But it it wasn't for your post I wouldn't have noticed catwoman kinda complimenting me. Hmm, I wonder if others have been saying nice things about me??
Catwoman, weren't you the one bragging on about how every male you know wants to bang you twice? And no pic to back that up? Or did I miss that too? Maybe I'll just mentally picture you as Halle Berry in the meantime.
And I'd like to *sniff* thank my mother and my *sniff* coke dealer and *blubber* oh it's all too much....
:)

:p You're just pissed cuz I didn't add you to my list. I considered it, but figured that would be your response. Actually, if there wasn't someone like you around that I could get enraged with, this place would be much more boring. So there!
Yeah, plus we already had our obligatory pissing match...it's like we're old buddies. :)
I love you man! (sniff, sniff) (Staggers off into the Colorado night yet once again);)
Lumberjim, for stepping back in for a moment and stirring up a hornet's nest.
woo hoo!
i stir shit, therefore I am.
Garnet, for being such an easy target.
Garnet, for being such an easy target.
This is a "be nice" thread, Lookout. So you have to be nice, even to me. :o
My compliments to Marichiko, CyberWolf, Brianna, DanaC (and OK, you too Lookout) for being pretty darn COOL people!
that was being nice garnet. you make for very interesting discussions due to your methods.
I used to be in love with Nothing But Net (for his excellent haiku's) but now am wondering if I am in love with Ike is my Cat for same reason.
My compliments to Lookout for one hell of a fine new tag line, Brianna for generosity of spirit, Garnet for courage under fire, Wolf for indefagible grouchiness, Catwoman for intelligence and wit, xoxoxo Bruce for always surprising me (that boy fits in no tidy pigeon-hole), TS for his scholarly posts, LJ for not being here much these days, and, most of all, UT for putting up with us all and working day and night to keep this place going for 14 years!
I believe you mean "indefatigable."
I want to give props to all of you for not sucking that badly. :)
I believe you mean "indefatigable."
yeah, like the man said. :D
Oh, and Sycamore is way cool, too. I'm glad were starting to see more of HIM around here again.
*bows*
We still have some AOL discs to send you...I just need to find them.
The move was an incredible pain in the ass, but our new apartment is great. St. Louis was lovely, and the 10-year HS reunion went well. We're off to Maine and Boston later in the week, but for all intents and purposes, I am back. After all, someone's gotta keep Lookout on his toes. :)
After all, someone's gotta keep Lookout on his toes. :)
I did my best in your absence, but I now gladly concede the field to the greater master (and don't forget LJ!)! :D
Thanks to all you guys for being uniquely entertaining, providing intelligent albeit sometimes over-emotional discussion and keeping me from withering away from boredom at work! :thumb:
I'd like to compliment the cellar, for staying about the same while everything else on the web changes.

Pssssst! Don't let Hubris Boy or LJ hear you say that! Just thought I'd clue you in since you're a newbie! ;)
Holy shit...is that you, Cam?
Yeah, I'm back. Thought I'd change my username since I took such a long break from this place. Well not so much change it as just sticking a 2 behind it to let everyone who knew me from before know this is my second appearance. It's nice to be back, a lot of changes, but it's still the cellar. UT, props to the new version of vbBulletin, it rocks (though I liked the older visual style better, the new features definitely outweigh that). It's also nice to see you're still around syc. The place has a lot of new faces, but from what I've had a chance to read in the past couple days I can tell the majority of them are a perfect fit for the place. Well I guess I should go meander around the place some more. I haven't been in a good friendly argument/debate in a while.
I think everyone should get an old pat on the back! It's not often you can find a place on the net that has good conversation, cool pics and you can learn stuff as well without all the crappy arguing. I don't normally do a lot of posting anywhere. Cellar has changed my opinion on forums. Cheers, you lot!!
Oh yeah, well that shows what you know. :biglaugha
I'd fuck a whole lotta ya.
(I've no standards)
If you've no standards, then it's not a compliment!
well--guess you're right. Ok--suddenly, I've standards....everyone must be a Philadelphian! except lookout--he can remain a 'Zonian.
what about smoothmoniker - he's in CA
and troubleshooter and lady sidhe are in LA i think
and then there is Jaguar
and ...
i have to draw the line somewhere.
And get some sleep. I can't be in love with you ALL. (sadly.)
That's OK, something tawdry and physical will suffice. ;)
I'd like to thank all ya'll for being such a hilarious and insightful group of folk. I can't remember how I happened upon this lil 'ol place but I'm damn glad I did.
i have to draw the line somewhere.

Nonsense. Get yourself a PDA, work out a schedule, and get busy. People not in PA will just have to make travel arrangements.
A PDA to schedule her PDAs! :)

I already told OnyxCougar--Bruce is mine!
Am I going to have to fight the lot of ya?

I "saw" him first! ;)
Ok--I just broke out my shiv on OnyxCougar on another thread...so I'll have to finish that fight first and then I can fight you for him, OK?
(hope will not be too tired...) :worried:

Hmmm... That means I'd either have to fight you or Onyx and I know either one of you could whoop the hell outta me. Tell you what, I'll compromise and take Smoothmoniker. He may be a tad young for me, but he DID offer me a ride in his hummer limo! That would work. ;)
In the match between me and Onyx I will be the victor.
Go easy on smoothmoniker---the young ones can be rather emotional.
All the energy expended in senseless fighting could better be used for great sex. Whatta waste. :(
I "saw" him first! ;)
No you didn't.
No you didn't.
You, too, Wolf? Boy, is Bruce the most popular guy in the cellar or what? :D
Bruce makes me wish I was gay.
I cannot have the forbidden love with Bruce. But I can study him, admire him and try to be more like him.
bruce is to be admired by men, loved by women.
Study hard, grasshopper.
I too, must bow to Her That Is Wolf (tm), but I know Bruce before Mari did. :p
Bruce *is* a great guy, but just when did this turn into the "let's kill each other to see who gets to fuck him" thread?
Maybe this topic deserves a new thread? Or maybe NOT. We could just go with an Envy thread? Or a deadly sin thread...etc. etc.....
I too, must bow to Her That Is Wolf (tm), but I know Bruce before Mari did. :p
And you're the only one on the board to sleep in my bed. ;)
How did I miss all this stuff??
Syc's latest user title, "Extreme right-winger...in hockey" caught me off guard and made me laugh heartily.
*bows*
It came to mind a couple of days ago...while listening to Sean Hannity, I believe.
You're listening to Hannity ... there's hope for you yet, boy.
I'm sure you've heard the saying, "Keep your friends close, your enemies closer."
if we could avoid thread drift and sarcasm here, it will work a lot better
Anyway........
Ut oh, I cant think of a compliment for anyone here. Anyone want to add a compliment to a member?
THM
I would like to compliment ThreadHighjackMan for saving us all from drifting into the wide Sargasso Sea. :)
I would like to thank you for complimenting me.......in the compliment thread.
Anyway.......
I would like to compliment THM on being a partial piece of shit, instead of a full-blown one.
Hey, it's a start.
Let it out man, let it all out.
I'd like to compliment Slang for his creative use of irony, and his ability to have a conversation with himself. Wouldn't you agree, LJ?
Gee, thanks guys. :blush:
Reminder to self: consolidate personalities ASAP
I would like to compliment Griff on his willingness to consolidate personalities and just be happy being his Griff self.
It's the first step that's the hardest man. Be strong.
I would like to compliment everybody on being their wildly original, very witty, slightly grumpy, highly opinionated self, no matter what their persona of the moment may be. ;)
First of all I would like to thank my mother and my father, this award was won by a team who should be up here on the podium with me....Shame on you, Mr. Bush! Shame on you!
;)
Nah I don't think I'll do the compliments thing, but thanks to all of you who complimented me (Danac)
:D
LOL you forgot to thank "God" or "Your Lord and Savior". (just a joke just in case you don't believe).
:p
And yes, shame on Mr. Bush indeed.
And thanks to all that gave me props. Peace.
And you're the only one on the board to sleep in my bed. ;)
How did I miss all this stuff??
Heh, but we all know that Bruce loves the "brown sugar", so that settles it. He's all mine..muuuuhahaha! And we can take it outside, since I will fight for what's mine. ;)
[SIZE=1]Did I say that out loud? LOL[/SIZE] :D
I would like to compliment Griff on his willingness to consolidate personalities and just be happy being his Griff self.
Thanks Slangster. That sounds like something Buddha would say, my compliments.
Thanks Slangster. That sounds like something Buddha would say, my compliments.
Nah, Only God would say that! :D
You're darn tootin"! :wstupid:
MaggieL, for being so good at the debating game. Even though I disagree with some of her views, I have to admit she does an amazing job of consistently defending her points.
I admire Brianna for her way with words.
LJ for his creativity. The new user titles are a hoot.

I know these change, and globally, so I wanted to capture this one live.
grant, thank you for the uplifting thought, thank you very much. Your words (by way of Richard Bach) are an inspiration and a comfort to me, especially today. Please accept my thanks and my compliments.
dar512 deserves my (our) compliments his reasoned well tempered posts. Ever the voice of reason, the cellar has been poorer for his absence and is richer for his recent return. It's good to see you around again, dar, really good.
Can we also thank some of our recent crop of newbies? We seem to have hoovered up a few very cool people of late. I'm not gonna name names, because I'd end up forgetting someone and then feel terrible.
I'd like to thank BigV for some wonderfully interesting posts, particularly pointing out this cool, if dusty, thread. :thumb: I've got some reading to do here.

Now that I think about it, you're right! So I'll second that.
I'll third that, not naming names [COLOR="Gray"](cough cough UB, theotherguy, etc)[/COLOR]
Ya see what I'm saying - Shawnee is almost too nice. Heck, I'm just a schlump with a zuke!
I truly want to thank Shawnee for being a lovely, interesting, and funny enough lady to cause my lazy butt to get in the Cellar to make a few comments.
I also would like to compliment just about everyone here for making this such a great place.
Probably been said before but what the hell:
Thanks to all the genuine, intelligent people here who make this site what it is, and worth visiting.
Thanks UB. That was very kind.
Thanks to all of you here who make me laugh and think and generally help me put up with myself by putting up with me. ;)
I know this has been said before, but I think it bears repeating:
[indent]Thanks to Undertoad for making all this possible (and sharing cool stuff).[/indent]
[indent]Thanks to wolf and Bruce for working diligently to keep it happening (and sharing their wisdom and wit).[/indent]
:lol: Hey, we run with our talents. :p
I think Ducksy has the best arse on the Cellar.
Of course, that's just my personal opinion. :)

Wow! That sounds like a challenge. I think we need an Ass-off. Ladies only, please. Do we have any volunteers for the judge panel?
I'll be on the panel. My arse is definitely not suitable for this challenge. lol

I'll second, third and fourth that.

Hey...I'll be judge of that.
You will definitely be a contender in the boob off, though.
Yes well, boobs are an entirely different story.
Oh yeah, you chicks blow me outta the water in a boob off.
I'll take that as a compliment. ;)

Thanks, V. I feel the same way about your stuff.
I originally decided to jump in and join the cellar to give you guys thanks, but I felt it was sort of attention whorish to make a whole thread dedicated to it so this thread is perfect!
As I stated in my other post (which I am sure not all of you read) I have been lurking here for quite some time, in the past I've popped in and out of the cellar reading all of your interesting and often amusing posts usually when I was bored or upset. In November I ended a four year relationship with a very yucky person. This wouldn't have been a problem except that I was very not used to being alone and needed the comfort of people around me, discussing things that didn't have anything to do with my previous relationship or any possible future ones. I was on the cellar every day floating amongst your posts and reading the stories of your lives. Although you don't know me, I want to thank you all for really helping me through a couple of rough times by just getting my mind off of things for a bit. I have a habit of reading through forums without looking at the names of those who post but the ones that I always remember when I come back to the cellar are these:
Undertoad (obvious reasons), lumberjim, Spexxvet, Onyx, wolf, Happy Monkey, sycamore and ladysycamore, marichiko, jaguar, Briana, DucksNuts, Bruce, Sawnee123, Elpsode, and DanaC...so thanks to you guys particularly for brightening my day...and my apologies for any misspellings.
An extra special thanks to wolf for being such a strong woman, I look up to you a lot.
Man...I hope none of you guys are creeped out by this...
Just LJ, he has lurkerphobia.
Yeah, but we forgive him because of his astronomical cock.
Mayhaps I should edit him out then, so he won't feel bad?
it's just an ongoing thing, razz.
It's like they found out that i was afraid of mice or something, and they like to tease me about it.
I'm not afraid of mice, btw.
Unless they're mice who are lurking on The Cellar.
reminds me of a joke:
Man is riding the bus. There is an old lady with an umbrella sitting across the aisle. Every now and then, the bus driver looks in his big rearview mirror, puts his hand around his throat, and makes gurgly noises. Each time, the little old lady gets out of her seat, hits the driver over the head with the umbrella, and goes to sit back down. This goes on for a few stops. The lady finally disembarks. The man can't stand his curiosity, so he moves up front and says to the driver "what in the world was going on with you and that old lady?" The driver replies "Oh, her daughter got strangled to death last week and I like to tease her about it."
Unless they're mice who are lurking on The Cellar.
Shawnee - that was a good one. It should be in the Humor thread.
I think we should give the mods a big round of applause for not gettin in everyone's face.
I occasionally frequent a couple of other forums, mainly political or gaming in nature. One in particular seems to have very trigger happy mods and a rather disturbing Yellow Card/Red Card system. When I say trigger happy, I mean mods posting in a thread to warn people that it's drifted off topic, or locking it because people were getting personal.
So, big round of applause for the mods for being mainly unnoticed.
Yeah, but we forgive him because of his astronomical cock.
For some reason, I now have the image of an erect penis doing the job of the gnomon on a sundial...
hey! it's 4 O'cock!
Just don't get twixt LJ and the door.

Your welcome :P
Yes, but he said it was 4 o'clock, at 1 o'clock, so evidently he's not up to the job.
Maybe he exagerates everything by four. Maybe his cock is only a quarter of astronomical.
Yes, but he said it was 4 o'clock, at 1 o'clock, so evidently he's not up to the job.
the number was immaterial. the joke was in the o'cock.
Quit making excuses and admit it, you've got a hook... or is it a slice?
im just glad you didnt take the low road there, and agree that there was a joke to my o'cock.
Is that anything like your "o face"?
what the hell are you talking about?
Queen of the Ryche has been pretty funny lately
Morethan is very striking indeed. ;)
Cicero's lips look delicious!
Awright you two. Get a room.
And take pictures.
And post them on the cellar.
:D
I would like to compliment dar512 for his most excellent suggestion.
Just for that, make it dar513. You've earned it. ;)
I just wanted to say, that Sundae has impressed the fuck out of me lately. So's Bri, actually. Given the year they've each had, and yet they both seem to have found some kind of equilibrium. That's impressive. I don't think either of them realise how strong they are.
I just saw dar's new profile pic. dar, you are such a cutie! :)
Gravdigr is a very good sport. He's active and engaged here in the cellar, and I can't recall him being combative with anyone. His good attitude make him a pleasure to be around.
Cheers to Gravdigr!
Yeah, Gravdigr is a good guy.
That's a grave accusation.
We're gonna room together in Federal Prison. :thumb:
I thought you might get a room at the mausoleum :heart-on:
sky burial for me... the world is my masoleum
...and I can't recall him being combative with anyone. His good attitude make him a pleasure to be around.
:lol2: He don't know me vewy well, do he?:D
And, here I thought I was an also ran...now I'm having trouble getting my hat on...
Cheers to me? Cheers to you guys. I'm
so glad I fell bass-ackwards into the Cellar. Even the days when one of us pisses me off (and that's not hard to do), I'm more glad than mad. I was down to just an hour or so a day online, and then, the Cellar came along. Hell, I've spent hours and hours and hours without leaving the site. I can't remember how I even came across you folks, you popped up in a Google search prolly.
When I die, I ain't leaving the Cellar. Ima haunt you guys.
And you'll be blaming us 'cause you didn't finish your honey-do list. :haha:
I don't got no honey. The only one who'll gripe, is me, and I will.
But, don't worry, I'll blame ya for sumthin.:D
Yeah, Gravdigr is a good guy.
Yeah, I wouldn't shit on his porch.
Sexobon has made my lol so many times recently I'm considering billing him for a bottle of screen cleaner.
