Poll question: What's your favorite part of DU?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

1. Why didn't you mention me?1

[jobycom]

2. Um, er... Not sure, really...

California Peggy's just been more fun lately?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. My dear Crazy Guggenheim!

You are also a BIG part of the fun at night in the Lounge. Where on earth would we all be without your wonderful pic threads to entertain and amuse us? I ALWAYS look forward to those, and feel sad when they don't appear...You are a PILLAR of the Lounge!

:loveya:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

23. Awww thanks.

[LastKnight]

3. oscar, oh damn thats a throwback

good times.

[jobycom]

9. Yep, yep, yep.

A moment than can never be recaptured.

[hfojvt]

24. I could not find such a person

down the memory hole? Or was it Oscar___?

[jobycom]

29. Not a person, but a ... a...

No way to describe. Here, enjoy.

[hfojvt]

33. okay, thanks

I remember something more recent like that, or maybe somebody did a "remember when" link.

[jobycom]

40. It pops up on every "best of" link

I think it was chosen as the funniest thread ever, and someone suggested Oscar as the official DU mascot.

[Heidi]

4. I protest!

Why WEREN'T Enigmatic and Crazy Guggenheim among the polling options? :cry: (I voted for my girlfriend California Peggy!)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. My dear Heidi!

If you'd been a choice, I'd have voted for you! You are one very special lady, you know!

:loveya:

Don't you mean why WEREN'T they choices? Makes more sense, I think.

[Heidi]

13. Sharp eyes, Peggy!

I fixed my typo!

Biggo hug --- > :grouphug:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

15. Yeah thanks!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Ah, even at this hour...my proofreading skills amaze me...

I used to proofread for a little weekly newspaper...the folks doing the pasting up HATED me. LOLOL....

:grouphug: back atcha!

[jobycom]

7. Sorry, I call them as I see them.

I'm not sure which is which, though.

[Heidi]

17. Night crew primer.

CaliforniaPeggy is the nice, blue-eyed lady who brings a heaping helping of good cheer to the Lounge late at night.

Enigmatic is the one and only King of genreless Enigma internet Radio . . . click on his link and have a listen.

And there are many, many others who make the Lounge a great place to be at night/early morning: Droopy, WCGreen, KitchenWitch, LastKnight, MrScorpio, MissHoneyChurch . . . :grouphug:

[jobycom]

25. Actually

What I meant was, i didn't know how Enigmatic or Crazy Guggenheim were in my poll. I assumed you meant that one was, for instance, the "Hey I'm drunk" option, or something like that. I see from your California Peggy posts that you meant to ask why they weren't in the poll, so my post became irrelevant.

[Heidi]

27. I understand. My fingers fly at the peril of clarity. I edited my post. nt

[enigmatic]

10. California Peggy deserves it

She(other than you, of course) is the nicest person on DU..

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Thank you, enigmatic!

I guess I'll have to get my awful temper out and inflict it on some poor bastard to reverse this wonderful reputation I have! J/K...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Omigod, jobycom!

I AM BLUSHING! Here I am, getting ready to vote, scrolling down the list, when BAM here's MY NAME! I think my BP just spiked...lollol! I mean, I love you too...but omigod...

THANK YOU

:blush: :blush:

[jobycom]

8. Face it, CalP

You've become a legend!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. ME? Are you sure?

legend...this is hard for me to get my little brain around...WHY ME? I don't get it...I can't say, though, that I mind...

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN...

:loveya:

[jobycom]

20. Yep! And so far, you're running away in a landslide!

Oops, shouldn't say landslide to someone in California, should I?
:yoiks:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. ROFLMAO!

Where I live, there aren't any landslides! We are quite safe, thank you!

I'm amazed at this poll...I want you all to know that I did NOT vote in any of these categories...

:rofl:

[Radio_Lady]

49. You're just my favorite, too, Peggy.

Maybe I should refer to myself as OregonEllen and I might get some votes (write in??)

[Zomby Woof]

12. Yoiks, yaks, and coffee

And scrappin' in GD. :D :yoiks: :hangover: :donut:

[jobycom]

16. The yoiks option was your fault

You do realize, don't you? :yoiks:

[Zomby Woof]

19. Of course!

My moving tribute to them last night... who couldn't be inspired by that? :yoiks:

;-)

[jobycom]

21. Not me, apparently!

It was quite moving. In fact, one of the movingest smileys I've ever witnessed.

[madeline_con]

28. Crazy Guggenheim

;)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

Thanks.

[autorank]

30. Finding you flirting with Southlandshari!!!

:evilgrin: ...actually, my favorite forum was just "hidden" by "management" Election Results and Discussion, so that's my real answer.

Jimmey Buffet, the one good thing I'll say about him is, he's a loyal Democrat...

[jobycom]

31. Better say more good things than that about him

Or else I ain't done flirtin'! :-)

[autorank]

34. Let's see, he's kind to animals, especially cats and he's not

Lawrence Welk, yeah, that's it, not Lawrence Welk. No Polka!

I think I saw him once at CBGB's but I can't be sure, opened for the Sex Pistols on their "No More England" tour in the 70's.

How am I doing?

:dilemma:

[southlandshari]

36. Oh dear...

Not so good, darlin'.

But then again, I have caught my almost-cyberfling including another woman in his Lounge poll tonight, so I haven't given up on you yet...

Try harder!

:D

[autorank]

37. Well, has he told you about the...oh,I just can't say it

Shhh...he used to be a Libertarian...you know how wild they are? Or is that Libertines, anyway, you get my point.

[jobycom]

38. I ain't NEVER

been no Libertarian, thank you VERY much! :P

Libertine... What makes you say "used to?"

[jobycom]

39. You are unfamiliar with his work with manatees, I take it?

Co-founder of the "Save the manatee" club? He even works them into his novels.

http://www.savethemanatee.org/

[autorank]

47. He can write? Lard, Florida schools have done themselves proud.

:rofl:

[southlandshari]

48. Stop!!!

You are fighting a losing battle on this one, I'm afraid...

Jimmy Buffett went to school in Mississippi and Alabama (spent some time here at Auburn, in fact).

:P

[autorank]

52. I'm not even going near that one. Auburn is a very fine school.

:loveya:

Wow, the last time I saw that, "Stop", in a subject field of a message to me, it was from the gone, but not forgotten, Valerie5959 or whatever her name was (((xoxo))), you know the one.

[southlandshari]

54. Yes - I know the one.

Had to stop! her several times, IIRC!

:rofl:


Is this what someone else was referring to when they used the term "thread jack" in this thread? Uh oh....

:yoiks:

[autorank]

55. Well...

I think she was into that and a little symbolic bondage, but that's just one man's opinion.

Like I said, Auburn, GREAT SCHOOL!!!

[southlandshari]

35. I think you are missing an option in your poll

Hint, hint.

:P

[NMMNG]

32. Other (There must always be an "other" option)

Variety. I like the fact that there are so many possibilities on DU. I never have to be worried about getting bored, and if I ever get overwhelmed by any one board I can de-stress by heading to the Lounge or one of the tamer groups or boards. DU has something for every mood and need.

[jobycom]

44. Well said, and very true! nt.

[bicentennial_baby]

41. OSCAR!!!!

please come home... :(

[name not needed]

42. Thread-jacking

:D

[jobycom]

43. God Dammit!

Where were you last night? Definitely should have been included!

[southlandshari]

51. Thread jacking? What's that?

O8)

[Parrcrow]

45. Newyawker's milestone threads

especially when I'm on 'em.

[jobycom]

46. LOL You know

She is good. I posted my 10,000 back around May, and I thought she missed it. A couple months later I mentioned this casually in another thread, and someone searched (I didn't have a star then) and found that she hadn't missed it, I had missed her post! (The thread sunk surprisingly quickly, proving my irrelevance around here, but it was there!)

Sorry, Newyawker, wish I'd been reminded while I could still edit!

[no name no slogan]

50. The People

the greatest collection of humanity this side of the sun, IMHO.

:loveya:

[KitchenWitch]

53. Definitely CaliforniaPeggy!

You even have to ask????

[CaliforniaPeggy]

57. My dear KitchenWitch! And Swag as well....

I love you both, you know it. I have so many friends here, I can scarcely grasp it. And to find my name in a poll...well, it doesn't get much better than that, here on DU.

THANK YOU

:loveya: :grouphug:

[swag]

56. Peggy wins again.

She went away and was missed, but she's back and is loved.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

58. Oscar returns all the time.

[enigmatic]

59. The middle of the night in The Lounge

I love it this time of night..
