Who are your DU-crushes?

[tjwmason]

We don't seem to have had one of these for a good three days.

I have loads and loads of them, both transitory and semi-permanent, so if your names not on the list it probably has been at several points in time.

My main man-crushes are:

sundog, khashka, cannikin, MadAsHellNewYorker, Taverner, and Clintmax

My main woman-crushes (slightly different given that I'm gay - even though they do push this fact to its limits) are:

JimmyJazz, progmom, MissHoneychurch (away at the moment :( ), and everybody's favourite CaliforniaPeggy.

Which DUers brighten up your day simply by their existence?

[bufffbison]

1. i could use more democratic friends... not just on here, but...

whom i can actually hang out with.... seems like all i can get are the politically unaffiliated and the repukes. ERR!

[LaurenG]

2. WCGreen because he's from Ohio

and some others like pdittie and his wife and rosebud57 because these are fabulous people that you guys probably never heard of and of course many others too special to name. (fyi, I think it's great to have "crushes" on as many people of different sexas as you can). Too bad there are only two to choose from (sexes that is).

[WCGreen]

67. Blush

[progmom]

3. you mean, besides you?

:)

[tjwmason]

4. I'm shocked to be on anybody's list

:blush:

[progmom]

5. you are intelligent, interesting, and kind

three of the most wonderful characteristics a person could have.

plus....you're really cute. :loveya:

[tjwmason]

10. Did somebody hack into my account and make lots of odd posts

Otherwise there no explanation for you thinking that :shrug:

You're also very beautiful, alongside intelligent, interesting and kind - progdad and progspawn are most lucky. :loveya:

[progmom]

15. aw - stop

:blush:

[redqueen]

7. Dag, that's what I was going to post!

Oh well... I'll say it anyways:

Besides you, you mean?

See, I said it differently, so it's different.

[sundog]

6. they already know. each & every one.

[tjwmason]

14. Well - that's lucky for some then

:cry:

[sundog]

30. ya nut

:loveya:

:hug:

[RandomKoolzip]

8. I really liked the sadfuck smilie.

But since I can't remember his URL, it's destined to be an unrequited thang.

[sundog]

11. the :donut: smilie keeps rejecting my advances... he's so hot

[tjwmason]

13. It's for your own good

He told me that he loves you very much - but that if you have too many donuts it will be bad for you.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Hey there, tjmason...

I am honored to be on your list! You made my day...truly you did..

Men on my list: weztelbill, WCGreen, MrScorpio, maveric, khashka, Aristus, Redstone, WilliamPitt, Crazy Guggenheim, Floogeldy, evlbstrd, Droopy, ZombyWoof, texas1927, swag, SouthoftheBorderPaul, and jobycom and autorank...


Women on my list: progmom, yvr girl, JJ, MisU, NSMA, KitchenWitch, Sugar Smack, MissHoneychurch, Heidi, NVWhino...Radio_Lady, OldLeftieLawyer, merh, nini...


Well, and you, tjwmason, of course!






(Sorry I didn't call you my dear...can't use that anymore.. :cry:)

[tjwmason]

12. With or without a 'my dear'

It makes one's heart flutter, and one's face :blush: to get onto your list.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. You are a lovely guy...

I hope you're making someone very happy...

Thank you...

:blush:

[Redstone]

17. Why not?

The "my dear" part, that is...why can't you use it anymore?

I'll bet it's one of those things I wouldn't have missed if I weren't so oblivious.

Redstone

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. I do believe, my dear Redstone, that you were the first person

that I used it on....

Today, ZombyWoof started a thread where he said he would outdo me by calling everyone "dearest..."

At first I found the whole idea uproarius, and then later, not so much...

I've decided to not use it for awhile and try to defuse the situation...

I know when people tease me, they do it because they love me...but today I had a harder time than normal with it...

You are far from oblivious! Did you see...you're in my list, big surprise there!

I need a hug...

[KitchenWitch]

21. Several witchy hugs comin' up

:hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug:

Ignore my second PM.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. I LOVE your witchy hugs!

Too late, I already answered your second PM..no worries..!

Thank you for the hugs! They are wonderful, and I am restored!

Here's some for you: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

[BikeWriter]

26. Hey, Sweety. Don't let anyone tease you...

You DA BOMB!!! :nuke: :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. My dear BikeWriter...

You are too good...and I forgot to put you on my list...my bad!

Thank you...:pals:

[BikeWriter]

36. Thank you, Sweety.

:pals:

[Redstone]

56. OK, here's a hug. And a spare one as well, in appreciation

of the signal honor of having been the initial recipient of the "my dear honorific."

PS: Anybody wants to give you a hard time, let me know, because they gotta come though me first; nobody picks on my pals. I may be old and beat up, but I fight dirty (which can make up for a whole bunch of youth and strength).

Redstone

[CaliforniaPeggy]

57. My dear Redstone!

I love you...you know that, right? Well, I do..my apologies to Mrs.R!

And you are far from old and beat up...I appreciate having you on my side, and that's the truth!

:blush: :loveya:

[Redstone]

71. I'll mow 'em down; you stack 'em up.

And you can call me "my dear" anytime it please you to do so. Anybody who doesn't like it can stick it his or her ear.

PS: As far as being old goes...well, you may have a couple of years on me (though less than ten, by the way), but I bet I've been awake more hours than you have. So there.

Redstone

[lumberingbear]

73. Peggy, I love the "my dearest"s .

I'm hoping that one day I'll get a "my dearest".

[WCGreen]

68. BLush Blush

[Crazy Guggenheim]

77. You only mentioned me because you feel sorry for me .......

:cry:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

79. Now why in God's good name would I feel sorry for you? Really!

You are one of my friends here...one of my dear friends...and I do not feel sorry for you one little bit...

Knowing you has brought some fun into my life...

I show my appreciation for that by mentioning you in my post, so there!



:pals:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

80. Oh. That's ok.

[Wetzelbill]

95. Woo hoo! I was even named first!

:)

[Tom Kitten]

100. Peggy!!?!!

what happened to me? :cry:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

101. Oh my dear Tom Kitten!

I am a very bad, forgetful girl! BAD, BAD, BAD! Will you EVER forgive me? Here, spank me!


Of COURSE you're on my list...I knew I'd forget someone...and it's you...

Brain spasms due to age....

:loveya: :hug: :pals:

[CubsFan1982]

19. I have no crushes.

Though I think Rev_Acts, LeftPeopleFinishFirst, CarolinaPeridot, and all the DU chat babes are cute as hell. :D

Oh, and I can't forget the heterosexual man-crush I have on Catholic Sensation. I wish I were more like him. :P

[KitchenWitch]

58. What about ME????

:(

just kidding!

[CubsFan1982]

61. I said ALL the DU chat babes.

:D

[hippiepunk]

63. Can I be a DU chat babe?

Please? :rofl:

[CubsFan1982]

65. No.

:P

[hippiepunk]

70. Why not?

I'm a vital part of the chats. And a total hottie. :P :rofl:

[CubsFan1982]

72. You have too many parts.

Like your bony mangina. :P

[hippiepunk]

muehahahaha

:rofl: :spray:

[Catholic Sensation]

69. You like the fact I'm hung like Planet Pluto

(hard to see with the naked eye)

[RevolutionaryActs]

81. Oooooooh!

I'm on the list! :D



You have heterosexual man-crush on Catholic Sensation, but not Kleeb? He's going to be so broken up about this.

20. I almost hate to post this...

since I don't want to scare her, especially since she lives in my normal state of residence...

madeline_con

She's intelligent, funny, and has a cool pic in her sig line.

/goes back into cave

[Clintmax]

23. TJ!

[Cannikin]

To be named by Cannikin :swoon:

[Taverner]

25. Molly Ringwald, Claire Danes, Melissa Rivers...oh wait

You said DU crushes...Never mind

[Dude_CalmDown]

27. Don't know - where's the DU photo album? - n/t

*

[SOteric]

40. It's in the Demopedia. n/t

[Dude_CalmDown]

54. Thanks - found it. Now I'm way too shy to say.

Can't believe I never heard of Demopedia. What's wrong with me?

[JimmyJazz]

29. standing in a queue of a school canteen

guys on the corner they were laughin' at me
but i don't mind if they see it all
you know i gotta come clean
i gotta come clean
i got a crush on you

my mind don't need it but my body do
a little bit of loving and attention for you
although we're only strangers
they don't need to know
i gotta come clean, i gotta come clean
ooh, i got a crush on you

:loveya:

[Sugar Smack]

31. HEY! I thought you weren't going to post in these threads

any more.

BTW, :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Oh, lala!

[JimmyJazz]

34. How could I not acknowledge the OP?

I just meant I'm not comfortable naming names, myself. Besides, the list is so long, it would take me all day to complete it :loveya:

[Sugar Smack]

35. Same here, ya little fire hazard.

I know just what you meant. :hug:

[ComerPerro]

32. Lets see, "view all", "ctrl+F" "Find: ComerPerro" - not found. bummer

oh well.

[Sanity Claws]

33. I'd like to have one but don't know anyone well enough

to know whether they're single. I certainly don't want to develop any crushes on married guys.
If we're not talking crushes but who we just like to see around, I've got to say OldLeftieLawyer. I love his name and love that drinking cat. I hope he was able to keep that cat in his signature line.

[JimmyJazz]

42. I hate to break this to you, but I think OLL is a woman.

:shrug:

[Sanity Claws]

43. Thanks

See I told you that I don't anyone here well enough to have a crush on him!
As for OldLeftie, I hope she's not insulted. I said I enjoyed seeing the name and that drinking cat. Those things are true no matter what gender the DU member is!

[enigmatic]

96. OLL is a sweetheart

And she wouldn't be offended:)

[Redstone]

78. OLL can get some help with the drinking-cat sig here:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x3856882

Her choice of three people who will try to optimize the image to conform to the new guidelines.

[cleofus1]

104. my du crush...

is my wife...she's not a member...but since she allows me to spend inordinate amounts of time posting to this sight, i consider her an honorary member...

[Trigger Hippie]

106. My crushes are all the cute boys

who post their pics. They can figure out who they are for themselves. :evilgrin:

:)

[tjwmason]

107. They truly are utterly gorgeous and adorable.

:D

[Trigger Hippie]

Yes, and there are so many of them.

We are truly blessed. ;)

[gmoney]

Pookie is fine.

110. We interrupt this thread...

[Shell Beau]

be... Well, I am not going to name him, but I haven't seen him post too much lately. But, he is a cutie! But my only real crush is my hubby, of course!

[kick-ass-bob]

112. here I am!

:hi:

:P

[Shell Beau]

113. Of course, I was worried about you!!

:hi:

[Hugin]

116. Being a veritable Crush-Ho...

I have many... Most unrequited I might add.

But, since BettyEllen mentioned me in the last crush
thread... I must return the favor.

BettyEllen.

;)

[Shell Beau]

117. Crush-ho? Ha ha ha!

[redqueen]

120. You know what?

I started typing a list, and there are simply too many to name.

When you ask,"Which DUers brighten up your day simply by their existence?"... the list is far too extensive, and I'm afraid I'd leave someone out by mistake, so I'll trust that all you wonderful people know who you are.

Now, if you'd asked, "Which DUers make you tingly?"... that list would be much much shorter... ;)
