Sometimes spending too much time online can hurt your personal relationships... so I've been staying off the internet and DU for awhile.

Now that I'm back for for the mid-terms: What did I miss?

Please catch me up on the DU drama.

1. Welcome back!
Glad to hear that you're making sure to take care of your personal life.

How long have you been gone?
(*Polite way of trying to find out how many TSings you missed*)

3. Yeah, I remember you.
You used to use a South Park figure in your sig, right? And I'm pretty sure we've had more than one conversation about grammar (or semicolons?)

Glad to see you!

4. People complaining about their sex lives.
And, of course, the world being a big STD... :spray:

6. I've been a DU poster since 2003.
Even back then, people tended to hearken back to an earlier time when everything was ideal.

It was never ideal, but it's still the best forum on the internets for Liberals.
