Agreed, Reyn, also re the judging aspect. It's perfectly understandable that the people who've been here for years focus on each other and seem a bit of a closed circle at times; that's not a bad thing. I just think some of the posters here don't realize that's the way it feels to new members.
cyphercat,
Very well said. Can I be in your clique? Oh, you don't seem to be in one either. Nevermind. :wink:
Well rain, if you join my clique we can be a clique of 2
I used to use clinique, but its too expensive.

I'm game if you are.
The only thing is, you realize that if we're going to be a clique, you absolutely going to have to like me then. Otherwise, it's not really very cliquey, is it?
Let me know if you've changed your mind.
Dys and Reyn:

My ex-SIL swears by bag balm for stretch marks.
Hey, I have been here for awhile, but at one time or another, we have all been newbies, whether it is on an internet forum, a club, a neighborhood, or any other place where people gather.
Some people seem to move in slowly, "check out the lay of the land" before they barrel on in, and are accepted into whatever group that they are looking to join. There are those who come crashing in, don't understand the "culture" of the group in which they want acceptance, and then wonder why they have not received immediate acceptance.
It is very interesting, and this goes for the real as well as the virtual world, that some people spend their lives bitching and griping about how people won't accept them, how they feel "out of the loop", while others mosey their way in and are quickly part of the crowd.
yes, the shiksa lady speaks truth, for many years she regarded me as some weird illiterate cowboy from a, as yet uncivilized, state (new Mexico) until she got to know the real me, a weird uncivilized cowboy from an uncivilized state.
dys- No, actually I always thought of you as weird, a cowboy to be sure, but definitely, not illiterate...................well, maybe sometimes! :wink:
Hell yes, Mama, I'm glad you're back. Doesn't seem like you were gone very long. But what concerns me the most, the VERY most, is to know if you're glad that I'm still here.

Not sure who were responding to on the 2nd parts, Soz. If it was me, I have no problem with Kicky. If it was my comment about go tell it to your president, then that was a smart ass remark I made to dlowan. Probably not all that funny afterall.
Then it is little surprise that I failed even to realise it wa sdirected at me, since I do not HAVE a president, but a prime minister.
A bad one, as it happens, but still a prime minister.
the lady diane is still in the corner reflecting on her sins.

Dys, did you catch my little message
HERE? :wink:
yes rain, it's you and me but you're not getting the keys to my porsche.
diane shall be free from the corner only after she spends substantial time on her knees um, er, praying.
Sweetheart, you know I love to pray with you, but in a more horizontal position.
MA, dys has a unique sense of humor, one that I find very funny (most of the time). Never worry--I know how to talk back and, sometimes, take great pleasure in it.
What could she have done so drastic to still be in the corner? It's, well, it's inhuman!
