...fruit flies like a banana...

I was here reading since like 2006 though.

Maybe 2005, I can't remember the exact year. I remember being on a random board and someone suggested DU. Best board I ever joined.

My therapist and I have had lengthy discussions about my intrusive ‘door buzzard’ thoughts. Along with my package-scribbling obsession

I have no trouble imagining it drawing rave responses!

Along with the monkeys taking over the cabanas and having to get the langurwallas involved.
Epic

as were other participants. But I think that one cemented the legend of pinboy! It was truly an epic discussion!

When I grow up, I wanna be like pinboy3niner!

for sharing 😂

That thread was hilarious and was a gift that kept on giving. Thank you for posting it for its Tenth Anniversary!

Can't imagine why....

I usually rekindle it but this year I lost track of the time.

Fine memories!

I scrolled down the replies, and dropped in to see the full comments at various points.

I bookmarked it because I missed the transition of comments from the door buzzer to a buzzard. 😄 Have to look at it again.

Fun puns, and snark! One of my favorite sets were these two.....
Hmmm .. I copied but not pasting.
I'll try again...but it was "how much" the feds, and the girl scouts would "care". 😄

Thanks, Polybius!

I laughed myself silly.

Long time members who I recalled but haven’t seen here in awhile, when I looked at their profiles, it shows that they haven’t posted in a long time. Their last post doesn’t give a clue as to why they left. One is still a star member but he hasn’t made a post since 2017.

Other familiar names have been FFRd or PPRd.

I check their last few posts, and if they are clean, I sadly fear the worst.

We aren’t young anymore and for a long time member with many thousands of posts to suddenly just stop posting makes me think that they met a sudden end. Their last post and the ones before that, that I was able to find via advanced searching, don’t give any hint that something was amiss.

And what happened to them.

While I like to read old threads once in awhile, it does make me a little sad as I spot familiar names who I haven’t seen in awhile. I look at their profile and a number of them had been tombstoned, ppr’d or ffr’d . Then there are those who just vanished. It’d bring some sense of closure if we could find out what happened.

Still think about some of them.

Mostly fondly
