Why are my DU original posts the KISS OF DEATH?
I'm officially giving up starting original posts anymore because I hardly ever get any replies.

Do I smell?

Do I have toilet paper stuck to my shoe?

Did someone tape "Kick Me" on my back?

Here's my last ever DU original post:

2. Style
The formatting and fonts showed a quiet desparation that forced people to skip the thread? just kidding! :D


...and yes, there is a piece of toilet paper stuck to your shoe.

4. I'm sorry, I've been away for awhile.
The spirit of threadkilling, which normally haunts me almost exclusively, has apparently been wandering in my absence. I'll take it back, now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

10. Well, sure, but
let's face it - the prospect of smoking pork rinds and mangling other languages draws in a crowd like very little else. It's like watching Sabado Gigante drunk.

11. I have found that posting pictures of
hunky male gymnasts for the gay men works quite nicely as well! :P

13. Hey, those male gymnasts are some strong mofos
They'd give Josh Strength a run for Jesus's money, I'm sure.

16. THE POWER OF CHRIST TWEAKS JOSH STRENGTH'S NIPPLES!
Who knew? Although yer right - it is strangely exciting. Hypnotic, almost. Excuse me, I need to go chug down some raw eggs and self-flaggelate.

6. Sometimes I start threads that I think are provocative enough to get
many replies and they get none. Other times, I start silly threads to vent that I think will get no responses and they start flaming after a few minutes. Don't take it personally, especially on a Saturday morning. :hi:

9. Don't give up!
I thought your post was very clever and cute. There is a lot to read and respond to here and some of us only have a few minutes. I feel like I only see about 10% of the material on DU.

12. I like it when I'm ignored
My wisdom scares people. Most are not worthy of my insightfullness. Or, something fullness. I'm full of something scary.
