Oh, dammit, jeez, I'm flattered and all, I really am, but these "hearts" kind of drive me nuts |
|
wondering where they came from.
OK, you leave me no other option, whoever you are, except to make a donation so I can baffle other DUers about the source of their heartitudinousness. (Yeah, I know that's not a word. But it should be.)
I hope you're happy with yourself. I know DU will be.

(That's OK, I'd do the same to you in a heartbeat, so we're square.)

2. Not Knowing Is the Fun Part |
|
It forces me to be a little nicer to people - it coulda been someone who gave me a heart!

Oh, it's heart season again, already?! Egads! "Heartitudinousness" - that's a good word, I might have to steal it! :toast:

8. Steal it with my blessing; you'll probably be able to spell it better than I could, |

Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 07:46 PM by Redstone
even on my second attempt.
And here, I couldn't even spell "probably" on the first try.)

5. That's what I love about it. |
|
I bet a couple of the folks I gave hearts to wouldn't have a clue. I'd be the last person that would cross their mind as a possible donor.

11. Yes, that's the fun part, indeed. I'll be on that side of the equation tomorrow morning, |
|
since I'm too tired to do so tonight.
Stand by, y'all.

Can anyone help me understand how much money is collected in these drives? Where does the money go? This is a great site but how much does it cost to maintain? Why do I have to ask this? Why not disclose this information? I have contributed in the past, but I am increasingly wary of undisclosed charities. No offense, just asking.

13. I'd guess that the admins would be happy to share that information if you asked. |
|
But I don't have the answers.
Nor do I ask those questions. Not that you should not; it's just that I consider my contributions to DU to be a fair deal for the benefits I receive.

17. BI, sweetheart, thank you, but there are SO many others who deserve it much more; |
|
(and I cannot list all those besides yourself who would be in that category)...no false modesty from me, here.
But thank you again.

It wasn't my wife, who obviously doesn't love me anymore. :cry:
Anyway, thanks to whichever one of you it was!
On edit: I just got another one. Maybe my wife DOES still love me!! :loveya:

I like not knowing where the hearts come from. My husband was teasing me about getting one, until he heard it was for a good cause!

as other people do, so just in my own opinion, yeah. She does.

with about 6 years of experience altogether, I might be able to do some damage.
