Can we get a CONCERN FORUM.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

I think it would be the right & nice thing to do.

[dgibby]

1. I''m concerned about starting another forum.

[Arugula Latte]

2. The Freepers might not like it. They might talk about us in a bad way.

And then what if Fox picks up on it? *wrings hands*

[A-Schwarzenegger]

3. We could call it something else, like Concern Box.

[gabby garcia]

4. your concern is...

duly noted.

[KathieG]

16. lol

[TexasObserver]

5. Concern & Pessimism Forum!

We're gonna lose!

And if we win, we're gonna wish we hadn't.

And Obama will only serve one term.

And we'll get blamed for everything.



Waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

[Phredicles]

6. I'm concerned that a Concern Forum would be a ROVIAN TRAP!!!1!!!1!!

[truthisfreedom]

7. I understand that you're concerned about this.

Your concern is clear.

[cliffordu]

8. We could call it the WHAAAAAMBULANCE forum, for fail addicts,

the Concerned and the scaredy cats.......

[endthewar]

9. I'm concerned about your suggestion that we need a concern forum

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

:rofl:

[HCE SuiGeneris]

10. I'm afraid not.

[myrna minx]

11. The hand wringers union of Minnesota does not yet approve.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

24. It will be the first unionized forum.

[These Eyes]

12. I'm concerned that

your lack of concern for the concern of others will increase concern among those who feel the need to be concerned.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

47. There can never ever never be too much concern.

[Ikonoklast]

13. The Procrastinators Forum might approve this

Sometime next month or so.


But the Apathy Forum just doesn't care.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

14. I think that's ten endorsements from paid members, so we can start hammering out

the forum philosophy, rationale, purpose, goals,
rituals, rules, transportation, snacks and soda pop,
seating arrangements, scheduling, agenda, lighting,
recreation outings, study & quiz times, foreign
relations, dues & fees, fines, and salary of founder.

[Ikonoklast]

15. Dude. Way too much thought went into this.

I mean, like for real, goals?

You sound like my step-dad, dude.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

17. You have no idea how much thought went into it, Missy.

That makes 11.

[Ikonoklast]

19. Dude. Salary?

cough(sellout)cough

[A-Schwarzenegger]

21. Starving artists need to eat too.

[Ikonoklast]

22. My step-dad would say starving artists

Can always get a job at McDonald's, too, if they want their hobbies subsidized while real people go out to work at real jobs.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

23. It would be a real job to be the fairly compensated founder of DU Concern Forum.

Try not to belittle my creative aspirations
just because your step-dad may belittle yours.
Break the vicious cycle right now, my friends.
In return, I offer you the possibly in the
future to be lightly compensated position of
Concern Forum Evaluator.

[Ikonoklast]

25. Are you resorting to bribery in order to rally support to your cause?

Dude.
























I'm in.


But, I need it all up front...not that I don't trust you, but there's this guy, and, well, you know how it is, dude says he wants his coins like, now, or, you know, things might get a little, ah, violent.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

26. I'm offering the possibility of bribery in the distant future.

"I offer you the possibly in the
future to be lightly compensated position of
Concern Forum Evaluator."

If you were serious you would have asked
for the job definition instead of focusing on
filthy lucre. And suggesting violence
against the king of the corporation in the middle of
your interview is not the best form, my friends. Plus,
next time, please wear shoes.

[Ikonoklast]

37. Birkies and tie-dye was good enough for my last boss.

He never gave me a job description, either, it was like, "So, dude, when you show up at nine-ish, just ask for Hector and he'll show you what it is you're supposed to do, he's cool, he'll get you set up."

Hector was off sick that day, and no one told me what to do, so I just chilled for the first week or so.


Dude, it was awesome. There was a Starbucks right across the street with this little goth barista, and she got me triple venti soy lattes for free. I hung out there most of the day on the company dime, and no one even knew what I was doing, but I got paid.

Serious.

Which reminds me, dude, what about the bennies?

[A-Schwarzenegger]

38. It'll be exciting enough without uppers.

[myrna minx]

18. (((Shhhh...you're cracking me up again)))

Can I be vice president?

[A-Schwarzenegger]

20. A number of uncompensated slots remain.

[Chorophyll]

27. Great idea!

That way, the people who demand constant attention can have their own playhouse.

ETA: I'd love to be a moderator. My post-count is still pretty low, so I'd fit right in. :)

[A-Schwarzenegger]

29. Because we on the steering committee love your nick, you will be considered.

I wonder if any real person has been named Chlorophyll.
I'm going to name a character that some day.

[Chorophyll]

30. The sad thing is...

...when I signed up I left out that first "L." Hence, I am Choro-phyll. I have the typing skills of a freeper. (Oh noes.)

[A-Schwarzenegger]

32. I didnt even notice, I just read it in there!

[Chorophyll]

33. Oh shit. You can't read, I can't type.

We're screwn.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

46. Screwn is preferable to concerned.

[RiverStone]

28. I'll have my people call your people. Thank you for your input.

:hi:

[A-Schwarzenegger]

31. That sounds like "Your call is very important to us. Please remain on the line

listening to Muzacked Otis Redding."

Nevertheless, I'll have Ikonoklast call your people.

[Ikonoklast]

39. Dude. What?

Don't be volunteering me for stuff outside the scope of my employment.

You said I'd get an assistant to handle the phones and e-mail.

Dude. I had to actually talk to someone that called yesterday.

It messed with my vibe, you know?

[A-Schwarzenegger]

40. I thought you wouldnt notice that I volunteered you.

It's rude for you to read messages about you
that I wrote to somebody else. I'm beginning to
rethink the trust that I have put in you for all
these years. Unfortunately, the steering committee
has put you on probationary status until further
notice.

[Ikonoklast]

44. Major buzzkill.

Dude.

Chill.


I just would like to be, you know, consulted, and stuff. You just, like, dump stuff on people.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

45. We're full up on Consultants. How about Pundit?

[Quixote1818]

34. I am concerned that a concerned forum would cause more concern

in those who are concerned causing all of us to be more concerned. Sorry, that is just concerning to me. Very concerning!

[A-Schwarzenegger]

41. There's no concern for reason.

[calico1]

35. I'm worried about what might happen if we do.

I am a very positive person, but I just have this feeling of total doom.

:silly:

[A-Schwarzenegger]

42. We simply need to rename our feelings.

Rename "feelings of total doom" to "slight tickle in my sacroiliac."
Most concerns can be alleviated by renaming them.

[Ichingcarpenter]

36. I'm concerned you didn't suggest a PBS Palin VP forum too!

What's up with that?????

[A-Schwarzenegger]

43. I dont even know what that is to suggest it.

But the steering committee will take it up the next time
we meet in order to inform me.
