Why are you Here?

[corbe]

   Again, that Historical, dreaded Thread Jack Issue arises and me being one of the instigators of such chaos that causes grief apparently in some of our members, (I apologize, in advance).
   I thought a new, improved poll would better ascertain how Briefers really feel.

   I don't consider Trumpers Guest here, they are my Friends, but I turned Guest off to keep the Vote Legit.

[mystery-ak]

My vote

Stop with your whacked polls, corbe

[skeeter]

I hesitated before voting for 'inelligent discourse...'

[Ghost Bear]

Where's "None of the Above"?

I was dropped as a baby.  I don't see that choice...

[Polly Ticks]

Well you see, when a man loves a woman very, very much ...

[DB]

I mostly don't mind threads meandering as long as it isn't due to trolls...

[Bigun]

I hesitated before voting for 'inelligent discourse...'

I didn't!   All the while knowing that little of it will be found here.

[jmyrlefuller]

I was invited, and I've never felt the need to leave and stay away for very long.

[Sanguine]

Being a bit inelligent myself, I had to vote for that.

[Mom MD]

And for news not filtered through the alphabet soup

I came and went a couple of times, Myrle, but you've always been here.  Donut?

[240B]

I thought we just had a Why!? thread.
Oh well, another one is good too. Why not?

[corbe]

   The only time I've been gone since I got here, It wasn't my fault for whatever they timed me out for.

For the kittehs, the donuts and the people

It's a nice place.

The morning coffee is nice too.

I hope this answers your question @corbe, but I answered the third one.

Good morning. 🌞

It sure as hell wasn't t time.

I come here for news and to hide out in my corner of the lounge.  My friends come in and play with Prissy and eat cookies and drink Twinings tea.  I didn't vote in the poll.

NOW I KNOW! Why you are always cackling in the corner. You have cookies...

[RoosGirl]

The results of the poll show a clear mandate IMO

I know, right?

No one likes a smartass.

[Frank Cannon]

I voted for Free Pot.

[RoosGirl]

I voted for Free Pot.

I did my pee test yesterday so you could go ahead and make the Special Brownies for me.

[bigheadfred]

I voted for Free Pot.

WTF? This is a Free Pot Pol?

[Frank Cannon]

Listen. The "pee test" thing was just supposed to be between you and me.

OffTopicQuestion: is @corbe a TechnoMage?

I didn't see it, either. I enjoy the intelligent discourse.

[Frank Cannon]

Well then you have an extremely low threshold for what you consider "Intelligent Discourse".

[aligncare]

I suppose the truth eventually had to come out. The judge sentenced me to 300 hours of community service and there were no slots open in the litter removal crew. So, here I am.

Some days, the winnowing can be a chore. It's usually here, if you look for it.

Impeach the Judge.

I love cookies... and brownies... and donuts...with milk.

I'm the Cookie Monster!

Aren't you a stay at home mom?  You make yourself take a pee test for that?  And just how do you know you won't cheat?

Surely you're not serious.

[RoosGirl]

I am a stay at home mom, but just recently I was asked in to interview for a part time, work from home gig with an engineering firm that is about 2 hours away from me.  A girlfriend of mine used to work for them full time when she was in school and now she is a stay at home mom also and has been working for them part time from home.  She knew they've been trying to hire some experienced engineers but haven't been able to find anyone so she suggested me.  So I did a phone interview with them and now they want me to come in to the office for a half day and meet and talk with a few of the engineers that work in the office.  But they wanted me to do a drug screen before I came up.  It's the first time I've ever had to do one; interesting experience.

[GrouchoTex]

Why an I here?

Because I'm not there.....

[InHeavenThereIsNoBeer]

I wonder if @dave voted.

[Restored]

Dave's not here

[GrouchoTex]

I wonder if @dave voted.

Ironically enough, Dave is my real first name, not Groucho....

[Smokin Joe]

Dave's not here

Is God done with him? I figure I'm here 'cause God ain't done with me yet.

Oh. i'd have thought 'probation'.

Some come here to sit and think
Others come to ____ and stink.
But I come here to scratch my _____

[RoosGirl]

No, but keep talking that way to me and it might be. 

[bigheadfred]

No, but keep talking that way to me and it might be. 

In this world he is the one on probation.

And that would make you both masters.

At bation.

[roamer_1]

With all your fishing experience, it would seem you would be the master baiter...

[RoosGirl]

I've done quite a lot of fishing too.  I can bait with the best of them, but I'm no master baiter like y'all are.
