At what point does one become a "senior member"?

Hey, I have nothing to contribute to the discussion, either. Hence this post.

Mike -

Thanks for the post! There hadn't been a post here in nearly two days and I was wondering if this thread was going to die. You saved it!! Congratulations!

mayer

 

This thread is still going?

It's going like a wildfire in a dry timber forest out west.

 

Charge up the paddles... clear! I'm going in! Help keep this poor thread alive.

 

That's better! Normal sinus rhythym.

How to be a senior member??
Create the longest running thread in forum history.
Stay creative coming up with new and unusual twists to add.
Don't be afraid to post.
Feel free to ask questions.
Suffer one or two cases of insomnia along the way! LoL
All the best!

 

It is going like a wild fire because some posters want to achieve senior status by posting gibberish on this thread. Most of the messages in this thread appear nonsensical to me.

 

Gibberish! Let me make myself perfectly clear . Gerb nikkhtion neprical and defiltater pojk tiffle. Tredpprs and hhoplocator jutrect like a doftnom.

 

how to become a senior member

Get a can of the most cafeinated coffee available.
Brew it twice as strong as recommended.
Get a pillow for your chair.
Sunglasses for your eyes.
Ben Gay to keep the fingers agile.
Add to the longest threads available in "off topic" something witty and fresh---or half way through the coffee pot at about 3am, just add something.
Put aside all fears.
Utilize polls.
and hope people respond to you.
All the best!

 

Re: how to become a senior member

For those who do not care for coffee, may I suggest popping several cans of Mountain Dew? Alternatively, for those who care for neither coffee nor soda, Water Joe should suffice.

 

You think I'm gonna be left out?

Hey, I don't stand a rat's chance of making Senior but you think I ain't at least gettin' my two-cents in? I AM HEARD (even if I am a junior )


Stuck . . . ahem . . . Starkman!

 

Re: Re: how to become a senior member

International trivia:

In Canada, fruit flavoured drinks cannot be caffeinated. Mountain Dew has no caffeine.

Does this make too much sense?

 

Ah, the good old days.

We seniorized members who still post on this thread remind me of a line in a movie. (talking about dating high school girls-paraphrased) "I get older and they just stay the same".

Re: Re: Re: how to become a senior member

Just for the record, in the U.S. Mountain Dew contains more caffeine than all but a few soft drinks. Those with more include Afri-Cola, Jolt, and Sugar-free Mr. Pibb (Pepsi, Coke, RC, Tab, Dr. Pepper, to name a few, all have less).

But then this, indeed, does make too much sense.........back to the gibberish!...........and, in that regard.............................Caffeine-Induced Organic Mental Disorder 305.90 Caffeine Intoxication

 

"There was corporate malfeasance both before he took office and after," Clinton told a Washington television reporter. "The difference is I actually tried to do something about it, and their party stopped it".

 

remembering your log in

I guess being a "senior" member means you can remember you log in and password?
Caffeine is added to many popular sodas. It offers a "buzz" but has no role to play in the flavor.
All the best!

 

Re: remembering your log in

Yes.......provided, of course, you have them both written down on a post-it note near your computer.

 

Yellow Post-it Notes

You would not believe how many yellow post-it notes are around my office computer. I would guess, uhmmm, around 25.

I have small post-its on top of bigger post-its. They seemed important when I placed them there. Now I can't remember why I placed them there.

 

You know you are a senior member when...

You know you are a senior member when....
You have green post-its to tell you where your yellow post-its are!
You learned to type with one hand, originally so you could eat at the computer...
now you type with one hand due to carpal tunnel/arthritis etc.
You got a bigger screen so you could take your glasses off while at the computer. Now your computer screen is bigger than your tv screen.
Your wife says it is time for your son's high school graduation, and you thought he was still in middle school.
Your wife says she is having an affair, and you think, this is great, I won't have to share the computer with her as much.
You send everyone on degreenet Christmas cards.
You can't wait to see if anyone responded to your last post on correspondence courses and the island of St. Hillaire.
All the best!
