<p>Ooh, I got one of those light green squares! I’m with the cool kids now! :D</p>
<p>Going to spread some loving.</p>
<p>My kids had a tape of music about Australian animals. One song had the line, “I’m a koala, not a bear, and I don’t think it’s fair, the way something something something…I’m a marsupial, and proud of it, Can there be any doubt of it? I’m closer to a kangaroo than I am to a bear.”</p>
<p>You have to sing proud and doubt with the proper accent, of course. :)</p>
<p>There is a fellow with the screen name bruno14 who is a student at Brown and incredibly helpful with answering questions within that section. The poor fellow deserves some green status, but no one who frequents there seems to have a clue. I hit him once early on and once more yesterday, but he’s still stuck on his original road.</p>
<p>Might a few of you be willing to give him a click-through up to 2 or 3 squares? If you are on my repeat cycle and waiting for a reload, skip me this round and pass it on to him; just post here that you did and I’ll check you off and keep you on my repeat list.</p>
<p>I’m sort of thinking ahead here for that day a few weeks from now where everyone who frequents this particular thread is capped off. At that point, maybe we can evolve into a “pounce posse” that loads squares on random underappreciated do-gooders.</p>
<p>Oh I love SAT vocab words. I actually cried a little when they took out the analogies… <sigh></sigh></p>
<p>LoremIpsum, I love your idea and have started a new notepad with bruno14 on the list.</p>
<p>Would be happy to help bruno ( and I am waiting to help griffen) but am till tapped out at present.</p>
<p>How many more to go, jym, before your “brilliant future” ends?</p>
<p>I’m tapped out, too, for a couple more hours, but will rep when reloaded. Who’s griffen? Have I been missing somebody?</p>
<p>I am in the double digits!! How about yours??</p>
<p>Griffen was a kind poster who gave me some reps, though I don’t recall for what post. I actually have gotten some reps for apparently helpful posts in other threads, to my surprise :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Congratulations! Yet you still have a brilliant future. Does that mean the game is over?</p>
<p>I got quite a few random reps, too, most frequently for my quirky humor.</p>
<p>Oh no, we can’t have a Koala. </p>
<p>After all, that cute but lazy thing Eats, Shoots & Leaves. The rep game needs an image of persistence, hard work, and abnegation. </p>
<p>The next thing we will debate why, commas really do, make a difference.</p>
<p>confetti, I loved the analogies as well. Here’s one for you:</p>
<p>mylar:confetti = ____:marsupial</p>
<p>a) pouch
b) pretigiousity
c) koala
d) Tufts Syndrome</p>
<p>BTW, no need to gift me anymore. I am eternally grateful for all the squares and will continue to reward all of you, but very satisfied with my current “name known to all” status.
(And I too have been getting random reps on other threads, especially when I offer to call admissions officers on behalf of the posters.)</p>
<p>OMG LOL, neuroticparent!1 I sprayed the computer! </p>
<p>If quirky humor = rep points, many of us would be off the scales !</p>
<p>How 'bout this for a mascot, xig?

<p>Poor Jym, that last station on the Golgotha Hill is really steep. Perhaps time has come to put her out of her misery and end the cavalry. </p>
<p>Get your cocktail glasses out; it will be there before you know!</p>
<p>Looking forward to the celebration! I am off to an Irish wake in an hour (seriously). Never been to one before. Should be an experience.</p>
<p>Puurfect, Jym. Do they still make those in Kansas?</p>
<p><>((!!HUGS!!))>></p>
<p>PS Remember to only move the feet at the wake; not the arms!</p>
<p>So I repped xiggi, lorem, VAmom, GAmom,Northminn, soccerguy, bookworm and a bunch more I cant remember. It wouldnt let me rep moreover, someone, 12rmh, jym, tigergal, poet, krlilies, blueiguana claiming I have repped them too recently. I don’t THINK so!</p>
<p>I thought the pink {{hugs}} better matched the ruffly stationery, xig. </p>
<p>dowzerw-
saw your post here and int he other thread. Thanks for trying-- dont give up. I am chugging slowly up this hill, as hard as I can, with the help of you you kind cc’ers.</p>
<p>Too bad we cant rep ourselves :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>There are a few among us who can, actually. Not me but a few oldtimers.</p>
<p>{{{{{xoxoxo!!}}}}</p>
<p>?? huh, loremipsum??</p>
<p>** oh, I think I know what you are referring to.</p>
