I remember what it’s like to be new here. It’s intimidating. Everyone seems to have known each other their whole lives. It’s hard to get a sense of the conversational flow. Inside jokes. So many inside jokes.

But stick around. If you’re newish, post here. Get to know other newish people. Ask the locals questions, like “what is up with everyone saying “tallish” anyway?” and “So is he really a stripper or is he actually a cop?” Or even “why do people keep asking my credit score??”

We like new people. So stick around. Don’t try to figure out why no one liked your post and some other rando got like 16 likes for saying ‘Texas’. Ask all your questions and more here. Nothing is off the table.

    I'd love @Sugar_Pill if she came back as a newbie. :disappointed: I miss her.

    The best part about Kevin is that no one really knows who Kevin is..... Well, one guy did. He was frantically looking for him.

    I still wonder if they were reunited.

    I like new people. Well most, not all. :blush:
    But when they have that soft innocence before the politics of chat boards corrupts them. It's really beautiful. Like freshly fallen snow. :wink:

    Off topic.

    I just wanted to say I pmed you a couple (?) Weeks ago. When there was still some questions about pm glitches. I sent one that said Sup, asked your a/s/l and talked about Keto. It was just a test message. :smiley:

    I didn’t know the cream puff thing or the Kevin thing, plus I’m wearing tights with no underwear and I can vouch that it is indeed uniquely terrible
