I've been here for a long time, but I haven't posted in awhile, and most of you probably don't remember me.

Hi all.

My last post was a long time ago when most of you probably hadn't joined DU yet. My last post was at 1055AM, way back on 6/16/25.

So I guess I'm just checking in to see how all of you newbies are doing.

Even though I barely post, I have quietly contributed over $35,000,000 to DU over the years.

There might be a few of you here who remember DUer "Bottlenose" and his antics, way back in early June 2025.

I wonder whatever happened to him?

Does anyone remember him constantly posting how he trained his pet gopher how to knit? The stories he used to tell were hilarious!

Well, that's all I have for now! I haven't really been following politics recently, since running my yodeling school for senior citizens is taking up most of my time.

Have a nice day! I'll see you in a few years.

Lucky Strike cigarette butt under there from 1968. It's only about an inch long, but it tastes pretty good!

Do you think you can treat us like an old dishrag??? Thrown in the corner till you need to “clean the pipes”? I bet you think we’d all be smiles ‘n beers when you came back!

ca. 1966. The only 'knock knock' joke that got a natural, spontaneous laugh out of me.

38. But I AM a physician!

I'm my only patient though, because I really am not a "people person".

So every morning, I look in the mirror and diagnose myself by saying "You're a sick fuck".

Then, I pay myself $900 for a personal consult.

Then, my insurance company calls me and says "we're only allowing you to pay yourself $60 for your personal consult.

So I have to write off the difference.

I think I chose the wrong career path.

I wrote "True Dough" on it with an ultrafine Sharpie.

You're my next patient.
