On Facebook, I just received a notification that I have "1 (Lil) Green Patch request" (some sort of extra application for the site).
I'm sure all you other BDers can understand who that instantly reminded me of...

 I received that one as well and had to accept it just because it had such a good name... (Me, an egoist? No way!)

Talk to the lonely Stoor
When you get depressed when no one ever answers your posts. When you feel that the only friends you have are online and when you say 'my friends' you'e reffering to the other BDers.

When someone starts telling about their dreams and says "I dreamt that Iron Maiden had a gig in metro...", your first reaction is: "IronMaiden? Who's that? Should I know her? Is she a newbie?"
Also, if you happily write "wolves" when you should write "vowels"...

A discussion in my creative writing class about describing a room...
Lecturer: So, there's a telephone in the room. What kind? Me: A paper one.
