i'm posting here because it affects mainly people who attempt to write poetry.
i personally have just deleted all those names on my buddy list. the reason being twofold. a i don't really have that much time to be buddies with all those who request it and two; anyone can pm me to talk or ask advice about the site. while i would like to have a large buddy list it just isn't feasible. i hold many who sent requests in high esteem but i just haven't the time to keep checking my user cp page
i think the ignore list a good thing for members but the buddy list seems defunct; we can pm anyone and make friends should it be required. i know i talk via pm to a few people already without having them on my buddy lists.

To be honest, I never knew there was a symbiotic type "buddy" list here until yesterday when Dale told me, so imagine my surprise that had requests just sitting there. Didn't mean to snub those folks who had requested. You shall all receive a lapdance, free of charge.

Hey, I've got nobody on my list. 
I'll be your lap-dog, if you'll be my bosom buddy?

Hey Billy,
I guess I must be one of those people who attempt to write poetry. Maybe someday I will learn how. I was hoping you would teach me Billy, but since you are kicking me off your buddy list I guess I'll never learn to write poetry. That makes me feel so sad
I don't know what a buddy list is suppose to do, I use it for easy access to PM people and to be able to check on what they have written. Without the list, it is more difficult to find their names, many of them I can't remember how to spell, or just what the avatar name is. I know Chris pretty well, but I could easily forget his nom de plume is ChristopherSea, then the only way I have to look him up is to go find something he has written or responded to. This can take quite a large amount of time. What I don't understand is: why does the Buddy list need to be reciprocal; why does it no longer PM the person to let them know they have a request? As far as I know you cannot store links in the notepad. If I could store links there, it would do the same as what I use the list for. I didn't know it did anything else.
Your buddy no more,
Dale

you are the Lenny Bruce of our times (: (I tried to find the Youtube video of Lenny Bruce 'saying stuff' to drum rolls and cymbal crashes, but apparently it doesn't exist anymore in youtube form).

I have a great theme for the insurrection protest signs: "Billy is a snob, steal his nob." or for mel as she is a female type person "Billy is a snob jerk his nob! Harder, harder! Go team!" (Kick leg as high as you can, show female parts)
OK, that one is for me. I mean I've got mel to kick her leg high like that a number of time, but she always hits me in the face, so she knocks me out and I don't get to sneak a peak
What were we talking about?

Well we know those cocks were always game. We use to play the National Aeronautic Divisional School, NADS for short. Their cheer was:
We're NADS
You're NADS
Go NADS
Go!
I always thought it was a pretty ballsy cheer.

The Baytown, Texas high school football team regularly plays the one from Corpus Christi, Texas.
On game day the banners read "Beat Corpus Christi".

Oh please. Texas has nothing on tennessee as far as weird town names. We have a Moscow, and a Paris (we love plagiarism)
but here are some of the funniest:
Finger
Flippin (such as shame those towns didn't merge)
Nameless (self-explanatory)
Smartt (the extra t is cuz we's extra smart)
Bitter End (probably where I've ended up)
Buck Snort (it's the latest drug)
Deep Gap (this should be right beside Finger....where the hell were the planners)
Difficult (yes, yes it is. Even when you're Smartt)

I thought "deep gap" was a porn film?
BTW Shem in Texas we don't speak Latin, so we call that city the "Body of Christ" as in the "Body of Christ" high school. Can you imagine. You have to stay late to finish some work that is due that day and your girl friend calls you wanting to know where you are at, and you say, "I'm still in the body of Christ, doing so work." Da-dum ching!
Sorry, I know that wasn't funny, I just couldn't resist.
Mike Williams a folk singer who at one time was from Texas wrote a couple of songs about the names of Texas towns. One was "I'm proud to be, from Dumas (dumb ass) Texas. The other involved two towns "High" and "Happy" Texas. The last line of the song was "hi, I', Happy and High." Well it was funny when he played it.
Here's a link to someone playing "I'm Proud to be From Dumas Texas." Although his performance leaves a lot to be desired.
