I am not sure it qualifies as pink. I see it fuchsia.

Vote for Cy to turn pink, and you'll be pink. Justice (of some sort)

Oh. Does that mean I voted on something? I don't recall voting. That doesn't necessarily mean that I didn't, I'm just saying I don't recall.

And, also, I would in fact vote for that.

The pink looks lovely with your complexion Georgina.

I prefer the pink, personally.
 
I remember voting, but I did not care about the color. I cared about the appendix (appbeginix ? prependix ?) to his avatar.

Thanks for bringing this up, Georgina.
I was more than a little alarmed to see my name in pink, and was very close to resetting my screen parameters.
I obviously missed any prior discussion of this (other than Greg's wish to paint the Penguin pink). Lacy's comments now make a bit of sense. That's a relief, because they originally just weirded me out. When she was squawking about wanting pink, I honestly thought only of the singer, who I like on several perverse levels. (What can I say? "Get this Party Started" is a great song.)

What can I say?

Nothing.

Thus, I say nothing.

Well done Greg, well done. We all fell for the trap!

Just noticed:

Every gold member I've seen is now pink. Did all of us really vote to turn Cyrus pink(I did... no lies:smile:)? Or was that a joke and is everyone who was gold now pink?

Thank you for pointing out the thread, Evo. Now I remember voting for something involving Cyrus.

I suppose the moral is: be careful what you vote for? :biggrin:

Looking at the member list, the contributors really pop out, I love it.

I thought I would "Squawk Up here. I love the pink and I wish I could stay pink.
I don't think pink is for everyone. Pink is a special color.
A lot of people work better with o-r-a-n-g-e. :zzz:
{SQUWAK!}

I didn't vote, but I'll roll with it.

I could be tarred with the same brush as a worse bunch of people... :wink:

It had nothing to do with voting.

This shade of pink clashes with my hair. What do I have to say about Cyrus to get the color changed to fluorescent green?

Oh Dear Person! Don't say ANYTHING about him or your dye will NEVER go away... EVER!

I want to say "neener, neener" so very much right now. But I like you too much for that. So I won't. But dang, it'd be fun.

Hey!

Was it all a dream :confused:?
 
  • #39
Well it was a beautiful dream. Thanks Greg.

Please consider a membership level program.
For 5.00 you can be brown. And we will send you a copy of "The Rockettes on an Off Day" In this cd you can watch all the Rockttes on a bad hair day with PMS. All dancers are bloated, cranky and scratching at their fellow dancers in rehersal.

For 14.00 you be orange. No adds, ability to go invisible so you can sneek and troll around.

For 36.00 you can be PINK :!) Be happy. Be strong. Be outwardly lovinging and caring.

{Squawk}

Limited time only. Must have been an Aerosmith tribute. The royalties alone must have been killer, not to mention the bandwidth.
