You guys are seriously sick.  I've never fit in so fast (anywhere) in all my life.  (umm...is there a way to get out or is it, like, you know, a pact with the devil sort of deal?  I have an unmarried sister.  Can I trade her for my soul?  If I throw in a discount coupon for Windows Vista Ultimate and a McHappy Meal?  :( )

I'm staying.  I read each of your warm and thoughtful comments (a hearty thank you), and perhaps I would be cheating myself out of an opportunity to express my inner geek in community with other (inner or outer) geeks.  My manly charisma could take a serious hit if I'm ever caught here, but hey, who says I have to tell anybody I belong to Donation Coder?  I mean, Firefox has some excellent add-ons that'll switch my screen if I'm ever caught browsing the site.  Plus I can erase all my tracks just like I do for...umm...'educational' sites.  (Education is the foundation of good mental health, so I need lots of it.)

On a serious note: as you've probably concluded by now, remaining serious is a serious challenge for me, and I could be a corrupting influence.  But if you guys are willing to risk it, then so am I.  I'll take a more watch and learn approach, focusing on what drew me here in the first place: the chicks crafting and sharing information/recommendations on useful quality software.  So again, thank you for your warm comments.

Living Room / Apologies

I have obviously offended some members of Donation Coder with my admittedly very warped sense of humour.  It was not my intent to offend anyone, but I have, and I apologize for having done so.

To Deozaan:  I don't even know you, and nowhere in my post are you referenced, directly or indirectly, so I'm puzzled by your conclusion that I'm treating you like an idiot.  But thanks a lot for querying me for clarification first or giving me the opportunity to make amends for my offense (by editing my post and/or offering an apology) before resorting to muffling my thread.

I am resigning my membership, but not in anger or protest.  Web groups, clubs, and forums, are a lot like people: they have their own distinctive characters, personalities, and overall sense of humour.  I have mine, which I wouldn't change for the world, and therefore accept that I won't (nor shouldn't) fit in everywhere.  For the short time that I was a member of DC, I've come to regard both your in-house applications as well as your discounts for top quality software by commercial developers, as first class.  I sincerely wish DC and its members continued success, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend your site to anyone interested in programming or who'd like to belong to a community of others who enjoy developing/using great software.

Thanks,

Glenn Petrant

I would deeply appreciate having my question taken seriously and treated with sensitivity.  I...umm...I find certain fruits and vegetables very erotic.  So much so, that I've been banned from 3 major supermarkets in my home community last year.  One of them said that I, and I quote, 'fondled their melons in a lewd and lascivious manner unbefitting the dignity under which they've always conducted commerce in this family oriented community.'  Now where do these guys get off humiliating a fellow human being with a genuine medical condition called CUP (chronic untreated priapism), who likes to check his melons before making a purchasing decision?  Please discuss.  I mean, is that fascist or what?  Can any of you guys relate?  Have you never wondered why God (or mother nature) put a cleft in fuzzy peaches, but not in apples, oranges, or grapes?

What is the sound of one hand clapping?

'Oooohhh, I love it!' when it makes contact with my girlfriend's (bare) bottom.   :-*

(Sorry for cheating by asking a self-answering question.  A dirty one too.  Hey, if God can self-create, well...and there's no one dirtier than God.  He's the one who made us with dirty parts and dirty minds.)
