The best donation I ever made to DU! Hope you enjoy : )

[Dystopian]

I remembered this post as I recently renewed my DU membership.....Some of you may see yourselves here....

I logged in, saw him griping about donating, so I donated $10 for his star...just for fun. It was during a fund drive, so he immediately had the red words next to his name: "I donated to the (whatever) fund drive." three minutes after his post! Below, as you can see, was my email from Skinner, three minutes later!

Dear Dystopian,

Thank you so much for your donation to Democratic Underground. This is
a completely independent website, and we depend on the donations of
members like you to help cover our expenses.

You assigned the donor star to JayMusgrove. Thanks to your
generosity, that DUer will enjoy donor privileges for one year.

What ensued was hilarious, and I never knew...didn't see the thread until the next morning. By that time he was banned!
I couldn't believe my eyes.....I was in hysterics, but I just thought about it....and wanted to share.
I only wish that I hadn't left DU that night....I would have enjoyed watching the thread move along
Even GrovelBot got in on it

Hope you enjoy:

JayMusgrove still has that star!

Swede still doesn't know if Skinner washes his feet!

JayMusgrove ~ RIP.

peace~

Love....Priceless ..

6. Yeah, well I've got my ass in a computer chair typing into DU and she's out mowing the lawn.

I can't handle the mower very well anymore. Hey, it just shut off. Maybe that means she's ready to sit in the yard for a while before karate!

3. What a hoot! And,....I think I finally discovered where MiddleFingerMom got the inspiration for his

screen name. Thank you!

Kali spent a lot of time and effort talking me into checking this site
out and the twists in our humor were so similar that she half-assumed
that he was me -- having joined without tewlling her.

I was so flattered thst I riffed off of his name for my own.

I (and many others) miss him.
