3. Complete waste of bandwidth. Sorry.
Have you nothing serious you're thinking about? I guess I don't understand why you bothered to post in the first place.

4. Probably has as much time on his hands as you seem
to have on your own. You must be bored to tears in order to think netcopping is a worthwhile use of time.

7. I post on DU as a break from my work. I work for myself, you see,
Edited on Wed Oct-19-11 03:14 PM by MineralMan
and I work at a very fast pace. About every 15 minutes, I take a bit of time and shift to something else. Keeps the blood pressure down. Then I return to my work. It's very nice of you to take an interest in my activities, though, I must say. It shows a genuine concern for a stranger's well-being, and that's quite rare these days. :rofl:

35. What you want to do is get the address of the image
to paste in your post. You're not copying the image itself, just its location on the net.

I've stolen your avatar -- thank you -- BUT can't use it 'cause I'm not a donor. Oh well. Thanks anyway.

16. That's cool. Throw a few bucks in Skinner's direction, and get a star.
You too can enter into the magical world of du's inner circle. I was losing my hair until I got a star. Now my hair is as lush as Rick Perry's.

18. Just download mine to your computer, then go to options, edit my profile,
And you will see a section that shows how to add an avatar. You can use the one's offered, or upload your own.

27. The BoA news pushed me over the edge, I'm all in now.
I'm going to spend as much time, give as much support to our local Occupy. To people like the bankers of BoA, Chase, and others we are just peasants. This peasant is standing up.

13. Don't take mine.
I already stole it from Peter Max.
Just kidding. Thanks for the effort and offering it up.

I don't know why some people are so upset with your post. No one on here can honestly say anyone else on the internet is "wasting their time" as if you're stealing the time they could be investing in "Angry Birds".

It was a play on Michelle Bachman's play on the 9-9-9 plan.
In fairness you may have been occupying at the time she said it.
