Oh yeah I don't mind that the posts were about us, I think that's cool.

Yeah, when I say college, I'm meaning like a university. That's interesting, college means 7th to 12th grade where you are! High school in US is generally 9th to 12th.

I don't want to get everybody in the wrong mood or anything like that, but when I think back on it, I was literly bullied and picked on every single year that I went to school, and every year it just got worse.

But I guess this is also a place where we can just get to know each other a little better, too.

Oh, gosh, Ilikemuppets, I'm so sorry you were treated that way. You totally don't deserve it, man.

I'm noticing a trend. Muppet fans = Outcasts. Occasionally bullied outcasts because we don't care about fitting in with the annoyances and of course, as Kevin Clash said, we "sleep with puppets". I prefer to call them "decorative pillows", but whatever.

That is really, really true. And honestly, I am sorry to hear that any of us here had to deal with any kind of bullying or teasing or anything like that. It's horrible.

MBM, maybe some Muppet fans tend to be outcasts, which just seems kinda odd... and actually, I have yet to meet someone who's not a Muppet fan in some way. Must depend on who you run into, I guess. And I am enjoying learning more about everyone here, too.

That's very nice of you to say so MBM, thank you and bless you heart.

Richard Hunt fans=Outcasts.

But your right baby, it's amazing how much the Muppets really are liked.

Well, yeah, of course, everyone's a Muppet fan. Right. I meant, like, ones that are willing to admit they're, like, Sesame Street fans and stuff like that. Those are the non-conformist ones which are of course looked down upon by jealous and confused conformist ones....I don't know, it's late. That's not even close to any kind of advice. It's incoherant rambling. I apologize.

Of course R.H. fans are outcasts. Da cooliest outcasts though. :cool:

Good night all. Pleasant Richard dreams.

I understand about the bullying, ilikemuppets. For me, elementary and middle school was an extremely difficult time for the same reason. It took me awhile to realize I shouldn't listen to people who were being mean.

I guess that's what I mean when I say school should not define a person's existence forever. We all keep evolving and learning. :smile:

I think we are outcasts a little bit in the RHLC, since Richard isn't that well known and maybe not the obvious choice. But hey, we ended up being an extremely successful thread. So, yay us!

I think I should have mentioned this earlier, but I'll go ahead and mention it anyway.

They're going to a display a portion of the AIDS Quilt on the Great Lawn here from ten to two tomorrow. I think that's really cool, and I'm going to go out and view it...and if I see one of Richard's patches in there I'll let you know.

That's cool! I've never seen the AIDS quilt in person before. Let us know what it's like either way.

Thanks, sweetie. It really can surprise me sometimes.

Erin, that is really awesome! I've never seen the AIDS quilt before in person either, so I'm definitely with heralde... I'd love to hear what it's like if you see one of Richard's patches or not. That would definitely be an extra perk if one of his was in there, though, huh?
