Level 2 alert!

[cbayer]

How am I supposed to know who to hate without their avatars and signature lines?
And how am I going to zing people I don't like if I can't threaten to ignore them or ignore their new threads?
And excuse me, but if I have to see people I don't agree with on the Greatest Page, how in the world am I going to continue keeping myself in the dark?

Please tell me what happens when we get to Level 3! Should I get out my hasmat suit now? The masking tape?

You people are terrifying me.

21. I would tread carefully if I were you. these are shark-infested waters.

Just keep your sense of humor and stay out of the mud.

35. Darth, honey. Could you give me a little of that happy syrup you are taking? Please?

It's been awhile and I just need a little.
No, seriously. Welcome to DU. You are going to pegged as a newbie and not treated very nicely at times. Be careful about taking a position unless you really have a point to make and can really back it up....they will BBQ you.
But it's good overall. Lots of passion and enthusiasm. A great time to be a democrat.

37. Is that my ex-boyfriend Jack on your table?

Hey Jack! Still love you.
Hillary needs support. A lot. I am personally a Clinobama fan. Whoever loses, I will be sad.
Just saying, people are going to poke you.
But I'm not your momma. Go for it.

44. you call it "testing out the waters" but i call it something a bit different

--if your favorite city is chicago i guess it's fine. i live in a western suburb. we're fine here too. thanks.

45. um...i'm not your "bro" and i'm not a "bro"

[seabeyond]

25. i live in the panhandle of texas. 3 repub men have said they would vote obama

old conservative country club white boys......i thought that was interesting.

first presidential sign in the area. ron paul. no surprise. second one i saw obama. another surprise

talked to republican hubby today. asked if obama won, would he vote mccain or obama.... obama he says. how about if clinton won. he would vote clinton. good to know my repub hubby isnt voting repub.

that is what i am seeing in this area. the fiscal conservative, not religious nut male seems to be liking obama. the religious.... they dont like any of the choices including mccain

[seabeyond]

2. why the hell are we on two..... didnt even know. lol lol

i feel like i am suppose to be whispering and looking around to make sure i am not being overheard

and being on level 2, isnt that a who the f*ck cares about all the stuff you are whining about. bigger fish to fry. level two by gosh, lol lol

[cbayer]

4. The machines have had enough of all this and have taken over. nt.

[seabeyond]

9. my eyes almost popped out, until

i got hold of reality again. geeeesh, you scared me for a minute.

5. at some point only DU'ers with donor stars get to post

not sure what level that is

[seabeyond]

7. damn.... i had better get to donating.... lol lol. totally forgot my star

feelin so naked

[cbayer]

12. You think it might be a fundraising ploy?

To scare us into doing something before it's too late (and the terrorists WIN!)

[Lex]

15. I've been here since 2001 and it usually doesn't

reach that level until Election Day, iirc, or maybe when other Big Deal Events happen.

I think it's a way to keep the disruption to a minimum and to allow actual contributing members to interact.

[seabeyond]

[cbayer]

13. OMG! You should start your own thread with that.

It is magnificent!

[islandmkl]

10. HELP!! Are we in orange or yellow or fuscia or what?

It's not right that the government uses colors and DU uses numbers. Very confusing. Someone could get hurt.

[cbayer]

16. STAGE 2 ISLAND!!!! This is way too serious for colors. That's for republicans. nt.

[islandmkl]

17. which way are we counting? up or down? can this all be kept track of on one hand?

Where's my damn umbrella? damn...

[cbayer]

19. OK, Island, let me see if i can 'splain it to you in plain english.

Level 0 - good, everything fine, don't worry, we are not afraid.
Level 1 - ok, we are having a few problems - nothing major. We have to take a few toys away, but it will be fine.
Level 2 - well.....we might have been overly optimistic. There are a few more things you are going to have to sacrifice.
Level 3 - ???????????

[Hawkeye-X]

14. Batten down the hatches. Turn on the klaxons!
