Dear Skinner, you should not have
mailed me a thank you letter and a DemocraticUndergound.com bumper sticker.

I'd rather you save the postage for more important things. You know that most of us donate whenever we can and as much as we can and do not expect any thank you note..

And, maybe, some day, DU will be an harmonious place again..

5. Oh, I've never noticed it
will have to, next time. Perhaps because this was the first time I used PayPal - that eliminated the need to be a member.. Previously I went through Amazon.

9. I've never given through Amazon
always through Paypal.
I have a couple of stickers sitting in a drawer so the last time I donated, I made real sure that I checked the box.:D

6. I checked the box. I still got the sticker.
I don't have a car, but it's always a cool way to represent.

7. I always check that little box
and now I have four bumper stickers.

I think there must've been a surplus to get rid of.

8. Yeah I e-mailed him a similar response because I had opted out of the
bumper sticker option because I have a black car that gets keyed enough as it is.

Thought there might be something buggy with that option.

There are still fully harmonious forums here. GDP may not be one of them for a short while longer.

Must be a wild time to be a mod.

Kudos to them.

12. Well it's obvious then, that Skinner is stinkin' rich and can easily afford
the sticker and the postage. He should have included a Hickory Farms gift basket, too. :7

16. I'm still waiting for the elaborate gift baskets for my DUzy's past,
but rumor has it the Nance and JeffR's puppy Zen is totally hoarding them.

Not really interested in cheese food though. Ughhh

& LOL

11. Put the bumper sticker on the car
so more people can come here and feel the love. :rofl:

Besides, I've heard a rumor, Skinner has inner harmony and isn't that what being a Democrat is all about?

15. there was a time that I displayed mine proudly
However...I have taken all the stickers off of my car.
Texas started putting the county of your residence on the inspection stickers and off came all of my identifying stickers. Some people are pretty nutso out there.

19. On occasions I get an email to participate in a polling thing
and often the question is whether I visit a blog regularly and if yes, which, and I answer: Democratic Underground. Not that this is a real blog but that's the only one I do. So this is one more way to spread the word.

13. I received a DU sticker, even though I requested NOT to get one.

They need to fix that bug and save our money for more important things.

14. Just don't go defacing any "Left Turn Only" signs with it.
Seriously. That would be bad, m'kay.

20. I believe there is an option to forgo the bumpersticker and thank you letter
when you donate.
