i have a friend who lurks here. (you know who you are, skank!) she has been lurking here for about as long as i have been posting. i need you all to help me to convince her to come out in the open, cos she's funny and smart and i think that ile could so do with her presence.

so, lets all start nagging for duckling to start posting.

hey duckling did i embarass you? post, woman!

― di, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

POST!

― james, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

DON'T LURK!

― james, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Duckling? Aw. Fret not, Di's friend, you can be as (entertainingly) rude or polite as you like here and we won't care. And we're all friendly except when we're not, but there's relatively little of that. :-) Post away!

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

hey duckling! tell us about auckland!

― di, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

you should stop lurking because i have a friend who's also lurking and he might want to meet you (assuming yer a she, my friend's a letch).

― Tadeusz Suchodolski, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

If your letch friend is bi, this isn't a problem, surely.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

duckling? what an awesome name

― Honda, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

duckling
tell us about yourself.

― anthony, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

can you start a thread for lurkers to show ourselves, and ease us gently into posting? I've been lurking for ages and am quite bored at the moment.

*doh* just revealed myself haven't i?

― jellybean, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Hurrah! Welcome to Jellybean. :-) In fact there is such a thread, but I don't know where it is offhand. Nick D. likely can provide this info for us.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

um didn't make it clear, but i'm not the person that this thread was originally set up for her to delurk

hmmm that didn't make any sense did it?

― jellybean, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh, I know, that's Duckling. But you're new too, so welcome anyway. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh, I know, that's Duckling. But you're new too, so welcome to you. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Bah, I revise my answer to be nicer and it ends up posting both.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Feh on nicky d: the thread is here…

― mark s, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

jellybean! Hello. It's a small world. Mind you, you probably have no idea who I am, and there's no reason why you should do. But you should post. And so should duckling. We're below our duck quota since Mr Duckyfuzz left, and even mark s's occasional bouts of pretending to be one haven't made up the shortfall.

(oh yes, so I don't sound like I'm stalking you and not telling you who I am, I'm the person who used to run a really shit Nought webpage. I'm going to regret admitting to that now, probably there are billions of the same people who sneer at me in an indier-than-thou manner at gigs reading and any illusion of me being anything less than the biggest dork in the world will be shattered. But hello.)

― duck s, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

rebecca, I remember you! There should be more nought websites on the interweb.

and being dorky at gigs is great. I'm usually the geeky one in the corner anyway!

― jellybean, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

hey duckling! i'm going to pick up the CDs tonight! i'm excited, i can't wait...i'm also picking up the CDs Chris copied for us, i will get Clayton to take your copy up to auckland for u. *pokes at computer* i know you're in there!

― di, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

*guilt*
*guilt*
I'm sorry, duck s, I did not mean to doubt your duckliness, but the fun-fur confused me: I have never before seen a purple and green furry duck.

― Rebecca, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Duckling please post, please

― maryann, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

>>you should stop lurking because i have a friend who's also lurking and he might want to meet you (assuming yer a she, my friend's a letch). <<

― di, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Jeez n' Shucks Im just shy. u bolshie Di. I'm also bored. so ello all...

― ducklingmonster, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Hurrah again! :-) Hello there, Duckling. Post as often or as little as you like. Nothing wrong with being shy. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Thanks Ned. Thoes smiles are very friendly - kinda like a cult.

― Ducklingmonster, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I am perhaps addicted to emoticons, oh well.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Shouldn't that be: oh well :( Ned? Now I'm addicted to posting ; 7

― ducklingmonster, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Kia Ora Duckling-pie, wonderful to see you could make it onto ILE. How is Auckland, and please, tell us all how you intend to beat Jon doof explosion into submission? No doubt I will be accosted by him in a pub later on so I will tell you all about his reaction in blow by blow detail.

By the way, perhaps Ned is trying to start a love in?

― Menelaus Darcy, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I was gonna say not to bother because we'll probably all hate you, but you might as well continue now you've got started...

― Ally C, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

A love-in? Only inasmuch as new people are cool and why not make them feel welcome? :-) And yes, I guess I forgot an emoticon up there or something. ;-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

clearly you have a lot of love to share if people in general are cool :)

dammit you've got me started now too

― Menelaus Darcy, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Success! And nothing wrong with sharing more love. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I dont know about your area but round here you can get arrested for showing too much love

― Menelaus Darcy, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

eeewww luv inn. Help Mene! Ned is scary. Ally knows the cool way to invite someone - its all about not caring. Nice nagging Di.

― ducklingmonster, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Lord, I tease! Trust me, I can be as cynical and crabby as the next person. And yes, Ally C has a good way to view things.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I would like to greet you all with these eight words : I am a never win cheatbox.

― Mike Hanle y, Monday, 17 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I agree Duckling, Ned you are frightning us. There is only so much niceness I can take...

― Menelaus Darcy, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i'm afraid ned is having a little problem deciding where he sits on the gothy/hippy scale.

soon he shall be sending out daisy chains to everyone. and i will have to have a dream about an il* hippy cult in the middle of a field in tennessee.

eep!

― nancy b., Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You must be cool cause you're friends with Di. Or maybe cause it's freezing. Err no cause it's hot in New Zealand. Shit you are from NZ, Di,aren't you? :-) Anyhow stop lurking, silly! Post away. To make it easy for you, I'll ask you a question.
First question: what's the colour of love?

― helenfordsdale, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Shit, just realized you have already started posting. So uh yeah what IS the colour of lurve, baby? :-)

― helenfordsdale, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

an engorged pink.

― anthony, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

pinkieblueyyellowiegreeny sort of cool with soft undertones of warm hues bursting through to contrasting primary colours of dull earthy tones. no its pink.

― ducklingmonster, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

oh my god cool, duckling is here! thanx ile, mission accomplished.

― di, Tuesday, 18 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

yes i am from dunedin helen, but i am not too cool for emoticons. :-)
