1. Well if they're really leaving
DU, it's nice of them to say Goodbye.

3. Though I am guilty of it
most copycat threads are not funny.

4. exactly.
Who doesn't like a good copycat? Or a bad one for that matter?

9. I also love copycat threads
As long as the original thread is still on the front page of the Lounge.

5. Depends on the reason for the leaving...
the slam the door drama... is one thing.

The life is getting complicated - can't be around but I wanted to say bye for now... another thing altogether.

I get the latter - and actually appreciate them.

But then I shouldn't play this poll, given that from time to time I can not resist the copycat impulse. Sorry. :shrug:

6. You forgot another choice: What ever happened to "so and so" threads.
This usually applies to former DU'ers who "disappeared" in the last 48 hours or so. These can be "High Drama" threads, sometimes.

:D

:hi:

8. I love copycats threads.
But I have a very sophomoric sense of humor, so go figure.

:shrug:

12. Copycats more than "leaving DU"
Edited on Mon Mar-28-05 10:46 PM by mcscajun
If someone's really leaving, that's one thing.

I'm leaving for the night, or I'm leaving to run errands...Pah!
I lump them in with copycats. Mostly bandwidth waste.

13. Oasis threads top them both
for inanity. But it would be nice if they would all disappear.
