2. Welcome to DU!
Because he's a dingbat. :P

Seriously. Robb is A #1 OK!








Even though he is, by his own admission, a dingbat.


:loveya: Robb!

...and a standing joke arising out of his polls.

Besides. Robb's a dingbat.

(forgot the apostrophe - picky, picky, picky)

8. It's a meme
Robb is as cool a guy as possible and certainly no dingbat. No more than anyone else here that is.

9. The whole "Robb is a dingbat"
meme started with Robb himself putting it in all of his polls, it's kind of a running joke on here. We love Robb, and we would never REALLY consider him to be a dingbat (except for some of his polls!)

13. Robb is a dingbat, but that doesn't mean we love him any less...
We might actually love him more since he IS a dingbat and he's not afraid to admit it.

16. Let me tell you about Robb.
He showed up at my house one evening .....drunk as a skunk....He started banging on my door so hard that he broke the lock and cracked the glass. After he barged his way inside, he started making obscene gestures to my (then) girlfriend. She started crying and he just called her a "Two-bit whore". I asked him politely to tone it down a little and that's when he smashed me upside the head with the fireplace poker. He then ran upstairs and tried to stuff all my money and jewelry into his pockets. ....Luckily, my friends stopped him and held him while I tried to calm he down. He kept screaming about "Blowing all you Mother-Fuckers away" so we finally pushed him out the front door. He got in his car and started doing "Wheelies"
all over my and my neighbors lawn. He then purposely sideswiped my new car while laughing and cursing....
The last time I saw him he cut across the lot on the corner, knocking some poor old lady down while he sped away.

18. Oh...it did impress her...
she told me personally that she had finally found a man that was (as she put it) "A REAL He-Man"
Even after I told her about the door and your getting drunk and all she swore that someday, somehow ....You would be hers... :)
