I'm feeling YES-stalgic about DU today. Join me!
Too often, NO-stalgic threads here devolve into long threads with the old (cough) hands like me telling stories about stuff that went down here years ago, and the newer members feel excluded.

So, tell a YES-stalgic story about "one time at DU." Which means a story that didn't actually happen. :D

I'll start... remember that time I took hostages at the Chrysler Building and posted idiotic polls until Skinner agreed to have 60 boxes of Ding Dongs and a flat of PBR brought in? Good times, good times....

It was a good day.

3. I remember that one time at DU when
California Peggy had that huge flameout, cussed out both Skinner and EarlG.

Then when they publicly warned her, she doubledog dared them to TS her. Boy, THAT was a thread!

She was lucky to get back. But I'm glad she did.

7. There was that time that swimboy, Midlo and I had to hide in the dumpster from the cops,
after accidentally starting a fire in the pornographic magazine warehouse.

Fun times.
