Well, I, for one, hate NYadgal! How dare she be so kind, generous and good-natured towards her friends? GRRRR!


And RobbieJ, I get the feeling we need to have a Dueling Divas night. Who's Brooklyn?

He didn't mention me at all...he came onto my thread to insult me, but didn't mention me...


Hmmm. I don't honestly think I've offended any former posters...

I'm sure the person who posted that has already logged in under their normal screen name and has resumed posting.

Oh, Robbiej! It's on! The only question is, what space could contain us? Certainly not the Duplex.
Madison Square Garden it is! :)

Time and again, posters who join that very day and post long diatribes that display voluminous information about habitual posters turn out to be previously disliked posters under new names.

This name, however, is a trifle too gay and clever to be RodneyK.

My guess is that Oscar de la Rentboy is none other than this weekend's pariah: Nameless Chorus Boy.

Don't you think the names reflect a similar weltanschauung?

Can't agree, Pal Joey.

Nameless.Chorus.Boy had a very particular ax to grind. An ax that really had nothing to do with anyone on this board, 'cept one particular poster who happens to have a Tony.

This particular rentboy has intimate knowledge of our posting habits and self-regard. But he/she has zeroed in on one particular group. I wonder what that's about.

The name is very interesting since I know there is indeed someone who posts on these boards and who is known by most actually had a brief career as a rentboy. But a lady never tells! Not even in PM's.

By "rentboy," do we mean someone who was in the chorus of a certain rock show, or do we mean someone who rents themselves out as a, well, for lack of a better word, gigolo?

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
