34. AND I Have No Idea What This Is All About!

Sat Oct 10, 2015, 08:02 PM

Oct 2015

I have to admit that I leave DU and come back many times and it seems those times I'm gone some sort of prank has been going on for a while. Or maybe it's something else completely different. I've seen the some posts about Steve and googled him but I must be out in "LEFT" field and missed something.

I feel rather stupid even asking what's going on, and even more stupid because I've been a member here since 2004 and generally feel my opinions are very close to MannyGoldstein, at least 90 to 100% of the time.

Sounds like some sort of dual personality or maybe an inside joke. If someone like me doesn't understand this I must be totally out of the loop, missed the situation completely which makes me think I'm the doofus to be laughed off this board.

So even if I am such a doofus I can't help myself from being curious and opening myself up for ridicule. Re-reading this post even looks like I've lost a few marbles. Is it possible to get an explanation of this or should I just go away scratching my head????
not enough smilies to add how I feel!
