I must be really dense but the last time this came up it took me a full day to figure the "Dobie" out. This time when "move" and "movie" ended up in two threads in the main topic window I remarked "Hey! That should have been in the Dobie thread."

I can't remember how long it took me to figure out what a dobie was. It was definitely after I had already made one, thinking myself so clever I wasn't the worst n00b ever, but sometimes I think I should just come up with a new screen name and a blank slate.

I momentarily considered creating a dobie for the "Semi-Nude Gardening" thread entitled "Semi-Nude Gathering." It would have suggested going swimming somewhere in Wisconsin during the late spring/early summer (possibly in a quarry or something), but better sense prevailed and I decided against it.

"The internet makes you stupid" to "The intent makes you stupid." It's subtle and would have been great if I had dobied it early on. If I had actually gone through it, I would have made it a true dobie and had it a parody of the original thread (with a funny link of course). I might even do it if the initial post weren't so long on the original thread. It would take me faaaar too long to dobie that sucker.
