Mister Rogers and the Special Thread

“Hello boys and girls.
Welcome to my neighborhood.
We have a special thread for you today.
Today we're going to help a little friend of ours find her indentity.
Can you say that word? "I-den-ti-tee"?
I knew you could.
Do you know what your identity is boys and girls?
Your identity tells us who you are.
Yes it does.
And I just know that no matter what your identity is, you're special.
That's right.
Even you, Spirit. And not because you ride your own special little bus.

Today we're going to help our little friend Gemeni.
Gemeni is special too.
But Gemeni wants a new identity.
She wants a new trail name.
And she wants you to help.
Here's how Mister Rogers knows that:

"now I need a new trail name, cus "gemini" isn't a real trailname dammit.
even i did sort of got used to it. BUT i won't leave it up to the TT board to pick a name...heck nope..”
Gemini

What do you say boys and girls? Can you help Gemeni find a new identity?
Sure you can.
What about "Shadow" because of her famous shadow photos?
Or how about "Tree Licker"?
C'mon boys and girls, work with me here.
You know Gemeni better than Mister Rogers does.
Don't make Mister Rogers have to take off his PF Flyers and spank you.
Can you say that? "Open-up-a-can-of-whoop-ass"?
I knew you could.

Mister Rogers wants you to help Gemeni find a new name.
In the meantime Mister Rogers is going to take a trip to the Land of Make Believe.
Mister Rogers is going to imagine himself in a hot tub with a Swedish masseuse named Svetlana.
Svetlana is stacked.
Can you say "stacked"?
I knew you could.

Thank you for being my neighbor today.
Run along now. Run along and help Gemeni.”

“pinkbikinihiker?”

“How about Shewhocanbeatthe#&%!$outtaya :D”

“Undies uber alles”

“How about 'Earschplittenloudenboomer'?”

“Doing It In There”

“Little did I know, Mr. Rogers was an evil man. By telling children they're special just for being who they are, he helped create an entire generation of worthless, lazy socialists who think they're entitled to rewards without working. Children should go back to churning butter and making their own sweaters!

See for yourself.”

“You're right Kleetus, children should have a life of harshness so they can grow up to learn how to deal with azzholes on Trail Talk.”

“LOL..once again the experts find some special target while overlooking the multiple examples of real examples (like Parents) who I think had a heck of a lot more effect.

You know I hear parents #&%!$ing about how kids are so "disrespectful" today. Yet when the kids do something I have seen hundreds stand there and tell the authorities "My Baby didn't do this."

LOL”
