Hey I have been here for over 4 years and I dont know what the Monkey mascot thingy is... help me! Gym Rats, they unite to work out. Bears, they have silly bear names. Go to groups, you will see the group for them!

Thought I'd bump this one up for the newest members of the forum and also add two:

1) MO for Morbidly Obese

2) and for personal reasons, since I can't seem to get the accent to work without a lot of hassle on one of my computers, I'd like to add "DF" for my "Dear Fiancé"

(His name is Geof, and sometimes I use that too, but DF is just faster and I can be lazy sometimes, LOL)

T-T, the sock monkey, and the TT Bears are both sweet, fun ways that folks have used to bond and become closer. T-T the monkey is especially dear, as he is the material manifestation of the love on this forum. T2 tends to travel to peeps who could use a good group hug or just some physical reminder of how much we all love each other here. (Check it out! With this last year you have had, I bet you could use some T-T!)

The TTBears are just another group of international posters who have found a like minded way to identify each other.

Neither of these factions are political or elitist. Anyone is more than welcome to join in the fun, and (other than picking a bear name) nothing is expected of anyone! It's just good old fashioned internet humor.
