@Mahnax just do what all the other mid-rep users are doing. answer every friggin' question even if it's a useless question, off-topic, dupe, or gen-ref, and even if it has lots of answers already. then sit back and wait for votes to come in even though your answer doesn't deserve any.
You'll be at the top in no time. Several very high-rep users have achieved success in this way.
@Mahnax now listen here you young whippersnapper. Back in my day there was no internet where little rascals like you could make fun of codgers like me. Well, there was, but you had to be in academia or interent industry in order to use it. We had to dial in to bulletin boards at 2400 baud.
Well, if you can call it that when you are explaining to a bunch of physicists that getting finger-ed on the old VAX system doesn't actually count as losing your virginity.

Hello @kiam! Thanks for the edit but I reedited it.

I have a weird style which I like to follow for my own posts.
In Dutch language we use the expression "tot en met" to signify a quantity between two measures including the last measure. So, for instance, the following:
woensdag 22 juni tot en met vrijdag 24 juni
... would mean:
Wednesday the 22nd of June until and including Friday the 24th of June, where...
@Cerberus It's a weird extra bright looking red. Childish. Would only look good on some people, or as, like, a Christmas sweater. It could actually be more normal but it's difficult to tell from the image.
@Kitḫ That doll is now "retired", apparently (although I never had the dolls, just the paper dolls). I was just young enough to still like these when the original books were released.
@aediaλ I wanted those very badly, but I was much too old to play with dolls by then and much too poor to buy them anyway. Kirsten and Felicity were my particular favorites.
@Cerberus Well, then. The green would probably look nice on you, but it is hard to say for sure. It is a good fourth choice. I wouldn't bother with any of the others.
@Kitḫ We were far too poor for the dolls as well. I think Samantha was my favorite because she had all sorts of Victorian crafts and things that I liked, and Kirsten a close second. For some reason I didn't like Felicity and Molly as much (they were the other two original ones, right?), but I think it was for weird reasons, like Felicity had a pet goat or something I didn't like and I didn't like Molly's glasses or something. Haha.
@Kitḫ Kirsten had cool sweaters in the illustrations and went out and did stuff with her dad I think, because it was necessary. Stuff Samantha wasn't allowed to do because she had to dress nice and all.
@Kitḫ Yeah that would be my problem. I made a lemony beet-y green bean salad that I loved and t'other half was like "ewww too much lemon! too much beet!"
I still can't imagine the red-flannel hash very well, but I'm drooling thinking about proper hash browns. I can't find anywhere around here that makes them like local village diners up north. I'm going to have to make my own.
