Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hooray for Spring Cleaning! And I think this is a good sign that we really will hang on to threads as they are needed/wanted, but not necessarily forever.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Ha ha ha! I think the description should be changed to "we are talky meat" and only those who got the reference could join.

Just kidding.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was skimming the archives to find the last sockpuppet discussion, in response to irritation expressed in Bitches (cf Universe and also March).

It quickly got changed into a deathmatch announcement discussion, and y'all may remember how badly that went.

So I never saw if there was a consensus.

Me? I've never found one funny, and they make me grouchy after a while. Also disturbs my data-cleanliness OCD.

Just a question re: the last discussion, was the biggest argument for Sang Sacre?

(I have no care on eway or another - since I had the baby almost nothing irritates me except work - I'm just curious)

If I only had a brain...

Historically, we've encouraged people to use real names, but that's withered as the Internet got waaaaaay too crowded. I would like to propose that we expect people to use precisely one name; pick a pseud, if you must, but stick to it.

So. Formal proposal: Add to Buffista etiquette the following: "One account per customer. Please don't set up multiple accounts under different names. Anybody showing up as a concept or any other abstract noun will be asked to prove it."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I agree.

And I second. (Knowing full well that it might fuck up Sang Sacre in ways that might make some people angry. That's why we have Lightbulbs.)
