I know I'm a bad poet, but I'm a good man. All I ask is that... is that you try to see me—

Bureaucracy 3: Oh, so now you want to be part of the SOLUTION?  

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

What is even happening?

It seemed like Four and Twenty Natters: WHO ARE YOU BAKING FOR (differently interrogobanged) had the most support, but I'm too lazy to count.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It seemed like Four and Twenty Natters: WHO ARE YOU BAKING FOR (differently interrogobanged) had the most support, but I'm too lazy to count.

That's my take also, including the laziness.

Hey. New board.

Though I remember it as 3.14159, cause it's part of our Nerd Cheer.

t natter

"e to the x! e to the y! e to the x d y! cosine, secant, tangent, sine, 3.14159!"

That's all I remember. There's more, though. It ended with "We may not be swimming fast, but swimming sure as hell beats math!"

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

"e to the x! e to the y! e to the x d y! cosine, secant, tangent, sine, 3.14159!"

"e to the x, dy dx, e to the x dx! secant, tangent, cosine, sine, 3.14159! square root, cube root, BTU, compass, slide rule, go Rice U!"

Not javachik

I vote "Four and twenty natterers baked in a pie" or "Four and Twenty Natterers: When Come Back, Bring Pie!" Unless I missed a hunk of discussion and I don't think I did, Aimee's declaration of a winner seems to be her opinion, not the consensus.

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

Well, her post was the first response to the suggestion. But it might be Imperial decree.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

24 hours of Natter to go. I want to be sedated.
