Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
No cutesy!! I don't know if I can work under those conditions.
Let us email. Also possibly with Jesse, so as to create a Committee of Being All Up In Everybody's Business.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I LOVE this committee!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Wait. The Rules should be WAY less prominent than the Etiquette. People need to not be assholes every day, but hardly anyone has to put forth a proposal.
Okay, so maybe Etiquette goes on top of Rules. I do think they do go together in a how-to-behave kind of way. Plus, it'd be nice to have them in an easy to find place.
Etiquette doesn't seem overly long to me, but maybe that's because it is considerably shorter than it was when I first showed up around here.

you know what - half of what is on the etiquette page is rules, so we will probably re-vamp the whole thing.
I also think we are going to have some disagreement about what are rules.
also also, it hurst my head looking back to see past discussions on this, I am reading through the ZOE stuff. good lord.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I sort of enjoy the old Z--- stuff. Anyway, I like to name-search myself in sucked threads and marvel at my own wittiness. Perfect ego-boo for when I am feeling shitty.

Agreeance with this. (Who "coined" that word? Was it, like, Linkin Park or somebody?) Anyway, yes, there will be smooshing involved in our new, multi-headed All Up In Everybody's Business mega-document.

Wow. Where should we send the advil, msbelle?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Please, no mega documents. I can't be the only one whose eyes glaze over at doc lengths before they even get started reading, can I?

I can only speak for myself, but my goal will be short and as clear as possible wrt to the documents.

Now see, I was going to do this whole complex of mutually-linked documents, and with Flash and Shockwave and -- okay, not.
Point taken on the brevity-needs. (Although I don't want to lose linky citations, because they are nice ot short-circuit an argument along the lines of "What doofus decided that?") The All Up In Everybody's Business Committee will mark down "Hemingwayesque language" in its goals statement.
