Spike ,'Touched'
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.

So, only about 750 posts left in natter - I'd guess a day or two left at most before a new thread will be needed.
I got nothing on names, though, as I think "These cats aren't going to stack themselves" moment has come and gone.
I can't think of any significant 35 lines or phrases either.

Isn't there some Oscar Wilde quote about women who've remained 35 for years?
Natter 35: Halfway to retirement.
Natter 35: If this were a penguin it'd probably be dead.

Natter 35: 51 in Emperor penguin years.
Thirty-five is a very attractive age. London society is full of women of the very highest birth who have, of their own free choice, remained thirty-five for years.

Okay, that's making me laugh.
Natter 35: Penguin: the new monkey or the new dead baby panda? Discuss.
35: A Very Attractive Age
Though any of the suggestions is fine with me.

Love this!
For some reason my brain wants to attach 35 to the Tom Lehrer line, "It is a sobering thought, for example, that when Mozart was my age, he'd been dead for two years." But it's not really a thread-namey kind of line.
