Angelus ,'Smile Time'
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.

oh wait, Steph, it wasn't the secret bitch cabal that was running the board, it was the ACTIVIST bitch cabal. And as I reread that thread I am reminded of the fact that you were, according to that poster, a founding member. So you probably already have the decoder ring.It's hard to be secret and activist at the same time. It's the decoder rings that blow the secret, every time. Damnable activist bling.

My activist ring is on my right hand as I type, actually. My secret cabal ring....well, I can't tell you where it is, because it's secret.
Yeah, and this might not be the funniest running joke on earth.
(Mind you, I'm not going to start a big kerfuffle to ban it and deem it demonic and stuff, but imho it's making fun of something not funny and its gotten old.)
I didn't pick up on the "making fun of something not funny" aspect, but since you say it is, well ok. When it comes to board politics I like to stay out of the way. I was initially just trying to say that the wording of the post, minus the subject, was beautiful. The other stuff was mostly a post script.

(Mind you, I'm not going to start a big kerfuffle to ban it and deem it demonic and stuff, but imho it's making fun of something not funny and its gotten old.)Whenever I've been at a board where there's been accusations of an activist bitch cabal (and there are *always* accusations, it's a close corollary to Snacky's law, really); or comparisons to "The Pack" (that happened at the Bronze--yes, they meant the Principal Flutie eating pack); secret cabals (also the Bronze, or maybe the Beta); and the like, the people who were lumped together at such have always joked about it. Joking about it is way better than either stomping off, or crying about it.
I'm amused at the thought of activist bling. It's just so ridiculous. It would be made of plastic and have a red blink light.
Also, Jessica, of course you're loved. I never got a decoder ring either.
I think the next bureau title should be
Do I have to keep on talking till I can’t go on?Cause it's so funny and such a threat that we tend to make good on.
that happened at the Bronze--yes, they meant the Principal Flutie eating pack
I ate Principal Flutie!
Oh, I edited my post -- just for clarity an' stuff
I ate Principal Flutie!
And he tasted great!
Weren't you just arguing a few weeks ago about humor and how we as a board shouldn't legislate what people find funny or unfunny? I mean, wasn't that what that interminable sock puppet conversation was about?
But in this instance, you do want us to stop because you don't find it funny, but I'd argue at least 4 people posting around you do.
Do I have to keep on talking till I can’t go on?
Bwah! On the down side, it's an earworm. (And we're not even halfway through THIS edition of B'craxxy yet.)
And damn you all for putting I'm eating Principal Flutie right now, and it's fucking great! in my head. Because it won't leave.
