Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Ack - I'm sorry. DXM thanks for fixing the margins and closing the pre tag. The white font works for me on ie 6. Maybe I should just take it out and give a link instead? I don't want un-Americans getting spoiled.

I just deleted it but left a link. It was too close to the real plot.

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

Don't worry about it, Cindy. Your HTML for the white font looked fine to me. It's all fixed now.

Wheee - I think we cross edited, because I took it out, saw my edit, but now it's gone and your edit is there DXM. Thanks. My white was coded right, though...

font color="white" and then /font to close - in carats, but it was pure white and couldn't work in the evil Netscape.

Any netscape users had any trouble with white font elsewhere on the Phoenix?

eta...

DXM - I see your message below. Thank you very much.

Cindy, apparently it was the order in which you used the <pre> and <font> tags. I did some experimenting in the BBABB thread, and it seems that Netscape ignores the <font> tag if it's outside the <pre> tag. If you do the <pre> tag first, it works properly in all browsers.

I hate browser incompatibility.

Thanks for all the fish.

Going through the archives. Back on WX, Bitches 3

amych: There's something worse than being at work on Buffy night. Being at work on Buffy night and trying really hard to resist going off on a blasphemous dildo hunt.

Thanks for all the fish.

I don't know if it's in here yet, but Steph's Dad, being quoted in Bitches 8 on WX.

A dead battery is no reason to marry an asshole.

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

The Kristen and Allyson show, on Natter. (Happy Birthday Kristen!)

Allyson: DUDE. I swear to god we could mate my lunatic fandom with your lunatic fandom, and create a race of runny Jell-O shaped like people. We could feed the world.

It's all protein.

Kristen: Yes, but that would create a whole new species of even more annoying people.

Allyson: Yes, but I don't think Jell-O can type. We can just stuff them with small oranges and mini marshmallows and stick sparklers in them on the Fourth of July. AND, since we're pairing the stoopid people off with each other, there's less of a chance that they'll water down the gene pool by breeding with an otherwise bright person who may just have a head injury, or low self-esteem.

Kristen: You have more faith than I do. It's like Darwinism in reverse.

To paraphrase Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park, "Stupidity will find a way."

Allyson: Man, who keeps forgetting to pull up stakes when they're the last one up the evolutionary ladder?

Kristen is off to dream the dreams of someone who sat on a toilet seat warmed by Eliza's bottom.

Heather Alayne, in Natter:

I discovered that on Oct 12, 2002, the sun rises in exact alignment with my computer's monitor so that it's right in my eyes before I've had enough coffee to deal with it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Amych, in Spike's Bitches:

I discovered last night that my lizard brain sounds exactly like Weebl.

Want boy! mmmmmmmm, boy! boyboyboyboyboy! BOY!

I'm now worried that I will never again get any, because I'll be giggling too hard at my id to take its directives seriously.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Non-spoilery, in Buffy:

Betsy:

You have to use Teamsters to move monsters, but Klingons are allowed to walk on their own?

God, union rules cover everything.

connie neil:

Only if the Klingons are members of SAG.
