When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Thrive to spite them

I like that. Besides we don't get snow in FL either.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Roman numerals can be lower case! Has no-one here ever read a book?

Vaguely insulted but still t hearting Angus.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

Actually it's just occured to me. Not only can Roman numerals be in lower case, but because it's a title, both natters have capital Ns and the V, be it numeral or inital, should be capital. So it doesn't matter. And I'm not sure I put that as well as I might have done.

Don't know if this is the place for it, but I got a spam in my profile addy with the subject line "Stuck in Buffy". Might have been a Hotmail address, but I reported it as Spam and dumped the thing. Deuced clever, these spammers. They should be shot.

Edit: at least in the kneecaps, a la Book.

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

Nah, Connie, spammers should be handed over to Angelus, along with a chain saw and an extra five gallon can of gasoline.

Our wings are not tired.

I have no new suggestions for the Secret Santa/Goodbye 2002 thread title, but I suggest for the slug:

Every Christmas we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance and create a good riddance thread.

I get huge quantities of spam at my domain email address. I forward anything without a perfect address to a bad hotmail address so I don't have to deal with it. Last week I changed the address to a good one to see if I was still getting tons of the stuff and I had over 600 messages in one day. I can tell you all about getting a larger penis and lower mortgage rate.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Every Christmas we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance and create a good riddance thread.

I love this a LOT.

And I think we should call the thread Goodbye & Good Riddance 2002: A Very Buffista Christmas Thread

Roguish Laird

Those are both fine, except again the Secret Santa thing isn't mentioned...if we're having a combined thread, it's fairly important that both elements of it are emphasised in the title and slug.

(Also, I have absolutely no opinion on this, but do we want "Christmas" rather than the less sectarian "Holiday"?)

I only used Christmas in the slug for the quotage, maybe...

Every Christmas we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance and create a good riddance thread. Secret Santa thanks here!
