...burning baby fish swimming all round your head.

Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'


Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier  

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.

Thanks for all the fish.

The quote that just came up in the header (That's disturbing. You are emotionally scarred and will turn out badly.) is attributed to Dawn, when, in fact, it is Anya referring to Dawn.

Just for accuracy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, Elena. It's been corrected.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Do you need more quotes? Because I can provide the source HTML from my very unfinished PHP experiment in random quote generation

Hec volunteered to be in charge of marshalling quotes. That way he can be sure of avoiding dupes, et al. Send them to him, why don't you?

I am the anti-new-thread girl, but what do people think about a "Help! Need a tape of!" thread? I hate to see these things risk getting lost in Natter.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think a help I need a tape thread would be brilliant.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

And oft used.

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

Are there consistent tape fairies, or do people just volunteer on a contingency basis? I mean-- who's gonna subscribe to the thread?

I think that three tape requests have been answered in the past 5 hours. Those people.

I mean, I would, since I'd want someone to help me if I were in need.

Send away, Misha.
