Okay, I've added a None of the Above category, for all those people who hate all the titles proposed. (Think "Brewster's Millions".)Vote here.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

but are you talking about reviving Mister Pointy and putting him on shriftweb?

John and I had put together a version of Mister Pointy ages ago, and I just got around to updating it for the reformatted site once I learned about John deleting his site. (Thus the "So I'm a slacker." rebuttals.)

Because John's said he's going to put it onto www.rebeccalizard.net. Should I tell him to stop?

Definitely not! No, no. There can never be too many Mister Pointy incarnations. Having a local one on the site is cool, and having one the world can know about is even better.

I'm not understanding what's going on.

I deleted my post because I was diddling with the code trying to fix stuff, and broke Mister Pointy. (Kendra rolled over in her grave, I swear!) I didn't want Buffistas wandering over and encountering error messages when using Mister Pointy, and the only available link was from Bureaucracy.

I would have been more verbose, but I was flailing around in error-message-land.

However! Mister Pointy is again working. Either I did something right (doubtful), or a masked man in black saved my arse (more likely).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I would like to clearly and unequivocally state that the current monkey movement is a distinct and independent (though no less vital and compelling) effort from the former monkeypants faction whose victory was cruelly tainted by the migration, and whose efforts involved flamethrowers and underwear.

However, in keeping with the ineffable truth that monkeys are inherently funny, I applaud the efforts of the monkey movement.

I'm probably voting for popcorn, though.

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

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

For the record, I did get a valentine today, and I also got one yesterday. And Shawn Choo, Choo, Choosed me, and there was a train on it.

Now, now. Leave the man his penguin dignity.
