Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

'Hell Bound'


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.

I'm firmly anti-monkey. And I'm voting for: Like Sartre, Only Longer.

Thanks for all the fish.

I'm fairly indifferent to monkey, but I think that at some point a thread, any thread, should be named

firmly anti-monkey

or, really

fairly indifferent to monkey

I'm not helping, am I?

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

I can easily say that if I'm the admin on charge when a new thread (especially Natter) is to be created, I take the word of the first remotely plausible Joe that wanders in. I'm just not tracking thread naming with enough cycles to do anything else.

Yup. That's it exactly. They can be edited, too.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I wasn't dissing the stompies (as I assume they make the title whatever they are told to make it), I was just registering my mild annoyance.

My apologies if I was misread.

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

Hell, I'll admit to sometimes being tempted to name threads

Natter ##: When You Come Up With a Name, Gimme a Shout.

or

Natter ##: TBD, eventually, at some point, maybe. (monkey)

I think one of those should be the next Natter title.

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

Can I just note that the Bureaucracy title should be a SHORT one so it fits in the right-hand column easily? Thanks.

Oh, and something past Natter 100 will have to be "Will You People Never Shut Up?" But not till then.

I'm with Burrell (if you couldn't tell). But it's just a thread title.

I'm partial to (and bias towards):

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

Are we running out of Stompies? Do we need to recruit?
