Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Right. That's what I get for being confused about where I'm posting. Still getting to grips with Read New, etc.

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

No worries, Am-Chau. I've done it, too, and got stomped.

edit: It's really a shame we can't actually put some kind of warning in the posting box, itself, for no natter threads. You can do it in Access forms.

That would be a help. If the posting box said 'No Natter Here', it would be much easier to avoid things like that. Which are very, very embarassing.

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

Out of curiosity, since it was my post they were replying to, what did you guys say?

As I recall, (and I'll move this to Bitches if BBaBB is Natter-free) Billytea quoted your last line "Jesus we have a lot of shit" and added, "It's a little known fact that this appeared in the first draft of the Book of Common Prayer, but was edited out before they went to press," to which I replied "Billytea, I must stop drinking before I read your posts. In fact, I think your tag should have a health warning in." Roughly- no swearing to accuracy here.

Thanks for all the fish.

Okay, this has happened twice. I was in natter, typed a message, hit post and I got a screen that had the header, but nothing else. No posts. No buttons. Nothing. Went backwards and forward - nothing. Then someone else posted and I was able to read things.

Now the same thing is happening in Buffy. I'm not sure exactly what is going on.

The first time I cleaned up some html in my post and things came out fine. This time, I haven't gotten to see the message that, I presume, is messing me up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's the current registration count? Nearly 400, right?

Just wondering.

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

391 users, Jesse.

Thanks. We'll need to throw a little party for Mr./Ms. 400.

That's not counting Admin, right?

edit: 'Cause I see 393, counting the Admin.
