A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

When someone clicks on a link to a vanished thread, it can forward the user to the standard archive thread where an anchor has been placed by the zipped file with the thread ID in it. The forward can automagically generate that anchored link.

Me likey.

If I only had a brain...

Shiny!

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

OK, I get it. It's all about the coat. Yes, I understand. All clear. First it was funny, now I humbly request removing the quote.

Please.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Guess what quote is in the top right hand corner of my screen?

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

Shawn, my suspicion is that another quote will stick there instead -- it's not like there's any code that points to it in specific. It's the randomising that's broken. I still can't work out how to unbreak it, though.

How 'bout replacing it with 2003 *ita appreciation year* 2003

I see what you're saying, though.

I was leaning toward naked Spike but I think Shawn's suggestion is better.

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

Thing is, it used to work properly, didn't it? I can remember sitting hitting reload again and again one time just to read the quotes, and I never noticed the repetition.

It started doing it after ita, I think, added the full stop on request.

It went freaky before that, according to [memfault]'s timeline. I didn't enter the full stop until recently. I also repacked the table, and changed the quote ID.
