We die horribly and painfully, you go to hell and I spend eternity in the arms of baby Jesus.
Gunn, 'There's No Place Like Plrtz Glrb'
I know it's pissy of me to enter with a complaint, but there it is. I lurk all the time, weekdays, at work. And for some bizarro reason, the above quote is what I get six times out of ten when I check out the quotes at the upper right.
Does it have something to do with my registration or login? Because I'll gladly change both to get rid of that stupid fucking quote.
Can we put the answer to this question in the FAQ, given how often it comes up?
Meredith, that's the first quote in the database, and for some reason the program really likes quote No. 1, so it comes up more often than others.

Nothing to do with you, Meredith -- it's a known issue (with an as-yet-unknown solution) with the randomization feature of the database.
It's a known problem, Meredith. It's the first quote on the database and for some reason the randomizer chooses that one more than any of the others. It'll get fixed at some point, but it's not high on the priority list.

Ahh. So it's not me. Cool.
Many thanks, brenda (and amych and Jon B.). Paranoia's not my style lately, but it was seriously pursuing me, and my back was out, and it had me down on the tile floor in the bathroom, and...
So, um, have the Powers-That-Board considered using a less obnoxious quote as Quote Number One And Most Likely To Be Repeated?
Lots of us
like
that quote...
We've switched it once. It was the "all about the coat" quote for a while.
(By We, of course, I mean ita, after we whined at her a lot.)
I would move that the Number One Quote be changed to something about monkeys.
I think it should be something about the Chosen One.
