Nyah Nyah!
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Weirdest thing, though. When I broke the board, it was because of a missing quote at the end of the URL in a link.
But when I went to edit it, my posting button woundn't work. I even tried it from IE instead of Netscape. No go.
In the end deleting was all I could do.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yeah, that's happened before. You have to do it just right, but it is possible to make a post that is unfixable. It creates a post that disables everything on the page column below the error. My guess as to the problem with trying to fix it is that the edit page displays the damaged post above the posting box, so the same disabling happens to the "post" button of the edit page, and you can't update.

Also, I noticed while hovering my mouse over a particular link while looking at the broken page yesterday, the hover text seemed to indicate that php (or whatever is generating the page code) tries to resolve the screwy link by creating an unresolvable nest of tables.
Not that this helps. I just kind of felt like mentioning it, just in case.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
I was just reading the Lost thread, clicked "next" and got the end of the Bitches thread. Talk about a double-take.

Are you sure you didn't accidently hit Read New?

I wasn't in my Message center. It wigs me out. I just stay on the front page. Also, not subscribed to Lost, though I generally do subscribe, even though I don't use it. So I'm pretty sure I couldn't have been.
Unless I'm insane. Which reading the above convinces me I have a strong case for that.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Read New is always there, not just in the Message Center. It's the leftmost link. Which is kind of hard to accidentally click when Next is the way on the right, so.

Huh. True. Maybe I did, then. I've had kids crawling all over me. A screen-wide mouse-wobble is not unheard of.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Trying to do the tag work on display rather than save is being a pain in the butt. The code in the lab works on save. I'm out.
