Bureaucracy 4: Like Job. No, really, just like Job

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.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Scrappy, I agree.

ETA: Also (and speaking as the person responsible for the name of the last Natter), the naming consensus seems even more bullshit of late.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

We're doing it too late is the problem, I think - by the time we start throwing out ideas the thread is dead and the stompy has to just grab something.

People! Let's get it together.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, but brenda, remember when we've started too early and had issues there, too.

Were there really no retirement-age oriented suggestions?

All is well that ends in pizza.

brillig

Natter 64 will, of course, be "Will you still love me?", right?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Will you still feed me?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

the naming consensus seems even more bullshit of late.

It probably is, but I just did the (extremely complicated) math. 62nd Natter had three supporters, Freud had two, and that was pretty much it.

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

the naming consensus seems even more bullshit of late.

I think the last "formal" statement on the topic wasn't consensus, but whatever the creating stompy preferred.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
