Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am not clicking on that. I'm already itchy just from thinking about it!
Also, I have a shitload of work to get done today, and really no interest in doing it.

I was eaten alive by bedbugs in a cheap motel-type setup in Dublin once. They do quite nasty things to limbs if you respond badly to their bites. (It was also so cold that we had to turn on the shower to steam up the room. This was mainly because it was summer, with no central heating despite the icy horizontal rain. Ah, Dublin.)

I don't think I've see you post before are you new to b.org or new to natter?

There's an exterminator that advertises on cable in NY that uses a DOG to sniff out the bedbugs, which he then freezes to death.

Gudanov, both. I was once a committed lurker, and recently realised I'd missed the goings-on here. Also that pressing the 'post' button was not going to destroy the universe. Probably.

Because books.

That's what we want you to think.
Kidding, of course. Welcome!
NOT clicking the bedbug links.

I can entirely believe this. *wibble*
Thanks for the welcome!
The full story of my de-lurkage actually involves two postgraduate students (including me) with a love of all things fandom, one too many beers, a sad deconstruction of life without a forum on which to discuss said things of fandom, and fellow grad student's reminder that this place is still buzzing away with intelligent conversation. Also other types of conversation.
Plus, I'm trying to write a paper on research ethics. Distraction is delightful.
