It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

Our wings are not tired.

Hey, I don't think we've wished Cindy happy birthday yet, have we?? She's a Natterer, too, right?

Happy Birthday Cindy! And thanks for all of the great recaps!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Wow, we had a fit about how to use Press and Beep Me.

That was me, wasn't it?

The status is NOT quo.

Vortex, I don't make out with that many BIOBOYS. In the past like, year, I think just scola and ND. And ND's beard was all freakish and scratchy and ew.

This just made me laugh and laugh.

What, Press? It was many many people.

Aw, now Aims is trying to get us to stop talking about something.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

How can there be no tone? I...I don't understand.

Because if they admitted there was tone, they'd have to cop to the nasty self-righteousness of their posts.

Or possibly they were all machines.

Wow, we had a fit about how to use Press and Beep Me.

I think that's actually what led to the Rafmun kerfluffle. Because he was clearly on a crusade on behalf of someone else.

And it was, in fact, a pretty brilliant crusade, now that I think about it. If you say "There is a small group who POSTS TOO MUCH and by dint of posting too much they force the board to go their way, and I think they should stop posting so much!" there are only 2 responses:

(1) Try to defend yourself (if you assume, as I did, that you are among those being singled out as posting too much, blah blah), thereby proving the point; or

(2) Stop posting so much, which achieves the actual desired effect, which was to make the Mean Girls go away.

Douchebag.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I prefer to think of you as "consistent".

Well, that's true. I had a conversation recently about how the only difference for me between a rut and an awesome routine is if I like it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'ma be crazy and say that even machines have tone. Rafmun had douchetone.
