Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Bad news: I think bob bob might be a baby. Better news: he's going out of town for four days, so it's Not My Problem!

AHAHAHAHAHAHA.

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

he was able to grow a mohawk that is 3 feet, 8.6 inches tall

Hi Nilly, thanks for the card!

Two days later, Monday the 17th, will be a double Buffista event: both Lee's birthday as well as the 10th anniversary to the foundation of this very lovely Phoenix Board (*ten* years! Ten *years*! Can you believe this?).

And it's the 17th, the best prime number.

TEN YEARS.

Astonishing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How does he go through doors?

I was wondering that. And does he ride the subway?

Thrive to spite them

Ten Years! That's just for this board!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It's probably down most of the time. I did send it on to the SO, though, since he appreciates a good mohawk.

Also, seriously, ten years? I don't know about all y'all, but I must have started posting here when I was a mere infant.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Ten years? Wow. I know I haven't been here the whole time, but it feels like I have. I can't even remember when I joined.

Typo, I hate dreams like that. They leave a bad taste in my brain all day.

The cat taught the kid to talk! That's wonderful! ....is there a kid who can teach my cat NOT to talk so dang much? He's driving me nuts.

When did we pass the tipping point from most of our history being here vs WX/TT? It's not possible that we've been HERE for ten years when I still think of this as our new board.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ten years! I am old. I was young when I started here!

The cat story is amazing.

I know I have asked before, but does anyone have podcast recs to listen to (without headphones) at work. I have my own office, but they can't have too many swear words. I listed to This American Life, Pop Culture Happy Hour, Riki Lindhome's Making it on the Nerdist, and Fresh Air with Terri Gross. I also can't stand Diane Rehm's voice.

Riki's podcast is starting to have too many swear words!
