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

This is so exciting - it's been a while since we added something to The List!

1. Cilantro
2. Gerunds
3. Muffalettas
4. Hammocks

The status is NOT quo.

OMG I can't believe you've engaged ND in hammock debate. This is one of the longstanding diehard disagreements in our lives together. ANY HAMMOCK IS A GOOD HAMMOCK.

Oh Matt, I was gonna say I have a different stand that is nice because it comes apart, but ah well. I definitely support hammock, be it on a stand or in a tree or on a porch or whatever. Always choose hammock. Unless it's cold out and you're trying to sleep. Then don't. I've learned that lesson. You need something under you to warm up or you will be chilled.

Our wings are not tired

I love you to pieces Pix, but in this case you are wrong.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I was going to ask why the Oxford comma wasn't on the list - but are we all in agreement on that one?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's it, NoiseDesign can forget having my support for Ruler of All Things. You are entitled to your opinion but no one gets to deny anyone else the right to hammock however they wish.

I don't think we are, Suzi.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Don't forget "how you hold your utensils."

One might argue irreconcilable differences, but I say sometimes you just have to agree to disagree.

Pix is totally right and ND is wronger than a thing that is wrong

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Deep dive on the Sondheim.

Nathan Lane was a great Dionysos. (At least he sounded great—I never saw the show live.)

I think if you have room for a hammock, the desire for a hammock, and the resources to get a hammock, you should have a hammock. And now "hammock" has achieved semantic saturation.
