Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I don't feel like this thread has had nearly enough contention in it. How can you pass a resolution without making somebody cry or pound their keyboard?

I want to be pedantic about "Twenty years". (I've been keeping my mouth shut to not be a jerk, but if it will make you feel better...How's that?)

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

I want to be pedantic about "Twenty years".

Numeral instead of spelled out?

Too precise. I feel like the actual time frame is less concrete. So I'd like "twenty-ish" or similar.

...

I said it was pedantic.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I was counting from the first Buffy thread on TT, which was 1997.

I don't actually have, like, Strong Feelings about it. Just, somebody wanted a little contentiousness, and my pedantry runs strong, so I offered it up.

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

Over 20 years?

Once upon a time there was a Watcher
Not the only one or even two
Remember how we typed away the hours
And debate the exegesis true

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Aw, -t, you're making me sniffly.

"Over twenty years" works for me, especially considering we'll probably keep this description for quite a long time!
