This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

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!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I think it should all be in blackfont. But I think asking for whitefont for any longer than a day is demanding an awareness that would be difficult to enforce if you're talking about large-scale experimental threads.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Oh, I don't know. I think Dana pointed out that several threads have variations on amount of time to whitefont, and it's not that hard to keep to. I'd hope to see some compromise on this issue. Maybe adapting the movies rule-- something like whitefonting HSQ only. (I'd also request no watch n' post.)

What is even happening?

bon bon, while you're here -- what was your third category. I mentioned unscripted, but I'm thinking now that you said 'non-fiction'. I remember thinking it was a good idea at the time. What kind of shows did you have in mind for it?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Tell me if I'm pulling this out of my ass, but isn't one of the things with HBO/Showtime series and FX post-prime time dramas, that there always seems to be one running? Like once one is wrapping up, another one starts? That kind of ensures there will always be discussion. I mean, provided they aren't all crap.

Our wings are not tired

I'd love a place to talk about Ghost Hunters (Though I think it is on hiatus at the moment). Am I alone in this?

I don't know what show that is, Drew.

It's on SciFi channel. I guess it's a reality show of sorts. It follows a group of actual Ghost Hunters who use all kinds of video and audio gear to try and prove/disprove hauntings.

The third category was called non-fiction, but unscripted would work just as well. TAR/Planet Earth/This American Life/Mythbusters/Dirty Jobs/Frontline was what I was thinking.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

And Survivor maybe?
