I'm not very complex.
You just say that to lull us into a false sense of security.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Okay, I guess I missed something. Why are we waiting two months to create a thread if the vote comes in with a "yes" quorum majority?
I must have skipped that part in all the volumes of posts...

Thanks for all the fish.
I believe it was to discourage natter in the thread since 'Wonderfalls' wouldn't start until September or later.

Daniel, see discussion around Allyson "Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!" May 23, 2003 4:33:12 pm EDT (it's pretty much what Elena said).

Firefly 3: We're still flying. Not much, but enough.?
I'd be with this; one can never have too much Mal'n'Simon near-quotage.

I tried to think of a way to compact that whole exchange into a thread title, but ultimately I think it works best as just "Still flying". It's the key phrase in the dialogue, and it does double duty as a reference to the show's failure to be completely dead yet.

I was kinda wondering if adding the second phrase made it less jinxy. Because the 'still flying' does feel jinxy to me, and if it's 'not much, but enough' then *either* the UKers seeing it, or the movie, or just the thread, might be it-- and I'm completely failing to make sense here, aren't I? You may be right. I won't oppose a simple 'still flying'.
Edit: but if we're going with Python refs., may I suggest "Firefly 3: It's pining for the fjords"?
