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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh, I like Rayne's suggestion.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Nope. "Still flying". From Serenity:

MAL
I had a good day.

SIMON
You had the law on you, criminals and
savages... half the people on the
ship have been shot or wounded
including yourself, and you're
harboring known fugitives. 

Mal looks out at the black sky. 

MAL
We're still flying. 

SIMON
That's not much. 

Mal answers, almost to himself... 

MAL
It's enough.

Yes. What amych said. I meant the quote from "Serenity" when I suggested it.

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

You know, they keep using that word. I don't think it means what they think it means.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Cool. Can we invite them to suck our collective dicks now?


DXMachina - Jun 11, 2003 9:27:49 am PDT #2442 of 10005
You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Trust Dana to get to the root of the matter.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

MAL
We're still flying.

I stand corrected. Thanks.

Also? Thank you, Dana.

(really really going now)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Actually, Robert, that would be a good title for Natter 13. And we'll probably need a new title in a couple of days.
