I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Thrive to spite them

She just keeps going on.

There's no doubt in my mind that she wants to be suspended. She's egging us on. I say we give her what she wants.

ETA: Um...any way to make her go away before the watch and post starts?

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

Thank you, DX. It needed to be done.

I've been trying to not get emotional about this situation, but damnit, I hate that I'm fucking dreading tonight's watch-n-post because of her. Tonight's ep? It's fucking great. One of the best of the season so far, IMO. But I just don't want to go back into the Buffy thread because I know what's going to be dominating it when I get back there. (So, East Coast people? Let's post a LOT tonight, 'kay? I think if we can make the sense-making non-trolly posts outnumber the other kind, it will be a shinier happier thread for all of us.)

t checks watch

It's 8 minutes before the watch-n-post, innit? And I think she's over the line.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

Holli, I think you were entirely civil. You have nothing to apologize for.

Will do my level best during commercials. I'll take a pad and pen to this one so that I can post the insightiest of insights.

If Zoe was four years old she'd have earned herself a time out in the corner so that they other kids can enjoy the party.

I honestly don't understand why she's being accorded more respect than that. Nothing in her behaviour or her attitude warrants it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

She's just going on a kamikaze run. She's probably read the discussion, feels cornered and is going out in a blaze of bratty defiance.

Hello! I must be going.
