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

(I should mention that my computer is nowhere near the television, so by "watch-n-post" I meant "post-show reaction posts." But it appears to be moot now anyway, thanks to her shooting herself repeatedly in the foot.)

DX, thanks for taking care of it. I know turning off someone's account can't be fun.

We had problems doing that with mieskie, so I don't know what'll happen next.

IIRC, this was because he had "remember me" checked, right? So she'll have to be logged out by a Stompy before she'll actually be prevented from posting?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I check, but I don't think I can log her out. I did accidently reset her frelling password while I was deactivating the account.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I just suspended her account. We had problems doing that with mieskie, so I don't know what'll happen next.

Different situation. She's out of control. It's for the best.

Nobody

Victor, I think DX meant we had technical problems.

Victor, I think he means physical problems. As in, he was still logged in, so there was no way to terminate quickly.

No, Victor, I meant from a technical point of view. When ita suspended mieskie, he was able to continue to post for awhile.

Ah, I stand corrected.

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

So. Relieved.

I'm getting the pig!

I'm glad that it's over. I only wish it had not gone on for so long.
