Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I really think this needs to be it's own proposal, all by itself. I really dislike the idea of attatching a rider to something around here.

I agree. Let's keep each proposal as simple as possible.

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

I really thi9nk this needs to be it's own proposal, all by itself. I really dislike the idea of attatching a rider to something around here.

This is a separate issue, and thread creation requires a separate proposal, discussion and vote.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

We're already editing it, Sean.

If Jim were here (and should he show up) I'd be asking him to do it.

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

Editing goes in Lightbulbs, not here.

Adding a whole thread creation is NOT the same as changing the wording.

I'm getting really sick of your tone in this issue, Trudy, you've been nothing but nasty since you joined this discussion, and it's really getting to me.

I'm getting really sick of people cheerfully chucking out policies that have existed and have precedence or have been voted in by a majority and declaring hurtful statements "culture" in the name of making remaining unspoiled IMPOSSIBLE on this board.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Trudy, what did Sean just say about your tone? People are working hard to have a civil disagreement, and your tone is not helping us all stay civil.

You're annoyed? I'm annoyed. Let's both go swallow our annoyance and deal with things in a polite fashion. In Light Bulb.
