A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

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.

Up with the sun

The Minearverse 1: YExpirationDateMV

I'd bullshit consense around this one, too.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think we can bullshit consense around naming the thread The Minearverse. As for the thread title, we used to use Mr Poll for these, right? Why not have a poll?

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

Poll or a deathmatch or just let Allyson pick. I'm fine with any of these. Tim has inspired a number of good thread titles. Many are worthy of the scythemaster.

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

I'm in no major rush, I'm just happy we got the thread and it shall be built. I'll Mr. Poll the thread titles, and I think Burrell's right on "Minearverse."

Unless anyone has objections, I'll have MisterPoll up in a bit. Work is a wee on the slow side, today.

I Think That's Your Heart He's Standing On is my fave, despite the preposition ending the sentence.

"There will be the occassionally happy, so that it can be crushed under the boot of the writer." -Tim Minear

Can we work that into the slug?
