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

Do we have threadsucks of all our WX stuff?

Not everything. We have almost everything in the Attic, but none of the stuff in the active forums. I'l try to rectify some of that this evening.

Okay, there's a problem. I've been trying to get the rest of our stuff on WX, and the threadsuck script isn't working properly. It downloads the first page, then tells me the address for the next page doesn't exist. This is not good.

Allyson - I think according to the rules you can pretty much designate what goes in the thread description. If'm wrong, somebody please correct me.

I say Allyson should write the thread description.

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

Slug: "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel, this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Description: (NAFDA) Discussion of the collective works of Tim Minear. Beagles optional.

Or, the other way around, I don't know. How come I'm in charge? I don't WANT to be in charge. Ima sit down somewhere and eat some cake.

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

How come I'm in charge? I don't WANT to be in charge.

But you're so cute when you do it.

I'm just wondering who the sexiest stompy is that's going to get around to creating the thread with my LAME-O slug and description.

I think you get to pick that too.

Isn't the power heady, intoxicating?

It's a gateway drug to me becoming the benevolent despot. I'm just a machine gun away, you realize?

Go make me a fucking thread, ita, OR ELSE.

Gah, that was ORGASMIC.

Your command is my wish, dear Allyson.
