It rhymes with "tides".
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

What about making out with Rio?
(Or should I put that in ASSCAPS!)

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

We don't need Natter to do that.

Ann, that's a ferret.
15th is the last chance for Ides. Making Out for 16.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
In actual Latin once upon a time it would've been ee-dehs, though, right?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Out of sheer curiosity, what was the purpose of "ides" and "nones" and all that? Do the Latin words have any significance?
Once again, I vote in favor of "Ides," since I think that number-specific titles outrank titles that can be used with any old number.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'll be around today to bludgeon anyone who dares suggest something different.
