And, um, there's a post over in bitchy fic that looks to me like it might be from a poster who had been asked to leave. (My apologies to Poster #1013 if it really is someone different.) Could a stompy check the ISP and everything to see if there's reason to believe that? It's just one post, but I don't want a whole big thing, again.

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

Doesn't look so, LJ.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

LJ, my gut says not, but I'll take a closer look.

Thanks, ita, amy. Sorry to be little Ms. Paranoid.

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

I love them all. I went searching the Chosen shooting script and couldn't decide.

I think we could work off of that list for a while. ijs. Also? I'm drinking wine. Yes, lately, I'm drinking wine more frequently than usually. You wanna make something of it you no good mo...

Hello! I must be going.

Well, I'm going to see Kali Rocha play Cecily onstage. In TRAVESTIES at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts, that is, and her character really is named Cecily. And oh yeah, she has a couple of topless scenes. I've mellowed and thought that it was silly of me to react some of the ways I did, so I took a deep breath and starting reading threads again from where I'd left off. Then I came across this:

Betsy HP "Natter 14: What number are we on?" Jul 29, 2003 1:28:37 pm PDT

Betsy, sweetie, you are a bigot. And if nobody cares about that, this is not a group I want to be a part of any longer.

FTR, here's the e-mail I sent the Admins on 7/28:

Moi?

This is an official warning. Further incidents will lead
to suspension and then banning.

É finita la commedia. Do your jobs.

{seekrit for Admins}

Four years of being a Buffista is a good long run. Just too tired of having to alternately bite my tongue in helpless fury or parse every word I say like a Talmudic scholar. I hope I'm the only one who feels that way and suspect I am.

The great Ernie Kovacs had two favorite sayings that I love: 'Nothing in moderation', and 'It's been real'.

It has.

Vaya con vampiros, Caroma

Actually, now I suspect I'm not the only one who feels that way. Keep up with this tone and expect a silent exodus from the boards with fewer and fewer voices heard. This isn't a threat, it's a warning.

Bye and thanks to the many nice people. Too bad you're losing ground.
