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

Am I thinking a tiny bit too hard?

Always, but it's still a good idea. Some of the stuff is very old, and some of it falls into the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" category. It might be time to take a look at revamping and updating.

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

Could we manually change the quote of the day? Maybe to "death is your art" since it won the first deathmatch. No biggie, just curious.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

No, no, we loves the Woodstock! I was just thinking how fond I was getting of it, and how bereft I would be if we get it to be QotD.

edited, because, just kidding, really. I think it can be manually changed, but I'm in favor of not adding to ita workload.

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

Liese, I need to tell you that you are a snickerdoodle of love.

And that's not natter because I want everybody to take a vote on it.

Seconded!

(Can we throw the Bobita thing on this ballot, too?)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Gee, just when I was needing a new tag, too...

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Wait... Is the motion whether Liese is a snickerdoodle of love, or whether Hec should tell Liese that she's a snickerdoodle of love?

I just checked the code and it's ridiculously easy to change the quote manually, but I ain't going to do it without ita's blessing. I've heard that her death-pinky has transcontinental range.

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

You know, if we start changing it on request, chaos will ensue.

I'm back at work tomorrow, so I'll code the QotD then.

Agitator!

Thirded on the snickerdoodle and the bobita things. Let's enact the will of the people, people.
