To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

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

Okay, it worked when I made my first post. What did you do to it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I broke it, apparently by trying to log in. Sorry!

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

Jesse! This is exactly why we don't give you nice things...

Ha! Done.

I just got it for a year, even though 10 years would have got us a discount.

Did it say that anything had to be done on the side of the current registrar? Like to give permission?

It totally didn't. It just said it's as of October, so I guess if no one renews it, it comes back on the market, and then comes to us?

Ah. Went back, and they say:

The transfer process for your domain, buffistas.org, is NOT complete.

Preparing to email admin contact

We are preparing to send an email to jengod@YAHOO.COM (the administrative contact for buffistas.org), in order to obtain authorization to switch your domain to DomainDiscover.

So, that should be that.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Oh, too bad. Jengod gave us her password, etc. We could've changed the admin contact to you if we'd known to do it ahead of time....

I doubt it's a big deal, since Jen has a month to do it.

And if it is a big deal, I apologise to her quite sincerely.

That damned Jesse.

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 told you to fire her. No one listens to me.
