So when do we start planning?
Planning's underway now, that's the point -- people are asking about picking dates and places so they can put in for vacation time already.
Simon: You're out of your mind. Early: That's between me and my mind.

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.

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

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
The discussion is opening because Deena, who I am certain is not alone in this, has been told by her husband's employers that they need to request vacation time something like eight months before they take it.
It's open? Cool. On my way.
But we are NOT discussing the Halloween F2F there. That's at PF F2F.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Another yay for the "Natter 17 = [mumblesomething]: Could this be mathier, Nilly?"
Good on the national F2F. I was just thinking about that, and the need for advance planning.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Could this be mathier, Nilly?
The Buffy reference is good. But I was kind of leaning toward "Could you Nilly that for me?"

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I was all happy with
Natter 17 = 4^2 - cos(pi): Could this be mathier, Nilly?
or
Natter 17 = 4^2 - cos(pi): Nilly could make this mathier
and then
But I was kind of leaning toward "Could you Nilly that for me?"Hhrrrummpphhh!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
"Could you Nilly that for me?"
I like the phrase, but it doesn't really make sense after the mathy 17 expression. I mean, could you Nilly what for me? The "mathier" line fits better.
Does the t sup tag work? Because I was leaning towards 42-
t edit I guess not.... I was trying to write 4 squared - e to the ip. Oh well....

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

We do already have a thread that refers to that, though - Nillytown.

Does the <sup> tag work?
Hee, apparently not.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hee, apparently not.
Don't suppose there's any chance of it being enabled either in time for Natter 17, or just for the purpose of creating the Natter 17 title?

It might work in titles.
eta: I tested it. We can use superscripts in titles and slugs.
