Buffy: I was regrouping. Spike: You were about to be regrouped into separate piles.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer  

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Removing Buffistas or deleting, IIRC.

Yep. Sigh.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Well, after reading her admittedly bizarre posts over there, I'm kind of with Lance. She's a loon, but she's got to burn herself out and get bored eventually. I think she's fairly contained there for a while.

Ever get the feeling she's replying to things we can't see? It's like someone instant messengers her, and she replies on the posting board. Creepy.

Julie was as polite as possible yesterday.

p-o-s-s-i-b-l-e ?

Cindy misspelt "as she could be, and then you should see the bits she cut out".

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think someone mentioned that at least one of the things she quoted and replied to had originally been posted here.

Cindy misspelt "as she could be, and then you should see the bits she cut out".

I was being discreet (not discrete). :) Also, my "as possible" was short-hand for "way frigging more polite than I could have been".

Also? You used elephants. What's not to love? I was going to ask if they were juggling SMGs, but I didn't think it was the time.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Perhaps. I'm more worried about what happens if Phoenix goes down and we need somewhere to go. We can't go straight into WX can we? Doesn't it have to be unlocked first.

The posts and the linked thing really creep me out.

Well bureau is opened on WXing, because we're supposed to be over there talking about that stuff.

Thrive to spite them

Victor---one of the posts in Buffy quotes a line from one of my posts.

She quotes Matts the Bruins fan.

In the "political" thread she's quoting posts from UnAmericans.

Her posts there look pretty much like her posts here would if she were to quote and post something.

I think she's reading along and posting. I know what her post about Culloden happened pretty soon after the last Buffista post she quoted.

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

I'm more worried about what happens if Phoenix goes down and we need somewhere to go.

I'm working on recreating the basic folders/discussions in an area we can more tightly moderate.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Cool. And, I appreciate that ita. I was just saying that even if the burnout begins to occur as victor suggested, if we had to go over there, we'd ignite the fire again.
