No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

I've just sent a long and question-filled email to the Guy Not In Charge But Who Handles All The Practical Details.

And I think not telling y'all the cutoff date is a good idea. Also, it means I won't be up all night threadsucking to make an arbitrary deadline.

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

Also, it means I won't be up all night threadsucking to make an arbitrary deadline.

I'm pretty sure DXM has all the threads archived already and could send you everything except the currently active or unarchived threads. Should we decide to go that way. And I'd like to.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

could send you everything except the currently active or unarchived threads.

Even better, because then there's no chance of the Observer Effect.

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

And yes, 'foamy' doesn't count unless it's in context. Unless you are angling for 'foamy' to be an interjection, in which case shout it all you want ...

Shiny!

Ooh! If DX has all the archived threads that would be FOINE. Thanks for pointing that out. 10 hours (I am not joking) in the office (a real office, not my home one, where I can do ten hours standing on my head) has be-liquided my brain.

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

Yup, I have every single one of them.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

This sounds so. freaking. cool!

(If gloatycakes makes it into the dictionary, I will be a happy, happy girl.)

If I only had a brain...

What a splendid idea. I'll vote for it and opt in. (Because it's all about me, really, isn't it?)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Don't forget people, to get words in the dictionary, it's our published authors we should be lobbying.

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

Unrelatedly, for the record, because I haven't checked in a while, of our 1105 registered users (934 marked active), 222 posted in the last month. 23% posting seems pretty damned solid.

Can't tell you about folks that have registered and lurked, and naturally even less about unregistered lurkers.
