Has any thought been given to closing the Good Riddance thread and replacing it with an Election thread? There's going to be a lot of election talk this year and I don't know if it should be in Natter or if it deserves its own thread. I should point out that don't care either way.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think all the Secret Santa gifts have been received, so the thread still has a purpose.
The last riddance thread stayed open until February the second.

Agreed. I should have said that I didn't mean close the 2003 thread right now, but when it is closed...

We don't have to trade off on threads anymore, in theory, now that we're on a dedicated box.
However, it doesn't make me any less anti-proliferation at heart.

Okie dokie. Like I said, doesn't matter to me. I'll just skip most of the election banter in natter.

Ann, that's a ferret.
We're getting near the end of the Music thread. For Music 2, I'd like to suggest either Put Another Nickel In or Put Another Nickel in (the Nickelodeon). In honor of this old Teresa Brewer song.

We've said no Politics thread before -- ergo, I think, no election thread.

Back when we were deciding on the title for Music 1, there was support for "Give me something to sing about".

I did a search this morning for Buffy music quotes. These are the funny ones. I am not in favor of anything just yet - just reporting my findings.
buffy: the sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays
giles: I'm down with the new music. And I have the albums to prove it.
spike: with the rising music, and the rising ... music
beerbad!buffy: Want more singing. Want more beer.
oz: It's not the music that's hard, it's the marching.
beerbad!buffy: Bright colours. Music. Tiny little people.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have to throw in my vote with this one.
