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.

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

Yes. Thank you. (Trying to figure out that word would have bothered me all night.)

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

Finally, someone appreciates my work!

I want baby eating in the thread title.

Or advance does Yoda.

Whatever. But not spaz, please-- it's one thing for Bitches to be reclaiming the word Bitch, but I don't get the same positive sense from the use of spaz. In the thread, one thing; in the title, another.

So I'd like the softer side of Yoda eating babies, instead.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Who said that? ME. Who? ME!"

I love this one.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I favor Huh.

Also, I'm fine with the discussion, and fairly predictably, I oppose Hec's proliferation (mwah to Hec). Don't think we need a thread that will sit unused except for during specific events.

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

How far along are the UnAmericans with this season's Angel? Has it even started yet in Australia and the UK?

UK people watching on Sky1 have just seen Lineage. Well, last Monday.

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

I oppose Hec's proliferation (mwah to Hec).

Mwah! Liese is the mwahfulest.

Of course you're wrong and we need to spread like a cancer!

Am I wrong in thinking that we have more resources since we made the last move and we don't have to be quite so tight on threads?

Because, it seems to me that deathmatching has proven its enduring appeal as an activity. And repurposing the threads doesn't seem as valuable as having threads which focus on-topicality. Its not like we said we were never adding a thread again, and deathmatches don't want to be in Natter.

All is well that ends in pizza.

This may have been addressed...

If we were to have a deathmatch thread, some mechanism should be in place to administrate it, should Elena be unwilling to pledge her eternal soul to keep doing the honors of keeping track...
