I hate to be a party pooper, but can I request that we stop nattering in F2F? I came in to 100 new messages and ALL of them were about olives and/or muffaletta sandwiches. Interesting, yes, amusing, yes, but not about the F2F except in the most tangential way possible. And yes, that's the way we are (and I love us for it, cause I can be that way too), but we have a thread for that.
None of it means a damn thing.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
dear GOD. I see 150 new messages in this thread and think something exciting must've happened, and it's all you people debating what makes a mufaletta a mufaletta??? Good grief.
UGH! meara is me. Thought there was actual Nilly news and waded through. stoopid waste of time.
Maybe I should go suggest a food thread or a waste of time, words and purpose discussion thread.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
For the record -- never had a muffaletta. They sound gross.
Same here. The olive salad is the least of my worries.
I'll have a stuffaletta. That's some schmancy word for pastrami on rye with swiss.

What a cranky butt! Natter happens. This isn't a right hand thread.

sure, it does, but over a hundred messages on a frivolous topic that has _nothing_ to do with the thread is over the top. Particularly since we have a natter thread.

It takes like two minutes to scroll past 150 messages. And there's nothing particularly over the top about 150 messages of discussion on anything around here. That's barely a blip.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
That's why God made sucking and scrolling.

Why is it so out of line to ask that natter be moved to Natter? 150 off-topic posts is a lot for a quasi-administrative thread.

Nobody asked during the actual conversation. Coming in and bitching us out after the fact seems out of line when this thread has always had natter in it. Conferring "quasi-administrative" status on this thread doesn't make it a Natter free zone. Nothing is happening so immediately that it needs urgent attention in here.
