Ah, that's okay, Hobbleit.

Break away.

We'll just violate that thread's mandate, too! ^^

Okay. Might someone explain to the poor, ignorant person what the mandate is? Or is this more of a inside-jokey thingy?

No, no...!

It was most certainly not to appease the ego of JQ.
(I doubt anything in the 'Verse can appease something so huge - neither enough disc space on Haken's server(s) nor enough time in the day to type)

I coined the term to mock JQ and his somewhat tyrannical insistance upon 100 posts being the absolute thread limit. Now that it's become too popular, I regret giving it even the tiniest bit of time it took to think of it. Ah, well. *shrugs*

You know... I thought long and hard about this... and maybe FlyVote likes to tromp on other people's feelings because he can.

I'm sure his heart is in the right place, though. ^^

I'm here, I'm here. Feeling particularly shitty today, but trying to get up the energy to go to the pharmacy. I thought I was going to be able to wait until tomorrow, but turns out I'm clean out of the meds I need. Sigh.

Ugliest Couch Party sounds like fun though.

This is totally unacceptable!

I cannot condone someone coming into this thread and not even saying "hi". I don't care if a cat does have your tongue. You bite that cat right back until he lets go.

You're in funny english accent land right? There's gotta be some textbooks or something you can read that'll put you to sleep. I recommend anything on computer architecture. Those books are good for one thing, smushing spiders.

The Handmaid's tale always got me tired. Maybe I could try that.

Thanks Fly. I managed to get to the pharmacy and get my meds, and even splurged on some new hair stuff. Course, then I had the joy of driving behind people who go so gorram slow while I'm sitting there in pain, just trying to get ing home. Sigh.
