They had to take away the damned "hide thread" option

[short bus president]

tonight, when every friggin weirdo would-be copycatist in the Lounge is emotionally fushizzled over tomorrow and jonesing for any sort of diversion from eee-lection coverage available to them, and unable to restrain their baser urges to clog my beloved Lounge with more-assinine-than-usual low-grade copycats. Lawd bleedin' jibbity! When it rains, people go overboard.

1. Ha... I was thinking about posting an apology for starting the madness

but then thought it would just be more clutter... kinda like this thread... :D :bounce: j/k really!!!

[short bus president]

4. Yes, see - you misunderestimate

my capacity for deluding myself into seeing what I want to see in something. I read your post very clearly as, "it would just be more clutter... {I} kinda like this thread..." so no offense was ever at risk of being taken. It's a nice skill to have, sometimes, you know? But then it can get me into trouble.

6. Wow! That's really impressive... I think I need to learn that skill

Somehow I always manage to do the opposite :)

as an amotivational speaker.

15. Hey - here's a helpful tip

when you're traveling in Mexico, and you don't realize that non-locals might not always be able to handle the ceviche so graciously, you can go into a pharmacy, and speaking only the mangled Spanish I've demonstrated here before, obtain immodium and some codeine to ease the pain. Only phrase you need to know is this: "dios mio! el culo esta en fuego!"

:D
