Getting set for the 01 Apr tomfoolery....
« on: March 31, 2015, 02:46:05 AM »
<drums fingers on desk>

What this year....?

Is the page loading delay tonite 'cause they're diddling with the site?

<scratches chin>

Hope they're not going to pull the pink stuff again this year....

Or mess with the avatars again...

Well, they're a creative bunch, they'll come up with something.

<waiting>

<waiting>

<waiting>

Maybe they won't do anything, and that'll be the joke...

There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Something will happen, it always does.  It is usually amusing so I actually look forward to it to a small degree.
Plus the fact that they never mess with my avatar or profile allows me to fully enjoy the pain and suffering of those they do jack with.   >:D

Not too worried about it.  I'm a low key plain vanilla kind of poster.  I don't believe the mods enjoy messing with that type all that much.  No fun in it, perhaps.

I'm looking forward to how the mods fool with fistful this year.  It's always amusing.  And it gives him some style he otherwise wouldn't have.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Soooo, what happens if all the moderators get demoted?  Divide-by-0bama, the world ends?  We continue on as an anarcho-syndicalist commune.  Ginnungagap?
