Anyone else want to hang out with me here while the drama queens finish exhausting themselves? Jesus, all this Chicken Little “it’s the end of the SDMB!” bullshit is getting very seriously on my nerves.
Just made a lovely pot of Earl Grey – would you like a cup?

So…what’s up with saying “bullshit” in one of the family forums? You trying to reuin it for the rest of us? 
'snew?
I’ll have a cup, even though it’s Ash Wednesday and I’m supposed to be fasting.
Can I have one of those donuts?
Eggs Benedict, anyone?
Bloody Marys?
To quote the old guy in Moonstruck: somebody tell a joke.
How do you shoot a blue elephant?
With a blue elephant gun.
How do you shoot a red elephant?
Hold its nose until it turns blue, then shoot it with a blue elephant gun.
How do you shoot a yellow elephant?
Piss it off until it turns red, then hold its nose until it turns blue, then shoot it with a blue elephant gun.
I’ll be here all week. Try the veal.

Well, okay, maybe no jokes then.
Those doughnuts look outstanding, though.
I’d like a cup. Milk and sugar, please. I have some graham crackers…sorry, no cookies.

AARRRRGHH! We’re dooooomed!! DOOOOOOOMED, I say!!!
Oops, sorry; wrong thread.

I’ll join in. I have talked before about doom and gloom, when we went pay-to-post, and it still seems to me that did reduce the quality of the boards, but what’s happening now really doesn’t seem like a big deal. Ah well.
Hey, I make some absolutely great cardomon tea (indian chai style); anybody want to try some?
I’ll have donuts and tea, provided that the donuts are totilla chips and the tea is salsa.
<whine>
I’m too new here and I don’t want to know what any of this is about yet. I just escaped the board war to end (or renew) all wars and imminent doom and destruction and the world most certainly coming to an end if a mod moved a post or any two people didn’t like each other and Rube Goldberg inspired governance models and what appears to be shaping up as a decade-long battle about what does or doesn’t constitute an insult. I plan to go on being blissfully ignorant. </whine>
A friend brought me bagels from New York last night that I’ll be happy to share.
You can’t have tea? I thought the Catholic rules for fasting were a lot less strict than the Jewish rules.
Count me in.
Doesn’t this happen about once every 2 or 3 years? Something changes, everyone screams doom & gloom & the board is going to hell and we must find a new board and people are leaving in droves and blah blah blah.
Typically, aside from the posts stating all of the above, I never notice much difference at all.
Someone hand me a donut, plz.
I have to admit to sleeping through the presentation… why are my knickers supposed to be in a twist?
I’m actually not wearing any knickers, so this could get painful
I haven’t really been paying attention to the drama, I just now noticed that there was one so I’ll hang out here.
This is one of the good things about giving up Catholicism for Lent. You can eat pancakes on Fat Tuesday and then eat the leftover pancakes on Wednesday.
I don’t get the big deal, so we can’t insult other posters now? I think it was overdone anyway. Sure, some of them were creative but most of the time it was the same old “You MF* F******* F***! Eat a ****!” Seen one, seen them all.
Greetings fellow chillmeisters, I brought coffee,
…and a treadmill mockup I’ve been working on
You can still drink tea while your knickers are all bunched up, you know. I’ve been sipping pots of it with my tighty-whiteys scrunched up beyond any hope of unravelling.
Just extra-strong coffee for me this morning. I’ve got a lot of very dull work to do.
I wish I’d thought of that when I was a kid… Birthdays falling in lent could be a pain!
I thought this was going to be about the saudi lingerie shops… getting saudi knickers in a twist
(sfw)
As a serial lurker, I’ve seen a lot of doom-saying over the years… remember the fuss about the ads?
Now, who wants some birthday cake?
