Help! I've been stuck on the ceiling since 6. Should I have been outside for this?

It could be worse.

You son of a bitch. My Sunday is ruined now. I had things that I wanted to do today.

Okay, I used the IP address of that virtue filter thing to try to track down the owners and emailed the tech contact to explain my situation. Hopefully they’ll forward it to someone who can rectify this.

I got a reply from some guy at Rackspace telling me that in the future I should sober up before emailing him, so that’s a blind alley.

I tracked down another site on the same server as that filter message.

Along with the flashing colors and voice, I got a “Dear rapturee” popup with a contact form. I explained my predicament and sent it off. Hopefully I’ll get some help.

I love these boards. Brilliant. Thanks for the laugh.

Glad you think it’s funny. :rolleyes:

I’ve been stuck up here since 6:00 PM yesterday and I’m not finding it very humorous, but maybe that’s just me.

I guess my message got through to someone. I think I bruised my tailbone when I suddenly and without warning dropped to the floor.

Fortunately my body cushioned the laptop.

Maybe I’m just paranoid now but I think I’m going to be tying myself to the bed at night for a while.

You’re welcome.

Glad you’re problem was solved. I was going to suggest suicide–they can’t take you in to heaven if you kill yourself.

Ditto. And, based on that, davidm is lucky this got fixed so quickly. Maybe humans can handle pot, but not angels.

Kinky!

This has nothing to do with the Rapture. You’re just afflicted with the same condition that Uncle Albert had in the movie [Mary Poppins.
Just keep thinking downer thoughts.

Or maybe you’ve got the same thing Pyecroft Had.

Good thing you weren’t in the chicken coop when all this happened. The chicken wire ceiling wouldn’t have stopped your ascent, and you would have rested in pieces.

You had to strain for that one, didn’t you?

[davidm]

I just noticed that this was in Threadspotting.

Glad to see that everyone finds my very uncomfortable experience so amusing. :rolleyes:

@davidm

Oh, I tried that an hour ago. The porn sites won’t load.There appears to be some kind of filter in place for my location (or at least the location I’m supposed to be at by now).

In case this happens again in the future: ( . Y . )

You mean god can move you into heaven, but is stopped by your ceiling. Not very powerful is she. Reminds what a friend told me many years ago (at least 50). He was talking to a nun who told him that she wore a gown when she showered so that god couldn’t see her naked. So god can see all the way from heaven to earth, see through walls and ceilings, but is blocked by a thin robe?

By the way, do nuns really wear a thin robe while showering? Do they ever change robes? Do they learn how to change robes without ever being naked? The mind boggles.

Been there. Done that (6 years). Sorry: no hell no. Bathing (and other habits) quite mainstream ordinary, except the soap is more likely to be whatever brand was on sale that week.

It sounds like the lady in question had some personal hangups of her own.
