Torgo, isn’t this thread of yours really an attempt to take control of the message board away from Cecil Adams? ---

Nothing would please me more than to be in charge of this collection of yammering little suburbanites and moderators tapping out their little messages and opinions about every mind-numbing piece of minutiae under the sun. And of course there are all the countless little soap-operas going on here, like how DufusHead got banned or isn’t it all sad that ShitForBrains and SleepsWithLosers broke up. No, Cecil the sock-dragon and his little buddy Beany are welcome to hold on their little message board as far as I’m concerned. Of course if I really wanted to… ---
