Good morning, sunshine! My Dutch ploy didn’t work, damnit. Oh, well, back to the drawing board. I do like the word draadmoordenaar though. That’s a pretty kick ass word. ---

Listen, y’all, I’ve been thinking (no wisecracks, okay). I’ve been thinking about why the mods haven’t closed this thread yet. I’ve come to the conclusion they’re monitoring who posts to this thread and taking names. _ **There will be repercussions** _. So my best advice to all of you is _DO NOT POST HERE AGAIN_.\* I’m just sayin’ is all. - And you don’t have to come here and thank me for warning you to stay away. ---

I would just like to come forward, since no one else has mentioned it, to say that of course my ghost story up above came from an auto-generator.

Once again the night crew checks in. Look everyone. This is just silly. There’s no point to this, and no one is going to get a custom title Thread Killer or anything. The joke has gotten stale. Let’s just all back away now. It can be done! Just **verbally** promise to not post in this thread again. ---
