Ahh, the Classics.
ROFLMAO, Dave. Yer too much! 
Apparently I’m missing something. Stamp a big “Huh?” on my forehead.
Link? 
Mauv - it’s a reference to the great Freak Freely meltdown.
This is what Dave’s talking about.

Hey! I never said I don’t read Flammy’s threads. Where’d that come from?
Where’s my little subscript pot-shot? I want attention AND I WANT IT NOW!!!
Just FYI, Flammy, in case you’re thinking “Oh Christ they’re flaying me! I am being destroyed on a message board!”
Don’t.
Really.
Just trust me on this one, mm’kay? If nothing else, this isn’t the pit.
Now then. You may want to take notice to the fact that lying on this board is a bit of a no-no. And however diplomatically you want to go about saying you lied don’t change … what doesn’t it change?
Ah yes. You lied. “I will admit that I didn’t quite “accidentally” post it, never mind the impression I may have created with my subsequent “apology” post. Certainly I may have gotten off relatively scot-free if I hadn’t included the coding. I was sort of looking to get away with it; I’ll be honest.”
Be glad you came clean. Admitting it before someone pries it out of you is a good thing (though in this case it might be more like “not as awful as it could have turned out”).
And next time you’re trying to dig yourself out of a hole (how many times have I seen this comment in the past 24 hours?), remember to stop digging first.
[sub]PS. This is a message board, dear, not a professional work zone. If someone’s ignoring you, or was at one point ignoring most of what you say, remember that if nothing else that’s less opportunity for … this kind of conflict.[/sub]
If Green Bean has accepted her apology, why the continued pile-on? Most of us have probably apologized for something on this board at some time. I have, my apology was accepted and that was the end of it.
Flamsterette_X, Green Bean said that she is “generally uninterested in the things you post about”. You shouldn’t take this so personally. Of course not every poster is going to be interested in every single one of your threads. If she happened upon a thread of yours which she was interested enough in to read, you should have taken that as a compliment.
Second chances are good. Chin up.
Come on, Biggirl, don’t you remember where in the linked thread you said:
Don’t play coy with us. Just admit that your quote is a coded message saying that you don’t read Flamsterette_X’s threads. If you deny it, I’ll have to say:
[sub]Biggirl is a hypocrite[/sub]
Thanks, Frannie & Robin! That was a couple months before I joined so I missed it the first time around.
At least now I have something to keep me busy for a little bit while I try to get through the rest of today and tomorrow.
You mean “turgidity.” “Torpidity” is a state of numbness and paralysis. (I realize the latin root comes from a word that means “to be stiff” but that isn’t what they meant, ha-ha.)
so is my pedantic command of the language getting you all, like, aroused and stuff? wink
Oh, lordy. That was a long time ago. Thought I recognized it, though. Heh. Wallet. Heh.
You are absolutely correct and I apologize for posting in the wrong forum.
In most males, it is indistinguishable.
You forget that I know UncleBill.

Nice try, but the Latin torpor means just about the same thing that the English does.
torpor gravis illigat artus
Ovid, Met. I.548.
Starting this thread wasn’t a good idea Flammy. It might be time to email a mod asking them to close it and hope that it sinks rapidly into oblivion.
You guys done yet? :rolleyes:
She apologized. It was accepted. It’s over. Move on.
reprise is right Flammy, it might be a good idea to request this thread closed.
Sure, it’s not in the Pit, but that doesn’t mean that people aren’t piling on here. Don’t be silly, people are capable of being unpleasant in non-Pit threads.
Are YOU? If you’re that concerned over letting it die, why’d you bump it?
And why hasn’t FlamX been back?
Yeah what Hama said.
And Grelby? Care to check the timestamps? The last thing which could be remotely construed to be directed at Flam is Zyada’s sterling advice which was approx 8 hours ago.
Since then the thread has moved onto far more interesting topics such as the turgidity/torpidity of various members.
