You wouldn’t know these mods. They have a messageboard in … in Canada. I met them at summer camp.

But only once.

For 20 minutes.

While burning their dog.

With a 1920s-style death ray.

And they brought back pie.

Hi, Opal.

(How many did I forget?)

FWIW, I’m not much aware of the history with TubaDiva, but when I saw her post in that thread I thought it was quite aggressively assy, especially when I remembered she was a moderator. Sure, it wasn’t exactly vitriolic, but out of the blue in response to a totally innocent question, it seems completely uncalled for. Geez, I wish I had the kind of life where I could be a total dickhead in response to a simple inquiry that I’m being paid to answer.

I made it up. Or, actually, a female friend of mine did this to me whan we were amusing ourselves by arguing some nitpicky point about a movie or book or God or quantum physics or something. She probably got the idea from some movie or TV show herself.

Yes, they were nice, but she didn’t let me touch them. ☹ Some stupid thing about her husband wouldn’t understand … 😕  
If anyone\* knows where she may have got the idea, let me know. She’s a TV and cinema junquie, so she likely was previously inspired.

But not **Maureen**  
😛

Personally, I’ve always been saddened that “Hack her to death with a kitchen knife” didn’t catch on as an SDMB catchphrase.

I bet that if I claimed that **fishbicycle** cared way too much about his post count, he’d correct me, and tell me that he didn’t care about his post count…AND THEREBY PUMP IT ONE HIGHER!!

I’m on to you, **fishbicycle** I’m on to you…
