So then I says to myself: “Oh look. Somebody else posted to the thread. Maybe they answered my question about the phrase “money’s worth.” I must go look. Wait a minute! If I look in there again I’ll have to post again. I will then reveal the true complusive nature that I’ve been hiding from the board all along.” “Don’t open that thread!” “But I must!” “Don’t post to it then, noone will know!” “Gahh! Must follow instructions of OP!” So, now you know. :: hangs head in embarrassment :: ---

Thanks Dan! The apostrophe felt right, but I wasn’t sure. Besides, I had to post something. Also, I did not reopen the thread! As I finished my last post, Dan’s post appeared (simulpost). What are you staring at?!? Leave my horrible freakish complusion alone! ---

Let’s see Dropzone, congratulations of getting more posts than me. It isn’t that hard to do. I think Libertarian tripled my old current posts when he first arrived in the first 3 weeks he was here. 🙂 Looks like we are still staying near the post/viewed ratio. Let’s see if we can catch back up. There are too many of the stupid people out there that already don’t know how to hit Post reply and submit that we are lagging. And we can call them stupid since they obviously won’t respond back. heheheheh j/k HUGS! Sqrl ---

Well, when I got here it was 197 views and 53 posts, so three out of four people (nearly) have buggered off without even posting an inanity like this. So I am therefore morally superior to all of them. Ha! ---

I haven’t read the thread, but I wonder if anyone has noticed that there will always be 2 views for every post since you view it once to read it, and once when you’re brought back to it afterward posting. I’m an odd ball cause I’ll have 2 posts and 3 views since me “reading view” this time was the same as my “reviewing view” from the first post. ---
