Come on, folks! Haven’t you all seen the Warner Bros. cartoon with the lunatic running around through the whole ‘toon going "I know sumpthin’ I won’t tell!" until the very end? Then at the very end, when it looks like our heroes are gonna buy it, he shows up, does his little song and dance and reveals the secret. Come on, I know the cartoon’s not PC anymore, but surely you’ve seen it! If you’ve seen it, then you know what the secret is! ---

Oooh, oooh. Is it a way to get people to guess random things for days on end? Because I’d sure like to know how to do that. What an coincidental post number that was, Diane. (or maybe not…) ---

There is a certain “sub-culture” in which Top and bottom _are_ verbs… 😃 My guess is that they’re about to add all of the forums that members have been clamouring for. Yeah, riiiiight. ---

I know there’s a rumour that this site is going to charge user fees… is that it? OH! So that is it! How soon? How much? Will the hamster that keeps the server going get a pension? Will the mods get time and half? What will the new features be? Will weekday afternoon response go from snailoid to merely turtlesque? Will there be gift shop? Theme rides! Fabulous prizes! Oh the humanity!!! I can hardly wait! My check book is wagging it’s tail at the thought of giving till it hurts and then giving _some more_!! My pockets are turning themselves inside out in anticipation and change is spilling all the floor…change that will going straight to the SDMB! A new day is dawning! The Chicago Reader crypto-communists have seen the light! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Scotticher \* > \*\* > I know who let the dogs out. > \*\* WHO? I MUST KNOW! I’d like to kill them, for making me listen to that damned song over and over until my brain melted. Anyway, Unca’ Donald, er, Beer, I bet you DO know something I don’t know. But I’m guessing it has something to do with Cecil being the one true god. Am I right? Huh? Huh? …oh. ---
