Many thanks to the [WordItOut](http://worditout.com/) word cloud generator. I like this. Apparently the whole thread can be boiled down into: “Mademoiselle, just move seats now.” ---

Suck it, Ducca! ---

thanx Standing Wave for that cloud work…I forgot how interesting those are…sort of reminds me of my scrabbled brain…clear but unclear. I can show folks in one simple pic what the heck I’ve been reading during my spare moments. I wonder what the cloud would say if say, Great Debates was run through it? Or perhaps just something simple…say, the gun threads, or religious threads…? Or the Pit itself? The possibilities!!! (members whose post count is over one thousand? haha) You peoples are funny.🆒 ---

I’m not moving. At the beginning of the thread I was completely on the side of just saying “No thanks” to moving. However my mind has been changed. Thanks SDMB! I realize now that the best way around this is to lie. “No, no… that seats taken. He’s in the bathroom. Shit himself, you see. It was just seeping all over. Hey, I have a question… have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior?” ---

How many years can you post here before the mods let you get away with baseless accusations and petty insults? ---
