**Shodan** , It is a nuanced thing. We (well, at least the me part of we (you know, the important part)) are complaining that of late the Pit seems to have been overrun by encounter sessions and group therapy. As Giraffe had been keeping this sort of thing in control, we (again, me) are wondering where he is (so there is a “why can’t the other mods do their job in this forum as well?” element).

Also, apparently it is all none of my damn business for some random reason.

See, now that just hurts my feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelings. I like things fluffy and rainbow covered with unicorns and teddy bears because unlike some people I have a fucking heart, goddamn it! I need cyber hugs and herbal tea!

Take that herbal tea and shove it up your ass!  
Because an herbal colonic is SO refreshing. {{{{Binary’s colon}}}}

(Hard to tell what side I’m on, even for me.)

You’re on your left side, dear. Your digestive system works so much better that way. {{{{{ **NCB** ’s Digestive System}}}}  
I’m not on anyone’s side. Although I was just on my daughter’s ass about getting to bed.  
So why can’t the kids know about the Modus in Abstentia? Everyone will immediately misbehave?
