I mean, I like Opal as much as anyone, but we’re taking up valuable server capacity with this ancient “Hi,Opal” as the third line in every list. I say she should be ousted, or at least let’s rotate the members. If nominated, I would gladly serve for the first month. For instance a list could look something like this, and break the monotony…:
What are the words that DON’T end in gry?
Is it true that Esprix is having a secret affair with JDT?
Screw off, ageless6! We’re boycotting the board until we get Opal back, and we’re not posting in any of your threads, either. Hurry up and die, you old coot.
You could put anything you like in 3., as long as my name is mentioned. Wouldn’t that be more entertaining?
Every once and awhile it’s nice to say hi to her husband UnDeadDude as well. They’re both quite nice people, and I imagine that he gets sick of nobody saying hi to him.
A million years ago, Opal mentioned she didn’t think lists with only two items were real lists, so everyone started adding “Hi Opal” as their third item. So now it is a real list. Ya dig?
Amen, ageless6. The “hi Opal” thing came. And then mercifully it went away. And for some reason now it’s back. I can’t speak for Opal, but I’m sure she finds it as tiresome as the rest of us do.
Are you gay? Can we start an irritating flirtation, complete with lovey-dovey messages in our sigs? I mean THE BANDWIDTH IS THERE TO BE USED!! If we don’t use it they’ll take it away from us.
If not gay, disregard this message, except first sentence.
The ‘Hi, Opal’ is overused, because people use it inappropriately.
The point of it is, a list with two items is no list. ‘Hi Opal’ is the third item, to justify listing. If you have 3 or more items, ‘Hi Opal’ does not belong on your list.
Esprix:
Oh, must you be so solemn? You know the JDT thing was a little jokey-poo. I know you have better “taste” than that.
Redboss:
Maybe I’m gay and maybe I’m not. (Okay, I’m not. Tried it, but while it didn’t disgust me, it didn’t thrill me either). Still, if you want to send me lovey-dovey messages… no one else does. We’ll work out a code later.

I wonder if Opal is tired of it. I’ve never seen her comment one way or the other. I wish she’d post here. It’s not that I’m against it, but for me it’s like seeing a commercial I used to like for the 1,000th time. The thrill is gone.
