If you’re being serious, and not playing that charachter again, the post count incrementer is as defective as the rest of the forum.

When the forum is nice and empty (2:30-3:30AM, 4:15-5:00AM Central time) do a search on exactly your nick, showing posts, any date. That will give you your real post count.

But, once again, \< d[sup]=[/sup] d[sup]=[/sup] \> it doesn’t really matter, to me \</ o[sup]F[/sup] o[sup]F[/sup] \>.

In hindsight, I think the best way to make Ender regret the post would have been for no one to respond at all. And on top of that, it would have been cool if no one besides him even viewed the thread.

Anyway, since we all blew that one, the only ways I can think of to make that post regrettable would involve doing things that I would be afraid to discuss here…

LOL!!! Well, that’s a new one, **Snugglebear**. I tend to favor Dot from the Animaniacs so much more than any ol’ Simpsons character. Anyway, if I sound like Lisa Simpson, whose the equivalent of Bart and Homer in this thread?

**Enderw24** , I noticed you didn’t have anything to say for yourself after my scolding. [giggle] Are you feeling ashamed of yourself for having started this thread yet?

Actual arachnids, dear imthjckaz, are my problem, not people who have Spider, or a variant thereof, in their nickname.

**celestina** I am not ashamed. I regret nothing. For the world is my oyster. That is to say, it’s a huge irritation. You, being a part of the world, are an irritation upon an irritation. A blister in the sun, if you will. Oh how the world would improve if there was a tidal wave of Calamine lotion that swept across the land and covered everyone in soothing relief. It would solve the world’s ills, I tell you.  
My point is thusly this: never say “sit” to a near deaf dog.

Now, I think everyone can understand that to be logical advice, eh?

And you’re all still wankers. Every last one of you.

I need a little more info before making my comments. How do you split up that 1% between perspiration and apathy?

[innocent eyes]

I’m confoosed, **Enderw24**. If you’re an oyster, and I’m an irritation upon an irritation, then that makes me a pearl, not a wanker. 🙂 And how can I be a blister in the sun? What does the sun have to do with oysters or my pearls of wisdom? [giggle] You really ought to be ashamed for confusing me so. Explain yourself at once.

**KidCharlemagne** , the 1% is divided up on a sliding scale based upon factors including, but not limited to, condensation, radiation, expectation, lubrication, and fermentation. I cannot say more for the rest is protected by trade secret.

**celestina** , I think **anya marie** explained it perfectly. You are all wankers, and I am the putz.

I object to being called a wanker, you putz!!!

I lack the requisite equipment…
