I have many friends in Mississippi. None of them would be proud that you’ve chosen to include the name of their State in your user name. You should be more thoughtful.

In this thread, there is much heresy and blasphemy against the name of Cecil, may his wisdom and justice endure forever. Repent, blasphemer, lest you suffer the wrath of the Moderators and Administrators, who are chosen by Cecil (MHWAJEF) as guides and a path for the Teeming Millions! Repent, lest they cast you out to suffer in ignorance eternal!

Just out of curiousity, can I ask where in south MS you live? (I’m from the coast.)

South Mississippi? Then I’ll send Brent and Missy around to visit you. They’ll teach you the value of using proper punctuation. Among other things.

Inability?

INABILITY?

You DARE question the Perfect Master? Had you been lurking so long you no doubt would have run into at least a few of the Perfect Master’s (more than 150) posts.

It is not inability that determines the Perfect Master’s posting. It is worthiness. You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting.

Then you should know how things work around here, including the courtesy bolding of posters’ names, **Mississippiman**.  
So, **Kytheria, Darkhold** etc…how you doing this fine day? It’s a bit rainy in Orlando(ish)…supposed to get up to 80 today.

I don’t have a problem with the staff or the boards just pitting Cecil for his inability to show his face. I’ve been reading these boards for about 5 years and its the best message board on the net. All of you guys give great insight.

A few suggestions:

1. Try using “Please” - it might help. Maybe.

2. Maybe Cecil is shy - ever think of THAT?

3. If you have to “wait” to be able to “afford the membership” here, well, I think you’ve got more important things to worry about.

Snowing like crazy here. Just to think two weeks ago I was telling everyone how weak Nevada was compared to Wyoming. Then it dumped two feet of snow in a day and a half and two more storms on the way…How was I supposed to know it was saving it for all at once?

Methinks someone’s guest membership is about to hit the used-by date.

You have been a lurker since 1999 but didn’t register because you couldn’t afford it? Did you not realize that until last year, it was FREE? Being a lurker for so long I am sure you knew that though.

Well, I’d say just by coming back and explaining yourself, you’ve most likely dodged a possible banning.

Now you have to say something meaningful quick before this thread gets locked. 'cause if we’re just exercising the hamsters, this thread’s a goner.

If you’ve really been a lurker here for five years, you should have known that this thread would go over like a turd in a punchbowl.

I am curious, if “Cecil Adams” in the OP was replaced with “God” would the thread be moved to GD?
