So I’m busy grossing myself out with this thread, and I notice here on page 5 that the dates for the posts are kind of messed up. After 11/22 it goes to 6/1, and continues to July, September, and october before going back to 11/24. What gives? I don’t think I’ve noticed that ever happening before.
Note the Year.
Um, dude.
[sub]Look at the year.[/sub]
This can be our little secret. 
Whoops. Secret’s out.
Whoops. Secret’s out.
Here’s how that happened:
I submitted the first one.
My browser timed out while I was reading e-mail in another window. By the time I got back to it, I had forgotten what I was doing, so I hit “Back,” and went back to reading e-mail.
Imagine my surprise!
Bah!! Thy feeble excuses are wasted, thou puny poster! The Mighty Straight Dope Message Board doth not accept excuses for double posting! Excuses are for touchy-feely Oprah.com!
Pah!!
Bring us the head of Marilyn Vos Savant as thy punishment, or rue the day thou didst ever decide to read thy insignificant e-mail in another window whilst the Mighty Straight Dope Message Board patiently awaited thy worm-like attention.
[sneer]
Hot diggity! An excuse!
