Well, you could try the Mean Old Guy version of Grumpy, Ex, and grumble about the damn kids these days with their loud music, and their baggy pants, and their chocolate bunnies and all. Maybe that would work.
I don’t have a chocolate bunny. I gave it to my boyfriend because he gave me something else this weekend.
I spent Easter driving. It sucked. People are assholes after Christ is risen, especially if they drive an SUV. However, boyfriend and I did have a lovely pancake breakfast with his parents. They hid Easter eggs for us, although we found two individual eggs hidden in the living room and then found the other six in the container in the hutch. They got bored.
Horsies! Ponies! I miss horsies. I used to ride every week, but I fell off of one in August and haven’t been able to go back yet (well, I did take one ride in January). Give me a stubborn thoroughbred and that’ll make my day.
Hey, this thread is still here. I’m sorry to reply so late, but it seems to be something of a theme on this thread, so here goes…

As I have been working incredibly long hours recently, I was rather tired when I read this. “Cunjunctioning?” I asked myself. “Huh?” So I traveled over to dictionary.com to see what exactly I need to work on. conjoint: “Of, consisting of, or involving two or more combined or associated entities.” Well, I have been feeling a bit bi-polar recently, but how could Rue know? Does the amazing Rue have powers beyond my comprehension? Online psychotic analysis?
conjunctiva: “The mucous membrane that lines the inner surface of the eyelid and the exposed surface of the eyeball.” Oh, crap! Not only can Rue see into my head, but also has the power to see out my eyes with enough clarity to notice that my mucous membranes need some work. I am beginning to get frightened. Or perhaps I have conjunctivitis (“Inflammation of the conjunctiva, characterized by redness and often accompanied by a discharge”) Or is it a problem in my conjunctival viens (“veins draining the conjunctiva”)? Could there be some sort of blockage? Are they showing? Am I getting vericose veins on my conjunctiva? I better go see a doctor. Thanks, Rue, for helping me out.

The thread was dead as a doornail, but Rue decides to revive it in order to provide some affirmation to jr8, as requested in an entirely different thread. Okay, fine. I have no problem with that.
Then I wandered in here with a toss-off post. Again, fine. It wasn’t really useful or anything, but there you go.
Then, welby and Kn*ckers popped in with all sorts of pertinent advice concerning the methods I might use to improve my posting habits. Duly noted.
The next thing you know, a poster who shall remain nameless posts some drivel referencing yet another entirely different thread while still trying to address certain other posters.
Another poster arrives at this point and tries to drag the previously-dead thread back toward something relevant to the first page of this train-wreck by mentioning horses or something.
And then, and only then, does a poster contibute something worthy of a Rue thread. Well, okay, the previous post was also worthy, and helped him a bit.*
And then, for the love of God, THEN: one of the previously posting time-wasters posts a toss-off blurb referencing one of the previously mentioned entirely different threads.
Did I miss anything?
*Thanks to avabeth and lightingtool for providing fodder for this post.
Yep, this baby’s pretty much right the hell off of the track. It’s a full fledged train wreck at this point. With casualties and everything. And fire trucks. I like fire trucks. I once saw a horse tied to a fire truck. But that’s not why I’m posting.
I’m posting to point out that you obviously looked in the wrong thread when I said I was nice in the thread I know you don’t read, Exgineer my friend. You should have looked here.
