Yeah. You heard me. Keep 'em like this. They have zazz. Panache. A cynical ceviche of our usual humdrum howdydoo’s. OK that made no sense. Anyhow…

Or don’t keep them. But they made my day, that’s for sure.

I agree. I especially like “More Cat Pictures.”

I’m a bit bleary-eyed, so the new names didn’t really register until I opened this thread. Where’s the forum for idiots who miss the blindingly obvious?

Love what you’ve done with the place, however.

There certainly is a curious resonance to telling people “You don’t dare tell me that at Snugly Kittens!”

What I’m wondering is, are the kittens to be used to roll around in, or to throw at each other’s faces?

My first thought was that the SDMB had been hacked. Then I remembered the date…

Does this mean we have to be nice in this forum? I know a few posters who will be upset that they can’t do their usual pissy, namecalling posts.

Me too. I didn’t remember the date, either - just came to ATMB to see what our new snarky overlords wanted of us. :smack:

Hey, you accomplished that without any help from **Graptor** \*! 😃

- Well, he **is** a biologist working in Central America. And any fan of Jurassic Park movies knows what **that** means!

Made the second part of my post irrelevant, too.

How that irrelevant got into my post I’ll never know!

Nitpick: The biologist working in Central America is **Colibri** , who I don’t think has yet participated in this thread.

As someone who remembers, from a message board long ago and far away…

The original Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share thread ( before it was a forum ) didn’t start out that way, someone got snarky about some irrelevant posts and changed a thread title.

And 15 ( or more ) years later…it still lives on.
