Aw, innit sweet? Everyone pairing off…except the thread, of course! As long as it doesn’t reproduce by parthenogenesis, we’ll be okay! I just looked at the board - tehre’s thousands of these things everywhere! We must kill everyone of them! It is our sacred task… It is kinda chilly in here, I’ll just go see how DW’s doing…he can wrap his nice wolfly tail around my feet whilst I feed him snausages…and lime jello! ---

You’d be surprised at how hard it is to type with goose grease on your hands. I’m gonna try to smear some of this stuff on the thread’s feet, to see if I can make it slip and fall. Maybe it’ll break its neck. ---

Good _gravy_, Sauron. Be careful. You might smell pretty appetizing to that monster. And I wouldn’t want him to gobble you up. ---

You know, thinks, I’d like to get involved in that thread but I have a feeling it’ll involve the same amount of effort as, if not more than, the “Check-in for Female newbies” . . . in which I had my fair share of posts (including a quadruple post). Should I get involved? Will I regret it? ---
