> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by thinksnow \* > \*\*Is this the right place? I think I’m lost. \*\* Well, **thinksnow** , it sure seems to be the right thread, but I dunno. Something’s changed. I’m not sure that this next generation of threadkillers has quite what it takes to really do respectable-type battle. Where’s the witty banter? The mini-story lines? The jokes about **struuter** being naked? Alas, this is all just padding, and words with no substance behind them. Some of the veteran threadkillers better get in here, and bring some class to the whole debacle. I weep for the future. ---

Well, since I’m obviously not cool enough to be in **Jester** ’s threadkiller club, I don’t think I want to play this game anymore. 😉 How’s this for going off on a tangent? …is a mobeus post.

Curses. My strategy failed. Hmmmmmm…but the plan was to insult them, which would obviously make them sad enough to never post here again! It was foolproof! Fie, I say! Fie! Well, guess it’s back to plan B. Hey, look over there! It’s a thing! On a thing! \ Heh heh heh. 😃 ---

::in a faux British accent:: Oh this is fun. Do tell. Let’s have a game, wot? It will help us pass the time, and Jester tells us we’re **boring**. I do say, that was unspeakably bold, old chap. How about…a game of guessing questions? I’m thinking of an animal, mineral, or vegetable…Um, an animal. No, wait! How about a game of charades?! Wonderful idea, old chaps, wot? ::staggers about the place, flailing arms and tripping over ottomans:: What a delightful game, oh i’m not s’posed to speak, am I- wot? ---
