One of the problems with being unemployed is it’s hard enough to keep track of what day it is, let alone the date. ☹ ---

Pretty clever thread, really: puts a lot of the petty hair-pulling shit the Powers That Be have to deal with into perspective, anyway. It’s worth the price of admission just for all the horrified responses: “It’s mods! Acting like posters! For shame!” ---

Between that thread and wondering where they will bounce **monstro’s** thread next I’ve hardly left the computer all day. (Not that that’s really unusual in any way…) ---

Tomorrow, out of the blue, I die. How will she/he find out about it so that they can mete out my property? (Forgive me if this is a dumb question.)

[QUOTE=Xploder] Well, I **was** gonna ask if you were really that stupid until I remembered that this wasn’t the pit. [/QUOTE] Xploder that was not only unnecessary roughness but unnecessary altogether. It’s a bit of harmless fun, you don’t have to be ugly to people, that’s unacceptable. If you have a problem with someone take it somewhere else, anywhere else, but knock this crap off right now. You may consider this a formal Warning; you know better. TubaDiva Really disappointed. ---
