Tracking all the threads is hard when you don’t have quick access to tons of tabs. ☹ Plus, I was afraid all the words would have extra "u"s in them. -D/a ---

> [@Becky2844](#): > > Since we all seem to have taken it personally (“was it something I said…?”) maybe something reflective of that. Maybe it’s from having had The Big Banning Hammer myself, but in my case I asked “what did our IT guys do?” I know I can be irritating, but my level of irritating-ness wouldn’t be likely to cause a straight ban and if I got one I would have expected a letter calling me a bad girl. **The day the world got banned** ---
