What an incredible waste of bandwidth… again.
Yer all bastards and should be burned at the stake.
**Arden, Geobabe** … I’m surprised at you.

_Tu, oui._
You gals have been here long enough to remember the last couple of threads like this which were closed. I’m surprised this 'un’s still open…

Chief, I find it funny that there are several other posters in this thread who have been here far longer than me, much less Arden, yet you singled out the two of us to scold. Hmmm…whatever could account for this?
Yer so cute when yer cranky. _smooch!_

I go by post counts for board experience, not registration dates. Plus, I _know_ you gals, and I know you wouldn’t want to screw up the speed of the board. I would have chastised **techchick** , but she only posted a “?”. I’m in a “grumbly” mood today, too.
I’ll not post here again as it’s taking too long already to load this damnable thread.

I’m _sorry_!
I totally agree that this is a waste of bandwidth (yes, yes, including this post itself, I’m aware of the irony) and that was sort of the point of the OP (":rolleyes:"). The verbless/nounless threads seemed to be… well, mundane and pointless stuff that someone had to share. And I was just expressing my feeling of “sheesh” at their existence (the threads, not the posters of them). I know some people understood the point, but I should aybe have made it clearer. Sorry to all, and in particular (of course) CheifScott. I’m on his side, really. (Well, until US and UK have hostilities against one other at least). I implore you, for the sanity of us all, LET THIS THREAD DIE!!!
