Am I?

Jonathan, you're back? We'll have to stop talking about you behind your back.

<whistles innocently>


And, I must say, you look like some kind of Johnny-come-lately with your "me-too" version of the Last Post. We are not amused

This is the Last Thread, not the Last Post.

Haha!

I find this highly immature and stupid. But I don't understand why JH can't entertain himself.

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
 
I dunno. He's not entertaining to anyone else, either.

Oh, I dunno. I think it's rather clever, really. He's taken it up one level. Now instead of wanting the last post, people will be vying to start the last last post thread thread. I can see it now, the whole first five pages being last last post thread threads.

What would be tne next level after that? Trying for the last last last post thread thread forum? That may take a software modification for ubb, but it would be so worth it! Then it should totally be recursive and allow infinite levels of last last last post thread forums. This is reminiscent of Zeno's paradox that shows that motion unexists, or of Lewis Carroll's logical paradox that shows that logic unexists.

I think the logical conclusion of the entire last post hierarchy would be that posting unexists. Then we'd all pop into a black hole and it would be the end of everything, or maybe we would all have acheieved the state of satori or nirvana or enlightenment or something.

It's 1:30 in the morning, I'm awaiting an apocalypse, I'm annoyed that you, Tante, will beat my Post Count before month's end, and I am expecting three e-mails, none of which seem to come. (Not from you, Tantalach... Yours actually came in.)

I am highly immature and stupid. But I've got nothing better to do now. Tante sleeps 0 hours a day.

How can I possibly entertain myse- NO, SHUT UP, FREUD!

Okay, my jokes are getting horrid. I apologise to Hatrack once more.

JH

Are you expecting an e-mail from me?

JH -- Go to sleep. You are increasingly incoherent.

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
 
Steve - no, not particularly, though you're welcome to send me messags at all times.

Tante - who're you to speak? I don't think you sleep at any time of the week except for the Shiur with the Schluffe Rebbe on Shabbat!

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
I'll think about it.....

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
 
Jon, it's different for me. I'm never incoherent. My wit is always sparkling. Unlike some of us who are getting cranky and need a nap.
