Kathryn has been busy today. I'm sad that she has had to be, but glad and grateful that she has been.

Thanks, Kathryn! [Smile]

Considering the circumstances, I think my new goal is to never be called sweet pea by our illustrious moderator! [Angst]

Well Annie is of course the best result for any action ( [Big Grin] ) but I think I already had her.

Hmmm...

How about really cool nickname? [Wink]

Murphy's Law of Hatracking, Liz.

It states quite explicity:
  1. You can and will miss the most exciting topics because they wait until you surf elsewhere before posting.
  2. All the best threads explode from one post to fifty by the time you get back, ensuring you will not be able to keep up with the discussion.
  3. Any post involving a pun will be posted two seconds before what you were going to post.
-Trevor

Trevor, you are so right!
The threads unravel so quickly sometimes, and I am left with nothing. So sad, really.

I'd call it threadbare, but it would be knitpicking. But you know better than to worry; you just needle Hatrack fix.

PS Ok, I'm going home and eating dinner before this gets any worse. [Razz]

I'm not so sure I'm glad it wasn't deleted. On the one hand, I'm glad I don't just have to be futilely curious, but on the other hand I can't help but feel mortally embarrased that such people might actually think they are on my side. Where's that puking smiley? [Frown]

I am laughing so hard I got a stitch in my side! If I don't stop laughing so hard, i will be meeting St. Peter at the Purly Gates.

(not laughing at you, KarlEd!)

KarlEd, she said she'd delete it after they had a chance to read her comments. So hopefully it will be gone soon.

It seems as though every time I meet other Hatrackers I hear about some of these threads that have been deleted. Maybe have a hidden forum where you could go look at them? I'm mostly curious about things that I've posted that got deleted.

But of course [Smile] I won't leave unless I manage to get myself banned somehow, and I think I'd have to try very hard indeed to accomplish that.

Why would you want it to be deleted? The situation makes me think of the quote, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." The thread is awful and embarassing, but maybe people could learn a thing or two from it.

[Laugh] Sorry. I'm just in a laughy mood and this thread is just full of silly goodness...post after post of it!

edit: Ok, trust me to post that right after Miro's serious and pertinent post.

Maybe. And I suppose the evidence is against me, but I'd like to have hoped that anything important to be learned from this exchange was learned before mommy started letting us cross the street without holding hands.
