Crap. I'm having another one of those "Maybe I've been turned into a ghost" things. I knew I shouldn't have used the transporter so soon after they reversed the polarity on the deflector dish on the same day I ate mexican for lunch.
I miss ST:TNG. And Dr. Who.

I miss Squick too. He was a fellow of infinite jest, wasn't he? Of most excellent fancy, I'd even go so far to say.
Ah, Squick, where are your gibes now? Not to mention your gambols and your songs? That's what I'd like to know.

Option 1: I really died. I knew I was playing with the odds expecting a illogical piece of technology to deal with three chili cheese burritos. Plus, dear lord, I think I had a package of non-dairy coffee creamer on me. No one knows how that stuff works. I knew I shouldn't have worn my red shirt today.
Option 2: I've been phase shifted. I'm not entirely sure what that means, so I imagine I'm stuck this way until I find a countervailing source of pseudo-scientific sounding gibberish, like tachyons or some sort of <something> <something> array.
Option 3: These bastards are playing "Let's make Squicky think he's either dead or some other non-corporeal being" again. Oooh, I'm going to give them such a kicking if they are. The last time, they taped me shouting and making a huge fuss (including declaring my eternal love for Lt. Warf) at my "memorial service". They still show that tape sometiems during Saturday recreation periods.
Solution: The female crewmembers shower-room. It's not just for holo-deck anymore.
Oh, and if at all possible, kill Wesley.

As a sort of memorial, here's a classic MrSquicky post back from the days when he was still posting on hatrack, oh so long ago:

It's this sort of classic MrSquicky wit that we all miss. Note the sophistication with which he used to right out *waves* instead of using the smiley. You just don't see that sort of thing anymore, now that he's been gone.

Pfft! But nobody misses Bokonon, that's the difference. With that kind of self-indulgent prattle we're all secretly kind of glad he hasn't been posting, you know?

Speak for yourself. I miss Bok every day of my life. If only more of us had appreciated him while he was here, perhaps he wouldn't have left at all. Thinking of the endless enjoyment I could have had from all those threads that will never exist leaves me breathless.

It's so sweet of y'all to have a thread about where I've been. Why are you talking about all these other people, though?

Is this a thread about people we miss, or people who've vanished and about whom we still wonder?

Enigmatic, I think that's a little harsh. I mean, yeah, Bokonon is prone to ramble on a bit much, but compared to certain newbies lately, is there any question that Bokonon resides on a higher rung of Hatrack than most.
To explain more directly, here is one of those problematic newbie posts:
quote:Originally posted by Raia: Btw, eros gave up Hatrack for Lent. That's why HE'S not here.
Ah. Sooo ... out of general curiousity about Lent and out of curiosity as to when he will be back, when does Lent end?

quote:Originally posted by MrSquicky: I probaly shoudln't, but I've got to admit, I'm mordibly curious as to why you would post a thread like this Ret. You've been here for like two weeks. You don't know any of these people. I know you have, for some reason, an attraction to starting threads that garner a lot of responses, but I feel like there's gotta be more to it than this.
There really is nothing to it. I thought it would be fun for everyone to discuss and keep tally of people who dissapear from Hatrack. I've been here for several months actually, but in Hatrack time, you are right. What is the conversion between Hatrack and normal time?
So yes, I thought it would be an effective and fun way to keep tally of people who go missing. Nothing more.

Blacwolve:I'm here, I'm here! Just not, you know, much.
Ni!
I didn't actually read this thread, except for Ret's list, before I posted. I'm sorry. What have you been up to?

digging_holes and Zotto! are sorely missed. I also miss Shan and Jonnynotsobravo, though I've seen them both around here and there in the last couple months.

I am still around the river every now and again, but time has not been on my side...
Thanks for thinking of me blacwolve. May every night be a full moon for you, and I mean that in a good way, so bay away for me!

I miss PSI Teleport. Though I guess the awesome perpetuity of that bra thread made it seem like she never left. I resurrected the Komodo dragon thread on GC this morning and saw her in it and was like "Awwww..."
I miss Bokonon too. I stay away because of that whole Fatal Attraction thing with him.
