@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

Yea, why can't we just get little (fuzzy - it's always fun) JL's and Pedro's for our desks.
They can just spend their time being them while we work, cheering us up, and then when the little fuzzy JL's and Pedro's want to get, erm, sproingy, they can climb into the rollerdex or something.

I find my fuzzy alien, mushroom and dragon don't work effectively enough.

be complete again my post!
weeeeeeee.

Holy cow.  I will figure out how to do this.  I will.

edit: I quoted you too fast.  That brilliant bit of prose, which you apparently reconsidered, then withdrew, will live in infamy!  Forever.  

I think it's hilarious.

Where has Fearless Dictator been today?  Why do I get the feeling something is gonna hit the fan when he sees all that has gone on in here today.

I am still basking in the warm glow of my new notebook computer.

However, I have been very busy and will continue to be until the end of the year.  So most of you will escape my swift fist of retribution long enough to play around a little.

Mostly I close threads because you little monkeys have been quite busy over the past few days and I don't have time to read EVERY POST anymore.

SO I WILL TRUST THE MODERATORS TO THEIR JOBS AND WILL NOT CLOSE DOWN THE BOARD THE LAST THREE WEEKS OF THE YEAR LIKE I HAD PLANNED TO

Dare I ask whether you mean creating a tiny doll of yourself, or having sex in a Rolodex?

Probly not, huh?

Oh, and I second the necessity of the Pedro and JLD fully poseable action figures, although I would keep them in lewd poses, on their knees, hands together, just flat-out hardcore praying 24/7.

This sounds frighteningly like the conversations my S.O. and I have about our stuffed frog and turtle. It's quite eerie.

OK, I don't mean to tell anyone how to do their jobs, but I don't get this whole "The boards are crazy and out of control" vibe.  Compared to 90% of the message boards and other on-line communities I've visited, this one is downright civil and orderly.

If this is all in jest and I just don't get it, please whack me upside the head.

This is bizarrely disturbing in the light of the "Suckin' Dick Got This Man" thread.

Not so much disturbing as redundant - it's like asking "ooh! wait! does this car come standard with pedals?"

Fair enough. Admittedly, it's not as required per se, but... well, you see where I'm going with this.

(Now I want a Jough bobblehead for my dashboard.)
