^ yep.  :LOL:

I sometimes wonder if Lestat has somehow managed to post his reply on the wrong thread? or maybe he's hallucinating posts? I dunno .
Thinking he was responding to the gopher; the lack of quoting before responding sometimes makes posts seem directionless.

Still, I'm gonna take potshots in passing when I see a big neon passive aggressive target painted on a post.

How many passive-agrressives does it take to screw in a light bulb?  :orly:







Nevermind, I'll do it myself.  :zoinks:

  This gave me a good laugh to start the day.  I guess you're good for something.  :laugh: :trollface:

That's great. Just don't be telling people I'm good for anything.  :zoinks:

Lestat often does not read timestamps. He can react on a two year old post, without quoting it. Quoting would make a difference.

I have suggested to Lestat before that he quote but I don't know if he read it.

Don't think the thought of quoting crosses his mind, the moment he starts writing.

Yeah my bad, I should have quoted. And renneh, hadn't seen your post about timestamps. Sometimes old things have come up in my unread posts bit, if theres a backlog. Unintentional. I'd hoped it would have been obvious I was responding to the gopher.

And I guess the reason for not taking much note of timestamps, might be due to my severe dyscalculia/borderline acalculia but not quite. Its actually really difficult to read, let alone do anything WITH numbers. So I kinda don't actually even know where the timestamps ARE, I'd have to go and look at two posts in sequence to even find them, I off the top of my head, have no idea. Don't need to be told I can find them. But yes. Shit happens, no harm done.

And hey QV? how you doing? and how is PR? Hope your doing good, and of course, she is in my thoughts.

And don't you worry, my parade, it hasnae' been pissed on. (QV will know what I mean), my 'parade' is doing just fine. Although one of the marching band is just about to march off to go play videogames, guy must have ADD or something. Whilst another is about to go reagent and glassware shopping, he would rather like some sodium, potassium and calcium metal. Barium and strontium too if he can find either at a good price, and in actual lab use quantities rather than mere few chips and slices in inert gas filled ampoules as element collection samples. When it comes to time to building the element collection frame, Lestat is going to do all from scratch and have PROPER display samples, but for the most part those elements will be going to be put to a good use:)
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

It was a good place for awhile, then it descended into chaos and imploded.  And the owner had a big hand in that.  She made me the one and only Admin.  without even asking me or telling me.  I just signed on one day and BAM there it was.  I had access to all admin. powers and stuff.  I tried to pm Crucibelle, to thank her for her "confidence" in me.  But, then again, I was the only regular left.  Everybody had either been banned or walked away.  Basically, my one main job that I did was get rid of the spambots....all 1200+ of them.  I unbanned a couple of people, that crucibelle had forgotten why she banned them.  The site was pretty dead before she finally pulled the plug by not spending any more money on it.  Btw, it took her nearly a month before she responded to my PM.   :dunno:    And yes, it was quite a den of neurotics and a few narcissists.   :laugh:

I noticed Janicka has a birthday coming up and checked her profile. Then I started to recall her and her posts and sent her a PM.

I noticed as well but she hasn't been here for a few years. She was cool.

When your vehicle is REALLY low on gas it does the almost stall as your driving when the fuel pump sucks air :zombiefuck:

I thought I had another 20 miles or so on the tank of gas and didn't want to get it with the trailer hooked up, when it started doing this pulled into the next gas station and filled up putting  34.96 gallons in my 35 gallon tank   :fp:

Am really bad about putting off gas, also bad about forgetting about gas which makes the procrastination worse. There's been a few times when the remaining miles counter read zero, and had no idea how long it had been on zero. It's a moment of realization in total panic to find the nearest station. Have never actually stalled yet though. Husband said my car should be named Maxwell, because it's good to the last drop. :laugh:
