So, if you put a baiting thread up that isn't so funny in retrospect and delete it after someone comments (it wasn't as funny written out as it appeared in my head), in turn forcefully causing them to be the one who is naked per the first post is naked rule, is that some kind of assault via message board?

I got the holiday snickerdoodle flavor, which was really good!

Don't like pumpkin, don't like coffee. Do I have to return my complimentary white girl card and ceremonial uggs I don't wear?

Yes, and you're forever banned from Syracuse University. None of these are necessarily bad things.

Eh, that'd only inconvenience me if I had ever had any plans to go to New York.

No, that is what we call a "Reverse Ghost Post".

In the past, in eon days of yore when the Paizo forum was young and clunkier and held together more with duct tape than bolts, younger FAWTL threads would be plagued with phantasms and figments of spectral posts, invisible to the naked eye within the thread at first, but clearly recorded as extant by the "latest post by" announcement and "(X new)" links.

The posts could be made to appear by replying to them, but quite often they would appear surprisingly, their existence unnoticed until after a reply had already been written to what seemed like a current conversation but was actually somewhat outtimed.

In the years since, The Postmonster as he is known has ceased the birthing of these apparitions; thus, their like only occurs in the rare occasion, such as you have done, of a post being deleted after being replied to. (Or perhaps not-so-rare, in the case of moderator action. Don't look at me, I'm a psychic, not an internet sociologist.)

You're also no longer allowed to name your kids alternative spellings of traditional names, like Eryka, Typhani, Merrie, Jesika, or Taleur. (All example names I ran into while a substitute teacher years ago.)

Don't plan on kids, but that's kind of how I name NPCs.

Speaking of coffee... I can't stand sugar in my coffee. It's all kinds of wrong flavor wise. Thou shalt NOT mix bitter and sweet.

Yeah, quality makes a huge difference. Best cup of coffee I've ever had was from a Hawaiian coffee farm while I was on vacation once. Bought the beans fresh, and ground it up ourselves once we got back to where we were staying. It was absolutely divine.

My boss uses the "employee morale or whatever" budget he gets to keep the employee coffeepot stocked with the good stuff we sell. Not only do we love him for it, those of us coffee drinkers in the store find we have quite the knowledge of our selection to impart on customers. Which is probably exactly what my boss is trying to achieve.

I find that sweet coffee tastes good, but only if you make it, well, sweet. Half measures taste nasty, likely because bitter and sweet mix poorly and you have to overwhelm the bitter. Of course, that much sugar each morning makes one fat, and I am already over 100 pounds overweight. So I drink my coffee black almost every day, with the exception of going to the coffee shop for something sweet and involving chocolate and cream, which I do maybe a couple times a month.

Hasty blogpost. It's the second time when I remembered to write the blogpost very-very late... :/

Fun weird coffee tidbit. I love coffee. Not quite Gilmore girls level coffee love but that's mostly because I haven't worked back up to that level since my no caffeine stint. :)
I'm a soy milk no sugar kinda girl. Can drink black coffee if it's good quality, but the texture always seems wrong without milk. But I can't taste alkaloids due to a fun little genetic quirk, so I've never experienced the bitter flavor that coffee is supposed to have. (Caffeine is an alkaloid.) Coffee has nearly the same flavor profile as chocolate to me. Any bitterness is so mild as to be nigh unnoticeable. Except for Starbucks coffee which is an abomination since they burn their beans to a crisp. I do not want to drink charcoal. Blech.
Never understood the coffee hate until I tried chicory blend. I'm told the spit take was impressive. And now I get it. I will never ever bug anyone about finding the flavor of coffee disgusting again. That stuff is nasty. :)

Hmm. That was kinda ramby and sounded better in my head. Probably time to go to bed like an hour ago. :)
Thanks to those who sent well wishes about the dental stuff. Doing much better now. Can almost chew properly again. :)

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...Hate coffee. Always have, always will. Even the smell of it, especially while brewing, makes me nauseous. Which is a particularly bad thing considering I have to make at least 5 pots of it every morning at work.

If I don't get my coffee in the morning, the world will pay.

And that's without considering it's numerous health benefits.

Which are numerous.


I'm about to run out of coffee in a couple days. I have a ton of decaffeinated tea laying around, though, and I get paid Friday. I'll just have to drink double strength Irish Breakfast for a few days.

I'm not sure coffee can claim "Keeps captain yesterday from destroying the world" as a health benefit.

I will be on the night shift for the next three weeks, but I am off on Monday. So I am staying up until 6ish. Since I am a bit bored and tired, I decided to play around with the KhanAcademy in their math section. Addition and subtraction went well. Then we get into multiplication of decimals. ~bangs head against the desk~ I forgot just how much a PITA that was. And I was never really good at it. ~goes off to try my hand at doing it longhand~

I find most of math to be a collection of trick questions.

Despite my name, I vaccilate between the two. It depends on my mood. I can brew up coffee with my little one-cup brewer (NOT a Keurig, because I'm an adult and I don't think something as simple as brewing coffee needs to be even more simplified for triple the cost) I can make a cup of coffee a lot faster than I can tea, so it tends to actually be coffee I drink more at home. My job, however, doesn't have free coffee, but sells good stuff in the cafeteria and auto stores, so I bring tea to work since boiling water alone is easier to make for free.

Really, I should have gone with theassortedtraditionalcaffeinatedbeveragesgamer, but that doesn't roll off the tongue or abbreviated as well.

Never drink coffee. Don't dislike the taste (although it is the hard narcotics to tea's gentle euphoriant*, to be fair, and it feels a bit like being smacked around the head with a bitter black warhammer), just don't drink it.

*Euphoriant isn't a word, you say? Ha! Ha! Ha! WELL, IT IS NOW.


Excellent!

More coffee for me!

Mmm.. antioxidants.

Indeed. My coworkers have learned not to talk to me before coffee.

Or really before 11 am...

Interestingly, I generally can't tolerate black coffee unless it is really really good coffee.

Tea, however, I can drink straight up all day long. Hot or iced, black green or white, doesn't matter. I grew up drinking it that way and the bitterness doesn't bother me in the least.

I've been told that is weird.

Never gotten the point of coffee in any variety. Its only good use is in chocolate balls (which used to have a rather less politically correct Swedish name).

Hope Lynora's teeth issues resolve themselves in the best possible way and that CH's mum's knee behaves during the healing process.

Take care of those lungs, LordSynos.

Limey, stay above the waterline!

And hope everyone else is fine, I probably missed something when I speed-read 15 pages worth of Fawtliness.

Chapter 1 of the accounting text is 29 pages, followed by 18 pages of problems. Not 18 problems, 18 pages of problems. I bet CH will say I should work them all because that's the best way to learn the material.

Thanks so much. What would you prefer for Christmas, a box of assorted scorpions or a single majestic cobra?

Of course, that was like 34 years ago, so that could be the nostalgia talking.

Maybe once you get through this you will be able to help me. My weakest subject on the exam I took was the part where I had to analyze corporate accounting statements.

Mind you, I once had coffee that was cheap and no sugar or cream, so I got desperate and poured a little Country Time pink lemonade mix in to cut it, so I may be biased, flavor wise (it actually was pretty good).

Cheap coffee has it's uses, like spreading around your campsite to keep animals away
