Would it be possible to add a feature that hides individual threads, the same way we can hide some sections? There are some threads that I'd really rather not see.

Not at all. I just get tired of political/religious/culutural threads that constantly devolve into childish pissing matches. There are lots of other places for that kind of crap. I don't see why we have to see it at a site primarily devoted to gaming.

Dark Archive

That's why they're in the Off-Topic Thread. Because they are, you know, off topic. And frankly, if you don't want to read it, don't click it. It's really that simple.

I would like to hide this thread.


I would like to hide the threads that compete with the thread that you spent time and effort thoughtfully making for unappreciative people who go and post in other threads instead of the one provided. Yeah, if there were such threads, I would like to hide them...

The Exchange

Er, yeah.


Hey, Aub. Sup?

The Exchange

Nuffin.


Don't see you around as much as I used to.

As always, the smurf alliance is ready at your beck and call, Mr. Zombie. Nothing quite like a surprise carpet bombing of the little blue bastards to beat down an overactive politics/religion thread.

I'm around, I just tend not to get so involved in the non-PbP threads these days. I lost my interest in the political stuff a bit as it has become a bit more American in subject matter lately (or so it seems) and there has been something of a crack-down at work on people, well, enjoying themselves, so I post much less during the day.


Americans...pshaw. Their antipathy to HRM fills me with bile. Too bad about work.

I think he's referring to anywhere you post.

But then he'd miss all the quasi-stupid humor.

Wait...how would not reading your posts result in missing humor of any type? You posted something funny? When did that happen?

Yep. The one where you can hide individual threads on the Paizo messageboards.

I think it was in an episode of Sliders.

You'd think so. Sadly, many of them seem to be decidely on-topic: that topic being various political crap that eventually devolves into name-calling and such.

And I'd love to not read them, but they keep getting in the way of the truly off-topic insane banter which makes that section a joy to behold.

Hmmm, maybe if they made a Politics and Other Annoying Crap that doesn't fit anywhere else section.....

The last episode of Quantum Leap aired on my birthday. I watched it in a bar while getting plastered. Fun times.

Or we could nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.....

You had fun time on your birthday by watching Quantum Leap? How deprived exactly are you?!?

** spoiler omitted **

"while getting plastered"

Everybody knows that phrase makes things cooler. "I watched grass grow...while getting plastered." :)


I watched plaster dry...while getting plastered.

KEWL!

I agree entirely! However, Quantum Leap starts off with serious amounts of negative, anti-cool. Therefore, the amount of plastering required to make the experience cool and fun would be enormous!

Kudos to AZ for managing that feat :-)

Spoiler:
FTR, I like Quantum Leap, but I could not watch it in a bar, birthday or not.

Exactly! Of couse, that was the day I turned 21.

I didn't stay in a single bar long enough to watch a 1/2 hour T.V. show on my 21st, let alone the final episode of Quantum Leap.


Now I almost wish I remembered my 21st, so that I could indulge in some nostalgia with the rest of you.

I say almost wish mainly because it almost certain that I would regret it if I did remember.

Ah, the glorious effects of alcohol. I'm sure Homer Simpson had something to say about it. If only I could remember the quote.


I don't remember the last couple of hours of it.


On my 22nd birthday I was invited to stop by a house in nearby Scardsale, NY. Therein I was surprised by 22 girls wearing wigs, dancing to the song Roam by the B-52s, but they all sang my first name Rone instead of Roam.

"Rone... if you want to... Rone around the world."

I... I did not know what to say. They had the choreography worked out and everything, and no, we weren't all in a dance troupe together. I felt bad leaving 45 minutes later, but after that ambitious gag fizzled out and I got to hear about The Making Of I just had other places to get to. No one will ever do anything like that for me again, nor will I ever again possess have that kind of sway with and knowledge of the fairer sex. <sigh>

I grow old … I grow old …
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.

Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I do not think that they will sing to me.

-From T.S. Eliot's The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock

Who got that together? And did you know all 22 girls?


And also:

Were you sufficiently plastered to make the ending not suck? If so, please advise as to the quantity of alcohol necessary for that feat. I'd really like to have fonder memories of the way that show ended.

Oh boy.

Tanya J. Meyers organized it, daughter of a Swiss born pathologist. (Man were there some creepy polaroids on that guy's desk). Yes I knew all of the girls well enough. Some quite well indeed.

I have a terrible answer for this. Honestly, I had to go see other girls.

22 was really a banner year for me. Ain't no goin' back.

Ya know, it takes a real dick to go bragging about having 22 girls singing to him on his birthday, who he then had to leave to see other girls, but what really makes this post a landmark in dickism is topping it off with a depressing and painful poem. Talk about a one-two punch.

"Bam - here's one to your ego based on your inadequacy as a man."

"Bam - this one's to your emotional side. Not only are you an inadequate man, but you are so fragile this poem will really take you over the edge."

Well played, my friend. Well played.

I've never used fake dick in my life. Only the best for my guests.

Mental note to self: always have office door closed when reading your replies so as not to get weird looks when I burst out laughing.


Huh. That poem is definitely in my top 100.
