i'm sorry a thread in the AP section got out of control and will undoubtedly add to your monday workload.
the jokes didnt work i'm afraid and it degenerated rather quickly:(
I say!
it seems i've been a bit of Scamp, dreadfully sorry! Cheerio then!
i encourage our 3 year old son Milo (and he looks like and is named after Milo Bloom (except no glasses) from Bloom County, a happy coincidence i assure you) any way i encourage him to yell "Money Talks!" as we make our weekly stroll inside our state capitol.
i'm not sorry, just bragging:)

I am going to offer an honest and sincere apology for your Monday. That WotR thread exploded far worse than I've seen any thread go before, and you have the unenviable job of choosing to:
(a) Delete the last 150 posts or so, or
(b) Read said posts and decide which ones merit deletion, and then
(c) After either (a) or (b), decide whether or not to lock the thread.
It's not the kind of thing I'd want to deal with on a Monday, and I consider you a very rational, caring person so I'm sorry you're going to have to read through all that.
(And I'm sorry for trying to defuse it -- I know such posts never help, but I really wanted to try...)
I'm also sincerely sorry for being a Bore (or 3 actually) i was really bored and thought being funny would defuse things, it did not, i hope the rest of your week is much better:)
also if it makes you feel better Karma stabbed my foot i suspect for my part, it hurts a lot (honestly serves me right)

I had a friend who put a pitchfork through his own foot while aerating his lawn.
Never thought I'd let him live it down...
'til I put a burning capitol building through mine...
well now you gotta elaborate, a burning capitol building? i have big feet prone to many injuries (i've also pitchfork stabbed my foot) but even i haven't done that.
the thing that sucks with my current injury is its from a tree so naturally part of it broke off and is still in my foot, i'm just trying to help it work its way out.
still it beats what happened to Paul George, in fact......
....i'm sorry i watched the video of Paul George getting injured, it was literally the grossest thing i've ever, ever seen, and i grew up with 7 brothers on a Farm, so i've seen some gross s+#*!

So, Captain Yesterday, just how many threads ARE you and I going to derail this fine weekend? :-P
When I was a teen, I burned everything. Lead figures. Plaster pigs. He-Man. Barbie. If it appeared in my house it got coated with gasoline and glue, lit on fire, and burned. One of my "childhood treasures" is "Snail Motel", a stop-motion film showing two dozen snails going into a Lincoln Log house and then the house exploding (disassembled model rocket engines) in a hefty 6' fireball. Fun stuff!
Anyway, when I was a kid back in 1974 we visited New York City and Washington, D.C., and my parents bought us all souvenirs. (I remember my brother got a Statue of Liberty piggy bank.) I got a model of the capitol building.
So, being a teenager, I cared nothing for childhood memories and coated it with glue and set it on fire. It was very, very boring. Little did I know it was solid (some metal that doesn't melt easily). So I decided to put it out. By stomping on it. (Teenager! Remember?) Know that spire on top of the building? The red-hot model version of it went straight through my shoe and into my foot.
Being a teenager, I pulled it out, saw that the wound had self-cauterized, and proceeded to show all my friends the "cool hole going into my foot."
I was disappointed when my mother used a Q-tip to disinfect it and it was no longer see-through (to avoid unpleasant visuals).
i just figure if i say i'm sorry for something its not derailing;) and yes i was also stupid as a teenager (dating my wife is the only smart thing i did as a teenager, tho we didn't marry until much later) one guy i knew tried jumping over a bon fire drunk, he made it, threw his arms in the air in triumph!..... and promptly fell on his ass into the fire, had to sit on a cushion the whole rest of the school year:)
i'm sorry all men are stupid as teenagers:)
So Chris not only smacked everyone down in the offending thread, but smacked me down in my own thread to boot! Woo-hoo for Chris!
But this means we need another campfire story for no reason!
We come from a long line of backpackers, my best friend's dad included. His favorite "campfire trick" was to wait until the campfire was nothing but ash-covered coals, then say, "Wow! Now THAT fire looks good enough to walk on!"
He'd then go through this whole show of taking off his shoes and socks, then walking across the fire.
So he was pulling this stunt one night, sat down on a log, and turned around to take off his boots.
In what was, as far as anyone who saw the event could tell, a completely unthinking and innocent action, one of his friends stirred the coals.
Yep. He had to be carried out of the wilderness. Never pulled that stunt again...
I prefer asbestos-lined socks.
Wow! Several hours of sobering up later, my post is a bit mean towards Chris. The thread spilled over into my campaign journal thread and she cleaned it up without being asked or anything.
I did appreciate it.
I'm sorry I sounded like a jerk!
(And now we're back on topic! Woo hoo!)
that was actually me she was smacking down Nobodyshome, i flagged my own posts there, felt bad about it and all:(
i would like to point out i am incredebly ignorant of messageboard etiquette as this is the only one i've ever used, so i'm sorry for that, however i'm a smart person and so i learn from my mistakes so all this is a learning experience for me:)

LOL. You're not bugging me.
I'm very very difficult to bug.
The only posts that get to me are the ones that read my campaign journals and say, "You're GM'ing it WRONG!"
Yeah, THAT'LL get a rise out of me.
And now don't you DARE!!!

You're not apologising to Chris very well, either.

I apologize to Chris for my being very impatient for this month's PDF releases to go on sale.
I also apologize to Chris for hearing "I've got funshine on a cloudy day" every time Sharaya posts.
I apologize to Chris for not flagging Steve Geddes' post.
I apologize for being a Tsundere toward Paizo.

I apologize. I'm not sure why yet, but I feel it's just good policy to apologize in advance.
It's always easier to ask for forgiveness afterward than to get permission beforehand.
I apologize to Chris for giving Lucky7 a teensy push down the path to Evil.

We had a CEO who managed to ride this phrase all the way to the destruction of our company.
Nothing like encouraging interdepartment infighting during an economic downturn to make a company really shine!
And I apologize for yet again derailing this thread. It's an addiction, I tell you! I can't help myself!

The idea in an open market = businesses compete, competition forces companies to increase efficiency, end result being most competitive, efficient, cost effective companies survive = best result for everyone. Then just take it a step forward, if it works between companies, why not between divisions? Departments? Individual employees? etc, etc.
I apologise to Chris for continuing this off topic tangent. I also apologise for posting in obvious lock-bait threads.

Yeesh. The programming of the upgrade seems to cross intellectual properties rather quickly.
Yeah, interdepartmental fights are so much fun...for the trolls who are in the fight. The innocent bystanders have a different take.

I'm sorry Chris has to read a lot of awfulness and negativity. Especially since she seems very nice.

And besides, it's easier to SEEK permission, because then you can sit on your butt for every decision until you get permission from a higher-up, thus giving you a lower work/relax ratio and be seen as a diligent employee!

We're pretty all-encompassing like that.
I apologize for almost derailing a thread with Double Standards / Gender Equality stuff.

I apologize for not taking over the world yet.
I had mentioned keen and improved critical stacking.
I talk about CR 50s and building a campaign history.
I prefer martial classes, though love the magus for flavor.
I apologize for almost derailing a thread with Double Standards / Gender Equality stuff.
So, wait... is that apology for the "almost" or the derail? Derailing threads is a time-honored tradition! Just ask me and Captain Yesterday! (Sorry, Orthos -- you usually just encourage us in our malfeasance! Though you've been around long enough I'm sure your derailments are the stuff of legend...)

I'm more of a supervisor, really. No apology necessary.

I'm sorry I came up with the idea for a story casting you as an inquisitor charged with ferreting out the notorious sorcerer Baba Ji, who is terrorizing the good citizens of the city.
I'm still writing it anyway, so I guess this isn't an apology so much as a notice.
I apologize for smugly mocking people whose orders hadn't shipped with the fact that mine had. I feel bad about it now. :(

I'm sorry that I find your avatar disturbingly attractive.
There. I've said it. I feel better.
I apologize that now that you've changed your avatar, this is even creepier than it was before...
I apologize for the pair of my posts that just got whacked in (one of) the soon-to-be-locked thread(s). I did try to be very tactful, non-finger pointy, and even slightly informative... but Wis is my dump stat, and I have minimal ranks in Sense Motive and Diplomacy. I'm sorry you have to spend a substantiative chunk of your mornings cleaning up threads.
I have been surprisingly making my Will saves and refraining from further posting in that thread. If I do find myself typing out a reply, I'll try to instead just log off and go outside for a bit.
I apologize that I yet again participated in an incendiary off-topic discussion (most likely the same one as Slaad), and take personal glee that none of my 3 posts were deleted.
Ize canz be taught!

I apologize for breaking out of prison and then breaking back into it, hoping no one would notice. They noticed.
