What's the mood around here? I've got one toe in the water. Is the water warm?

I'm surprised you can't tell. Unless the toe has been severed.

The water is lukewarm. It's safest that way.

HOT WATER BURN BABY! HOT WATER BURN BABY!

Whose toe is it? Is it yours? Is it an alien toe? Can we see your toe for identification purposes? Do you have a permit for this toe? In what way is this a toe, rather than some other bodily organ? Did you know you can be arrested in Barbelith State for the false attribution of bodyparts to areas of the corpus?

Barbelith is spiky. Barbelith is guarded. Barbelith is smart. Barbelith is loyal. Do not play with its whiskers, or it will probably bite you.

In the toe.

Thanks for the warning on the "whiskers" thing. But the toe is my own, fully licensed, bonefied, triple-rectified, unsevered, round, skin-wrapped, toe-nail adorned, fully functioning, digitous digit.

How many moderators are there in here anyway? Am I the only non-moderator? Are there 1209 moderators and me? What does it all mean? I'm trembling like a school girl. Hold me! I just want to feel safe again. I just want to feel safe!

No, sweetie, you're not the only non-moderator. You can see who moderates each forum listed across the top of each. I think there's about three or four per forum, give or take.

Pfah! Moderators are a myth, invented by barbe-parents to frighten little barbe-children. According to some stories they have laser vision and four arms.

You've got to watch out for the Lab mods-- they've got lasers and memory-erasing devices and deathrays and stuff. And Magick mods can all do that lightening-out-of-the-fingers thing. Someone who's a moderator in both the Magick and the Lab... well, you'd just better watch it round that person.

I'm moving for this topic to be deleted on security grounds. Your memories of this topic will be painlessly erased.

Please go about your business.

Didn't you get the memo on the new psychic implants yet?<

No.
I did not get the memo.
Why did I not get the memo?

You're all plotting against me, aren't you?

Mordant: "But if we keep wiping their brains, how will they learn to fear us?"

You keep 'em constantly scared when they're not actually in the process of having their brains wiped. More fun that way, too. (Especially seeing as how Switchboard mods have a higher than average level of paranoia- it's nice to see someone else freaked out for a change.)

This is without mentioning the secret forums, each with its own set of mo... but I've said too much.

For the last time, there are no Secret Fora. There never have been. Ever.

Just so there's no question about it.

Because people keep saying this.

There absolutely aren't any fora where we lifetimers get together and discuss things.

None.

No secret fora? You got me here under false pretences.

It is true about Tom's legendary Longtime 'Lithers' barbe-pool-parties at his millionaire mansion in the Cotswolds, with m.c. Michael Barrymore and naked trolls dancing in cages, innit?

If not, where has Ganesh been going to snort cocaine off those rent boys' thighs?

It's true. No secret fora. No, siree.
We don't sneak off behind your backs and deride you.
We do not, and I wish to make this quite clear, keep a list of annoying moderation requests next to the Inter-Continental DNA-Seeking Incontinence Ray.

no secret-thing at all, nowhere.
and it's not very kind to call the Haus, Nick, Jack Fear, or Grant B. "...naked trolls dancing in cages...", by the way.

Our good friends at CBBS have a secret forum. Only mods and admin admitted. They sit around smoking pot, opium, crack, house paint, the shroud of Turin and just about anything else, talking about how they're gonna keep the chuckleheads out.

If you don't have at least one secret forum here just for plotting, you're gonna be overrun by chuckleheads and/or Christians. It's only a matter of time...

if it hasn't already happened!

I'm procrastinating a paper.

What are you guys listening to, artist-and-song-title-wise, right now?

I want something to look for on limewire.


...and those hand-of-glory-in-a-crackpipe losers are all listening to beatles 45s at 33rpm. I already asked them

You fuckers are somewhat twisted. You're mum un daud didn't want to tell you probably. But you'll stimulate the therapy industry when you finally admit you have a problem.

To quote Tim "Ted the Bellhop" Roth:

Problem? I haven't got a problem. I've got problems. Plural.
