Good to know.  You'll never catch me on that, though.

Just in case I missed anyone, I'll be away a while at least until things get sorted out here.  (Don't anyone kill yourself over that, there is a holiday coming up.  Don't miss it.)  Until then I'm in touch with some of you in other places including now here where I post by my given name, Mark.

Lots of good folks I know because of this place.  So thank you Tibs for providing the site and all the volunteers who have contributed their time to keeping it running.  Much appreciated.

Of course I won't miss the lord of the flies reaction of the many who couldn't stand the idea of people freely choosing to limit their freedom to insult others for the sake of improved discussion.  You lot will not be missed.  You do you, just not with me.

I'm there with Mark and it is likely to become my primary home. Whether this place remains a weekend retreat/vacation home is still undecided and dependent on several factors.

So this didn't pan out lol. I started my PhD programme, and while I'm having great fun, I'm now commuting from my hometown to uni, and basically have no more free time. I'm usually available on slack though
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

I will not give you kudos for that Sad

I don't agree with your decision, but that is yours and yours alone.





The way you are getting out remains, should you return.

Another one of the "civil" bunch being super nice. Thanks for being you. I'll be me, gladly not with you. I'm so glad you feel like you're better than us, even though you're being a dick about it. This was exactly our argument against it, but hey, keep pretending we weren't exactly fucking right. Enjoy your holiday. Hope your turkey's fucking dry.
