just ignore and let this one die

*hugs* Oryx. I don't understand what is going on, but *hugs*

Pass.

Pep (Did I hear you are applying for the new forums moderator position?)

I never suggested I knew the tastes of *all* the women in this thread . . .

Pep ( . . . but I know more than *you* might realise. )

If you are going to try to bate me why didn't you say "sauce" not "source"?

Pep (Parenthetical postscripts are not accommodated by conventional grammar.)

PS You could always try to create your own USP, but you will have to try a little harder.

Then it all hasn't been for naught. especially the Hangout, where you were among the major contributors. Chin up , Punkin.

Oh I am sure you do, however what you said was:

The fact you said "*the* ladies of this thread" does indeed indicate you meant all of *the* ladies in this thread. I just don't see any other reading of it to be correct. So my comment stands.

Oryx, I didn't have you pegged as a Brannalike Cassandra type.

I have reconsidered my expectations regarding the forums on the basis of Blue's recent apparent interest, and I reckon that all that is going to happen is that these forums are going to be recreated using the forum software that is part of the blog suite. So please don't burn your bridges just yet. You are one of the few oases of good humour in a semi-desert of po-faced political correctness, and abandoning this thread pre-emptively doesn't have much going for it from your own or anyone else's point of view. Have another drink and reconsider, please!

Pep (If you do I promise not to post any more dead cats.)

Could somebody please send me an e-mail when this thread is available in paperback ?

If I had wanted to say "all of the ladies" I would have said "all of the ladies".

Pep (I generalise; who doesn't?)

("sauce"...nah, I'm not from Georgia. I can't do the accent. But I'd never bate you...bait you maybe... )

J

But if grammar rules aren't followed, how do we ever discern the proper meaning?

Only upon prompt receipt of the correct amount of carbon credits

But if we did that, we'd also have to do a cliffs notes, and I don't have the strength to try to condense this puppy.

Glad to see you took mine!


Can you *ever* discern the "proper meaning" of another's commuinication using simply words?

Pep (Or is that question worthy of a thread of its own?)

And I always loved the Prom outfits created from duct tape:

Your choice of words is all inclusive by any reading of that sentence. In fact you would have had to add a qualifier such as "some" or "a few of" to indicate you didn't mean them all.

Sure, we all generalise just wanted to make a point especially as you don't really know my taste in men and as I am a lady of the thread by all standards...well you know where I am going with this

Hey, I've only chosen badly a couple of times

To me this sounds like "Your home will be rebuilt using the finest corrugated cardboard available."

I have already given up on that horrible SL Answers. I can't be on the site for longer than five minutes without getting a literal headache. It is the most feature-free software they could have chosen. It's hard to navigate. It's hard to follow threads or find anything. It's just wrong from the ground up, and I say that after giving it what I believe was a fair trial.

.

What all of you did was definitely NOT for naught. You folks created a home and family that I was lucky to become a part of. I'm not sure if my SL adventures would have continued this long without all the Forum folk.

I am bummed that LL just cannot seem to *get it*.

*hugs* and thanks for your part in it.

Perhaps, but will that new forum even allow for a thread such as this to continue? Admittedly, Blue's entrance has made me pause a bit on turning my back on anything "official" as far as LL is concerned, but if a new forum does not have a conversational space such as what RA has become, then I am not interested in it anyway, no matter how it looks or functions.

You do realize that the paperback version never comes out until the hardback has been out for at least a year or two, right?

LMAO!!!!!

Good morning Fellow Threadies.

Did anyone see the footage on the Wyoming tornado that captured the eye? That was great stuff.

Will and I are starting our vacation this Saturday. I'm flying out to Buffalo, NY going to see Niagra Falls and taking a road trip to Toronto. He says the road trip will give us more time to "bond" with each other. When he said that, another 4 letter word came to mind and it isn't what you think. I'm thinking more like kill each other if he starts scaring me while he is driving. On first meeting and trip to Atlanta, he liked to scare me to death when he was driving. That gave me real good practice on closing my eyes.

If you want to get a bit more risque in your fashion design, saran wrap, which also comes in assorted colors, is a very handy item. It's such a versatile product.

Brenda you little fashion diva you


Good morrow Threadworld - as always a pleasure to count down Armageddon with you.

Oryx dear- we are migrating that is all-

Now as usual I am way late in leaving for york - geesh one would think I was putting it off somehow!

Hugs to all who need huggins - goodnight well wishes for those on the side of the world that such is relevant.

Back in a bit

Perhaps you have identified a critical point; you consider yourself a "lady of the thread", whereas I don't have enough information to corroborate that.

Pep (I thought your taste focus was on the anti-anaemia considerations.)

So what are you batting now?

Pep (If you don't go to the plate, you can't hit a homer.)
