But... do we HAVE to delete the post?? Can't we give him points for posting on such a fine topic?

Listening to soundtrack to HSM2 right now.

Ned Horsey -> wrote this article on radaronline.

Radar Online uses promoters. One named Mike emailed me about my Lohan post from July. He sent me a link to radar online. QED

BTW: I still don't understand why Dom's post stood. If he's Vice's "online guy" (the "Dom" on their staff page) aren't his posts to their stuff self-links? Was it not confirmed that he's the guy on their staff page?

So what was that, three days?

I flunked his test, but self links aren't High School Musical, right?

I'll post your article on my blog, Ned Horsey! My 30+ readers will be very interested!

Loosely confirmed that dom did some contracting/consulting stuff for them at one point but that's (in theory) the end of it. He was polite and straightforward when I talked to him, and knows not to even venture in that direction again. In the mean time, the post was going pretty well, people seemed to find the Fisk article pretty meaty, and, well, yeah. We just didn't kill the post.

I'm really worried about TPS, you guys.

Cortex, scarred and bleeding and wearing a tattered and stained wife-beater, looked down on the self-linker hanging for dear life to the ledge. Cortex paused briefly as he lifted the mighty banhammer. Hope flashed briefly across the self-linker's face. Was the youngest and least experienced of the mods going to make the naive mistake of showing him mercy, and thereby allow him to live to self-link again? Cortex calmly looked into the self-linker's face and said, "You think safety motherfucker."

Fade to ban.

Three of his five comments posted in the fifteen minutes before the self-link. Classy.

Who is Lil' O?

More info on Lil' O (or LiLo, as she is commonly referred to)

Never mind. I figured it out. He's da fat rat wit da cheese.
posted by ND¢ at 1:23 PM on August 24, 2007

I gotta say, The Adventures of Lilo would be a hell of a ROM hack.

Oh, I just thought you were really into boot loaders.
posted by Lentrohamsanin at 1:24 PM on August 24, 2007

LOL, I can't believe there's actually a Lil' O. I was referring to Lindsay Lohan....

In a world where these fine gentlemen are traipsing about freely, Zac Efron is the least of my concerns.

(That was fun)

On that note, we should totally close this thread.
