The post below by five fresh fish is a joke. Use of MetaTalk is getting out of hand.

No one has to answer a question, and certainly one so unimportant as this has no merit being re-posted here.

Forgive me, but couldn't you just have made this point in the thread itself?

Getting out of hand? I would say all this wanking is right there 'in hand'. ;-P

Shit. We're going to need a MeMeTa pretty soon, aren't we?

Matt, you might want to block out some time in Skippy's schedule, right after that GoogleBombing thing that kickingtheground wants.

I'd do her.

Witty's trying to pull a Tiamats. Please, no one start a thread on it!

We can just leave him alone with the pigs and the banjo.

I'd do you too Beth.

That's Ms. Swan to you, Witty. And since you seem to be indiscriminating, the pigs will do you just fine:-)

Pigs have always known how to fly, by the way.


They just haven't had a reason to before.

Don't worry, I pre-emptively linked to this thread in the one below it last night because I knew it was coming. This is all really a carefully constructed mismanagement of manpower.

MetaTalk - Where MetaFilter crawls up it's own arse, and dies.

orange swan: oh for crying out loud, get a life.
Blue stone: I agree 100%.

tiamat, face it: at this point repetitively posting the same non sequitur comment in various threads can be considered "pulling a tiamat". This will pass soon enough, but you know - don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
posted by taz at 11:30 PM on November 8, 2003

Tiamat, shouldn't that be "Orange Swan: I just don't know if you have a life or not?"

All right, all right, I'll lay off you. Really though, my comment was aimed at Witty, in an effort to forestall some other non sequitur repetitive comment rampage, or heaven forbid, another stupid thread on said rampage. You'd been called out already.

angry modem's pullin' the ol' tiamat, too.
