It never ceases to amaze me when I see how low we go to make someone laugh. I'm guilty of it all the time; something about laughter that warms the soul I guess.

Who here hasn't had the jruns?

<Sombre Voice>

Today ... an era came to an end.
The website known as MetaFilter is no more.
People went to its address this morning and found ... nothing.
It is believed that MetaTalk is to blame.

There was so much nitpicking on MetaTalk, that eventually, all the threads in MetaFilter simply unravelled.

The site leaves behind a widow, Mr. Haughey, and a dog, named quonsar.

You'll need someone to brush that pony hair.

How is that MeFi can't connect to the JRun server but MeTa and Ask MeFi can? I'm not trying to bug Matt about the uptime, just curious as to how this odd situation came about.

what the fuck purpose does "JRun" serve anyway????

I logged in on a Monday and my server stood still, Da JRun Run Run, Da JRun Run.

"a widow, Mr. Haughey"? Matt must be one confused person.

It's really hard to click on a hyphen or an exclamation point. I guess I should cut back on the caffeine.

Please chico, only one per customer. Don't want to have a JRun on the inventory.
posted by soyjoy at 10:42 AM on September 17, 2004


Sorry, soyjoy. I just started typing and I jran off about a dozen decent ones, and lots more groaners, offensive ones and WTFs.

Maybe I'll start cranking out FPPs and cut P_G at their own game! Yeah, there'll be a jrun on jpuns!

Damn, that's good coffee. And hot, too!

Anyway, this little joke seems to have run its course. PG has gotten his MeFi hand-jobs over it and was called a motherfucker by the admin *inside* a deletion comment.

The MeTa callout just completes the cycle.

Oh, I forgot to mention: ha.

chico, there's no need to apologize for something that gets Bruce Dickinson's voice in my head. Unless I wind up with one foot up on my cube singing out lout.

Anybody wanna buy the domain name Jrun.us?

I've thought that the joke was funny in the way that's not. But, you know, if you don't like the injokes scroll past them.

Are we finally jrunning out of ways to play on the term, "jrun"?
posted by Evstar at 7:20 PM on September 17, 2004


It looks like it's just about jrun its course.
posted by LittleMissCranky at 8:03 PM on September 17, 2004


Oh, sweet McCartney on a stick, no. I'm trying to avoid being banned on the jrun.

But at this point, I've got enough credits for a Masters in JRuntology, fergodsake.

It's Paul McCartney And Wings!

Stuck inside these blue walls, sending HTML forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like us,
Matt you, Matt you
If you ever get out of here,
Think of giving it all away
To a solid ISP.
All you need is a pint a day
If you ever get out of here.

Well, my brain exploded with a mighty crash as I read some more from the Dark,
And the first one said to the second one there I think that fucker's stunned.
Filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun.
And the jailer ShepD and sailor Moz were hassling every one

For the filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun

Well, then Gyan drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the server room for the software had just crashed.
Filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun.
And the jailer ShepD and sailor Moz, were searching every one

For the filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun

Well, the night was falling as the americacentric world began to go to bed.
But in Korea they’re just logging in for a morning read, but MetaFilter never will be found.
Filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun

And Pretty_Generic, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun, filter on the jrun
