I just spent alot of time posting!
I see that, looks like you hit a small bump.

What happened?
Well, someone set up us the bomb?
I'm serious!
Oh, well.. looks like your post got pulled.
Augh! I spent alot of effort on that! How did it happen?!
Couldn't be because you were doing it wrong?
What the, how'd you get that video of m-- uh.. I don't even wear that!
Right Skippy. *cough* Well, since you asked, here's how posts get removed.
First, if it is against TOS it gets seen.
Then it gets marked.
Okay, I have that much.
Then the mods gather:
Pictured, mods gathering.
I don't think that's how it looks, I..
Look, do you want an answer or not?
...Yes?
Right, carrying on.
Then they back their vehicle up to your post.
Whoah! What the heck is that thing?!
It's a machine, that eats other machines.
With this:
I don't see what this has to do with my post vanishing, can you tell me wha-
Watch it question boy! I have a flamethrower!
You want to vanish like your dog did?
What the?! No, not Roozer too!
To be fair, your dog WAS drunk.
What?! Who would even... please don't point that flamethrower at me.
Right, and after they saw your post off the entire forum, they set it on fire.
Wait.. that man. His face, and fire! Oh GOD WHY?!
Oh, HIS post was all about his face, so the mods set it on fire.
After that, they used the ashes to open a gate between our world and theirs, like this:
BLECH! That's horrible!
And those tentacles! GAAAH!
If you think that's bad, you should see what happens when the mods get their hands on a bad thread.

Oh look, here comes a mod now.
Looks like they want to ask you about that thread you just posted.
Gaaah! Tell them I'm indisposed!
Pictured: Moderator, dunno which one.
Tell them yourself, they're right behind you.
Wait, don't run away!
We haven't gotten to what happens when they edit your thread title!
This concludes our sordid fictional tale.
If you liked that, we have plenty more in the book "Oh the horrible things you'll summon!" rumored to be written by IamnotaMod
Have a good, peaceful rest....
Should you find it, I’m sure NnB and I would both love to know.
Oh, well. In the absence of guidance from the author, I can just imagine they all ended up the way I think they should.
Any survivors of the cast would be wiped out by the Bolsheviks eventually, I suppose, unless they were smart enough to move the to U.S. first.
Fyodor Dostoevsky declared it to be "flawless as a work of art". His opinion was shared by Vladimir Nabokov, who especially admired "the flawless magic of Tolstoy's style", and by William Faulkner, who described the novel as "the best ever written".
No.
Tolkein’s novels are works of art. Tolstoy’s novels are ramblings about some people in Russia and their extra-marital affairs.
Tolkien’s novels need a couple more characters with a sense of humor, in my opinion, but his composition is a pure aesthetic delight. Tolstoy was more like “way too much information about the lives of the redneck clan across the street,” if they all had titles.
You have to consider the source of those quotes: I never liked anything by Dostoyevsky, Nabokov, or Faulkner.
This works, and it’s very pretty. Classical-influenced inspirational pop, in Japanese. We’re all one world, after all ;-).
Very nice song. “Tegami” in Japanese means “postcard” or “letter” and of course that’s what the song is about, a note of encouragement to one’s future self.
It’s just past five on this lovely Monday morning, and that piece set a wonderful tone to start the day off with. Thanks much!
Thanks to you also, TC. Keep those lol-cats comin’!
You think you know how it ends. The current bunch of 'historians' is busy rewriting, er, I mean correctly compiling history...
My evil lovebird “Peaches” was out earlier.
She kept trying to get close to Tristan cat so she could serenade him with her song.
He wasn’t having any of it, he’d ook terrified and run.
She’d let out a sad whistle, then follow him.
Don’t recall who did that one.
But I do recall a multiple worlds story titled “Fragger’s Bottom Line”.
It was lame, drek, but kinda funny.
Columbus much?
Supposedly Norman Spinrad, but I didn't find a listing.
I never understood a thing that Faulkner wrote. Maybe it’s me.
Awesome! That’ll keep us busy!
So good to see you, FJ!
Maybe Tristan is her soulmate. Squeak the Divacat’s one true love was Chuck, the black lab. The poor guy always looked a cross between aghast and appalled every time she’d snuggle up to him. He was, of course, the perfect gentleman and never spurned her.
Today I got an oil change and replaced the gross front carpet mats in the Neon with rubber.
It rolled over 158,000 miles today. Still buzzing along with no issues except the passenger side window. I’m somewhat surprised actually; when I bought it I didn’t expect it to last as long as it has.
