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
Awww....Hkmk....Thanks!
Sionnsar has been a driving force in my life since “WAY BACK WHEN!”
He would have known EXACTLY what to do to get you back on track, and I suspect he is smiling now, thinking of how hard we have to work to do what he did with ease, dignity and style!
We are approaching the anniversary of his death, and I feel his presence more every day...
That would only work if you are wrong-handed.
(Thinking of #1 son ...)
I resemble that remark; just substitute daughter instead. Thinks H&M and Forever 21 are just waiting for the opportunity to put her on speed dial.
Or, her big break as a solo guitarist is just a gig or two away. Current #1 hero is a young lady by the name of Orianthi. We attended her show this past Tuesday at a dinner club called Billboard Live Tokyo. The food was only okay, but the service was well done, and the music was actually top notch, if you like rock/blues of the genre played. I got called out for embarrassing my table with air guitar groove crunchy nom nom moves.
What can I say? I'm an occasional liability in certain social settings. Sometimes it's even on purpose. ;)
Here's a shot of the interior of the club, which is located inside a beautifully appointed mall and business complex called Tokyo Midtown, at Roppongi:
Note the view of Tokyo beyond the windows behind the stage.
Happy B-hey! Gomen, if it’s lated.
Nice-looking place.
I’m off to Central Piedmont Community College to pay Bill’s fall tuition this morning. He has a Plan involving working this summer and through the next school year as a lifeguard, while attending part-time, thereby having enough credits and enough money to transfer to a Major State University in fall 2014. It could happen. When he gets off his tuchus, he’s a good student.
Thanks! I’ll take late wishes! And no gomen necessary!
Turns out Bill’s tuition can’t be paid until July. However, the college parking lot and an adjoining dead-end street were perfect for Tom to practice backing and 3-point-turning.
Sooo good to see you, F_J!
Lol! Good morning!
The ability to roundly embarrass your children is highly underrated. You rock!
Good for Tom training!
So when is the next sojourn to the DMV? I’m glad I only had to drive with one child...the other was “away from home” at the time of her Driver’s Ed. Where she REALLY learned to drive was in Italy! LOL!
We will probably go tomorrow morning for Tom, even if Elen isn’t ready. She’s going to run out of time on her “eligibility certificate” by the end of next week, though.
We’ve been working on Tom’s high school transcript, so he can get into the part-time college program in the fall.
Tom needs to be kept busy. An idle mind, and all that, makes Tom a dull boy.
This IS the end of the week! Unless you’re talking about next week for Elen.
Elen’s certificate expires May 24.
Tom will have some “summer school,” a little formal Spanish education to go along with his “immersion,” and catching up on English literature. And swim team, and camp, and yardwork.
So Elen still has some time. Perhaps a day of prayer and meditation would help her quit over-thinking the tests at the DMV. I found that reading the manual once was the best solution for me, no matter what state I was taking the test in.
“Studying” it caused me anxiety in the form or over-thinking to the point that I failed the Missouri test twice. After that, I decided that life was not defined by a driver test, and most states have similar laws. Those laws, are, for the most part LOGICAL! (Believe it or not, Tom and Elen!)
If she pays attention when you and/or Der Prinz are driving, she should do just fine. It’s NOT rocket surgery!
I know, right? And the irony of ironies is that it's completely effortless. All I have to do is act cool in front of my child, and mortification automatically ensues.
Good to see you too, Sg.
It’s been a week, so maybe she’s calmed down.
This whole situation is Unnngh. And now it turns out they don’t want to hire Bill at the aquatic center after all. Maybe he’ll try Kennel Help ...
Does the expression, “Periculoso” mean anything to you!
I don’t believe that I have ever looked “cool” in front of anyone. However, later on in life, I found out that the “cool” people hadn’t the foggiest notion which end was up. So yay to those of us who asked questions incessantly, crawled all over our buddies shining flashlights into their eyes observing pupillary reaction, and didn’t do anything worthy of our being consigned to the penal system. Yay, us!
*giggle* Life is good!
