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.
Pictured: Mod hands
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
A happy ending?
You’re missing the best parts! LOL!
Welcome to the Undead Thread!
Good morning! We’ve made it through choir practice, and now I have to make copies of every piece of identity documentation in our entire lives so we can turn in the girls’ passport applications.
LOL!
Last time I got my passport, I only needed my birth certificate and driver license.
Poor you! Of course, next year, I will renew my passport, “just because,” and there is no telling what the requirements will be by then.
I got a new picture made yesterday, and I’m hoping to turn mine in for renewal today, rather than having to mail it in.
My brother in AZ tried to send me money via MoneyPak, and he scratched off (dug out?) the first two numbers. And he’s too scatter-brained to figure out how to email the company and get the numbers. He has all the info. He jsut has to do it,
On the other side of the family, my other brother’s wife lost HER brother yesterday to Parkinson’s disease and a few other things. He was suffering so much for so long. They went to be with him the same day I left for Idaho, which is why they couldn’t make it for the funeral.
Man. I’m really tired of hearing about deaths...
Oy.
Yah. But it’s OK.
On the other hand...I was coming back from Vegas yesterday, taking a friend to the VA Hospital (new, bazillion dollar structure sanctioned by the ursurper of the POTUS position) and drove right into one of our famous thunder showers.
“Shower” is not the right word. “Deluge” is the term, I believe. Of course, with no rain for months, the water lifts the oil off the pavement and cars slide and wobble.
Folks were passing me like I was wired to the road, and I was doing about 62 mph. I had just changed the speed of the wipers, and a car ahead of me and to my right, sped up, splashed water all over the windshield, and cut in front of me.
There was a “pool” of water on the pavement about 200’ long and the width of the four lanes, and the truck began to hydroplane. I took my foot off the gas, and fought to stay in the lane I was in...the middle. I’m sure if I had done anything else, I would have gone sideways and taken a couple of cars with me.
Of course, two exits later, the freeway was dry...
*foosh*
Nothing that exciting here ...
One can reckon that about 60-80% of drivers on the Las Vegas streets and freeways are under the influence of SOMEthing, at any time you choose to drive. Since it’s a 24-hour city, there are people going to and from work around the clock.
Those who are getting off work might go to a bar for a few, or have dinner out and drink a few or may not. But to those of us who don’t work, and don’t drink and drive, we have to learn defensive driving. And since my car accident so many long years ago, I’m a VERY defensive driver!
Boring here, also.
We did finish watching “The Bible”, that miniseries which aired on “The History Channel.” I managed to put aside my inclination to nitpick the details and just let the story roll (which is not in my nature). It is an impressive and extremely thought-provoking show.
I watched “the Bible” most of Easter weekend when it aired. I, too, have a tendency to nit-pick the details, but like you, I let it play out without too much comment.
Of course, my favorites were the “incidental” appearances of Satan, who looks remarkably like someone I decline to mention.
Since my birthday is hard on the heels of Mother’s Day, I requested a copy of the show for either celebratory day, when I was asked by my son what I wanted. Money was the top of the list, but I’m grateful when he remembers to separate the two days.
Unlike my daughter, who occasionally has a birthday and Mother’s Day on the same day, I never will... And maybe that’s good! :o])
I did a search and apparently DE does work on fire ants. It has eliminated ants wherever I’ve used it. It takes a few days to do the job and I sometimes repeat the applications, but it’s safe and effective as long as you don’t inhale the dust. I sprinkle it using one of those powdered sugar shakers. When I lived in the desert, I didn’t kill all the ants indiscriminately because they have value in making the soil more porous, but I used it to keep them out of the house and driveway.
Some giraffes do tricks with their tongues—sort of twirling them around like yo yos. They are so cute!
So keep the giraffes out of the bathroom. See? Problem solved.
LOl, well.
I hadn’t bothered writing it.
Next idea is “Dude, where’s my thread?”
[Thread has been towed away at posters expense]
Hey, Darks!
We’ve been like two ships in the night...
Littlest ArGee was born on Mother’s Day. Today the dates are separated by 2 days.
I found the set at Wally World for the lowest price I’ve seen anywhere. I picked it up as a target of opportunity and robbed all the little ArGees of a Mother’s Day gift possibility.
... sailing around with no idea where your going???
I’ve never really understood that phrase.
Yeah, I have to fill in for my boss tonight.
Did that last night.
Had drill this past weekend.
*sigh*
Half a dozen of one, six of the other, choice of evils, etc etc.
