Occasionally Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 You mean you would stifle your cherubs by refusing to give them the hacksaw to practice Civil War era limb amputation, create a video entitled "Jackass the New Generation", or see if it is possible to saw through jail cell bars a'la Mythbusters? What a fascist. :p Nobody in a jail cell has a hacksaw to use, so they'd better get working on an alternative. Creativity is important. In fact, maybe I'll give them a list of all the items they would have access to in a cell, and let them go at it. And if they can mock up (a la Mythbusters) a limb on which to attempt amputation, well, they may find I'm more generous with the hand tools than they think. And Jackass? I got nothin'. They don't even know what that is. :eek: ZOMG. I AM a fascist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Suddenly I am reminded of: "Luke luck licks lakes. Luke's duck licks lakes. Duck takes licks in lakes Luke Luck likes. Luke luck takes licks in lakes duck likes." OtherJohn, take pity on me. I am dreaming about likes and now Fox in Sox shows up to haunt me in my sleep! ETA: D:. Fox in Sox wears a kilt and the duck licks cupcakes that Luke Luck lovingly lavished so I am really cracking up here. It's a dire situation. A like and 5 big stars for you!

Wildcat Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Nope. It just makes you stingy. :D See how I liked your post there? We both have to admit it was semi-special at best, but I still liked it. Think of it like a cell phone plan, where if you don't use your minutes, they're gone forever. Only with likes, the extra ones disappear at the end of each day. By not using them, YOU'RE LETTING THEM DIE. :crying: Don't let your likes die. Likes DIe!?! :crying: :crying: That is now part of my signature. I am officially pro-like. Love this! I may steal your idea and add it to mine. :hurray: I looked at my notifications and beheld a wondrous sight....the rare triple like! A high degree of difficulty! Stars for faith manor! Uh, feeling dumb here. What's a triple like look like? I have liked, invisibly, 123 posts today. What is the limit? My guess if I've been a like tramp, but haven't been caught by the vice squad because of the problem. If you can't see the tramp, she must not be a tramping! There is almost something disheartening about knowing vice is not chasing you! So, is this like the whole "if a tree falls in the woods and there is no one around to hear it, does it still make a noise....?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 OK. Maybe I have been watching too many paranormal shows or something, but am I the ONLY one who wonders if poor OtherJohn is actually posting on this thread and we can't see him because he caught the same virus that attacked our Likes and he's also ....

FaithManor Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I've tramped them out...155...I a pretty certain the quota is not supposed to be this high. Otherjohn and Charlie are really messing with me because if you increase the dose of an addict to avoid the dt's, they only beg for more. Shame on them! So I may as well be controversial. I cooked dinner in a crockpot, did not return my shoppimg cart to the corral last time I was forced to shop at Walmart, am serving cupcakes Sunday afternoon - store bought too - and did not like "Frozen".

Tohru Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I read pages 1-2-3, then skipped ahead to 6 and completely missed the stars conversation. Unfortunately my computer is about to reboot itself and it's late and I've got to go to bed. I'm a little worried that in the morning, this thread will be invisible, I'll miss finding out about what the personal stars mean and how to do it, BUT in exchange the likes will be back! At least hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drowsiness will wear off totally before lunch but I will be checking up on y'all between naps! Also note that I am perturbed that no one can be bothered to at least respond to one of these invisable star threads with so much as a "boo".

I was at a three forever. Now I'm at a four. I'll start behaving myself I promise. At least I will try. Sometimes being good is so very difficult. Thank you Azalea for noticing me.
