Yeah, sourwookie: "no, don't call us; we'll call you".

[sourwookie -- to be clear, I was entirely joking as well. No hard feelings at all!].

But yeah, this sounds like it could be a lot of fun.

I'd go but I work that day. Come on down to Northgate and I'd say hi to ya'll.

Wow. Being under 21 hurts and all, but right now it hurts extra hard.

There was one poster in particular who was naming different specific gas stations or restaurants in his/her area that had great tasting Pepsi (or Coke, or whatever). It's not this thread, and I've looked through all the threads that came up when I searched "Styrofoam". But I'm sure I saw it here. Anyone else remember it?

When you track him down, give him five bucks and have him post them himself.

I think that was sort of the idea, wasn't it?

Well, there's this comment from cortex, the new modernator:

Sounds like "converstation [that] was quoted and responded to by another poster" = "personal back-and-forth", perhaps? I'm not sure; I haven't seen the deleted comments in question. Just speculating.

Long live the modernator!

I think you could have phrased that better, so that it would have had a more definite answer, as opposed to "I like this and this, what about you?". Possibly something like "I am working on putting together a class about good and bad radical audio and want some examples of excellent This American Life episodes". I think (matt, jess?) that this would have been more kosher.

If it is, and if it's cool with the admin folks, I will post it for you in a... [more]

Yeah, Rhomboid's Greasemonkey works a treat for seeing deleted threads. A++, would use to gawk at deleted threads again.

In a related vein, I get sick of "omg I just left [food] out for [20 minutes - 24 hours] without being refrigerated. Can I eat it!?!?!?!?!".

Oh, this isn't the place to air our grievances?

shit.

Hell, I'll do it. It'll be all classical trombone recordings, almost none of which are public domain, and it will be recorded on my $80 Sony mic, but hey, my teacher is always telling me to record myself more often anyway.

But wait - on preview - is it kosher to make an album of previously composed music? I can't quite tell.

Actually, cortex, that's the thing - I'm not my own man.

Oh, wait a second. Shoot. I've got things horribly wrong.

OP for the Hillary post here. I was wondering whether or not the thread would get axed, and I decided to check it again an hour after posting to see. Sure enough...

Yes, it was sort of silly, and given the history of complaints about Barack threads, I can understand why it was deleted. So no hard feelings towards #1 or #2 (not the pooping #2, the other one). I thought (/hoped) it would be a little more blue-worthy due to the groundbreaking nature of Hilary being the... [more]

Incidentally, I apparently don't follow my own advice, as I had meant to put the second paragraph in this first comment. Obviously, I botcheded it.

Fair enough. Maybe it was the Christmas carols that were getting to me.

Thank you, Logboy, for your hard work over there. Merry Christmas.

...and may you all come home soon...

I would appreciate if you'd concentrate your remaining time on MetaFilter, brief though it may possibly be, learning to punctuate properly.

OK. Well, since it seems to be within the guidelines of Metafilter but well received by this sample audience, it will go unposted.

But goodnewsfortheinsane, that's a fantastic comment. Kudos.

...some Seattle meFites are just ever so slightly below the drinking age. Oh well; perhaps we're not supposed to be able to have fun for a couple more years anyway.

Thanks for all the input, folks. I didn't realize that it would turn into a 62-comment extravaganza! Right now I'm using Georgia again, after a slight detour a couple of months ago with Trebuchet.

Ack -- I'm sorry. As I was typing those two words, it dawned on me that searching for "uno lost" wouldn't be such a bad idea. It worked, and I found the links I was looking for (below, for reference). Jessamyn/Mathowie: you guys can delete this or leave it up for public spectacle or whatever.

Sorry again...

Gee, thanks. Did I miss that, or did you just do some secret MeFi voodoo to invoke it?
