If someone was really annoying serious thread users, maybe a moderator could electronically lock that individual to specific threads?

Could we have an unutterable jail?

Madame Z, you seem to be the only one who 'gets it'.

That was my intent......the outrage shown in reference to thread hijackers by some is very much like the outrage shown in the story.

We must control our peoples actions!

What better way than to brand them with scarlet letter?

The poll should have been multiple choice. I would have clicked them all.

This one looks rather nice, too. Do you think it would go best with some ice cream?

Do you ever wonder how they get that 'swirly' on the inside?

I wonder if there is a special pan, or something.

I still stand by
"this is the internet after all short attention span is the mark of a good website."

getting back to being on topic about being off topic.

*Sigh!* DesertSweetie, this thread is not about baking. You are the thread starter, so you definitely should know. What shall I do with you people?

desertgrandma · 03-30-2009, 12:17 PM

Thank you, Ravenne. My shame is now out there for all to see.

I am proud, proud I say!, to flaunt my indiscretions..........

If you want to flaunt indiscretions, then there are lots of places for doing that on the interwebs...

Really? How would an upstanding respected Dr./citizen such as yourself know about that?
