Lurkers: Post Once

No pressure. I just think it would be funny if you popped in, made one random comment, and then vanished back into the outer realms...

::disguised as lurker::

Every now and then I like to pretend I am an elephant.

Many lurkers do just that. The members list is enlightening.

Flint, you clearly do not understand the culture here.

Lurkers lurk. Every now and again one of them, after years of membership, decides they have something to say. Do not intimidate them into doing so. Actually, intimidating them into doing so has a probability of running them off.

This place is what it is, flint. You cannot remake it in your own image.

Wow! :::speechless::: Am I in the right thread? I figured people knew how to take things as a joke...

"intimidating" ??? That's some harsh language! "remake it in your own image" ??? What does that even mean?

:::slinks away with my tail between my legs::: I guess... I mean... seriously... Yes ma'am! You win, okay?

your little experiment failed, anyway. only one lurker posted.

do i make two? i am more or less a lurker. in the past, though, i was simply too drunk or stoned to write anything coherent, and usually passed out before hitting the post button.
