More proof that Jenn is Cool Enough. >what are you quoting, Jenn? Michael doesn't read his own forum! Actually, that would be perhaps the only advantage to that new forum idea, since it would be easier to see all new posts. Self has to go by any additions to the post number at the top of the forum, then scroll down to check any posts for the most recent dates. Anyway, this is from Jenn's post at the end of the "New Brainchild" thread (after your see), no doubt as an insightfully witty meta-comment on both Florida weather and your ramblings about the Toon-O-Matic: "Oooooh. I think I see what's happening now. Didn't you read the warning label on the back of the cranberry juice bottle? I know it's small, but I'm pretty sure it says something about 'combining with Cuba Libres and titanium may cause atmospheric disturbances up to and including gale force winds and hurricanes'." And the cranberry juice thing was from your own comments early in that thread: "What goes on behind the scenes is really pretty simple. I write the toon in XML, then print it out and burn it with incense in a pentagram I have drawn in chalk on the rooftop terrace. (I used to have to use the basement floor, and the smoke was kind of nasty.) The vibrations in the ether induced by this process are refracted through a number of prisms I have carefully carved and ground in the shape of Soviet-era statuary and Easter Island heads, and the beam is focussed on a sheet of hammered titanium and fixed with a light spray of cranberry juice." Where would you people be without me?

Michael Wed Oct 6 12:01:45 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery > Where would you people be without me? Oy. With my tongue less firmly in my cheek, apparently. Jenn quoted the Marlboro man, then I changed his posting, and then I innocently asked Jenn what she was quoting. Oh, never mind.

Emsworth Wed Oct 6 12:35:35 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery Your "I don't get it.. whatr are you quoting" appeared under neath Jenn's "cranberry juice" line, and so didn't make much sense (and besides, the spam message has always been the same, and still exists elsewhere on the forum, so the joke would really only work if you changed *all* of the posts). Pardon for being obtuse again, but really, what do you expect when you constantly attempt to toy with us like this? I am glad that gopher's hurricane gun concept is now an official part of Toonbots lore, though. (Gopher and I had noticed the change, and were surprised, as you seemed quite tolerant of the guy. Perhaps it's because this time he was interrupting your SCMUF plans).

Perhaps it's because this time he was > interrupting your SCMUF plans). It's mostly because (1) he posted again after Jenn responded to this one, i.e. twice in one day and (2) my overall energy level is higher and thus it's much easier to cross that crucial threshold of, you know, actually doing something.

mouse Wed Oct 6 17:48:12 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery drat. and here i was hoping cigarette guy had actually come up with a sense of humor....or at least had started to sell something useful.

Jenn Tue Oct 12 17:52:10 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery > drat. and here i was hoping cigarette guy had actually come up with a > sense of humor....or at least had started to sell something useful. Hrm. Cigarette guy acquires sense of humor ($13.95 with delivery). Cigarette guy posts more often than Jenn (recently declared Cool Enough, though with the subtitle "Utterly Clueless"). Is the logical conclusion to this stream that we should offer cigarette guy a position in the Jihad?

Emsworth the Endless Tue Oct 12 20:36:18 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery > Is the logical conclusion to this stream that we should offer cigarette > guy a position in the Jihad? Of course. I've had trouble investing in new dummies/decoys for the wolverines to shred to pie..., err play affectionately with. (To Jenn: Shipping of materials delayed. Ignore all suspicious burgundy envelopes. Should personages inquire about whether the documents have been sent, write the password "pickled beets" in cranberry juice on a postcard, and pass to the right party. Stay buttoned up until you hear from the agency. Say nothing to Mother Mao.)

Jenn Wed Oct 13 08:08:35 2004 Obscurity FREE with delivery! You know...people with long term memories astound me. I had completely forgotten there was a listing at the bottom of the page. I had also forgotten about being smartly trimmed. What a pleasant surprise! (Nearly everything is a surprise for me) > (To Jenn: Shipping of materials delayed. Ignore all suspicious burgundy > envelopes.

Michael Tue Oct 12 22:26:50 2004 Re: Hurricane gun $13.95 with delivery > Cigarette guy posts more often than Jenn (recently declared Cool Enough, > though with the subtitle "Utterly Clueless"). No, dear, you're "Smartly Trimmed with Richly Grained Leatherette." And you currently account for 8.3% of the forum, whereas mcity4 is at only 1.3%. You win. > Is the logical conclusion to this stream that we should offer cigarette > guy a position in the Jihad? I kind of already gave him an honorary title. You know, as long as I was in there monkeying with the Grim Thread Reaper.

More proof that Jenn is Cool Enough. (hear hear!) [[[> > > > [stuff about $13.95, with delivery] ]]] [[> > > [stuff about cranberry labels] ]] [> >what are you quoting, Jenn?] > [stuff about cranberry labels] The funny thing is, one could try to make a case that the confusion here is the quote-o-matic's fault, as it has suppressed the text in actual question. Or that said suppression is why Michael must ask.
