I love the smell of singularities on New Years Eve. Event Horizon-tastic!

I may be alone in this; but the whole "we ride in [image with numbers]" thing is kinda stupid.
HEY GUYZ!

I actually really liked item #3... it guarantees a particular group of people will not ride any rides I post. Which is way cool.

it's always helpful to dislike the same people who dislike you. It makes things so much less confrontational when you can avoid to quietly respect, and avoid eachother.
This group needs to sit down for a safety powwow and discuss the principals of group interactions under the guidlines of PLUR.

Easy to say, but how do we know to ignore them when they start out so enthusiastically, before they turn into a black hole of disappointment? Are there signals (besides a Trevor/John genesis) that will clue us in to the disaster they will become?
Also, agreed about those planning threads. I remember a recent thread about planning to buy headlights; it just went on and on and I stopped reading it. I can't believe people kept talking so much just about headlights.

A planning thread that I missed? What the hell? I must be losing my edge. I bet I could have increased the total number of pages by at least 2 or 3.

Hey now... I have a zero complaint factor for any ride I have ever planned.
Sometimes I bring spirits that might be a little strong for certain folks... not my fault that what I find a good swig causes projectile vomiting and crumpling to the ground in another person.
but the rides... the rides go cool wierd places.
