That Moment...

TMW moral ambiguity comes to the art of eating cookies.

 

Eating it alive is better?

 

IDK? Though who decides these things?

 

So dunking it is akin to waterboarding and my cookie jar is like a miniature version of Guantanamo Bay I keep on my fridge?

 

Well that took a dark turn...
Thank you, now I will be off of
cookies for a while until this
leaves my mind.

 

STOP. S T O P

 

You can hear the screams, they sound like the vampires from Blade!

 

TMW you discover that you don't have enough cheese to make the dinner that you've already started preparing.

 

That is no queso.

 

It is quite a cheddarble situation to find yourself in.

I writted a 1500 beauty. Where to go? I sent it to one inappropriate location, then to Canada. I'm not joking. My Canadian magazine 'currently not accepting submissions.' Unless you put the editor's name in the title. I am clever, Bob. Hey Bob!

Ehmm, notMcsweeneys, mmm,not 'college/Cracked,' mmmf, mooow.

 

TMW you have something great to post to a thread, but the most recent post is also yours and you've always thought two posts in a row by the same member is tacky unless a certain amount of time has elapsed since the first one, so you wait.

 

On another forum I belong to, that's known as "spreeing" and it's banned unless more than a week has passed.

 

I've never been anyplace where it's banned. Mildly frowned upon if it starts to look like a full-on spree, but two posts in a row generally hasn't ruffled many feathers in my other hangouts.

 

We don't have an issue with it here, as long as you're not doing it deliberately to bump a thread or make it look busy or whatever.

Visited another forum years ago where "double-posting" or "multi-posting" was very much frowned upon. It either got deleted or you got a lot of hate from people in consecutive posts...

 

What?

 

Double what??

 

Triple what???

 

It was a much more relaxed forum (probably because it was much smaller) to be fair, so if you broke a rule, you just got a mod asking you to not do that. Only spambots got banned.

 

It's funny the things individual forums espouse as cultural facets. @ChickenFreak (I think it was CF) taught me about HIPPO, which for a while I thought was a general concept on forums because I tend to be oblivious to these kinds of things, but it appears it was pretty specific to a given venue of forums (parenting related) and not a *thing* in other realms.



TMW you realize you really, really, really overthink things.

 

And here I though HIPPO referred to a certain video that my 7-year-old nephew and I enjoyed together, quite to his mother's distress
