Oh dear! As you know franzbear is dead forever and more important than that Zz with his Disney thread's disappeared suddenly, so I guess we're very close to the end. So I just wanted to say goodbye to all of you before you disappear too!:bugeye:


Bye everyone:smile:

It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Zapper is on vacation. I am hoping the Disney thread will reopen when he returns.
 
The world is going to end by mass insanity.
 
06-06-06 is upon us.

Me too! I miss it.:frown:

But I wouldn't be the least bit sad if TKC 2 were to disappear. It has eroded into a silly chat room.

Hmmm...interesting.I wonder where all the hype has been about that date. There should've at least been a chainmail by now. Just 10 days to go.

I do and I don't. The first time it was funny. Now it's just a stale joke that people keep perpetuating because no one can come up with anything clever or new. More than anything, it's a flimsy excuse to keep the chat room environment going that was present in the original thread.

edit: oh, nevermind. I see that it has just bitten the dust.

Hey, it should have happened, 2000 years, ago, they had real 06,06,6
and our 06 is only abbreviation for 2006! :)

and besides, the world was about to end at least 7 times since I was born.
