AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the humorous concept of "thread killers" on a forum, where participants analyze who tends to end conversations with their posts. The top offenders identified include franznietzsche, Moonbear, and tribdog, with a playful tone suggesting a competition for the title of "thread killer." Participants debate the validity of counting last posts as a measure of thread-killing ability, arguing that it should be adjusted based on the total number of posts each user has made. The conversation shifts into a light-hearted narrative, likening thread-killing to a horror movie scenario, with participants playfully accusing each other of sabotaging discussions and attempting to "steal" the thread. The banter includes references to fictional scenarios involving dramatic rescues and humorous characterizations, maintaining a light and comedic atmosphere throughout.

If you have a job available in the dairy barn, I can arrange my regular work schedule to fit. :biggrin: (Surely you're not going to waste an opportunity like this on milking machines...)

I agree, you definitely have to go with the organic, all natural, hand-expressed-milk-product angle, it will gain a lot more acceptance with the crunchy granola crowd.

I guess plutonic is the plutonium based version of platonic? :biggrin: It's all through the thread and I finally snapped. :bugeye:

I'm ok now. Carry on. :redface:
Oops. Spelling and usage are two of my weakest points. I've improved (believe it or not), but I'm still really bad at both. :redface:

Plutonic is the way I become when I am displayed with a beaver snout for a nose!



Actually, it's pretty cute. :smile:

It sure would go a long way toward shutting up the anti-dairy crowd! Afterall, it would address most of their concerns about using animals (we only use willing volunteers in our production), and arguments like cow's milk isn't meant for humans. And once we go co-op, asking all drinkers to take a turn working in the dairy barn, they'll never want crunchy granola again. :biggrin:

British boy finds snake in cereal box
How non-poisonous serpent got there being probed
Updated: 11:04 a.m. ET May 4, 2005LONDON - A British boy tucking into his breakfast had a nasty surprise when he discovered a two-foot long snake inside his box of cereal.

Jordan Willett, 5, thought he had found a toy when the serpent -- a harmless corn snake -- slithered out of the packet of "Golden Puffs" his parents had bought from discount store Netto in Telford, central England.
I am one of the "plutonic" PF members too. Sometimes when I spell check I click on change instead of ignore, and then end up with really weird things if I don't do a second proof reading. I don't remember the term for the kind of humor that it is, but a friend of mine and I use to write notes back and forth in class in which we would substitute words (for example intercourse for intersection) to get a laugh from the other. Maybe it caused me to develop a bad habit subconsciously? No doubt it would have been helpful if I had been paying attention in class. :rolleyes:

A two foot snake in the corn flakes! I'd have heart failure.

It's funny because everyone except me has been spelling it plutonic. I was beginning to wonder if it was an inside joke and I'd been left out. :cry: In my old age I've noticed that I've started misspelling common, everyday words that I know how to spell. :frown:

:smile: That's right--it's a disease. :bugeye: I should have started my confession like Alcoholics Anonymous "Hi, my name is SOS, and I am a plutonic member." So if you see it in a post that you reply to, you type it the same way, and of course spell check will not alert you because it is not misspelled--for plutonic. But the more I think about Evo's definition of a plutonic member, the funnier it becomes. :smile:

This morning I woke up with 50 minutes to the bus and still managed to do my laundry in addition to everything else and did not miss the bus.
 
  • #4,112
Well, actually, it was probably more like an hour to the bus. But the laundromat is a few blocks away and it takes a few minutes just to walk there. It was a great feat.

That is impressive! Were you on your bike? If so, I assume you had your laundry in a back pack or something? Ah, to be so young with so much stamina--it is good that you recognize what a wonderful thing this is. :smile:
 
  • #4,114
No, I had way too much laundry for a bike. I filled a barrel... wait a minute... about 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall (canvas barrel). Probably like 30-50 pounds of laundry.
 
  • #4,115
Basically I leaped out of bed, gathered the laundry, brought it to the laundromat, came back for the detergent, started the load, went back (apt. on 3rd floor), took a shower &c, retrieved the laundry, put the laundry to dry, leaped on my bike and just made the bus (actually I had 2 or 3 minutes leeway).
 
  • #4,116
Every stage was an applied test of razor's-edge time management. For example I used the bike to bring the detergent down, and then left it on the ground floor for when I would need it in 45 minutes. When I took my shoes off (they slip on and off, they have elastic on them) after starting the load I made sure they were right in front of the door so I would waste no time. I had socks but did not use them until the very end, to save time. I have a water filter that is very slow, and I started that before the shower, so that I could fill a water bottle half an hour later without having to wait. In the final sprint by bike to the bus I was momentarily thwarted by a stoplight... so I spontaneously took a right turn onto the sidewalk for a different route.

This fall we will be voting for a new "funniest member award". This is going to be really tough. Artman, Danger, Zoobyshoe, Huckleberry, SOS, DocToxyn, Moonbear, MIH, BicycleTree, Cronxeh, BobG, etc... I have to nominate members that I think deserve the award. How will I choose? How will I ever decide?

I think I've been there before! Isn't that the house on the hill between Joe's feed barn and the sideways flying cat sanctuary? I passed by there on my way to see the world's largest cheesewheel. When I worked for Guinness World records I was assigned to measure the cheese wheel in Neillsville, WI and Berlin, Ohio to see which one would get the record for largest. Although the talking cow claimed otherwise, neither of the two cheesewheels is largest.

The largest cheese wheel is in fact in my basement. If you would like to see it send me a letter to let me know you're coming.

Write to...

if you see a histerically cracking up guy sitting on a 2nd floor of the library building, holding Differential Equations in one hand and trying to type this letter in the other, with random psychotic outbursts of laughter with a halftone of panic and despair..

that could be me

I have the same reaction any time I even get near differential equations.

I can't divulge too much in such a highly competitive scenario, but I think I better make preparations to send chocolates and more. Between now and fall, the temperatures will rise, I may become more grouchy (I hate heat rash under my melons), and bribery will be all that is left. :cry: :devil:

lets see..

undetermined coeff with
f(t) = e^r^tP(t)cos(\omega t) + e^r^tQ(t)sin(\omega t)

its not really hard.. but writing out the equation to find particular solution.. i think I've stopped recognizing what letters and numbers mean after not sleeping for a day now :zzz:


oh i should write something philosophical down.. i think few more days and ill start tripping :-p

Okay, good. And that will be a weekly delivery until the end of the year?

Can you turn the melons around so they don't get so much sun on one side?

Didn't someone say that breast milk tastes like melon juice? What kind of melons are we talking about here?

Plural? Is she going into competition with us, or is this an anatomical anomaly that I would be fascinated by?

They wouldn't last very long if you left them out in the factory packaging. The sterile containers preserve freshness and protect the melons from the elements and unwanted melon squeezers.

edit Oh, you weren't talking about melons at all. You should talk to Danger and art if you are looking for beavers. It's their business.
