  • It's not doing well, though. Vote! 17000 registered and as many lurkers. In theory, shouldn't be any trouble. In theory.
  • Monkeys in'04!!!
  • They'd be nothing without Monkeyfilter. NOTHING! *Drinks out of cheap whiskey bottle in paper bag, falls over, wets self, weeps*
  • According to this current MetaTalk thread, some of the members are REAL members...
  • If anyone has the email address of the people postint to the Metafilter post, could you point out to them that it's eighth in ALPHABETIC ORDER, not in order of preference. Jeeze!
  • "postint" is the old English version.
  • Prithee, squire, might I be so humble as to ask your kind self what thou 'rt postint?
  • sorry path. mefi also happened to be in 8th place when i posted it. last i checked mefi is moving into 6th place. go team.
  • I say we should exchange our votes for memberships in Mefi. I think i'm starting to show signs of anxiety. (Takes pills...)
  • Tracicle, thou hast caught me out. But, squire? I be a lady, or try to be, though it is trying in these days to keep the faith. The good lady Aleanore is locked up in the keep in Chinon, and I blame the Franks.
  • Hey, I am listing in the Slimy Molluscs in the Ecosystem and wasn't nominated. Where's Harvey Weinstein when I need him. On a serious note. Talking Points Memo all the way. Josh Marshall is a political blogger that actually writes news storis and does reporting. The rest are linkers. Nothing wrong with that, but Marshall is in a different class. He really broke the Trent Lott story on his blog. He was ripped off by AP and not cited as a source for one piece he wrote about Lott.
  • If you would like to see "via Monkeyfilter" on Metatalk, go here.
  • Again, this mysterious MetaFilter, that doesn't seem nearly as much fun as MoFi. Are there people doing crazy stunts like this for no apparent reason whatsoever (apart from the fact that I found a good reason a dozen posts or so ago)? Huh? Answer me that Mister or Missus What-the-bleep-is-Bearguy-on?
  • BOO METAFILTER BOO!!! /throws a marshmallow.
  • Can't believe I thought path was a he.
  • At my age, it's much harder to tell.
  • *prepares campfire *hands path a marshmellow stick
  • /puts arms around path and Bluehorse. Hey ladies, care for some 'smores?
  • *plays harmonica*
  • *takes stick, pokes campfire *pokes Zanshin
