Wow. Do you know that feeling when a backround-noise is annoying you and then it stops....

...and it takes you a while to realize it is gone, because you had built up a tolerance to it and learned to ignore it?

It starts with a feeling that something is weird, you can't quite put your finger on it, and suddenly you realize what it is. And then you check, and yes, it is actually gone, and you're like "holy crap, I thought it would never....".

I just had such a moment

Rumor has it, DU is missing a source of word-salad.

I had the person on ignore too. Guessed this was who the OP was about, so went to my ignore list to check.

Not to mention non-star members.

Trolling the hosts' forum is what did him in. Coincidentally, that's what did lozocolo in.
