Is DU fucked today or does everyone have me on ignore?
I've been trying to PM several people... and can't.

So does everyone hate me? I can't believe that - I'm so lovable.

So what's the deal?

Khash.

1. We're at Level 3... maybe that has something to do with it?
I dunno.

2. DU's normal functions sometimes aren't working today due to heavier
than normal posting traffic - people are pissed off and upset about what's happening in New Orleans today.

3. I love you. But you could use a breath mint.
:P

Whaaaa? It's just a suggestion.

8. Jimmy is flirting with me :)
If I had a breath mint, I'd break it in half and share it with you. Not that you need it it, but it'd be kind of a sweet thing to do.

I have button with a pic of a cat that says "If I had a mouse, I'd share it with you". For some reason, it always reminds me of you. In a good way - I'm not implying you eat rodents :)

Khash.

10. I have tried to PM you for months
and always been told I can't. I do occassionally jump all over your ass, but only because I love you. This post was kind of a joke, but I really did think you had me on ignore for the longest time... seriously.


Khash.

11. You are greatly mistaken my darling Peggy
WISH you'd ignore me? Never.

There are certain people I depend on here - and you are one of them.

12. Considering your cat Jeoffry
Tell him that I shall kiss him in kindness
and that we shall brisk about the life


(First time I read that I laughed so hard I literally threw up... I could not quit laughing - but sad too, poor old Chris Smart was in an insane asylum when he wrote it and they were burning cats alive and he wanted to prove Jeoffry was a Christian....)

Khash.
(Didn't think I'd get that reference, did ya, suckah?)

16. The reference was for you...
I expected you to get it.

Suckah??? Maybe so, if nostalgic laughter qualifies.

13. I'd never ignore you, but there seems to be a level of traffic
such as I've never seen in my year at DU, and it has caused the temporary removal of almost every feature I can think of.

15. I've been here for a few years and never seen anything like it
I've made the bandwidth argument over and over and everyone said I was wrong. Well, sadly, I'm proven right.

The overwhelming use of bandwith is even more sadly due to the current catastrophe. And what a small word catastrophe is in comparison to the reality.

So I'm wasting bandwidth... because we need a break, we need to be silly and pointless. Even in the midst of horror life goes on. It must or we can't handle the horror. And I can't cry anymore.... I can't.

Khash.

24. I programmed my Outlook calendar long ago to pop up with a
reminder every 15 minutes to look for your posts, and to ask about you if I didn't see your DU moniker.

But my Exchange Server went belly-up today, so I was forced to go without the regular pop-up reminders, which I usually use as a reminder to track you down and summarize your doings on DU in in hourly newsletter which I forward via PMs to an elite cadre of DUers who are also, coincidentally, your greatest fans! Acrobat format is also available upon request.

But as I said, the Exchange Server failed today and so did my khashka news service, hence the lack of appropriate attention to your on-line persona.

We're busy working on some contingency plans to prevent a recurrence of this debacle, we assure you!

27. Pardon me for this thread-jacking, but I have a question for swag....
How was your lunch today with Asthmatiorg...or however you spell it...

I hope you guys had some good food, and laughs, and all that...

And I hope that tomorrow, when I return to find my lost posts, that I remember writing this one here!

:cry:
