Hmm. On the archived past week, I don’t have a comment box, and the last post I see there is Eddurd’s “Crypt of Terrier” joke (by the way, Ed, a terrier that size couldn’t have crypt in there without making enough noise that we’d already know about it).
I’d noticed that on my home computer before, but I had assumed it was because my home compuer is decrepit. If it’s happeing on my laptop too, maybe there’s some bug in the site?

This story arc is twisting my mind. I saw an email ad for a decoration called a ‘hammered metal dog’ and I immediately added a drunken robot canine to my mental list of the denizens of this basement.
He’s not eating anyone, he’s just sitting off to the side, crying quietly to himself. He was composing sonnets in his mind and is just a little too tipsy to find a good rhyme for ‘oxidation’, which is bumming him out.

Uff. Just for the record, this is exactly the sort of pilisophical standpoint I despise. ‘all is a circle- this is how it is’ sort of #@$%.
FOR ONE THINg nature is hardly so linear and fragile. Mr. Giant rat, you fail for me. Fight it Tip! Fight it.

Jeffrey Channing Wells (channing) says: Silentspeaker: To my chagrin, WCN just hates certain versions of Internet Explorer. I don’t know if that’s the browser you’re using, but it sounds very much like you’re hitting the MSIE thing. If so, using Firefox or something might solve this problem for you, if you’re comfortable with that and have the hard drive space to spare. If you’re not on MSIE, I have no suggestions other than to take it up with Joey Manley. Sorry! 🙁

We all have a place in the cycle. Some of us are big wheels, some are spokespersons, some are the framework that holds everything together, and some just provide support (even if the one you support is just a big ass).

Is it a tarpit trap? Or just a part for Tip and the rat?
Sorry. 😀

Mel Van Weelden (kessalia) says:
I wonder if the person who brought up a tarpit in the first place even realized it was ‘tip rat’ backwards? If so they are far far more clever than me, I just figured it out reading other posts. *L*

It started earlier this week, and whoever brought it up did realize that “Tarpit, Tip, Rat” is a palindrome.
