Dear Administrator

CPound

The America vs Europe forum is messed up. I think it's because Katja [;)] forgot to insert an open or close quote tag. I'm not sure. Can you fix? Thanks!

Fixed. That was weird.

I really, really hope we see the qutoting problem fixed when I upgrade ...

Menzel

Yes, blame Katja :P

I just hope we'll upgrade. Besides, I think it was CPounds fault. I am perfect... [;)]

Soon. I looked @ CommunityServer.org and noticed they are on RC2. Full release can't be too far behind ...

In the meantime, let's watch our opening and closing quote tags...Katja!

LOL

Vitani

can't we just stick RC2 on until the full version is out?

CPound

Vitani has a good point. Let's go beta. I second the vote.

I had to some customization to get this working for what I want ... different home page, mapping of old links (there are a lot, even in my old posts), adding a new sort order (by Thread date), and a few other things ...

I don't have much free time, either. And when I do have free time, I'd rather work on my other hobby site, this isn't fun at all to maintain. So, I'd prefer to do it once instead of twice.

This is literally the best thread in the entire forum.

Gotta love the days when not closing tags was a Bad Thing.

I'm shocked and amazed by the amazingly shocking fact that Discourse imported non-closed tags without fartshitting all over itself.

a.k.a. Sharting.

only if you want.
Personally, digital sharting may be more enjoyable than irl sharting...

Time for another construction story:

Only read on if you want to read a funny story about someone shitting themselves

Back in the day I used to have a policy of taking an hour lunch on Fridays versus the half hour we normally took, so we could go someplace that took a little longer and we could all relax for a bit.

We were working on the southside of town, and all the guys wanted to go to Hooters. Fine, even though their food sucks and this particular part of town did not have much in the way of talent. We go in, none of the girls are what you wanted to see in a Hooters outfit. I remark to the new guy on the crew that I was training that I almost never ate there because it always caused digestive difficulty and he starts giving me a hard time for being old. Yeah, fuck off newbie.

About an hour out of lunch, he is down in the ditch laying pipe and I am in the excavator and he turns around and gives me a very odd look. He didn't even have to say a word.

Me: "You better get moving to the Port-O-Let, it is on the other side of the jobsite."

I know you think you can, but you really cannot imagine the sheer look of terror on a person's face when they feel a megashit working its way down the turnpike and they are trying to climb a 15' ladder.

He takes off walking towards the Port-O-Let as fast as he can, because you really can't run when you have to shit really badly...then he stops for a moment...and continues walking differently than before. Yes folks, it was the "Shitty pants shuffle".

When he comes back, I ask him, "Are you going to give me shit about being old again?"

"Fuck Hooters and their food. None of those girls looked good enough in shorts for that."
