We have intercepted several of your Flood Control communiques. We believe these messages are coded to provide instructions to operatives acting on your behalf in seeking to overthrow the state.We demand you halt and desist in propagating these messages. Failure to do so will result in something unpleasant. We don't know what. But it will be unpleasant. How unpleasant? Think coming home from a long vacation and discovering you had forgot to put out the trash containing leftovers unpleasant. If that is not unpleasant enough for you, we can be more unpleasant. We represent a large group of very unpleasant people. This is a warning.

Yes, that kind of unpleasant. Are you a member of our organization. Would you like to be? quote: bL, are you feeling unwelcome? Because we can address that condition ...
This is not relevant. All that matters is the Damn Flood Control. It must stop. Or there will be consequences. Like the type of unpleasantness illustrated above.

Mandos isn't here right now. I don't know when he'll be back. Sometimes we talk, and then we don't talk for a while. But then we always talk again, and then we stop for a while. It's hard to explain, but I don't think it has "consequences." Pleasant or unpleasant: well, that's another hard one for me, because it can be pleasant in different kinds of ways, y'know? There's the straightforward way, and then there's the schadenfreude kind of way, and then there are the other ways. It's like, um -- ah, what was the question? Damn flood control.

Michelle, I really think you're going to have to constructively dehire bein' Lucid. I mean, deeply opposed though I remain on principled and ideological grounds to his worldview, I will admit to having felt some grudging admiration at first for a worthy opponent. But just look at what's happened to this thread. I thought he'd been delegated to impose some discipline: you call this disciplined? It's wandering all over the place ... Meanwhile, bein' Lucid seems to have wandered himself, over to some thread about hippie enlightenment, where he's maundering on about being a Unitarian and apparently having an identity crisis or something. You expect us to engage in heroic resistance against a creampuff colonial governor like that? Piffle.

O plenty of foreplay -- tho' it's not always required . "It ain't what you do/it's the way that you do it/that's what gets results." Whatever happened to Bananarama, anyway? Ahead of their time, I say. [ October 16, 2001: Message edited by: 'lance ]

Full circle is back to the initial warning about flood control.You call yourselves revolutionaries? Revolutionaries do not care about typing speed. Revolutionaries concern themselves with greater issues like flood control. I have warned the battle authorities about this flood control to no avail. They pretend they do not hear. Now it is time for a taste of the unpleasantness that will follow if action is not taken immediately. The following unpleasantness is only mildly unpleasant. Unpleasant enough to get the attention of the babble authorities. Not so unpleasant as to wreak permanent damage. Beware the unpleasantness:

Didja see Shatner's "I Am Canadian" rant on Just for Laughs a while ago? Brilliant, whether or not he wrote it.Best part -- his "I! Don't! Speak! Every! Word! Like! A! Sentence!" Brought the house down. Or "I've acted at Carnegie Hall in New York! The Royal Albert Hall in London! And the extinct Monkton Theatre in NDG!"

quote: SILENCE! I will not have my employees maligned by the likes of Skdadl. One more outburst like that from you, and I will be forced to hack into babble's administrator function, and program "Disco Duck" to play continuously whenever the babble window is open.
Bah. And BAH! again, I say. You wouldn't be so tough -- or fascist -- were you not at Queen's. You're bluffing anyway, and I'm calling it, but even if you're not, bring it on! We're tougher than you, and besides it'll only lead to escalation. Yes -- I'm coding a virus, which I'll implant in the next PM you get -- not necessarily from me. The instant you open it, your sound card will cycle randomly among "Yummy Yummy Yummy (I've Got Love In My Tummy)," "You Can't Rollerskate in a Buffalo Herd," (I'm not making that up -- I couldn't), "The Battle of New Orleans," "The Ballad of the Green Berets," and some Britney Spears to be determined later, every time you turn your computer on or off, log onto the net, or even so much as move your mouse. Forewarned!

See your Nelson and Iglesias, raise you a Charles Aznavour and a Max Bygraves. quote: How dare you speak to the leader like that you babble authoratarian.
Authoritarian? Rubbish. It's the Babble Authoritories, comfortably ensconced in their Babbleburo, or swanning around on bourgeois water-craft, who have become the authoritarians. Once revolutionaries themselves, they've become -- counter-revolutionaries! Bad music, computer viruses and tickling are the People's Tactics! To the barricades, babble proletarians! You have nothing to lose but your Flood Control! You have a board to win!
