Forum stuff

I changed the design of the Forums, because the old layout wasn't displaying properly in Firefox, and was taking for-freaking-ever to load.

So.

Don't be too alarmed.

I'm sure you weren't too alarmed. Just wanted to let you know that the change was intentional.

Still have a big blank box just under the "Home / Calendar / Gallery / etc" links, which is the other thing I'd noticed.

EDIT: Not that it matters, just thought I'd let you know.

Huh. Anyone else?
Mine's displaying fine.

Okaaaay, well it's gone now. Maybe I just needed to close and re-open the page or something.

The pastelly purple makes me feel super manly.

I read a study that proves that this particular shade of purple actually increases the libido.

I'm 100% sure that such is unneccessary in my case.

I am less than 100% sure I was not lying just now.

There are lots of things one can do while lying.

I am less than 100% sure I was not lying just now.

You have totally succeeded in confusing me. I would like to think that "I am not sure I was not lying" translates to "I am sure I was lying" but the whole percentage thing throws me for a loop. If you are, for example, 95% sure that something didn't happen, then are you 5% sure that it did? "Less than 100%" strongly implies near 100%, which means you aren't very sure at all that you were lying. Which means you probably weren't!

*sigh* I have to stop overthinking things.

It implies nothing.

That just says she could be anywhere from certain she was lying to slightly in doubt of the truth of her statement.

I know that logically it implies nothing, but humans tend to phrase things certain ways when they mean certain things. That's all I meant.

Anyway I just figured out (OK, Paul figured out) the blank rectangle. Before you log in, there is a banner ad, which firefox & adblock are blocking for me. (I'm new to adblock, so not yet used to seeing big empty spaces).

The reason for the phrasing was to mirror the preceding statement without admitting anything definite.

Since a lie is a deliberate untruth, however, people are generally certain about whether or not it is a lie, which would lead one to believe that your first instinct was correct.

And, actually on topic:
Aw crap, everything has gone wonky again.

Yeah, the only thing that's really wonky on my end is that the blog appears to be down.

Y'know, I'm tempted to find another forum/blog host. But 'cept I'd really hate to lose the posts and stuff we have now.

SIGH.

And yes, most of the time I don't not communicate like 'most people'. Somewhere between 45% of the time and 87% of the time, I refuse to not be entirely comprehensible.

My own statements weren't meant to be thoroughly examined any more than Jill's were. It was a joke.

And here's what *my* screen is doing now:

Not sure if that will show up properly, so here's the link: http://picasaweb.google.ca/lh/photo/wMqwocnBw8uKwsWC4FFvaQ?feat=directlink

That's really weird. Mine sure isn't doing that.
What happens if you turn *off* the ad blockers? Or use a different browser?

Jilly is perfectly comprehensible. You just gotta talk 'Wierdo Power Geek Chick.'

It makes sense to me.

(s)narf!

Or you have to understand fanboy

But analyzing stuff to death is fun.

This new setup works for now.

The new setup is continually changing. I kinda like this whole little angel skulls thing...

Yeah, this is cool.
I like its version of the memberlist.

The forum seems to work fine in all configurations for me. I like the new looks but reading the white writing on black background hurts my eyes. Can we personalize how we see it in our own profile?

Jill does not regularily speak fanboy, but she does know the language as she seems to collect fanboys. And she does occasionally use the language to express her shameless joy at the power geek items she truly loves.

Dave: not to my knowledge.
