You can, but it won't help. Better get the money back guarantee!

I prefer to maim them so they can't run away. Then I toy with them a while until I get overexcited and accidentally bite their heads too hard.

Sometimes at 3AM the Word Association thread is the only one that's getting business ...

Well, of the 25 most recent threads I've posted to, I didn't start any of them and in two, mine has been the last post. Going by that sample, I am obviously dangerous to the health of a thread. 8% of all threads infected by me sicken and die. I imagine no one will post to this one ever again. Ever.

I know you have like a 2 hour commute to that job of yours LJ, but isn't 3AM a little early to be starting the day?

Or were you getting up in the night for a pee and a drink of water, and just thought you would check to see if Wolf is pulling a graveyard shift?

Chimmi is fine by me. I'm just glad I am not the only death bringer.

that is actually a pretty large slice, considering the age of the thread, and your tenure here.

it's a guilty pleasure at best

Thread Killer?

Remember threads have feelings too. They feel pain.
