Currently wondering...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Well you see there your mistake was in imagining that I have any knowledge at all of Adele's lyrics.

Very mainstream, that sort of mistake... :innocent: ...

Actually that's the one Adele line I know - because I remember thinking "wtf?" when I heard it - but I didn't get the potassium reference either :wink:

Where on earth the 'which band have I got tickets for now' (not exact title I know, but hey, it's not like I'm going to use the 'search' button now is it?) thread is. Am on page 9 and I can't locate it - I am just about to be bored by it. By page 12 I shall give up.

The Trash gets emptied on a regular basis. I think it even empties itself.

In other words, things don't stay in the trash very long before they completely disappear. (This is also the reason your post-count can go down as well as up.)

yep, when someone tries to view the trash folder it triggers a quick date check and it removes anything over 7 days old.

that's why if there's a really long thread like 'currently listening...' in the trash there can be a bit of a lag when someone tries to view it - the trash is deleting itself and reindexing post counts etc. with a long thread that can cause a small but perceptible delay in the page loading...

that's one of the reasons why we bin them at 1000 rather than let them grow and grow :)

How did the conversation start - were you talking about relatives and relations?

Currently wondering if I'm managed to drink sensibly enough to be in any fit state to get some more artwork done tomorrow.

We're going round to see some friends tomorrow night, and based on previous experiences this means that Sunday is a write-off.

I don't drink all that much, really...and yet I manage to get nothing of any consequence done, ever. :(

It's difficult - work, life, and age drain the life from you. 20 years ago I'm sure I could drink myself stupid, party till the early hours, then get up early the next day and do 100 things.

These days I'm lucky if I can make breakfast.
