It's the land of confusion. You're wreaking havoc on the board again. I signed on yesterday and said "who's Drinks with George" and then today... "what the hell, who's Dr. Ew?" I should have known.....lol I was confused about the curse thing as well.

"The Curse" is a phenomenon that seems to occur on some of the many-paged threads, like the Name Change threads. It seems like after a thread reaches a certain number of pages, maybe it's the threads with a lot of pics in siggies that need to download, I dunno... but what happens is when you are the last person to post on a particular page, your post gets hung up and the next page will not show up until after a delay, and a few other posts have been entered. Then they all show up.

| In fact...it just happened to me. My previous response vanished after I posted it. Very interesting phenomenon.

It hasn't happened the whole thread. Just the last 3 pages or so. Anyways... a story... I was sitting in the library on my very last day of Spring Break. I was nice and peacefully using a research database in the empty computer section of the room and some dude comes and sits right next to me. I don't look up, but I can hear him panting. It was so loud I had to look because I thought he was wearing an oxygen mask and waiting on a lung transplant list. He wasn't. So, for the next hour I have this dude sitting next to me, panting, stretching, and GRUNTING while looking at sports websites, talking on his phone, and listening to headphones so loud I could hear his music. Finally I got so annoyed I left. In conclusion, this is why I hate people.

Pfft. I'll join Denise in the anagram club. It was a difficult choice, though. Other contenders included "Nerd, enmity of Gap" and "Damn Freeing Typo".
