Regarding the like/reply change, can we have instead a ratio of likes over replies? So instead of 12 likes and 5 replies, you get a 2.4?

Well MrsTobinL is Canadian and we did stuff in America on Canada Day, so I guess that makes it a fair trade?

My cats are doing fine, but our dog has become sensitive the last few years and isnât loving tonightâcan I admit her new nickname is Nanny Dog?
Maybe that was where your internet-gif-legend title came from?
Iâm assuming Rob altered your profile in some way to add that honorific, although, itâs obviously gone now⌠who else could we ask?
Also, shouldnât we organise a game or some kind of election to bestow user card badges on worthy commenters?
Wouldnât I first nominate @othermichael for his services to gamedom? Probably something we can all agree on?
Waitaminute, who were we going to send to the boingboing-super-awesome-convention? Shouldnât they get a badge? Also @japhroaig for creating the scholarship? Would âEndowment Bequeatherâ suffice? Or perhaps âChefâ?

O crap, did I forget about creating the nominating game? Didnât that makes my stomach hurt?

Has anyone ever given @japhroaig a hole in the ground? Couldnât we then say he was well-endowed?

Quick story then the question: I came home early last night from a group of revelers at 9:45 or so, already being âfunned outâ; so I hear this morning from my wife (who has a giant glass of water and a clutch of aspirin) that they ended up at a club of ill repute at 1:30amâto which I ask, " was it the super, super shitty looking strip club down the way that we always make fun of?". ââŚyesâ.
âWas it filled with the disappointment, angst, bitterness, loneliness, and cotton candy scented body spray that we talked about?â. â⌠YesâŚâ
And isnât there only one thing I can really say (besides thank dog I came home early)?

How did she know where they ended up? She wasnât part of that wayward crowd herself, was she?
Perhaps the answer lies in the question: was the aspirin for her, or you?
Heh, neither of us are wild or rowdy, but have I mentioned I am the one that goes to bed early, and she is the one with the aspirin?
(And my chain of not being suckered into one of those places by well meaning but drunk friends remains unbrocken for double digit years?)
