    @sharre Well, that’s the question, isn’t it? Me and the mods think chaos will reign, but some folks think it’ll be just fine.

    @witty_knitter Yeah, getting one of the other mods – not me or @gusseting – to do it. Hopefully today.

    @randomknits Ha, is it the chatty yarn identification game? Somehow I think that poster missed the point.

    @zephyrama Yeah, I just unlocked the thread to add a clarification that the goal wasn’t to encourage posting of utter crap.

    @zephyrama I also changed the name of palopinto’s thread. I thought it was funny, but it may have sent the wrong vibe.

    By the way, I really hope one of you makes a really vague post flogging @knitabulous’s shop. I’d do it but it would look unseemly. 😛

    @sharre Well, to play devil’s advocate… let’s make it! Make knitting posts! Drown out the crap! BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE! 😛

    @sharre Ha. Just what I was about to say. 🙂

    When the Australian Knitters movie gets made, I’d like to request Lindsay Lohan play me. Gives it that “Mean Girls” flavour.

    @zephyrama I can’t remember what you look like! But I’m getting a Janeane Garofalo vibe. Smart, dark-humour, and of course WICKEDLY MEAN. 🙂

    @imdominating Because I kissed the main Bosstone!

    First draft of mammoth spec is done. 46 pages. Now I can finally eat lunch.

    Self: turning down the Avril volume would be more effective at avoiding embarrassment if you didn’t still mouth the words. #bus #humiliation

    Homemade shepherd’s pie with cheesy leek crust, a la Delia. Feeling very domestic. YUM.

    @sedroknits Sorry to hear it. Condolences to you and your family.

    @runkeeper Great job! Setting it all up took like 2 seconds. Looking forward to next pro release… 🙂

    @Justacogitating Apparently you’ll be able to get them at Target next month… 🙂 http://bit.ly/17y7mP

    @carbolicious Traditionally it’s with coffee or tea, ding-dong. 🙂

    @zephyrama I don’t think it’s a sock puppet, given that she’s been a member for so long. Disappointing though.

    @bellsknits Trying to take the high road. My patience is pretty thin though…

    I probably should’ve kept my mouth shut.

    @zephyrama OH! I saw that and didn’t make the connection. 🙂

    @sharre It reminds me of that bit at the end of Phantom Menace where Obi-Wan has to wait for the forcefield to open… (I’M A NERD.)

    @sharre I’d do it, but I appear to have been designated the Good Mod today. *puke* Must keep up appearances.

    @zephyrama Hahahahaha… But you don’t look nearly moody enough. Can we have animated Ravatars? You could alternate between smile and frown.

    @KTunravels Person ignores rules. Mod pulls them up. Person gets huffy about MANNER of mod post. Troll attacks mod. Person still huffy.

    @KTunravels That’s the weird bit. Troll has only 4 comments, all in this thread, yet account dates back over a year. Most peculiar.

    Shoot. Not sure I’m going to make it to knitting tonight. Still working on this monster spec that I have to have finished by tomorrow.

    I get so much more done when the entire rest of the office is empty. Finally going home…

    That ridiculous Rav post is now closed for business. What babies.

    @redambition Go to AK forum on Rav. You’ll see it.

    @jannism HOLY CRAP. Nah, we’re in the middle of Sydney, like halfway across the country. 🙂

    I have to say, the Rubberneckers are actually really friendly when you talk to them! (But their stings, they can be sharp.)

    Making a slightly radical proposal to other AK mods. Why not give the masses what they want? Either it’ll all go to hell or it won’t.

    @Bex_the_Femme Actually I don’t know if I’ll be there. I’ve got a ton on tomorrow…. 🙁

    @balsamiq Brilliant! What a great gift on a sunny Friday morning. Installing right now. 🙂

    @witty_knitter Abuse will be the one rule still enforced. I’m just hearing from too many people afraid to post. (Yes, they’re chickens.)

    @witty_knitter Several ppl are complaining of overmoderation & are scared to post for fear of flack. Plan is month w/out mod (except abuse)

    I cannot take seriously a grown man carrying a Razor scooter.

    Congrats to @henrytapia on his engagement to Megan! (Wedding in Sydney, plz.)

    @bellsknits Depends how big the thing is and how much ease. In a Starmore, half a stitch out is nothin’. 🙂

    @krisalis Rain boots should work! (There’s a great bit in one of the Ramona books where she gets new rain boots.)

    @witty_knitter Where is it? I looked on the Letters page in the coffee shop but didn’t see it?

    RT @Opheli8: A good reason to panic & freak out! Two people at work wearing the same shirt (inc: @web_goddess ) http://twitpic.com/ivm3w

    @witty_knitter Found it on the website! Well done.

    RT @witty_knitter: My letter on Citizenship test in #sydneymorningherald this morning. <- It’s online here: http://bit.ly/mSJqg Nice one!

    @carbolicious Yay! Here’s the yarn I used: http://bit.ly/K0qgx. Delicate cycle should be okay, but best to avoid the dryer.

    RT @gruber: The Ultimate Productivity Blog: http://productiveblog.tumblr.com <- HA!

    @witty_knitter When in doubt, guess Don Bradman.

    Just completed a 4.15 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/mdg45 #RunKeeper

    Woke up on Mars. http://twitpic.com/iqp4x This dust storm is crazy.

    Kids at bus stop wearing face masks. I am reluctant to pull out iPhone in these adverse conditions. Need some sort of iCondom.

    I wore my Doc Martens today just in case I need to kick in any zombie heads. #sydneyduststorm #apocalypse

    @bellsknits I think I can see the Hellmouth from my office. It appears to be located on Crown Street.

    @imdominating I fast-forward through the last 2 minutes every night to get to my Seinfeld rerun.

    It took the better part of 2 hours, but I have finally wrestled Word’s outline numbering into submission. This helped: http://bit.ly/MhkqM

    My sis @carbolicious will be catering the Cake Wrecks book launch events in SF and Petaluma! http://bit.ly/69zqi Go and eat her cake balls.

    @carbolicious How many people are you expecting to turn up? 300 cake balls is a LOT for one town! (Or are 250 for Dan Carbo?) 🙂

    @DianneKing That’s where my sis lives! @carbolicious, when’s your shop gonna open, anyway? 😉

    Quoting Heathers at Dr Amy. “Puss, why can’t you just be a cat? Why do you have to be such a mega-bitch?”

    @ReverseGarbage Going to call you guys tomorrow. Knitters Guild needs a filing cabinet!

    Today’s garden update: The pumpkin has sprouted! The yellow bean seedlings are coming up strong too.

    Congrats to @venks79 on his awesome finish in today’s Bridge Run!

    It is endlessly frustrating to me that Snook’s H.S. didn’t teach George Eliot, so my “Eppie in the coal hole!” references are wasted. #fb

    Just posted some more pictures of my babies. And by babies, I mean vegetables. http://bit.ly/c7YaN

    Just completed a 4.31 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/1Su0X8 #RunKeeper

    Glee = Election + Bring It On + High School Musical. It’s like they invented a crack JUST FOR ME. #fb

    Garden Update: Both broccoli squares have now sprouted!

    Huh. If not for that stupid chest infection, I’d be running the half-marathon right now.

    @imdominating Pics or the Pacey didn’t happen.

    @imdominating Hasn’t Fringe put him in a wifebeater yet? That was like the only thing keeping the last couple seasons of DC watchable, IMHO.

    I put a comfy chair by my desk earlier this week, & now people LOVE TO VISIT. I get half a dozen colleagues flopping down to chat every day.

    I have actually been reduced to screeching “Get away. Get awaaaaaaaaaaaaay!” at my co-workers. (The cushy chair is now gone.)

    @venks79 You were right. They dragged it back 20 minutes later.

    You know the duvet suit? http://www.lazypatch.com My co-worker got the camo one. Seriously.

    Windiness? My fault. I wore a full skirt today.

    Tree #2 that I planted in Moorgate St? GONE. This time it was the Council, replacing with bigger tree though. *sigh*

    @venks79 It was a little like that! But luckily I was smarter and wore shorts underneath. 🙂

    Today’s garden update: lots more rocket seedlings, appearance of cauliflower seedlings, and three dead slugs.

    The cookies appear to have been much appreciated. My good deed is done for the day.

    @Bex_the_Femme Ever used Goldwell Soft Colour Foam? http://bit.ly/183vx1 I found a couple good reviews of it…

    Just completed a 4.04 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Sjeix #RunKeeper

    It’s the kind of day where you can just see the next five glorious months of spring/summer unfurling ahead of you. It’s gonna be good. #fb

    @kms12 No? You’re anti-warm weather? But… pretty blue sky! Barbecues! Sunshine! Daylight Savings! My favorite part of the year by far.

    @kms12 True. My focus has turned to gardening as my knitting mojo has waned with the lengthening days…

    Sigh. @seanchadwick designed an awesome Kanye-inspired Halloween invite for us, but I fear the meme will be played out, oh, about NOW. 🙁

    @redambition As the Queen of Comfortable Shoes, I command you to leave the heels at home. 🙂

    My funky red hair allows me to feel confident in spite of tanned 20somethings on the bus WEARING NO PANTS.

    Lots more baby rocket seedlings coming up this morning! Also saw some slug trails, so I put down Blitzem pellets.

    @randomknits The wind is my fault. I’ve used the GHD twice this week, which makes blustery-ness inevitable.

    Awww, yeah. Peanut. Butter. Cookies. (Better have a light breakfast tomorrow, @venks79 @Opheli8 @chrisgander @VenessaHunt @movietrailerfan!)

    And you know they’re gonna be good, because I’m wearing my uber-housewife pinny: https://web-goddess.org/img/deskcam.jpg

    @twelveeyes BTW – the one I wore today was the Threadless brand tee, and it was SMALLER! Much more form fitting than the AA ones.

    @twelveeyes Yeah. The Threadless isn’t, like, obscene or anything, but it’s definitely more fitted than the AA version.

    Today’s garden update: there are very, very tiny rocket seedlings starting to poke up… #fb

    KANNNNNYE! *shaking fists* http://bit.ly/evk7i

    @Bex_the_Femme Think I may need to do fortnightly top-ups of the red. Got a recommendation for a good hair dye for self-application?

    @Bex_the_Femme It’s not a punk primary red. (We didn’t bleach first, so it went over my brown.) So more of a deep maroon.
