Just completed a 4.21 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/hrGAy #RunKeeper

Smitten Kitten’s Date Spice Loaf in the oven as we speak… http://bit.ly/fOiph MY HOUSE SMELLS SO GOOD.

---

@sharre My stylist snuck in a semi-fringe on me with my recent cut. I think I like it.

---

Finished Spiced Date Loaf. Consumed with orange-flavoured cream cheese spread. YUM. http://twitpic.com/jcpg7

---

@Fiestywenchyone You’re not wrong. I’ve set the first one to record just so I can confirm its crapitude.

---

@Justacogitating Hot chocolate? Blasphemy. Should be tea, the better to celebrate Mother England. 🙂

---

Just spotted near Sydney Uni Civil Engineering building: http://twitpic.com/j5k4x WOOF! GRRR! Good dog.

---

At Carraigeworks for gardening talk. SYTYCD auditions are nearby, so it’s overrun by teens in leotards and too much makeup.

---

@mrs_sockvictim Agreed! Love the Knitters. 🙂

---

@Kat13v She called tonight. Nope, no check. 🙁

---

@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)
