Is it just my browser playing up, or is the header actually completely wonky?

Edit: I've just remembered that the forums link on the 5MS sub-site doesn't work either.[/color:post_uid0]

[Zeke]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It wasn't just your browser. I've fixed it; thanks for the heads-up. I also got the Forums link, and I'm impressed you noticed -- 5MS isn't exactly a frequent updater.[/color:post_uid0]

Speaking of [b:post_uid0]Farscape,[/b:post_uid0] the last issue of [b:post_uid0]Farscape
Magazine (http://www.farscapism.com/Farscape_Magazine/farscape_mag_issue_12.htm)[/b:post_uid0] was published recently.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Incidently, so was the latest Doctor Who Magazine (http://www.staff.ncl.ac.uk/damon.querry/dwm/).

It's just one shameless plug after another on this site. In between the food anyway.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Mmm, pie. *Zap* Mmm, pie. *Zap* Mmmm, pie...


Anyway, just noticed today that apparently the April Fools' Day triple-? in the title for "Q Who?" hasn't been cleaned up. Presumably this isn't a cache problem, as "Who Watches the Watchers?" has a single '?' in its title.

(Hmm, interestingly enough, that only holds true for the "all seasons" display.)[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, of course. So many non-existent lake dams to build secret fortresses in. ;)

Well, OK, I've been near the Queen.

He car drove right past me at the Commonwealth Games in 1994. She looked vaguely like my Grandma.

[quote:post_uid0]Break out the Pommy jokes, Sa'ar. [/quote:post_uid0]

You don't just break out Pommy jokes. You have to wait for an opening and then let loose a torrent of scathing disdain.

[quote:post_uid0]First, there were the Welsh, who prayed on their knees, and on their neighbours. Then there were the Scots, who kept the Sabbath, and anything else they could get their hands on. Then there were the Irish, who were never quite sure what it was they were fighting for, but were always ready to fight for it anyway. And finally, there were the English, who considered themselves a self-made nation, thus relieving the Almighty of a terrible responsibility. -- Peter Bleackley, in alt.fan.pratchett[/quote:post_uid0]

Oi! What d'you think I am? Stone the crows! Bloomin' Pom wouldn't know an Aussie if one whacked him with a cricket bat.

How's that, then? Truthfully, I'm only half Australian. Dad's Aussie, Mum's Canadian.

At least you didn't spell it 'Ozzie.'[/color:post_uid0]

I don't think I'd ever make that mistake - I absolutely hate that show. Really, mocking Aussies is second only to mocking the Sassenach (though it's not a good idea at the moment, as they somewhat outnumber me right now).[/color:post_uid0]

I guess I can't call you a Pommy, then. We'll mock the bluidy Sassenach together (even if most of my ancestry is English).[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Clam chowder isn't seafood, it's soup.

My Biology 11 teacher made 'sushi' in class one day. She used imitation crab meat, day-old congealed rice, the cheapest form of kelp wrapping she could find and a paper towel instead of a bamboo mat.

The Korean student wouldn't touch it. I followed her lead.

[quote:post_uid0]You godless HEATHEN. [/quote:post_uid0]

Correct on both counts, although 'heretic' might be a bit more accurate.[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hm. Two more triple-? sightings, in the descriptions for "Tapestry" and "A Matter of Time" on the all-seasons display.

Maybe they're conspiring to multiply and conquer the site, or even the world... :suspicious: :O[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sushi must be made properly.

Sorry, sorry, godless HERETIC. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Haha, sushi. Love it.

Although anyone who's watched "Sex and the City" would know the alternate meaning of "eating sushi". :D[/color:post_uid0]

[entei]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Can't say I've ever watched a great lot of 'Sex and The City'. I've never been a fan of writers using shock tactics to try and grab an audience. Hence why I hate things which resort to the following for no reason: -

Sex, Rape, Rediculously excessive foul language, Violence, Honesty From the Government, People in Pink Hats, Green colour schemes... and so on!

[Kira]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Wow, have I ever been gone too long.

(1) Okay, so I missed [i:post_uid0]one freaking page[/i:post_uid0] undoing my brilliant April Fool's prank. I think 1 out of 384 is actually pretty impressive.

(2) I'm disturbed that NeoMatrix answers to "Kira", but I will certainly remember it if anyone is ever trying to kill me.

(3) Busy? Yes, I've been busy, to put it mildly. I wrote finals, completed a major paper, gave an honours seminar, started a new job, and moved into a new apartment all in the span of a few weeks. The internet at my new place only got connected last Friday and I'm still hopping trying to get everything in order. Never fear: assuming Zeke can pull through and freeze Hell over, there are at least three major events coming before the end of June.

(4) Saskatchewan. It's not that hard to spell. Look on a map if it helps -- we're the large rectangular province north of Montana and North Dakota (and bigger than those two states and South Dakota put together, thank you very much).

(5) It's chow-DER and everybody knows it except people from New England.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, maybe you just need an easier example. ;)

Let's see... :think:
A black hole flies through a star system. It doesn't knock any of the five planets out of orbit. (Maybe not the best example, but that beside the point.)
This is very illogical.
It is logical that it's illogical.
Therefore illogic is logical.

or something :p[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Makes sense to me! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I don't know that's that a particularly good example - it's more a demonstration of extreme imporbability than of illogicality. Maybe something like the fact that Microsoft makes many good games is better - it's extremely illogical indeed that it should be so considering the quality of the rest of the software that they make. It's a fact, and fact equals logic, [i:post_uid0]therefore[/i:post_uid0] illogic is logical.[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Nan has an illogical wish to be mysterious.

Nan also has an illogical desire to be evil.

Nan places a higher value on being mysterious than on being evil.

One morning, Nan wakes up and wonders, "Should I concentrate on being mysterious today, or on being evil?"

Since Nan places a higher value on being mysterious, she decides to focus on being mysterious that day.

Thus, Nan has gone about her illogic in a logical manner.

[color=#CCCCCC:post_uid0](Who else thinks she will pop in and protest, "Who says I think being mysterious is more important?..."?)[/color:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0]
