Before I go off on the thing I most hate, I have to mention something I just found on this board. Honestly, I think it might be the most important discovery ever found in this entire forum.
You see, I noticed a hidden button this morning. I, like many others, had never seen it before. I decided I would click it, and see what would happen.
But, before I tell you what did happen, let me tell you what did not happen.
The universe did not implode into a new singularity, awaiting a subsequent explosion to give birth to a new universe.
The galaxy did not start spinning in the opposite direction, throwing all into chaos and wiping out any/all life that might be contained therein.
Our sun did not go supernova, incinerating the earth.
No new wars broke out.
No natural disasters were reported.
My computer did not catch on fire, or otherwise cease to function.
In fact, as far as I can tell, absolutely nothing negative happened.
What did happen?
I found myself on a page, just like I would be replying to a post. But... There was nothing to reply to. It was empty. I could put in a new title, and a new message. I could make it anything I wanted.
The power! The phenomenal power of it all! I could type anything, since I didn't have to reply to anybody, or stick to any topic! I giggled maniacally with laughter, and then began my plotting... Yes, soon, soon I would give voice to my own ideas, without regard for topic!
This was, and is, simply amazing. There's no other term for it. I hope you can all share in the joy, and the power. Let the maniac giggling commence!
Oh, that button... I suppose you want to know which button I clicked, don't you? Well, I won't tell you. It's my precious, and you nasty peopleses can'ts have it, no. My precious "New Thread" button.
*pets the precious while gazing lovingly at it*
