Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Whatever is decided, I think it should be consistent between the main threads and the ones on the right side.

Absolutely.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm comfortable having my last name used, actually

Would you rather I put your last name back in? It'll take me less than a minute to change it back.

Nah, don't bother.

I'm definatly for consistent, and I'm with Elena. My connection being slow may affect that more than what I do, but if all threads with no unread posts only showed the last post, I could leave my posts-per-page at 200 or whatever and wouldn't be forever changing it.

Another thing to add to the to-do list; adding a mode for folks with impaired vision. Looks pretty easy to do.

I'm a bit confused about that one.

Don't people with those kind of disabilities use the "use my stylesheet, ignore their stylesheet" option available in most browsers nowadays?

I can have everything bright yellow on black in huge fonts in about thirty seconds by using that option.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

This is just a silly question.

I know I can't search for ita or Kat in the search engine, and maybe they would like to remain shiftily unavailable like that, but I was wondering if maybe be possible to search for people by user *number*? Like, I know I'm 61, John is 97, ita is 2. I don't know how the search-for-user thing *works*, but if it's something that might be easy to do, it's an idea.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

RL, you can search for all posts by me -- the user name field works differently from the contents field.

Oh!

OK.

Never mind.

Proposal for the FAQ: Which Buffistas have become words in their own right?

Meara and Nilly have become verbs, I think "the Anya" of something is a noun meaning the snarky recap, whether done by Anya or not. Is [Jeff] Meija a word?

I'm sure I've forgotten a lot more.
