Darth Tater Member | posted 08-02-1999 02:57 PM There lobbying to have my thread where I declare myself Emperor moved here I must say what with this move it's the worst time to tell me to let go of my hate daughters. It's easy to find out how folks do fansy smilies. Just click on the edit link on the e-mail. Sincerely, Your EmperorIP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-02-1999 03:04 PM It's a witch hunt. Their looking for all the slackers and hunting their brain child threads down. Soon all our hard earned thread will be moved. Then all will be lost.IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-02-1999 03:06 PM not all is lost! At least the server is operating quite nicely today. Who's left out there? IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-02-1999 03:22 PM Is it just me or does it still feel like morning. I never even noticed that lunch came and passed.Yup this move is hurting. Or it's just a really slow monday. IP: Logged |
Darth Tater Member | posted 08-02-1999 03:27 PM I'm here. Whoever proposed the website, I'm willing to help. I move for a vote of no confidence in Jasman. All loyal slackers meet me in P:SA in 15 minutes. Each of us will post an anti-Jasman thread and agree with each other. Then we'll see what that does for his ego Who's with me?

gundark Member | posted 08-02-1999 04:17 PM Still slackin...Tater. Don't get yourself banned. it's not worth it. i think we've proved a point now. just kick back and relax at our new "office" all our goodies should be here soon. Damn moving van got caught in traffic. IP: Logged |
Vrian Sinth Member | posted 08-02-1999 04:25 PM It is a pain in the but moving between the two. PSA is gone. It is a dead wasteland blowing in the wind. If I wasn't such a slacker I could go back and forth, but alas, I AM a slacker, and thus must plant my but down here. IP: Logged |
Hacienda51 Member | posted 08-02-1999 04:37 PM Hey, is it too late to join the slack party? I am the Young Queen of all slack!IP: Logged |
gundark Member | posted 08-02-1999 04:41 PM there still seems to be an " air of despair " around here. Do we need another Toga party ? I think we do. We've almost racked up as many enemies as the bashers in the past few weeks alone. It's time now to make new friends. New cubicle slacker converts to post pictures of Darth Maul on co-workers family portaits. New slackers to quote Star Wars for any occasionMore slakcers to join the conga line and make this thread the best one in the Fourm gundark gets off his soapbox...
NOW LETS GO GET PLASTERED !!!!!! gundark VP of slacker operations

The Sandfarmer Member | posted 08-02-1999 05:05 PM Hacienda51 it is never too late to slack off. Good evening slackers, it has been a rough day. I need a drink. p.s. Does any one know if my old name got banned or what? (see my earlier posts in this thread for details) IP: Logged |
Dara Starscream Member | posted 08-02-1999 05:14 PM Hieee!Well, I've had an eventful weekend. My mother got sent to prison, (one day only, don't ask, before Eternity, don't ask) and Hotmail is getting peeved at me because the mailing list I joined has flooded my account well over the 2000 k limit. Maybe I should start using my Eudora account. As to moving, I don't care. Here, there, anywhere, I slack on.

Darth Tater Member | posted 08-02-1999 05:55 PM gundark, your right. I was just too worked up about it to think strate. The slackers have been slacking on their duties. As leader of Slacker Rogue Squadron I propose that we fight to be the first thread to his 1,000!!! Are you with me? But for now, TOGA!!! Sincerely, Your EmperorIP: Logged |

dapper_bloke Member | posted 08-02-1999 06:03 PM 11pm - slacking at home...just saw TPM again and I'm feeling smiley... thought I would drop in to say hi to you all, and see how you are coping now we are stuck in Misc... the frequency of posts to this thread seems to have dropped off quite a bit - I've been a culprit of that today, but today was busy (for a change) in the absence of ideas for the website, I'm asking you all to dig out a picture of yourselves and send it to me at swmcmmj@hotmail.com - I will assemble a slacker's gallery so at least our website will have some content - we can construct more as we think of it... I'm also going to embed a java chat applet into it, so if anyone fancies a quick real-time chat, they can... this should (time permitting) be ready tomorrow; the photos will go up as soon as I have enough... Darth Tater - you said you could help out... what can you offer...? and I still need a good masthead... time for a cigarette - then bed I think... goodnight everyone IP: Logged |
Darth Tater Member | posted 08-02-1999 06:20 PM I use front page and was thinking something along the lines of the lounge that TyranS started. I know where to get some good dancing graphics for it too (I document all the ones Sinth posts ). Sincerely, Your EmperorIP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-02-1999 06:35 PM Darth Tater, be careful once they know we have a goal they will slap us down again. From my count we're well past 1000 along time ago. (If we could put all our lost threads together.) But hey what's a slacker to do. I think tomorrow will be better. Now that everyone has gotten used to this place we can make it liveble again. The pool still shiped in with my office as well as the gargantuan tv screen. Anyone up for ESB? If so right afterwards we must go to the toga party. Doth my eye decieve me. A new slacker. I must make preperations...

Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-02-1999 06:48 PM Welcome new slacker, Hacienda51! It is never too late to become a slacker. Anytime is a great time to be a slacker. Now I must ask you. Why do you wish to be a slacker? Regardless of your answer you are welcome to be a slakcer. One thing that is required is that you slack hard and slack often the best way you can. And in anyway your imaination leads you. enjoy.

obi-wan's jedi knickers Member | posted 08-03-1999 07:14 AM Good morning, good morning all!Geez, kinda strange for slackers to be up so early. Work, I guess! C Creepio still hanging out around here? Our fearless leader-- I salute you! Man, PSA was becoming such a drag-- so glad I've changed my allegiances! Long Live Misc. and the slackers who lurk here! Quite a great group, I must say.

The Sandfarmer Member | posted 08-03-1999 07:27 AM Good morning slackers. Good morning Taryns, Tater, Dapper etc. Welcome aboard ded and Hacienda.I've got a good slacker story. Yesterday I took a long luch break (to help releive my depression over the state of this fourm) and went to K-Mart and looked at toys. They had an R2D2 with pop-up lightsaber I had been looking for so I was happy but I also found laying among the bottom shelf and oppened battle droid with no package to be found. I thought to myself, "Self, you could just put that battle droid in your pocket and no one would notice then you would have a cool battle droid for your desk to play with." Yes I was tempted by the dark side and almost stole. Fortuantely, the good side prevailed and I went to a clerk and asked about the loose figure. They said they usually just threw them away and that I could have it for free. Yaayyyyy me! Once again the good side prevails and the slacker is triumphant. IP: Logged |
Sabé Member | posted 08-03-1999 07:37 AM This a very moral story, Sandfarmer... Indeed, very Star Wars.TarynS, thanks for voting ! You're a pal. Maybe you guys could help me. There is this show, late at night on an obscure channel... An american show with people working in an office and constant references to Star Wars. The boss is evil, well sort of, and he always says : "I am you father" to the hero, making lightsabers noises. I don't even know the name of this show ! Anyway, it is funny. Not great, but funny.

Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-03-1999 07:49 AM Good Morning The Sandfarmer, Sabé, ded, obi-wan's jedi knickers, Hacienda51, and SoCertainRUDr. Sabé , I read your thread in P(SA) and I posted to it too. So worry not. There is someone at your corner to back you up! The Sandfarmer , You indeed strong in the ways of the Force. Master Slacker Creepio judged you well. That was some really lucky slacking you did there. I have no SW figures on my desk or at home but I have a friend in Virginia who said he would give me one of his figs. He's not a SW freak like me yet he has more figs then me. I don't get it. But I am happy. Hacienda51 congrats on grabbing the 500th post. You saw an opportunity and took. Just make sure you don't apply that to real life. That is not the way of the slack. ded we hope you become a regular here. We're always glad to see a new face. Slack on. Slack ON!!!

So I slacked most of the day .. but had to go report to work for a night shift! yuk! So Canadian Operations are now open!! Jedi Soul there should be something in your email!! Darth Tater, if they move your thread here we would have even less reason to go into P:SA!! It might not be that bad!! Misc kinda grows on you! You may even find yourself courting the Light Side!

The Sandfarmer Member | posted 08-03-1999 08:37 AM Hey, I've go a plan. One of our newer members who has not burned as many bridges as C Creepio or I have with the administrators should post nothing but nice posts about the administrators and send nice emails to theforce.net. Then, after a few weeks that slacker member will be appointed administrator. Once he or she assumes power, they will move every single thread in the PSA to the misc. Then everything will be here with us in misc. and I won't have to jump back and forth anymore and everything will be like it used to be. Any volunteers? IP: Logged |
