The people at work are giving me more "slacker opportunity" than expected. Hence, this week's slacker awards will come out early.But first, I was on the webpage and noticed dapper_bloke was listed under the new promotions, yet he did not have a rank. I apologize for that and award our website guru the rank of "The Will of the Slack." Now, onto the awards: Most Enthusiastic Slackers: Sandfarmer (for not getting banned!) and RedHot5 (indeed your slack has grown powerful) Best New Slacking Technique: Vrian Sinth, "Don't just do somthing, sit there. Cultivate aimlessness as an occasional and useful state of mind. Develop the attitude of 'letting be' for those times when there is simply nothing to be urgently done." Thank you for sharing that slacker quote. Perhaps we can all learn something.... Best Post: Hacienda51's Blowing up the Emp (for the effort ) Slacker of the Week: Anyone who starts a slacker's chatroom. Not only does that symbolize the essence of true slack, it shuts up all the anti-slackers. Well done, dapper_bloke!!!!! Now, time to catch up on my Leia=Sith thread...

I have a suggestion. When make a new thread I believe it would be prudent if you could leave a message in the old thread telling of the move and a link to the new thread. Just a suggestion. I am such a slacker that I didn't even bother to scroll around Misc (till 5min ago) to notice that a new thread was made. I had just assumed that the server was down and junk like that. Oh well. Im here now and that's all that matters. Now Im going to read the first two pages of this thread. Welcome Back C Creepio!! You were very much missed.

Hi everybody ! Hi TarynS ! Hi Creepio ! Welcome back ! Isn't the chat room great ?RedHot5, good answer to Spaz. Spaz, I don't know if you are reading, but... The relevance to this thread to Star Wars is that we're all Star Wars fans, of course. In Miscellaenous, many threads are centered around an interest (comics, movies, sex, flirting, jokes, whatever... ) which has nothing to do with Star Wars... The point being that it's fun to see what "we" fans have in common in addition to this passion. And here, in this thread, the subject is, well... laziness, I guess, and for some of us (Creepio in particular) the wish to promote Star Wars in the workplace. And you're welcome to join anytime... !

Oh the Awards are out!! Hey Congrats award winners. You all diserved it!! You all do so little and slack so well. What lack of form, posture, for-thought(sp?)or design. Simply beuatiful!! You all have learned well what it is to be one with the Slack. RedHot5 I will take you on as my Padawan. If that is okay with you. TarynS searches the thread looking for her current Padawan rookie. Oh there he is. rookie I must appologize for neglecting you for so long. Like jedi Soul and hew my school project has taken alot of my time. I curse them a hundred different ways. But back to my point. I've reviewed your post and I do believe that you are ready for the trials and will succeed. But not complete with your training are you. You must take on a padawan. This is no lite matter. You must show them the way of the slack, and not allow them to stray to the dark side. I have faith that you will be able to accomplish this. Now go! May the Slack be with you. Now Rookie

Stupidest post? That might not be the best award, since then we will have people putting up really dumb stuff just so they could win the award. Then again, it could be hilarious to see what people post when trying win the award...IP: Logged |

I think any post that manages to have Palpitine=Sid's clone, Sid=Anakin's Father, and Darth Maul will return; with (Proof Inside) in the title should win hands down. Wait a minute. I did that. I have the single most stupidest post! Concord Dawn IP: Logged |

Just want to make a little distinction between Master and master. There is only one all powerful and truest Master of the Slack That is our most loved C Creepio No one shall have that title but him and may be Gundark (since he is his apprentice and VP master slacker) in any prolonged absenced of C Creepio (knock on wood that nothing should be-fall our Master. So don't any master go getting a bloated head. (including myself) You may now carry on with the slacking. Hey Sabé Glad that we are posting together in real time. I love that giberish you have up there. I nearly dropped on the floor laughing. I don't know why but for some reasone it was incredibly funny to me. So where is everybody. Man this project is sucking up all my slacking time. ;( I can wait till Thanksgiving Break! That sounded so sad. Hello C Creepio, Vrian, Arsinoe, rookie, Darth Tater, Obi Two, Jedi Soul & Amidala's Suitor (cutest couple I ever did see ), Gundark, dapper_bloke, RedHot5(Wedge) , Sand farmer, Darth Moose, scfiead, Spaz, Hoth Queen, SotS, and any slacker lurkers out there (you know who you are)!!! whew!!!! that was a breath-taker.

Taryn misses me again. Funny how that happens to Jar Jar, everyone just ignores you or looks past you as if you don't exist.... Oh well. I've done a good deed today -- got my coworker slacking on a chat bbs. It may be on the backstreet boys, but I ain't going to be getting any glares from her anytime soon. IP: Logged |

Jedi Knight TarynS, I am honored that you think I am ready for the trials, Master. I will do my best in choosing a padawan to teach the ways of the slack.May the slack be with you. (The search is on. I will begin taking applications when I get back from the musuem.)

..... Oh my GOSH!!! TarynS makes a mad dash towards Binks2. When she reaches him she is all out of breath. She leans over on a wall trying to get some air into her lungs and collect her thoughts.Senator Binks2[/i] I am soo sorry I missed you. I didnt know you were here, but that is no excuse. My most sincerest and deepest appologies [b]Senator. I am truly shamed for my oversite. You must know that I did not do this on purpose. Please forgive me. I could blame my huge mistake on my Sith project parnters, or the project itself, but that is not the slacker way. All I can say is I promise not to make such an oversite again. TarynS thinks to herself... Man Im always saying "Im sorry" for something. There must be something seriously wrong with me. Where is my head?!? Oh yeah in the Lounge floating around in the pool with Luke. he he he. TarynS fades back to the lounge to join Luke in the pool.(

Thanks for the Most Enthusiastic slacker award C Creepio. Another week has gone by and I am not yet banned. I owe it all to the slack. It is the slack that keeps me at peace. It is the slack that keeps me from flaming or trolling. It is the slack that keeps me happy. That and saying Naboo. Now I would like to share a story my mother used to tell me when I was but a wee sandfarmer. Once upon a time in the land of slack, a young slacker was slacking the slack when all of the slack a great giant slack came and ate his slack. "What the slack will I do?" Thought the slacker, when suddenly a slack slack slacked out of the river and said... IP: Logged |
