I would flare at that, but I prefer to maintain my current obliquity.
Oh, so that's what you call it these days?
Are you hinting that you are perturbed by my ascent?
I think it's just your period.
You just won't admit that you are outclast, will you?
I've node it for some time.
Well, that's just tuff for you, isn't it? I take no umbra in those situations and neither should you.

It is only a match if you shout back. Otherwise it is your colleague acting like a lunatic.

Mods, why is this thread still marked as a sticky? Let it grow old and die with dignity.

Hmmm. Has any thread become unsticky? Is sticky a one-way process only?
[I love zombie threads. Who's with me?]

My major indulgence is playing Wizard 101, both with my kids and without. It's great to be a Grandmaster Balance Wizard in at least one part of my life :)!
