WARNING:
If at any point in the next several months, I seem to be acting erratically, assume that my account has been taken over by my son.
Last night at dinner, Gary and Scott were talking about how in almost every online site they read, posts turn into arguments and drama. Doesn't matter the topic, it could be political or music or 3D printing. 99% of the comments are s***-posting.
I was very smug when I said that we don't have that here. Very smug. Probably a little too smug. *nods* The O is practically drama-free. (I did tell them about the digital scrapping vs paper scrapping "wars" in the early days of scrapping online and they were amused at that-) Scott came up with a plan to provoke the O into a fight. I told him that if he did that, I have mod powers and I would ban him.
His response to that: He was going to hack my account and over the next several months, would start posting about the taboo topics- slowly at first, then more blatant. Then he would-- as me-- start banning people that I (he) "disagreed" with. He would cause such a stir that Vicki would have no other option than to perma-ban me.
That kid had a devious mind ROTF!! He had it all planned out, tested every angle, and was so over the top. I couldn't stop laughing.
I wish I could say that I got a lot of "important" things done yesterday. I started on the gnomes and two actually look like gnomes. Not done yet but getting there. I found some silvery ribbon/cord that I used to cover the wire on their arms. The coffin box got two coats of paint- I am trying to hide it in the basement so it is covered with brown kraft paper and a note that says "Don't peek." It needs more paint and then the clear coat. The family knows that I am painting something, they just don't know what.
I am picking up groceries this morning and then - *throws hands in the air* I wish I knew! hahahahah!!!
happy note-- we have a tentative date for decorating the tree! Should be good for next Tuesday!
