Got into work early this morning and was checking the C&J. And I noticed that something with the site appears to be broken.
Or new.
If you would, join me after the jump for some tea and crumpets. Or if it is real cold out where you are (cause it is here), howzabout some
warm spiced mead...
Ok, I lied about the tea and crumpets. But I did have some warm spiced mead last night. I would highly recommend it. Mead is one of mankind's oldest fermented beverages. Kind of like a thick wine, but made with honey instead of grapes. And God knows, the bees are important to everything that lives (hence their appearance on the Emperor(sp?) card in the Hermectic Tarot deck, but that is a discussion for another time)...
Alas, but I digress. Back to my original point:
Now, instead of just a 'recommend' button, I not have a 'troll' button. I did not want to hit that button for fear that a troll would take over my browser window, and I was not finished reading the delicious snark that BiPM serves up on a regular basis.
So, would someone please tell Kos that something is wrong with the site?
I am the last person on this site that would warrant having the ability to troll-rate anyone's comment. As stated previously, I am one of the densest Kossacks amongst us. If I can't snarkily or directly inform a poster that their comment is troll-worthy through a well-stated anecdote or blistering rebuttal, then I really shouldn't have a 'troll' button anyway.
So, in closing, I am not certain what to do now. I would try to troll myself, and hopefully get rid of the newfound capability on the site, so I can get back to lurking and informing myself of the latest and greatest items of outrage put out by our elected representatives and wondering who is going to be the two candidates that get the party nods in 2008.
Probably ought to troll-rate me for this useless diary too.
Go ahead.
I won't mind.
And, because I am listening to 'Hot Rats' early at work today, I leave you all with my favorite Frank Zappa quote:
"You can't be a real country unless you have your own airline and your own beer. A professional football team or some nuclear weapons help, but at the very least, you need your own beer."
Peace,
