He's inexperienced in the art of thread starting? No point giving her double the pressure in a doubly important day. I mean, if Zerda had some prior experience I wouldn't be so concerned.
Zerda asked for dibs a couple of months ago. She has been a member of this forum longer than you or I have. She has done several hundred thousand more HITs than you or I have. She deserves the respect of having her request honored.
In the end if two threads are started(it used to happen) it comes down to which gets used. One will live and one will die out. So it's kind of a popularity contest, except for those who follow the post in the first one started train of thought.
I thought I'd take a nap and ended up sleeping for a long time. So, it's the middle of the night and I'm wide awake. Good morning, everyone!
everyone's gotta start somewhere. zerda also called for thanksgiving way before you. it's always been like that.
Look, it's no big deal if two people post one. That kind of thing used to happen from time to time. Everyone will settle on one and the mods can lock the other, or delete it, or whatever modly trick they have.
There is only ONE WAY TO SETTLE THIS DISPUTE. *brings out a pie* I will eat this pie.... And I SHALL CREATE THE THREAD IN HONOR OF BEAR PIE EATING DAY A DAY WE HOLD SO DEAR IN THE BIG FOREST.
