Awesome. Thank you.
I like comedy but your comment about the world being so crazy is the topic it's open is brilliant.
I almost like you now.

Plus, no need to like me (or your conception of me) -- it has emerged that according to one of Putin's closest advisers I might be a gay gene-modded military combat mosquito. 😉
@kevin-eleven saidMaybe true...

I was about to ask how many choices the poll function would allow, but then I remembered previous contests used ranked voting, where people voted for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.
I think that this time around I'll just ask the voters to mention their top three (one point each: which will make it easier for the voters as well as the score compiler), but of course people would also be free to say what was their most favorite, and also to list honorable mentions, and to scribble whatever additional blandishments they might be moved to make.
@kevin-eleven saidCut off date.

@booger said"My parents made a good life for us kids out of little means. We grew up on hot dogs and beans, and one time at Christmas Mom heated our temporary single-wide mobile home with the gas oven because the electric was off. Pretty cool and funny to see that chunk of ice in the toilet in the morning."
Maybe true...

@kevin-eleven removed their quoted postI’m not sure the PM system carries individual messages that long.

@divegeester saidSo, what's the upper character limit for a PM?
Sure, happy to be of any help you need.
Hoping you won't manage to disappoint us all.
Or are you and @Russ not on speaking terms at the moment?
