April Fool
All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

Welcome!
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

I wonder if she has anymore sexy photos of herself.

What a treat that was!

April Fool

I joined in the summer of 2001.  Is this in reference to something that happened before that because I don't get it.

It started way back but nobody's really sure about the origins of April Fools' Day. Some say it has to do with the changing of the calendar. The people who refused to change (or didn't know about the change) were April Fools. Another theory says it happened when a Court Jester was given the ability to rule for one day. He started a day of foolishness or April Fools day.

But yeah... it was before 2001.  ;D

Had I had more time to mess around, I would have actually created a sock puppet account of her for a day. (Alerting my fellow mods of course.) Wouldn't that have been scary?

And DG was around after 2001. But I think you were on a hiatus at the time. She was a virus that had infected the AOF, the Asshelmets, us, The Order, and a bunch of non-related sites as well. I don't know what she's up to these days, but I'm just glad she's not up to it here. She has the distinction of being one of the few people banned at the AOF and Asshelmets, and is the only person I've ever banned in the UV. (Spambots aren't people, so they don't count.)

But speaking of Spambots, since you're not familiar with her, Gypsy was essentially what a spambot would be if it wasn't trying to sell you anything and had artificial intelligence. When she first arrived at the AOF back in the day, most of us thought she was a sock puppet of another poster. But no one claimed her. It was soon pretty much verified that she was an actual individual. A 50+ year-old chain smoking housewife/grandmother who had nothing better to do all day but flirt with teenage boys in the interwebs and post the most inane crap ever.

She's not actually banned on this current board because we never added her when we last moved. But if she does show up, she will be Kill On Sight.

She's the only person I've seen (outside of the street people in Hollywood/San Fran) that could have a long conversation with themselves.

I've seen threads where she's just talking to herself. She'll post something and that triggers a memory so she'll post something else, and that will trigger a memory...

The strangest thing is, it wasn't like someone posting a diary or updating a blog. It was someone chatting with a old friend and the friend was herself.

Man, now I want to read her postings.  Not that I want to, I HAVE TO, like if someone came up and said, "Hey, you wanna' see a snuff film?"
"Nice try Horrigan!  Now... TASTE THE FURY OF VIC'S PIPE RIFLE!"

Spambots aren't people, so they don't count.

Okay, in retrospect, maybe that wasn't the best analogy, even If I was speaking figuratively.

Let's try again.  ::clears throat::

Man, now I want to read her postings.  Not that I want to, I HAVE TO, like if someone came up and said, "Hey, you wanna' see Witless Protection."

::nods::

That's better, (I think. :anxious:)  Hope no one thinks less of me for that poorly thought-out earlier response.

::In medieval times, a family of primitive pagan Simpsons, wearing pelts, are dancing around a huge bonfire with a big idol in the middle of it, chanting::
Medieval Simpsons: "BLOOD-FOR-BAAL, BLOOD-FOR-BAAL!"
::a medieval Flanders family walks up to the medieval Simpsons:: 
Medieval Ned: "Hi-diddly-hi Pagans!  New Year's was three months ago, but here's a little present any-hoo."
Medieval Todd: "It's ram's blood for your godless ceremony."
::medieval Homer and Marge open the jar and spring-loaded rubber snakes fly out::
Medieval Ned:  "Ha ha.  April Fool's!"
::The Flanders family laughs hysterically, their laughs gradually dying off as they become increasingly aware that the Simpsons are not laughing.  Medieval Homer does that evil supervillain "clutching air" pose and growls.  The scene smash-cuts to the Flanders family, now tied to a post in the middle of the roaring bonfire as the Simpsons dance around them chanting in unison::
Medieval Simpsons: "NOW WHO'S LAUGH-ING? NOW-WHO'S-LAUGH-ING"?
