How come there are no Jeebuses?

[VLM]

What gives? I keep checking the Jeebus board, hoping for something to do, and there is never anything new there.

Is this such a self-absorbed community that no one wants to meet anyone else?

 

[Bwood]

By "anyone else" did you mean you?

 

[Lee Short]

Does the jeebboard even work?

I heard rumors you were going to be up here in Seattle soon. True?

 

[Bwood]

No jeebus threads? I am looking at the threads and see the thread on the Rohmer-Roeg-and-Roumier bash, the Critique of Pure Riesling party at Prof. Loesberg's house, the multi-media event on New Zealand at Thor's place, the Sharin' with Sharon party, and the Bowling Bourbon and Baumard event election night.

Oh, wait, on THAT Jeebus Board. Nevermind.

 

[Brad Kane]

It's out of sight, so out of mind. In my suggestion box thread I suggested a front page of sorts that would let folks know of any new posts in the jeebus board so one wouldn't have to go into the jeebus board to check, but no one ever listens to me.

Yeah, and Gromyko said Brezhnev didn't listen to him, either.

Lee, it IS time for a Seattle jeebus. See what good things have come from this thread already!

I'll be in Seattle in late November.

My question is how the fuck did Lee know?

 

[slaton]

Well, Jay reported recently that the Jeebus board wasn't working, and I think we believed him.

Edit: just posted there, no problems.

Let a hundred jeebi bloom!

 

[Thor]

The Jeebus board, which I'm against as a separate entity (can I say that a few hundred more times?), was accepting new posts as of yesterday...which is a change over a few weeks ago.

I think, if there's no public jeebus activity, it's the same reason that offlines tended to diminish in the aulde days of the WLDG: people take these things private to control the attendance. No big conspiracy, really. But I'll say that I find that it's often more useful to email people in the target destination rather than post in public.

Or, it could be a well-organized anti-Nathan conspiracy. The evidence is unclear.

Disorder groupies made note of a very passing mention by you of such visit in a past thread. Don't you now feel very special and loved!

If I had done this, I never would have known Rahsaan was in DC or met Christian, Nicolas and Andrew.

Not that I particularly like meeting new people, but this was a good evening. Especially when Rahsaan put Andrew and Nicolas office manager on the spot.

It's not paranoia if it's true.

No, not really. But I must have been drunk posting again. I hate that.

So much mirth, so few memories..

Dude, that's my line from work. Cease and desist.

 

[Arjun Mendiratta]

You're both fucking up the line. It's 'just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you.'

Also, as the holiday season approaches, I'd just like to say thank you to all the bay area patients for excluding me from your jeebuses. Thank you.

No, that's a different line.

 

[Scott Kraft]

If it's true, it's paranoia.

Or it that just because you're out to get them, doesn't mean they're paranoid?

VLM and Kane confuse me.

What vintage of mirth and who was the producer?
Memories are for people who still have the ability to remember.

Solid sources report that just a few weeks back, the VLM was indeed invited to participate in jeeb-like activities in the important battleground state of Ohio. Much like Joe the Plumber the other day, he was a no show. There was no response from the monkey camp.

Happy Halloween!
