    Hats off to Zombie, coming in at 308 posts as of 10:08pm cst, many of them quite lengthy. I'd say that Trayvon and Zimmerman both owe you at least 5 hours of your life back but since only one of them is still with us you'll have to ask Zimmerman to cover for both. Just tweet Spike Lee for his contact info and ignore the old people who claim he doesn't live there. :bergman:

    I hope my 23 posts were silly, and unhelpful.

    The real question is how much Wordforge owes me.

    Let me see: 14,540 posts, at an average of 11,434 words per post. I type at about 193 words per minute, but still...

    If my time is worth $35 an hour, at a minimum (with a bonus for exceptionally brilliant prose, which accounts for 95% of my posts), it should be possible to calculate it.

    Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to do it in the Red Room. :( So I'll just settle out of court for $10,000. Lanz, you can mail me the check, and I won't sue you for taking advantage of my weakness.

    You could always do the math on a piece of scratch paper, and them just post the results.

    If you can. :|

    Hmmmm, that graph has quite a "hockey stick" configuration in it towards the end. That would seem to indicate that the "skittles" thread is soon going to reach some kind of tipping point and grow completely out of control. It could in fact disrupt the entire time-space continuum.

    Though we might be lucky, and the destruction might be limited to our own galaxy...

    OTOH, I'm glad that the idiocy high school drama that was Meka is no longer WF's longest thread. :brood:

    If it happens 95% of the time, it's not really exceptional, is it.

    It's not my fault that being exceptional compared to others is not exceptional for me! :bailey:

    I'm pretty sure Sandbagger can bill the George Zimmerman defense team, given all the work he's done for them.

    I think it's CBS that owes the time, rather than Zimmerman. They're the ones who created this shitstorm.

    Just googled Zimmerman, you guys owe me 5 minutes. So, he is a Hispanic who became white by killing a black man. Interesting stuff......not.

    I was out of town when all this stuff went down. I am not always such a news hound as the WF gang.
