I've had the occasional thread locked. Rarely. I'm usually very good at skirting the line. But this will be my first completely removed thread.

Well if it went underground, it must just have been a drill, last I saw it was sitting above this thread.... :D

Apparently my threads, much like their creator, don't follow the norm. :)

Disappearing threads reappearing? Sounds like a conspiracy to me.

Where's the Smoking Man when you need him?

Alas, the Smoking Man is no more. :(
The nation ceased to exist three days ago. I believe disposal of the remains is to be by cremation.

I reckon it disappeared because of a secret government conspiracy (I don't really care which government, just government). My theory is that too many people were talking about explosions and how to escape from the authorities and so the government decided to try to shut down our secret anti-being locked up ring. That, or the site just went dodgy or someone complained... I don't know.

It's a pity though, because now I can't find it and I had a story... :mad:

You see, this friend of mine once 'accidentally' set fire to a sink in chemistry and he got away with it because it was an 'accident'. Myself, I doubt that it actually was an accident... They were doing solubility pracs involving alcohols and sodium, and after the prac, my friend just dumped it all in the sink. Now, there just happened to be water in this sink and, well, you get the picture....

Well, now that The Smoking Man has ceased to be, under the terms of agreement with the owner, I am at liberty to divulge his true identity.

The question is, can you handle the truth?

*blinks*

Did you just suggest neo cons are capable of being subtle?

And there I was thinking the 'lunatics' in your name was just for aesthetic appeal... Ok, I admit, I never really thought that BUT!

I forgot what point I was making. I'm going to go to the other thread now.

As an inhabitant of Forum 7, I suspected as much. Now why didn't I take that bet? :headbang:

Both maximum kudos and respect for creating the character, though!

Aah, the penalties of playing a reasonable person IRL.

Keep up the good work. :cool:
