OK, so it starts out boring, and then goes absolutely nuts. Start reading the comments somewhere in the 90's and then work your way down, and behold the nuttiness that is the Nacle. That is the problem with these blog things, after awhile most people just stop paying attention, and then crazy stuff gets in. Where is the heavy hand of the Admin now?
So I received a personal revelation the other day that all Nacle participants need to stop reproducing entirely, because they neglect their children in favor of blogging. All of you need to get spayed or neutered, now. You can make up for the lack of mortal offspring in the afterlife.
Not seconds, not minutes, not hours, but days...DAYS pass without some Nacle hipster taking upon themselves to comment, either positively or negatively, on the new Joseph Smith:Prophet of the Restoration movie the LDS Church has put out. What is going on? Are all of them so far behind on their finish-the-BOM-by-the-end-of-year that everything else has fallen by the wayside? That might be the case for the BCCers, but we are confidant the permabores at M* and T&S have already finished. Oh, I know what it is, all those guys got the new XBox360 for Christmas and are glued to their HDTVs with surround sound.
Yes, it is true, sex is boring...if you are discussing it on T&S. Talk about sucking the life out of a subject. Wow, lets talk about blastulas and binary fission while we're at it.
P.S., No, we are not back danithew, we are still on vacation until early next week, and, yes, your secretary does think you are wierd, because.
P.P.S., Kingsley, wild or no, we will not be discussing any interesting tidbits of our personal lives here.
P.P.P.S, Julie*, come on, do you have to delete things so vigorously?
*if it wasn't you who deleted it, insert whoever's name should be here (e.g., Kaimi, whoever).
Hey all you Naclers, see you after the Holidays. Until then, we here at the SnarkerNacle wish you all a great Christmas!
P.S., Yes, Stephen (ethesis), we are taking a little break here, so you don't have to point out to us that we have "slowed down some".
Come and trim my Christmas tree,
With some decorations bought at Lindt's, honey,
I really do believe in you,
Let's see if you believe in me
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry, tonight.
Hey, TMILisa, thanks for that lovely solo there. Almost as good as Marilyn Monroe.
I dont know though, I am still trying to figure out what H.O.T. stands for.
Halitosis-afflicted Old-Timer?
Heathen-derived Offensive Tree worship?
Hands On Training?
How Old is the Tiramisu?
Hey, we Ought to go to the Temple?
Herd Of Turtles?
After a punishing one hour walk to work and back, this is what Rusty's feet look like:
Oh, the humanity! Oh, the suffering! Its no wonder New Yorkers are complaining so much, since their legs and feet were long ago relegated to the status of vestigial organs given their dependence on the public transit system.
But, at least Rusty has learned what it was like for the early Pioneers. I hear it was just awful for them too, having to carry their luggage from the airport terminal to the limo themselves, on the way to the chauffeured handcart company, and only having a very limited selection of Dansko clogs on the frontier. Oh, my heck!
John Dehlin, the Nacle's podcast zealot, has challenged the Nacle to conform to his own image of what he thinks it should look like. Nice.
Hey, John, we here at the SnarkerNacle have some challenges for you:
1. Create Nacle videoconference/webcam chat room. Since getting to know each other's faces is requisite to your DehliNacle, set it up. Then, we can all get a good look at what each other looks like unshowered in their pyjamas. And, forbid participants from wearing masks or Graucho Marx mustachioed nose-glasses.
2. DehliNacle Correlation Meeting. Sure to be as effective as any PEC meeting, let us all meet in a giant circle of folding chairs and talk about what it is we are supposed to do this month, and then not really do at all, with the exception of leak any confidential information via the ward grapevine.
3. Create a DehliNacle Hot or Not website. Nacle participants can rate, on a scale of 1 to 10, how hot or not hot a post or fellow participant is. Weekly updates to the "Who's Hot, Who's not" top and bottom 10 will be sent out via e-mail.
4. You buy us all iPods. I want an iPod shuffle, but it needs to be hacked so that it not only randomly shuffles podcasts, I want mine to randomly shuffle the contents of podcasts, mixing them all up together in 5-10 second sound bites, and add something by Bjork or the Sugarcubes as background music. That is the only way it would be entertaining enough that I would listen to them.
5. Encourage M* to take on Sunstone as their co-permabloggers. Just as BCC has teamed up with Dialogue (and what a stunning success that has been, I mean readership of Dialogue has gone up by the dozens!), having M* and Sunstone team up would result in no small fireworks and some great posts. This will give Sunstone real Nacle credibility as they show off their stuff, and sap M* of its will to live.
6. Have the Nacle collaborate on a musical version of the Bloggernacle. It could be "Give My Regards to Bloggernacle", or "Salt Lake, Salt Lake!" or "les Nacerables" or "The fMh Monologues" or "The BOH Producers" or "Beauty & the Beast:MPJ & DKL".
You can do it, John, I know you can. I know I'm out of line commanding you to do these things, but I know you are capable of greater things than just podcasts. I hope you will sieze the moment.
