Of course, you're just doing the best job at bumping this :P.

Most people don't realize how much hard work and determination is required in the field of thread-tending. You know, it isn't always the cake and glory they make it out to be on those recruiting posters.

Players these days aren't interested in things like that, though. The minute they see a little work ahead, it's straight back to the [away] tag. [img]http://polarorder.net/Smileys/default/old.gif[/img]

You know, in my day, we had what you call "thread gangs." And we'd go from thread to thread, bumping as we go. And that's what they paid us for. Just standing around, swinging our keyboards, singing the old Bump ballad.

The pay wasn't much. But we were satisfied with our lives... and we did our jobs with pride.

Not like today's people. That I know. 'Less you bribe them with a mil to a bump, they won't even check in for work. No... no, things aren't the same.

Why, just to get to the threads we were bumping, we'd have to go through 8 subforums to get there, and then 8 subforums back.

And the lag? Don't even get me started on the lag. Why, with the old connections we used to work with, it could take the better part of 10 minutes just to say "post."

Behold the hippopotamus!
We laugh at how he looks to us,
And yet in moments dark and grim
I wonder how we look to him.

Peace, peace, thou hippopotamus!
We really look all right to us,
As you no doubt delight the eye
Of other hippopotami.

A hippopotamusn't sit
On lawn chairs, stools, and rockers.
A hippopotamusn't yawn
Directly under tightrope walkers.

A hippopotamusn't roll
In gutters used by bowlers.
A hippopotamusn't fail
To floss his hippopotamolars.

The awful things a hippopotamusn't do
Are just
As important as the lawful things
A hippopotamust.

Hippo-pota-muses
Don't like doing sums,
So they're often very naughty
Just before the teacher comes.

Rowdy hippo boys
Begin to barge and bump,
And they tease the hippo girls,
And even kick them in the rump!

But those hippo-pota-misses
Don't bother answering
'Cos through their hefty hippo hides
They never feel a thing.
