A quiet little thread

Sometimes the moderators are even more diabolical than I am.

On William's way out, he asked us to consider poetinahat to take over as the poetry mod.

We discussed it and overwhelmingly agreed. Some people pondered whether or not he'd accept if we asked him. One supermod said, "What's all this about asking him?" and a mod who shall remain nameless said:

"I say add him to the list, slap his name on the forum as mod, and see how long it takes for him to notice that he can see the squad room..."

I wrung my little hands together and did just that.

Hi, Rob.

We love you.

Considering your name's already on the door an' stuff... won't you please be our new poetry mod?

sneaky guys, you are

well, the flowers might help...

poetinahat · Aug 23, 2006

Wow. It's really bright in here now!

Delighted, thank you. I accept.

Unique · Aug 23, 2006

Bwahahaha....

How's the collar? Did you get one with 'shiny jewels'?

You'll do great, Mr. Poetinahat.

Smart Move -- on everyone's part.

Well, there goes the poetry forum . . .

Just kidding. Congratulations, poet.

Good thing he accepted. It's a real pain trying to scrape off those names once they're chiseled on there...

I've splurged and ordered a collar with Swarovski crystal for him.

Well Rob, what diabolical plans have you for the forum? This should be interesting. It could be no one else, bud. You shall reign supreme. Enjoy the all amazing, incredibly awesome cosmic power! (and the itty bitty living space). Oh wait, that's the Genie. Forget that part. Have fun and have fun keeping us in line! **insert evil grin here**

PS Should I call you Mr. Poet now?

Robert Toy · Aug 23, 2006

Please how common, It's His Royal Highness!

Good Word · Aug 23, 2006

No fair!

I've been here a long time and mine's just made of sea glass and rubber!

I demand an upgrade.

(But I am absolutely and poetically pleased that Rob has accepted. Now I can harrass him in public more.)

Patricia · Aug 23, 2006

I like the new additon!

ddgryphon · Aug 23, 2006

I just want to clarify: We don't have to start calling him "Poet in a Crown" now do we?

Or is it "Poet in a Mitre?"

Godfather · Aug 23, 2006

Yes! mr. poetinahat. Good choice Jenna and the mods. Good choice indeed.

He'll be a great mod.

Birol · Aug 23, 2006

Welcome, Poet.

(Everyone should be gentle with him for the next couple of days. He'll be disoriented for a little while yet.)

Cathy C · Aug 23, 2006

He'll be disoriented for a little while yet.)

The special Mod Kool-aid has that effect on a lot of us. He'll get used to it...

Haggis · Aug 23, 2006

Congrats, Poet.

You other mods are going to short-sheet him, aren't you?

poetinahat · Aug 23, 2006

So that's what it was! I thought it was a tranquilizer dart from "My Assistant Jim Fowler".

so why does my neck sting?

Sarita · Aug 23, 2006

Welcome Rob! Anyone who voluntarily leads this bunch of crazies is a Saint... Oh wait! Not voluntary, you say? Forced, you say?

Bwahahahahaha!!!

NeuroFizz · Aug 23, 2006

Rule wisely, Rob. Here's some tissue to stuff in the toes of the shoes you have to fill. You'll only need it for a short while, I'm sure--an intended compliment to both william and you. Congrats.

We are in good hands (a little Jurgens lotion and all).

JAlpha · Aug 23, 2006

Now there's some good news I can wrap my arms around!

:e2arms:

Stew21 · Aug 23, 2006

oh this makes me so happy. I'm so glad I saw this today.

I needed this.

Keep greening night's black blades, buddy. As I know you will!

wordsheff · Aug 23, 2006

Awesome...we go from a skull on fire under a cowboy hat to a dude surfing toward us...

totally natural progression '

Congrats, Rob.

But please, no "Be like Morrissey" contests, okay?

Cool! One of my very favorite people.

Big congrats, Rob.

A. Hamilton · Aug 23, 2006
