notapipe @ May 29 2003, 02:18:23 UTC

Yes. But my skin just failed because no one told me to calm down before now.

You'll have to invest in exfoliating cream.
I suggest the apricot "st Ives" range.

Ya need to add "Did you lie about all the news stuff just to get down to the good question?"

saffronlie @ May 28 2003, 05:15:35 UTC

Heh. Is there supposed to be a correlation between the last questions? Like, "the thinking nrager knows that H/D is true"?

I'm studying Journalism and we have to read the papers everyday because they keep springing these quizzes on us which always involved some obscure country and the name of a high-flying executive gone bad. They should quiz me on NA instead!

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 12:07:27 UTC

No. I put it there on a whim. Besides, since popular opinion is the only real barometer of truth, now we know...

flyingcarpet @ May 28 2003, 06:53:18 UTC

does nraged count as the news?

Hell, yes!

flyingcarpet @ May 28 2003, 09:38:53 UTC Re:

In that case, yes, I read the news all the time. :)

I'll answer as bookofjude would answer, if he were to answer:

"Why thank you. notapipe, light of my life, lord of all that is good in this world, bringer of the funny and my god, made it for me. Isn't he great?"

notapipe @ May 30 2003, 21:39:15 UTC

Well, I've crunched the numbers, and the results are in!

I was wrong. hezzabeth IS contemptable in her news perusing habits, compared to the rest of nraged.

Also: Harry and Draco are in WUV. More people need to listen to NPR, because it rocks. Ditto for the Daily Show.

notapipe @ May 31 2003, 01:31:58 UTC No news is good news, the Draco Malfoy result set

In crunching the numbers I came across an interesting abberation. Someone had answered the news questions and not the last question. This mystified me, but when I checked the voting rolls, it was revealed to me.

The person who had answered the news questions and not the last question was potterstinks. He doesn't read/listen to/watch any news (which was news to me, though I can understand why he doesn't read the Times). And he didn't mention if JH and PS were beyond friendship.

No answer is a good answer, if you ask me. \m/
