Update Season VIII - "Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!"

[Kitteh]

The gif levels in this thread are approaching critically low levels.

Good Saturday Night!  It is approaching 23:30 and I will be hitting the sack just on the other side of midnight.  My eyes are starting to fade, but there is still something I need to do before I go to bed.  4 days, kids, 4 days.

Say no more friend, I get ya.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I wonder what he watches now that he's cancelled his porn subs?

[Lief 🗽]

I guess he just types in "sex.com" and hopes for the best, since apparently they don't have google search in Oklahoma yet.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Haha!  It is Sunday Morning, so I'm pleased to say that I will be in Kenya THIS WEEK!!

Since Sunday is the first day of the week, it makes sense.

You're still only 10 minutes closer to Kenya than you were 10 minutes ago.  So don't get too excited.

Hey Bushie - you've mentioned that in Kenya you are supposedly going to be eating lentils and stuff like that, right?

So when you're over there, ask to volunteer in the kitchen. Learn how to make these foods. And then keep making them when you are back home.

Haha, I had to create the power point for church this morning.  It wasn't a 'brief relaxation'.

Your homework assignment is to post 3 gifs a day here when Bushie is in Kenya, to tell his story via pictures. [/professor]

Can I also add that Update is now generating ~500 posts a week(?!?)?  Since Dave doesn't want us to keep threads going longer than ~2000 posts anymore, we now face the prospect of a new Update season every month.  Or is the new pace of posting a fluke?  I really don't know how it suddenly got so active.

EDIT: Looks like this furious posting rate has been going on since February (the month that Bushie announced his return to OK), and we have in fact been averaging one season a month since then:

I was just thinking about that the other day.  Is there anything we can do to kind of slow it down a bit short of locking it?

Yes, you could stop posting.

Maybe I could change the story line.  It generates 500 posts a week or so, 450 of those at least are diet related.  If my viewers will let me, I could try to change the story line that doesn't generate 90% of the Update.

Start posting about something like 19th century French literature, and I'm sure the number of responses will go down.

Wouldn't that be essentially locking the thread?

[politicus]

Japanese 18th Century literature might be better, that way at least Nathan will post in it.

But seriously. Just drop the diet stuff unless you decide to actually start eating healthy food. Otherwise its just an opportunity for trolling and teasing.

[Insula Dei]

I dunno 19th sentury French literature is quite a broad topic, might be interesting for a secondary story-line. Maybe Bushie could start reading a lot of Huysmans and post his reflections on A Rebours or Là-bas? That would be rather interesting.

[WalterMitty]

so bushie...what is the excuse for not walking today?  wildfires in colorado?  church day?  iranian election?  dad said you can walk on tuesday instead?

They even have it as audiobook so he doesn't need to do da nasty thing and actually read it.

We could politely ask Inks to consolidate his rebuttals into one post. He has a habit of making several posts at once when he takes issue with what people have said. Cutting and pasting the quotes isn't that hard.

Well, it makes sense. Its a lot easier to change the story line than changing his life.

The fact that he views this all as "seasons" with "story-lines" is slightly disturbing and shows he just doesn't get it but that's not news I suppose.

[Lief 🗽]

Yes Bushie, you can stop posting about the diet. If/when you start eating healthy food, please inform us, but until then we don't really care that you're only drinking a diet soda with your cheeseburger and fries.

The suggestion to learn to cook Kenyan food while you're in Kenya is also a very good one.
