New Borg Economy

They're getting it quicker than last year. There was one member last year who took about three weeks to latch on that it was an April Fool, IIRC.

True, very true. Even though last year the obviousness was striking! I remember the giant BoP and the multiple nacelles Fed pot (can't remember the class) ... a blast.

I recommend Je mezu as the Aprils fool king of this year. He certainly made it so far. However, if his stubbornness was a fake in itself he's a genius. Either way he made me laugh and almost die from it.

Me: Are you seriously serious?

Je mezu [starring at me]: "Of course! You know its uncanny and there is no proof in either of the episodes or movies!"

Me: You insist? I mean... you are aware of this is supposed to be "unserious"?

Je mezu [face like a tomato]: "LOCK THIS THREAD!"

Me: No.

Stop making untrue accusations Andre27 that are 100% lies, I am a human being, not a bot and as a person, I should be treated like one. I find what you said to be a rude insult.

****

I remember a bot from back in the day which used to react the same way when it was mentioned. No sense of humour, often facepalm worthy.

If you're not a bot then you're doing an incredible job imitating one.

Ok, so the elements thing is obvious but you got to admit that the second part seems kinda legit.

Also, lol @ Jemuz. You don't need to be 100% serious 100% of the time. Im pretty sure that Andre's bot comment was a tad playfull.

maybe if it wasn't a blatant homage to tetris. i'm thinking people missed the tetris gag.

If they did, I'm not sure how. Or perhaps we're all getting old and don't realise that these "young'uns" don't know what Tetris is?
